I have been reading this closely, I can understand BOTH sides.
I also run a business from my home, well, actually MY base office is in my 
own home, however the consultants we use are spread throughout NJ and NY. 
My point is, IF I was to arrange to recieve payment by credit card, then 
the amount of the "payments" would have to be much higher! There ARE costs 
to getting a credit card service, even if it is only a "deposit" it is 
still a large amount that I would have to put out.  Yes it is true, it IS 
more "professional" to be able to offer a customer the option of paying by 
credit card, but so far, I haven't had one potential client refuse my 
services because he/she could not!
