The Democracy Movement recalls that as early as July 3, he had pointed out various issues:
- The transfer 850 ATM to a third company (Cashflex) without prior notice to the citizens.
- Her cooperation Piraeus Bank With the new company, from which it continues to make profits.
- The charge 1.5 € per transactionin addition possible supply by the bank itself.
- Cashflex’s misleading presentation as independent, despite maintaining a percentage and functional connection with Piraeus.
Had requested, in particular:
- Investigating the Consumer lawyer for the transparency and legality of practices.
- Adoption Supply For ATMs of Third Parties.
- Creation Network free ATM per geographical area.
- Explicit update and consensus of the citizen in every business transformation that affects his access to his money.
The Democracy Movement points out that the government simply states that it is “monitoring the matter”, avoiding answering whether it will ensure free withdrawals for all citizens, whether it will intervene in the oligopolistic structure of the ATM market and impose real transparency and compulsory information on such transfers.
Finally, the Democracy Movement states that it does not suffice in communication statements and will continue to push for specific arrangements, with the focus of supporting citizens.
