        What is the difference between fee and fare?

This is an amount of money that you need to pay just for them to travel to your home and assess the problem. Also if you go to a bank to change money from one currency to another, there may well be a fee for this service.
So what about fare? Well, generally speaking, fare is only used for transport. A fare is payment for a trip on a bus, ship, taxi or train. The passenger pays a fare on public transport. So it's correct to say bus fare but not bus fee. Some examples for you are.
What's the bus fare from here to the city centre?
If you travel between 10 am and 3 pm, you can get half price train fares in April.
I don't have enough money for the taxi fare home.
So Reza, should I charge you a fee or a fare for my professional advice about English grammar? Yes, I'm sure you've got it by now, a fee of course.
