MPs on Wednesday accused banks of profiteering over their charges for certain services like payment of utility bills and transfers between accounts. Members of the House ethics committee were particularly irked after hearing that the charges mostly hurt pensioners and vulnerable groups who have no internet access or live in areas with no bank branches. “Hands off our low-pension parents,” committee chairman, Disy MP Zaharias Zahariou said. “Charge those with money as much as you want (but) don’t bother the low pensioners.”
