so this place said there is a $10 min for CC. my meal came out to 9.96 and the guy said its a 10 min. I told him that 4 cents isn't much, so he asked if he can charge me 10 flat! I should have left a tip of 4 cents, since its worth so damn much to them!

I would have left a 4 cent tip. That is nonsense.

I didn't know that, I thought I remembered something about them not being allowed to charge a service fee for using a CC, but I've been to lots of places with $5 minimums. I mean they get charged on every transaction so I don't mind keeping things even.

/edit Oh and OP, if your meal was 9.96, why didn't you just subtract $.04 from your tip?

How in the hell would you know that? Do you know what restaurant the OP is talking about? Do you know what company that restaurant uses for CC processing? How did you manage to get ahold of the contract between them and read it?

:roll:

Research and learn before you look like an uneducated dick.

While I don't know about debit cards, and I would assume that those are on a per bank issue, ALL major CC companies (ie Visa, MC, amex, discover) state that if someone is to allow usage of their cards, they must allow ALL usage, and not enstate minimums, and it actually is enforced.

They must all ALL usage? Wow. I never knew that they must all all usage.

Anyway, you're full of poop. Unless you can provide a copy of the contract so we can read for ourselves, I'm going to stand my ground that you're full of poop.

Usage charges and minimum charge requirements are two different things. The OP isn't bitching about usage charges, he's bitching about minimum charge requirements.

Pull your dick out of your ass and pay attention.

Because he's not a roaming asshat like you, and actually has a base of knowledge, rather than a base of negative OT flames shooting out his ass.

When this guy owns you, hard, it's going to be great. It would be better if you tried to come back after that, but generally after everyone's seen what an ass you are in a particular thread, you slink away and don't post in it anymore.

I limit my remarks to you and gigapet. As a result, I only have three people on the boards who hate me, whereas you have legions.

Are you quite done, Nancy?
 
Visa Rules

Mastercard rules

Amex rules

Mastercard and Visa specifically state that you can not charge usage OR minimum charges.

Amex says that you can charge minimums, but if you accept Visa or Mastercard, you can not charge for amex since visa and mastercard must be free and that would discriminate.

There, happy?
