And I've seen signs at fuel stations, saying that they would charge 50 cents or so, if the customer wants to use debit/credit card and the total amount is less than 15 euros. If this is true, they are either in breach of their contract, or they have some exemption written into. Ryanair and others charge extra if one pays with some credit cards. And many airlines charge different fees depending on the type of card used- e.g. maestro instead of mastercard. Even some rail companies do this in the UK. -- (*) of the royal duchy of city south and deansgate www.davidhorne.net (email address on website) "The fact is that when I compose I never think of and never have thought of meeting the listener." -George Perle (RIP 2009) |
