Essential Official Random Thoughts Thread (Ladies only)

Ok ladies consumer news you should know.

Please pass this on. I work with small business owners and they are the reason this shyt is in effect. Hope you all walk right the fukk out of a business that wants to do this.

As of yesterday merchants are now allowed to charge you a surcharge for using your CREDIT card. They cannot charge for you using your DEBIT card. If they do or are now you should turn them in to VI/MC/DISCV/AMEX/JCB. There are ten states that are not allowing this practice. Then ten are as follows: CA, CO, CT, FL, KS, ME, MA, NY,OK, & TX.

I will be back with more information as it comes in the office.

Who is "they"?

And the price of almost everything has gone up... doesn't have anything to do with these transaction fees.

Stores. The credit card processing fees have always existed stores just pass the fee onto the prices. It's just now the individual is seeing the fee.

It does actually. It's mostly small businesses that do it. Raise prices to cover transaction fees and interchange fees.

If they can't afford to take cards they should take cash or check. Been telling these dumb bastids this for over 2 years.

They been calling all day about the surcharge fees.

I been saying to them "good luck keeping your customers".

Dare someone to charge me a fee. I will whip out my checkbook and hold up the line writing a check the old fashion way. Or walk out that bytch like

I can see how it would affect small businesses, but like you said, if they don't want to pay the fees, have other payment options.

I don't frequent many small business, so my pocket wouldn't get hurt too badly, and I only use my credit card for major purchases. I will also whip out my checkbook in a heartbeat LOL

Oh, I do... I generally frequent the same online shops/brick and mortar stores, and I haven't been charged a transaction fee yet, but if I start noticing something, I'll probably look for somewhere else to shop.
