Sure, banks have multiple revenue streams. They charge merchant fees per transaction, interest on outstanding debt, administration fees for some open accounts, interest on outstanding debt, etc.
I'm not saying I agree with all these fees or like the banking industry, but we can't just ignore some revenue streams because others exist. They all add up to a banks quarterly financial statements, and if one goes down they will do everything they can to make up for it in other areas.
