Just open a new account switch everything over to that account

New account, take your name off the current one. pack up and move on

As someone who's bad with money even I understand minimums. Have a frank talk with her and if she still doesn't get it do what my partner had to do to me. Put her on a budget. She'll hate it but if you're both in it for the long haul she'll be thankful you did it

U fail. You don't need a joint account. You do not need her to come with you. You can close it anytime... I work in banking and see things like this all the time.

sorry but I kinda think you deserve it. why do you have a joint account with your gf. Thats something I think is better to do when youre married.

She just completely flunked one of the most important tests one could have for a prospective life partner. Dump her and get out while you still can. NOW. Don't ever get hitched with someone who is incapable of even basic money management. Even if you open a different account that only you have access to and deposit your paycheck there, she'll totally take it out on you whenever she blows through her own funds and you refuse to cover the shortage.

You could always tell her that you want to switch to a bank with no minimum/fees and that you need to close the current one first. Then when you open the new one you could either put her or on it or not. Either way, if it upsets her, I don't understand why you would want to long-term with someone like that...

Ok so why don't you just switch to a bank that doesn't have a minimum balance? You can keep the account joint,

My husband and I, happily married since two year, each one of us has his own bank account, if case i needed extra money he would give me, ( i also have one of his visa with me all the time) , and we both work

That's what you get for opening a an account with your GIRLFRIEND.
