My brother is an federal judge and we have had several long deep conversations regarding this matter.... He says, that since VISA AND MASTERCARD makes the policy and Advertises these policies, it is their job to enforce them. If you complain and they fail to take steps to correct the problem, they can be suited, most like a class action... for example.. soppose i grab my visa card and rush to the pharmacy to get some heart medication, because im deadly ill, and the pharmacy refuses to sale me the medication, because i didnt bring my id with me... and i previously complained about this very same merchant, and allowed enough time for VISA/MASTER TO investigate and take action. And I die.... or get very ill, due to the fact that i didnt have my medication. VISA AND MASTER CAN BE LIABLE.

 

my brother told me some similar cases. I would have to prove of course that, VISA AND MASTER failed to communicate with the merchant warning them, etc... and thats easy, just by having a court order the release documents from the merchant....

 

alot of legal stuff, but i get the point

The merchant could be held liable too. I think a jury would see something wrong when the clerk withheld life-saving medicine because someone forgot their ID.

I could also see the pharmacy claiming... "We didn't know who this person was. We could have been giving someone else life threatening medicine.".

I go to the pharmacy to get prescriptions... I have NEVER been asked for ID.

 

Also if the are IDing for the medicine, they would ID *CASH* customers too... just like how stuff with psuphedrine you need to show ID and be age 18+ ... they ID you if you pay cash.

Good. I have. Not often, but it's happened.

Duh! The point was that they might use 'safety' as an excuse to avoid any blame, regardless if it were true or not.

I've had friends/relatives pick up prescriptions for me before because I was too sick to go and get them myself. I think this is probably a fairly common practice so I doubt very highly the pharmacy would say much about it.

 

For the record, I did give the person who was picking up the scripts my health insurance card so they had that at least.

what happens if you present a signed card and the cashier asks for ID because the signature on the receipt does not match the signature on the card?

[Lucky225]

I was almost arrested for not showing ID with my signed card at IHOP:

Does anyone have a copy of the Visa violation form? I ran into two merchants yesterday that required minimums!

[Continental]

In addition to VISA/MC, be sure to report minimum purchase violations to CAMP as well:
