“That “discrimination” was per the banking credit card cartel.”
Absolutely, In fact AMEX even sued the industry and merchants for discrimination and unfair practice because merchants refused to take their cards. And I don’t blame merchants for not taking them, I wouldn’t when I was in business. They wanted double processing fees to take their card and I refused to take them. Burning me to give rich people perks. They even threatened to take me to court over it.
Congrats on standing strong!
