About time too. I only ever charge what it costs me, 1.9% if you are standing in front of me, or 2.5% if you're paying over the phone,and I don't always charge.

There are those that say you (as a business owner) should just accept those surcharges "as just a cost of doing business". I don't necessarily agree though, a cost of doing business it may be (and card payment is definitely the norm), but the cost has to be built in somewhere.

About time too. The airlines have been slugging us with ridiculous charges.
