Interwetten blows me for inactivity fees without giving me a headsup!

My first question is, how long had the account been inactive?

I've noticed a few 'account maintenance' fees being added to terms of service, helado patata. It's lame if they changed their rules and didn't even try to get in touch with an account holder from where I sit, but almost all books include the disclaimer about changing rules without prior notice in the original terms of service.

If your contact info was current and they did not even send you an email, I'd call foul.

I would speak with my wallet and remove all funds immediately. F!@# an inactivity fee......thats stealing. Plain and simple thievery. Smart books probably make interest off most of the liquidity pooled so to invent fees to steal more is not good.

This concept seems weird. You "save" money at their place and get 0 interest. This alone is bad, but when you start getting negative interest that's horrible.
