These Are the Fees Americans Hate Most
Fees can outrage people -- they're often not listed in the price of an item or service, but you have no choice but to pay them. Sure, those concert tickets cost $100 each, but with the various fees tacked on by the seller, you have to spend a fair amount more.
It's hard, if not impossible, to avoid fees. Nearly three-quarters of Americans (74.5%) paid shipping fees for an online order in the past year and 52.8% paid ATM fees, according to a new survey commissioned by Fund Rocket, a company that offers business funding. The company surveyed 1,018 people weighted equally by gender and with an average age of 37.4 years.
Fees bother people largely because they're tacked on after you consider the cost of a purchase. Not all fees, however, are created equal. Some bother people more than others.
