Credit service shuts down payments on all gun purchases

[Steal2B]

Several gun-related businesses were suddenly — and without warning — disrupted in recent weeks when Intuit stopped processing credit card payments because sales were gun-related, The Post has learned.

Some of the payments stopped didn’t even involve firearms, but simply T-shirts and coffee mugs and gun safety classes, according to small business owners.

As a result, the businesses had to scramble to track down customers to get them pay their bills after Intuit credited back to customers’ accounts the purchases — even if the T-shirt was already shipped or the class already taken, one businessman told The Post.

Gunsite Chief Operating Officer Ken Campbell said Intuit’s credit card processing arm, Quickbooks, had decided it was “immediately ceasing all business with them. Why? Because they sell and promote firearms.”

Cash is King my friends. Fuck those credit card companies! I use credit cards as little as possible. If I need to pay for a large purchase, gun related or not I’ll transfer what I need into my checking account and pay for it that way or just withdraw the cash.

That should be illegal and they should sue them. You can’t credit back people’s money for no reason and leave the retailer high and dry. Screw that.

TurboTax is a part of Intuit, right? As they say vote with your dollar. I’ll be canceling my account with them.

Dear Intuit, I believe you are in Breach of Contract. When a Small business signs up with you and YOU AGREED TO PROCESS their transactions, you pretty much knew what the retailer was selling. Unless you specifically had a clause in the contract, you can't simply stop transactions because you're butt hurt

Business is not a place for emotions. All they are doing is opening the door for another company to pick up the slack.
