| #6 a2U - Regards #4, indeed, usury is forbidden - so they call them "fees" and there is (believe it or not) a box you check on your bank account application that says something like, "Do you wish the Bank to pay you fees for the balance held in your account, payable..." [ ] Yes [ ] No At least that's how they handled it in Saudi at Saudi British Bank, where I had to go, monthly, to collect my pay back in '92. The "fee" back then was a 3% APR on any balance held more than 30 days. Prolly handled similarly everywhere in Islam where they must deal with Westerners. |
