In this eye-opening episode, we dive deep into the seven hidden tactics banks use to exploit their customers and maximize their profits. From the subtle ways banks profit off your savings to the various fees that seem to appear out of nowhere, we reveal the strategies that financial institutions don't want you to know about. You’ll learn how banks manipulate the order of your transactions to trigger costly overdraft fees, and how they use fine print and confusing terms to make money off you without your awareness.
