You mean over the counter purchases or on-line? I don't know what they mean. Online, I assumed, but not sure. But in the UK the practice appears to be spreading." Does that affect, say, airlines? An EU-wide directive would be quite attractive IMO... Well, AirBerlin certainly applies a service charge for Etix credit card purchases. Let's not even mention Ryanair.
