.Good ol Kentucky Fried Chicken has a new sign out back that says "
Atm
.as easy as cash!"  So,  I thought KFC might be a good idea for dinner
.tonight, and I pulled in the drive thru  and placed my order.
.When I got the total at the window and handed them my ATM card for
.payment, they said "we are adding a charge of  99 cents to your order
.because you're using an ATM card."   I said to them that they must be
.joking, right?  But they surely were not.
.Many Wendy's restaurants now accept Visa and M/C, and they do not
charge
.you an extra fee just for your ATM card even if it happens to be a
check
.card.
.So, beware KFC's extra charge for using your ATM!
.
.If we complain, they will stop this practice.

Well, you dimbulb, you might consider asking about purchases BEFORE
making them.  As opposed to credit cards which are a fixed percentage
3-4% of purchase, ATM's are flat-rate or a minimum plus a percentage.
They are CASH ADVANCES and if you READ the info that your bank gives
you when you get an ATM card you would know that.  Since KFC is acting
as an ATM they collect the bank fee up front.  

But I really wouldn't expect a wingnut to delve into details and
facts, they don't in their politics or religion: It interferes with
their dinner whines!
