Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Depending on the type of tariff, you may not get back what you paid for; can be an abusive value and this could economically affect your income and finally tariif is not a good thing to pay, as bank tariif that, most of time, they force us to pay without even asking for this discount on our account. I think that these are two (in this case I wrote three) disadvantages of a tariff.
