Went in to Dunnes tonight. Whipped out the old American Express Blue card to get my 13 cents back and was told that they now require ID for all non chip cards.
The card is quite the pain the rear, you're always getting the "we don't accept that card" line and my chip mastercard is a lot easier to use. It put a few bob in my pocket once a year which is why I persisted.
My primary usage is at Dunnes, and I'm not going to produce ID every time I want to buy milk! I'll call Amex aka BOI tomorrow and give out stink but I'm sure it won't get me anywhere. I reckon I'll just cancel the card, which they probably want me to do anyhow.
