government must do to implement its surcharge ban which was announced on TuesdayThe government's crackdown on debit card fees will involve a ACCC review into excess card costs, excluding credit cards, in a bid to east cost-of-living pressures.

The government's fresh bid to ban surcharge fees has been met with a double-pronged approach to best avoid the banks stinging customers further down the track.

“It's crazy that we are faced with a situation where consumers are getting slugged every single time they actually pay at the table for anything across any retailer.”
