ATM fee changes approved

Lawmakers passed a bill April 18 that changes certain ATM fees.

LB603, introduced by Omaha Sen. Brett Lindstrom, removes a requirement that financial institutions must charge the same automatic teller fees to all other financial institutions.

The bill affects default interchange fees that are charged between institutions during an ATM transaction. It does not change a bank customer’s ATM fees.

Senators approved the bill on a 49-0 vote.
