Banks Can, and Often Do, Keep You From Joining Class-Action Lawsuits—What Can Be Done
Did you know that banks in the U.S. can use clauses buried in fine print to prevent you from bringing disputes over unfair fees to court?

Tell them you want the right to participate in class-action lawsuits and hold banks accountable: http://pew.org/29lJPf2.
