This would be illegal some places.

I believe this is illegal if its in the UK. The EU introduced regulations a few years ago banning fees for credit card payments. As a consumer it was great because lots of businesses were taking the mick charging more than they have to pay but knew people really prefer credit cards. I think this method of trying to get around that is in fact illegal because you are effectively charging more for credit card payments.
