New 1.5% charge on deposits for VISA cardholders

bang out of order..may not be a lot but it adds up

I use one of those prepaid cards to keep my gambling money separate.

I'm already charged to top up the card as well as well as the govt. charge every year.

And now I am being charged to use the card.

applehunter,
they screw us all ways with cards now..i went into the shop top of my street yesterday I only had my debit card on me..stuff I wanted came to £3.87..i was charged 75p by the store cos it was under £5!!and the bank took 50p for the transaction?..so it cost me £1.25 to use my card..to by stuff worth 3.87? never get caught out like that again..im not tight but I hate a piss take..the bank is one thing..but shops charging you now..
so bookies getting in on it..

Didn't they do this before and the 1.5% was returned? Accept they have charges but to pay to have a bet is a bit rich.
Tony i,d have said stall on there a minute to yer boyo/wan behind the counter and got something for £1.13.

Really sorry, there's been a technical issue with Irish debit cards today. Any customer charged 1.5% on these deposits will be refunded ASAP

pa,
  I was laughing at the cheek and didn't think ..as I said wont happen again!
thanks for that dan!

Yet another wonky classic I doubt the quarter wit knows if he's betting with his visa, debit, credit, diners club or dunnes stores card

Read the TITLE of the thread you gobshyte , VISA CARDHOLDERS , the ONLY card you hold is a WELFARE one ...

YOU read the title of the thread again ya dummy. What does the first word say? And you're on here 13 YEARS?????????? And while you're at it you'd wanna read Dan's explanation on the 1st at 23.27. It's in dark black so even you can't miss it!

So the question must be asked. How the **** have you been charged a 1.5% commission for 13 YEARS when this was just an error for ONE DAY???!!!!! Yet more attention seeking from this utter fool. And i have the same card as you dopey and have not been charged any commission!!! To say this is baffling is an understatement.

So you are saying that when you deposit with your VISA card you are NOT charged 1.5 % ?.

100% wonks. Although I haven't deposited for a while. If you are, you are being done.

Well I deposited YESTERDAY and was charged the 1.5 and have ALWAYS been charged that rate since I started on here, you myfriend are imo simply a LIAR and chancer.

Visa card deposits are charged at 1.5% as Workrider says.

Visa Debit card deposits are free, but they had an issue with them the other day as outlined above.

Thanks Dan.

Slickster clearly using a debit card.

Why would you use a credit card on here?

Most if not all credit card firms (certainly the likes of Avant Card) will process it as a cash transaction and charge 1.25% or a stated minimum in addition to the incredible interest rates on cash transactions. Adding 1.5% fee on top of that and any interest makes it very expensive. I am not sure how it works in terms of paying the bill, but I think cash transactions are subject to interest straight away rather than allowing a month or so for payment?

Cheers Dan and Temlett for clearing that up. Wonky muddying the waters again poor chap. Not making himself clear again. Get yourself a Visa DEBIT card wonks. Silly fool still stuck in the 20th century

Glad the lads helped you out there Finglas ,does your woman in the dole office know about this or does she let you sign on with it .
