Outlaw Debit Card Minimum's Nationwide

Created by A.H. on December 25, 2016

It's 2016 for heavens sake, the money in my bank should be just as valuable as the money in my pocket. This policy combined with the new chip technology is making checkout everywhere a true nightmare and I feel this is a good starting point. I've had enough of not being able to buy just one item or being pushed to spend extra money on that bag of Habanero Chex Mix I never eat. It is no burden on store owners to accept debit cards and this is simply them taking advantage of the Dodd-Frank Law which allows for Credit Card minimums, but not Debit Card.

The faster you sign and share the faster we'll all be able to enjoy that singular item we're all thinking about in our head right now!!

This is just for DEBIT CARDS.
