Re: AMEX not accepted or surchage
Why I don't like Amex; a real life example.
Visa card fee is 0.83% less than 1%.
Amex fee is 2.75%
Visa gets credited to our account every evening, so I can almost guarantee use of the money next day.
Amex takes 5 days to 1 week before the money is deposited into our account.
We will accept Amex but with a 3% surcharge for the hassle and delay of being credited to the account.
I can understand why other companies charge a service for Amex.
