WM always took Amex, not just recently??? This Tim Horton's thing is new for them to accept Amex as payment.

Cool

Amex has the highest transaction fees ( to the retailer ) as opposed to Visa and Mastercard , hence very few retailers accept Amex .

I believe even SDM stopped accepting them

SDM did not, they did not like the backlash when the story came out and carried on accepting them (at least they did at the time, I don't have an AMEX to know)

Many retailers ear the charge and do accept them, but they do not advertise them as heavily instore so as not to encourage people to use them

I don't shop SDM anymore, but I know they did accept Amex when I used to shop there, as FP said the backlash at the thought of them now refusing that card was too much for them to risk losing some valued customers.
