But the same reasoning still applies. The card issuers don't want you have to show ID, becuase you might decide it's too much trouble, and just use some other method to pay.
Except for Amex, who have always *stringently* required this; I've even seen customer-facing advertising pointing it out. They have to do something to get merchants to take their card with the higher discount rate. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
