Not nice either for someone who might struggle to get any more credit and only has a Mastercard currently.
Ultimately you don't need to accept Mastercard or any payment if you do not wish too. It is a bit rubbish- I notice Lloyds TSB advertising- will it only be Visa cards from them and HBOS then? :think:
For example car dealerships refuse to take credit card payments altogether (or charge a percentage to cover the commission.) This is fair.
Not everywhere accepts Amex due to the size of the commission they charge. Not quite as fair, but understandable.
But to refuse Mastercard on the grounds of Visa being a sponsor?

I didn't know that but I believe that's equally as wrong.
Soundss like a bit of tit-for-tat going on somewhere.
