Quote from: lucerne 8 May, er!
Think you need to go to Specsavers......
And they want DIRECT access to my bank account!
So 100% of card payers get penalised for a measley 10% non payers?
While 100% of those who switch also get charged a fee BEFORE it's been introduced.
With a million customers switching accounts that' would be a cool £1.5m sucked out of people's accounts...mmmmm
Oooh look what I found....
Quote Rip-off charges imposed by airlines, cinemas and even government agencies when customers pay by plastic are to be investigated.
Banks charge businesses around 10p to process a debit card sale, yet consumers can be charged more than 50 times that amount.
At the same time, firms are accused of profiteering by inflating the processing fee on credit card purchases.
Quote The tactic has been condemned by the banks, which insist charges do not reflect the true cost to businesses. The Visa Europe card group is also ‘completely opposed’.
In the past, companies have blamed banks for the high fees. However, Which? insists that businesses are inflating the charges to fill their own coffers.

Thanks for pointing that out, nadger.
TBH I am uneasy that there appears to be no or an exxtremely slack limit to the time after posting that an entry can be edited. I am willing to belive that the dit was in good faith, nevertheless it damages the trust one can put in forum entries as a whole.
to an equally stupid March, Or has the whiskey soaked Xmas had another go

The poster's post-event comment was accompanied by (unqualified) with after the specsavers sentence. Perhaps not to everyone's taste in humour but good enough for me.
