Any business charging extra to customers who pay with a credit card is breaking visa and mastercard merchant guidelines and should be reported (http://www.mastercard.com/us/persona...iolations.html or 1-800-VISA-911).

They can offer a discount for paying by cash but they cannot flat out charge extra for using credit.

grunch - this is not the case in Australia at least. The Reserve Bank of Australia and/or the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission outlawed such clauses from American Express, MasterCard, Visa and others.
