Services charges and fees vary from bank to bank, so it is impossible to say. For example, some banks now implement a charge for mailing paper statements, something that was unheard of until recent years. From what I have seen, those charges range from $4 to $10 a month.
Most banks do not charge any fees for direct debit transactions. Banks who do not charge these fees include most credit unions, Chase, and Bank of America.

The banks that have the lowest transaction costs would be Credit Unions which typically do not charge transaction fees. Other banks such as HSBC have transaction fees that amount to $2.50 per transaction.

Yes. Even CCCS charges setup fees and monthly service fees. Worse, there are scam companies out there that will charge hefty fees for nothing.
The way banks earn money is basically a two-step process. First, banks borrow money from other banks as well as from their depositors. The banks then loan that money out to businesses and people, and charge them a higher rate of interest than they are paying on the money. Banks also earn money by charging fees for services they offer.
U.S. banks don't "steal" money, the government has regulations to keep banks accountable for all money that goes in, out, and towards revenue. People forget that banks are businesses not just giant safes. Banks charge fees for their services to pay their employees and to keep them competative with other banks. By keeping good personal financial records i.e. check registers, online banking, etc. you can: avoid non suffecient funds fees, waives monthly services charges and verify interest in interest bearing accounts.
