there is no payment by credit card option listed - only debit card. Does anyone know why this is?
.... because they don't accept payment by Credit Card! ..... primarily because of the cost to them. A lot of internet retailers will accept CCs - because its good for business and they know most customers will only buy by CC - because of the added security.
But in the world of 'bills' - it's a different, but sometimes mixed,story. You can't pay HMRC your tax by CC, for example. But you can normally pay (HMRC) your customs duty that way - at a port etc.If you want to test the depth of the water .........don't use both feet !0 -
My council allow Council Tax to be paid by either Debit or Credit Card.
Utilities only allow debit cards.0
