I just took this test and got this right

Answer 2

The correct answer is - one fee, to his own bank.

When a person uses his ATM in banks other than the owners bank, then his own bank charges some fee from his account. This is because his own bank knows about all his transactions. The other bank does not know these and cannot charge a person. So, only one fee is deducted and its also to ones own bank.
