Lucius • 09/11/26 05:05 PM ET
Probably the same reason the US is so far behind on many things.
Jimmy Jazz • 09/12/26 12:01 AM ET
But credit card fraud impacts the banks more than the customers.
Lucius • 09/12/26 08:51 AM ET
It has more to do with credit card fee regulation in my opinion
Toolie92 • 09/12/26 09:16 AM ET
But that doesn't answer why the bank wouldn't want you to use...

Hard to imagine the dealer is making much off of extended warranties...
