Only if that is disclosed up front before service. If I’ve already eaten there, its a debt.

Every place I have been that does not accept cash has a sign up front when you walk in. Plus I don’t think it would be a debt, it would be considered a service that was provided.

The second the service has already been provided, it’s a debt. Declining cash if they can’t walk away without owing you anything can never be legal.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
