Amex in ASDA i think works under very mysterious circumstances.
The other after doing my grocery tried paying using my amex, at the self checkout, did not work. The next day tried paying by it again at the tills, and guess what... Just worked fine :j0 -

I did a wee bit of research... turns out that AMEX cards have a different type of chip and pin system, the same on the surface, but different to the card readers. Either way, places have to do extra to accept it, so I wouldn't try it anywhere too old or too cheap (hence Iceland don't)Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature.

Nearly everywhere in Cornwall doesn't take Amex. Frustrating since we were on holiday.
