Ridiculous bank charges
Looking at my options and seeing that you have provided a IBAN and associated data I went to see if this payment method would be better fee wise for pnm. I used PayPal when I joined but recently saw a post from pnm wherein he mentioned PayPal is costly for him.
This transaction is feasible from my online banking portal at the Royal Bank of Canada, this is what they want:
"You will be charged C$13.50 per transaction. Additional fees may be deducted from the sent amount by the destination bank and/or its intermediaries." {this is app 10 euro}
How generous especially considering that I do all the work, well besides my heavy burden on their computer processing (tongue in cheek) I suppose that after the ABN fee there would be nothing left:)
Looks like I will stick with PayPal.
