Nobody should be forced and especially as there is a charge involved, but, I like lots of options.

That is a stupid question anyway. It is asking you what you think and giving you the option of a yes/no answer.

Several card machine company's out there, but you can also get an app for your phone so the app is free and only 1.5% commission

Given the card machines require a SIM and signal, if theres no signal how would the cabbie comply with the legal requirement he accept cards?

and what protects him against malicious chargebacks on fares over £100 on a credit card?
