Amazon not accepting VISA credit cards issued in UK

I believe that costs associated with payment should always be an explicit part of the customer&#x27;s bill, so that there would actually be competitive pressure between payment providers to drive down that cost.<p>It would also make it clear to the customer that they are actually paying themselves for those &quot;rewards&quot; on their card.

Most of UK customers are VISA debit card users. To be fair, I was completely convinced, that Master cards are the credit cards and VISA are debit cards... who knew.<p>Anyway - it appears that it is not my problem and I don&#x27;t care.<p>...........&#x2F;\..... \o&#x2F;...

I use Amazon as little as possible, I have always had good service and matched prices elsewhere. If they reject my Barclaycard it will reinforce my view.

I imagine they extract their Prime membership this way too. Are they going to stop that too? Interesting times.

I presume this is Amazon throwing their weight around in some negotiation with Visa?

The title uses the spelling “VISA”. It&#x27;s actually “Visa”, not all-caps.
