What do you think?

 

I'm alway's asked for "ID" when using my VISA or MasterCard.

 

No "ID" walk out empty handed? Why?

 

VISA and MasterCard say otherwise!

Well there you go, no ID needed for AMEX, although it didn't say anything about Discover.

I posted Discover's line at the tail of the Requirement to show ID thread. They do not prohibit requiring ID.

A store that DOES NOT ASK FOR ID FOR VISA/MC/AMEX would not waste their time in asking for ID on ONLY DISCOVERCARD purchases!!!

 

All DISCOVERCARD will do then "IF" you get asked for ID on a purchase is and COMPLAIN...THEY WILL IGNORE YOU!!!

Yes, BUT if one is sticking to one's guns on a purchase they're requiring ID on, you want to KNOW you've got the support of the card network or you'll end up looking like an salamander. Until today I wouldn't be confident about calling the bluff on an Amex purchase.

same here... but if it is a discover card, I would not walk (no rights violated there... but i don't have a discover card)

Doesn't Discover prohibit discriminating against its cardholders?

For example, if ID is not required for Visa/MC (since it is against their policies), then if the merchant also accepts Discover, I thought they can't discriminate against Discover holders by requiring their ID.

I know Visa, Mastercard, and AMEX all have basically the same policy which says that what you do for one, you must do for all - so you can't require ID for say an AMEX purchase if you don't for Visa.

WHAT IS GOOD FOR ONE IS GOOD FOR ALL...

 

A store wouldn't have different rules for just DISCOVERCARD purchases
