So on March 18, cc surcharges will be capped at "reasonable levels". The average merchant fee for visa is roughly less than 1%. Reckon brothels will follow these new laws?
Sometimes i hate walking upto a brothel to find no cash in my wallet but at the same time hate going to an atm late at night just in case there is a dodgy bastard waiting. I don't mind paying by cc as i have no one to check my statements nor do i mind paying the extra 1%. I hope they have to follow suit as well.
If it's a law they don't have a choice. If it's a guideline then of course nothing will change, they will just do what they want.
Its definitely a rule by the RBA. This should kerb companies like Qantas and Cabcharge gouging customers on CC surcharges. I hope brothels do the same.
I have often wondered how legal charging you 10% is not that I care that much I dont pay by credit card since a friend of mine got found out because he used his credit card ended up costing him a lot devorce etc. And how would you explain all that to the kids?
I think the shop can just say credit card's not accepted if you complain 10% being too much
Same reason why some restaurants don't accept American Express and Diner's Club, their profit will suffer
Do 64 Taren point take credit card, h8 walking around with lots of cash?
