Laptops Direct Credit Card Surcharge

Just a warning to others.
I just placed an order online with Laptop Direct using my personal credit card and it automatically added a 1% surcharge for using a Mastercard to the order.
I phoned them up and they removed the charge, but still a pain, and I am sure many people are getting caught out by this and letting them get away with it.
