Theres no such thing as a free lunch.

We have a €3 charge on our BOC account. But I have not checked what period this covers.

Also have an account with Alpha and have found the document ronk refers to in the original post. It appears that if you want a paper statement you have to pay an additional charge: Section 4.6.1. However, having opted into the paperless system, this will not affect me. Pleased to see that other fees have not changed. However, will be interesting if accounts with other banks introduce this 'account maintenance' fee in the coming months.

Ours was €2, not sure why its more than yours but we only receive 2 statements per year, so €24 seems a bit steep.

Me too, first time I’ve seen a charge since my account transferred to BOC from Laiki! It’s not a lot but I hope it’s not monthly!

When we had a savings account with Alpha, they charged us a maintenance fee annually, I soon moved it back to our UK bank where there was no such charge.

Hellenic are clearly not very accurate when typing figures, so best double check your statements.
