Where do you see businesses accepting debit but not credit cards? I’ve only ever seen it accepting both or neither (in the case of neither, you have to physically mail in a check or link up ACH information). And the only time I see ACH or physical payment accepted is with governmental agencies in the US, because credit/debit costs them money to process while ACH/physical money does not.

I haven’t experienced not taking credit cards, but T-Mobile just got rid of my ten dollar auto pay unless I switch from credit card to debit card.

  Credit card fee’s most likely.

    Probably and I’m perfectly fine with cash or debit only. Screw credit. Just hurts people in the long run

    Depends on the person.
    
    If you’re using credit because you don’t have money, then you’re doing it wrong. Credit only hurts people that don’t understand this.
    
    I put everything on my credit card. I also pay it off every month. So it’s only helped me.

    Depends, my autopay discounts were on Privacy cards, which I now can’t use. So losing a $20/mo discount becuase no way in hell will I give an actual debit card # or checking info to a company that’s going to lose it in their next breach, nor can I control or cancel them at will.

    Its mostly that, but its also the chargeback happy people. Not saying there’s not a time and a place for that, but its rampant when it shouldn’t be.
