No queues at all, why would there be, once the payment is authorised with a PIN payment is done, straight from buyers bank account directly into sellers. what are you waiting 20 seconds for? it should only take a couple. As you have already pointed out the systems do have some differences, you may catch up one day!Thats not how it works in the UK , when a client pays by card they put their pin number in and if its authorised an authorisation number is printed on both copies of the print outs , takes around 10-20 seconds , seller is guaranteed payment and customer walks away with the goods , there must be some very long queues in NZ .
So why did you have to go for a coffee when youd paid a car dealer ?No queues at all, why would there be, once the payment is authorised with a PIN payment is done, straight from buyers bank account directly into sellers. what are you waiting 20 seconds for? it should only take a couple.

It won’t be straight through. Somewhere, someone is taking a cut to pay for the costs of running the machines.straight from buyers bank account directly into sellers
I was thirsty and it was a 5 hour drive home.So why did you have to go for a coffee when youd paid a car dealer ?
thats what I doIt’s quite handy for the payment to be instant when the seller needs to know he has been paid before you take your purchase away. Once bought a car from a dealer, as the dealer was a few hours away from home and not one I had dealt with before he needed to see payment before I could drive the car away, easy, pay with card, go for a cup of coffee, come back, payment gone through, drive home.
There will be a cost somewhere, although this has to be less than the cost of handling cash and cheques, the payment does go straight through and is available funds immediately.It won’t be straight through. Somewhere, someone is taking a cut to pay for the costs of running the machines.
So do you have a merchant account yourself, or are you just guessing?There will be a cost somewhere, although this has to be less than the cost of handling cash and cheques, the payment does go straight through and is available funds immediately.

To be fair, your own posts in this thread aren’t exactly accurate either.He`s making it up as he goes along , clearly.
No been in same family for over 50 yearsIs it newly opened ?
I have more than one merchant account and everything I`ve quoted is exactly how it is with my card processors so maybe you are not that au fait with the systems yourself.To be fair, your own posts in this thread aren’t exactly accurate either.
Get what?He said cheques are no longer used.
His location doesn’t show up on mobile app.
He’s posting on a U.K. forum.
Get it yet.
Get what?
I actually preferred cheques, it was because banks didn't want to provide that service was why they were stopped, and it's a major inconvenience for those with no internet.
Location, if in doubt figger it out.....
So what if it's a UK based forum, it would be pretty fecked if it had no input from outside the UK/real world.

Perspective is merely the view from the point that you stand on, ignore the fact that a person standing next to you or far over the horizon will have a different view even if you are looking at the same point."Over there, foreigners, loads of 'em. Be scared and send me your money"

Who's the guy in the picture???
I`m genuinely concerned about the amount of immigrants turning up in the UK, legal and illegal , the majority come from cultures that are not compatible with British culture , they will never fit in with the way we live and dont want to either , it`ll not end well , well actually it`ll never end ."Over there, foreigners, loads of 'em.
