Warning - Lidl don't take Mastercard :(

Raksha

Took my prepaid Mastercard into Lidl as my new way of keeping to my spending is to transfer my housekeeping to it, only to find they don't accept 'credit cards' Apparently they accept Meastro, but no Mastercard.:mad:

Lidl have never accepted credit cards since they opened in UK, 18 years ago.

Anyone remember back in the day when John Lews and M&S didn't take credit cards?

Certainly M & S, staff acted as if I had committed a heinous crime when I tried to pay by credit card.

I regularly use my CC in both Aldi and Lidl. They take them in Scotland

Even funnier, I remember when people used to carry bits of paper and metal to pay for things :rotfl:

I don't know if any of you have heard of the Jesus Army? It's a big Christian organisation based in Northamptonshire. They own several business one of which is a building materials supplier, I phoned them once to ask the price of something and when I asked if they accepted credit cards they said "no we don't believe in them". As I hung up I thought you may not believe in them but they do exist all the same.:rotfl:
