IHOP Killeen TX Complaint -- Almost Arrested

May 7, 2008

IHOP complaint by Lucky225

MasterCard's Merchant Rules prohibit merchant's from requiring identification to process a credit card transactions on signed credit cards. After dining at IHOP I provided my MasterCard for payment and was asked for ID, which I declined. They asked for another form of payment as their "policy" required ID. I told them I had no other form of payment and was threatened with arrest for 'dine and dash' and 'theft of service.' Until my wife finally paid. Unacceptable, Merchant should know the rules.

Are you really that infantile that you must "prove" you are right by nearly getting arrested? How hard would it have been to hand over your ID? Pick your battles, dummy.

You are joking right????It is your credit card company that that says " if the card is not signed.. you must ask for Identification"You should be gratefull that your local IHOP is looking out for you.. because clearly.. you are NOT!
