CREDIT CARDS - We accept MasterCard,
and Visa.
DEBIT CARDS - We accept Maestro and Delta.
A few categories of business attract fees for the use of credit cards
(payment
for standing order new issues, purchases of postage material (new or
second-hand),
and purchases of currency). In these cases we charge 1.9% surcharge for
MasterCard/Visa, and 18p per transaction for Switch/Delta. The
majority
of normal transactions are not surcharged.
SECURITY of payments. The sending of credit/debit card details
to us
is done at your own risk. Generally speaking, such information
transmitted
to us by post or telephone is pretty secure, and by e-mail there is
some potential for
problems. We have not encountered any e-mail infiltration, but as this
is most often done by hackers with equipment which can recognise the
normal
attributes of credit card information, the best thing to do is to hide
the information.
For example, rather than send a simple string of numbers, turn some
of the numbers into words (e.g. 6 9 four seven, five 5 5
five,
and so on), or stick some odd words in amongst the numbers (e.g.
six nine four seven Robert five five five five Murray, and so on). We
are
happy to accept numbers in words in English, French, German, or Danish.
PLEASE ALSO TELL US the last seven digits printed on the signature
strip
on the reverse of your card, and confirm that the address you give us
is
the same as the address to which your credit card is registered. (If
the
address is different, please give us a note of that address also, but
make
it clear which is to be the delivery address.)
