The St. Vincent and the Grenadines government is expressing concern at the taxes being imposed by banks on customers, particularly those using the automated teller machines (ATM).<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Finance Minister Camilo Gonsalves said that the financial institutions operating here were \u201cripping off Vincentians in the use of ATM cards\u201d and his ministry is still gathering data on the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Finance Minister Camillo Gonsalves<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Gonsalves said he also intend to meet with bank officials to discuss the situation.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut if the conversation doesn\u2019t yield results, we will have to go to a legislative route in this regard and I just want to alert the public and the banks on this particular issue,\u201d he told reporters.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Gonsalves said that the charges run the gamut from \u201cacceptable to unacceptable and I have been gathering information on these issues and the information shocks the conscience\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said St. Vincent and the Grenadines is \u201cthe most cash-dependent nation in the Caribbean\u201d and that the island has \u2018fewer ATM machines, fewer bank branches, fewer credit cards, fewer digital points of sale than our neighbouring countries\u201d.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

He said earlier this year he had held \u201cquiet\u2019 talks with the banks on the ATM issue and that among his inquiries were the small numbers of ATMs and why are there so many places that only take cash or cheque payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said the banks informed that it is \u201csomething peculiar about the Vincentian psyche, that Vincentians want to come in with their cheque book and they want to fill out the forms and so on, they want somebody to write on their little stubs and so on.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

But the finance minister said he rejected that argument.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI don\u2019t accept that we are so different from Grenadians or St. Lucians or Bajans or Antiguans that we feel a need to stand up in a bank line. I am sure that people will be happy to use ATMs and I encouraged them at the time to increase the number of ATMs and to make it more easy for people to get their money without going into a bank.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gonsalves said that ober the past few weeks people have been sharing with him screenshots showing a bank charging as much as two per cent of the value of a withdrawal if it is done at another bank\u2019s ATM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said in one instance, a customer was charged in excess of EC$50 (One EC dollar=US$0.37 cents) for an EC$2,000 withdrawal, because the ATM used did not belong to the bank to which the customer belonged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo two per cent of $2,000 is $40 plus another eight dollars \u2026 plus another eight dollars You are up to $56 to take your own money out of your account. That can\u2019t be right. It can\u2019t be right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnd the idea that you have to charge someone a percentage of what they are withdrawing certainly shocks my conscience. It\u2019s one thing to say there is a fixed fee\u2026 people will find an equilibrium; they will decide what they are comfortable with but to charge someone a percentage of what they are withdrawing and such a high percentage is shocking,\u201d Gonsalves said, adding that the modus operandi of banks is to charge people \u201ca whole set of fees\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gonsalves said he had also discussed the issues with the Governor of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB) Timothy Antoine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am still compiling the data. Not all of the banks have responded to me but I have sent a questionnaire to all of the banks and from the credit union to the banks themselves, and they have been sending me what they do. And none of what they do now is currently illegal but we will have to make it so if we cannot have a useful and productive conversation with the banks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI hope that people can vote with their feet. If one bank is out of whack in terms of fees, hopefully, customers would migrate to another bank, but, at the same time, some of these fees are very high and the promises that were made to the Ministry of Finance at the beginning of the year about increasing the number of ATM access points around the country, there have been no ATM machines added in the nine months since we had that conversation \u2014 not one,\u201d Gonsalves told reporters.<\/p>\n
