i heard that it is illegal to charge someone a different rate, or to add in extra charges if someone pays for something with a credit card VS cash or VS personal check. anyone ever hear this, or know if it's true? i'm sure it varies from state to state, but any info is appreciated.

for example, i'm buying metal from a distributor, and they want to charge me an extra 3% to use a credit card as opposed to cash or check, because the vendor is telling me they LOSE 3% to the credit card companies. not normally a big deal, but this is over $100,000 worth of metal!!

thanks in advance.

I have a company saying that I am using my email name illegally because they have it registered as a trademark. Their website has a copyright of 2004-2006. I have been using my name since the early 90's and have been with yahoo since 2000. The US Trademark Electronic Search System - part of the US patent & Trademark office - does not come up with anything for this name being registered. This compay does not include a persons name to contact to fix this plus they have not given me any proof that I am doing anything wrong. They want me to stop using my email immediately or will take legal action. I said no until I see some proof but should I be worried or does this sound like a hoax?
