微信提现手续费下限调为0.01元,客服称7月25日进行了更新
Qi Lu Wan Bao· 2025-08-01 07:40
近日,有网友发帖称:微信提现手续费下限调为0.01元。对此,腾讯客服表示,7月25日进行了全量更新。单笔服务费小于0.01元的,最低按照0.01元收取。 此前,"微信零钱"中的简介显示,单个身份证终身享有1000元免费零钱提现额度。超出额度后按提现金额的0.1%收取服务费,单笔最低0.1元/笔。 目前,腾讯客服小程序中的《关于零钱提现收费规则的说明》显示,2016年3月1日起,同一身份实名下的账户(包含身份证、护照等实名证件)共享有1000 元免费提现额度(指提现金额)。超出额度后按提现金额0.1%(千分之一)收取服务费,当服务费不足0.01元时,则按照0.01元收取。零钱余额≤0.01元时提 现不收服务费。 记者注意到,部分用户反映,微信手续费提现机制存在不合理之处。按此前标准,每笔最少收0.1元,也就意味着,用户在微信提现累计超过1000元后,即 便每次只提现0.01元,手续费仍然是0.1元,提现100元,手续费也是0.1元。 对此,有网友发出质疑:"那我以前交的手续费算什么?""提现手续费真的很离谱!"
