If you're going to tack on cashback at your local Kroger grocery store, you will start seeing a fee tacked on for the perk.
Like using a foreign ATM, the grocery chain is adding at least a 50-cent fee for debit card cashback transactions, WXIX reported.
The amount will increase in steps depending on how much cash you ask for.
Really @kroger ??? This is customer service and your saving a me trip to the ATM?? No favors here.. The trip will be to @GiantEagle from now on. #perkofbeingaloyalcustomer pic.twitter.com/NqfkbVFlp6

For an amount 99 cents and under, there will be no fee. For an amount of $99.99 and under, the fee will be 50 cents.
For amounts between $100 and $150, the fee will be $1.50. For $150.01 to $300 it will cost you $3.50. , WXIX reported.
The fees were instituted because banks charge Kroger a fee, according to a tweet by company officials in response to customer complaints.
We are sorry to hear about your feelings about the cashback fee! We have a fee due to banks & other retailers raising ATM fees & limiting the amount of cashback. We want to offer our customers a convenient, low cost, way to get their money. We hope you understand!
