 Fees are only for instant withdrawals. This just reminded me to withdrawal to my bank. It will be there on Monday, with zero fees. Lightning fixes this.

 Well my venmo, when I had it, was tied not to a bank account but to a chase card. Chase attacks venmo xfers with a fee and interest AND a lifetime xfer limit  of about 2k
