The CRTC disallowed Telus from doing this, but every merchant not covered by the CRTC is now allowed to disregard any "best price" clause in their credit card agreements.
I expect the first merchants to take advantage of the new rules will be some of those Mom & Pop stores that currently have the "minimum $10 for credit card" signs.
Did the CRTC disallow or say they couldn’t until a review or hearing was complete? I thought they just delayed (for now)
The first merchant I observed taking advantage of the law was the RCMP, for what it's worth.
Utilities and government groups have always seemed to have extra fees for credit cards.
