These are included in the transaction (as Revolut sees it). This could cause problems when importing into bookkeeping software as the amounts do not match up. This script will not include fees in transactions but insert "fake" transactions for each deducted fee. You will see those transactions separately in your bookkeeping software but in Revolut they are included in the transaction. +- It is specifically built for getting mBank transactions into SnelStart. +- Parses the mBank CSV file and extracts: timestamp, counterparty name, + transaction description, transaction amount, fee amount, balance after + transaction, counterparty IBAN. +- This information is converted into a valid MT940 file. +- mBank charges fees for transactions.
