I agree. Almost every bank charges a similar fee to cash a check for non-customers, even if the check was drawn on their bank. So, it is not fair to ask people to stay away from SunTrust, who is operating the same way as the other banks. Also, it doesn't make sense to move your money to another bank that probably has check cashing fees as well. If banks didn't charge these types of fees, I wonder how long they would be able to maintain walk-in branches, which are a convenience for many people.
