What is the name of your state? Ma
Hello, I was under the impression that a service person couldn't ask you for an ID when you went to pay with a credit card say at CVS or any store??? Well, I am a manager/bartender at a Pub. My owner told me last night that a few credit cards have come back because the person didn't sign them and they said it was not them who ate and drank at our establishment. OK, I understand they didn't sign the slip, even though it had been ran through our machine. He says he is out the money but I believe it was because they didn't sign the slip. If it was signed then the customer would have to deal with the bank, I think.
Now he is telling me that when a person asks for the check and hands me a credit card, other than the usual process of checking signatures, he says we have to ask for an ID also. Is this a legal procedure? I think not but I may be wrong. I think people may be offended and I know that nobody ever asks me for my ID when I pay with a credit card. What do you guys know about this?
Thanks in advance**************.didn't know where to begin to find this answer other than calling a credit card company itself.
