Common Banking Mistakes
Newcomers Make (And How to Avoid Them)
❌ 1. Not Asking About Fees
Some accounts have monthly fees. Ask:
How can I avoid fees?
Is there a free newcomer plan?
❌ 2. Spending Too Much on Credit
Credit is not free money. Only spend what you can pay back.
❌ 3. Ignoring Bank Messages
Read emails and letters from your bank. They often talk about:
Fees
Changes
Important updates
❌ 4. Not Tracking Your Money
Even a simple note on your phone helps:
What you spend
What you earn
What you need to save
💡 Small Reminder
You don’t need to be perfect with money. Just be careful and consistent
