Recently, I have encountered two separate movie theaters with the policy of, "No Credit Cards." I can understand the rational behind only accepting debit, the beef I have with that policy is that they disclaim their failure for offering choice to their customers with "there is also a $2.00 fee" - once I hear that I simply pay for my movie and cross them off my ever so short list of tolerable theaters. <br/><br/> My experience yesterday was one that blew me away; I was told that they only accept debit, everything other than Bank of America and Wells Fargo... that sounds a bit ridiculous... when one in three dollars passes through BofA alone each day what are the odds of a person having a debit card that is something other than either of those? I mean when you customers have only a Wells Fargo and BofA card you should just let them in for free.
