When you order from amazon.co.uk, you're actually buying from Amazon Luxembourg. UK<->EU card fees are not covered by the cap on fees.

So yes, this is partly a consequence of Brexit. But much more about amazon's tax minimisation strategy.

Nah, both. Amazon did what they did before Brexit. Right or wrong, it's a different story.

VISA took the opportunity afforded by Brexit to impose a massive price hike - and that's the real story.

The fact that UK rules have allowed them to do this is the underlying issue - why had this "beneficial" EU rule been dropped, without discussion? How many others are waiting to come to light?

The expected change regarding the use of Visa credit cards on Amazon.co.uk will no longer take place on January 19. We are working closely with Visa on a potential solution that will enable customers to continue using their Visa credit cards on Amazon.co.uk. 

Should we make any changes related to Visa credit cards, we will give you advance notice. Until then, you can continue to use Visa credit cards, debit cards, Mastercard, American Express, and Eurocard as you do today.

We’ve recently reached a global agreement with Visa that allows all customers to continue using their Visa credit cards in our stores. As a result, we will not move forward with our previous plans to stop accepting UK issued Visa credit cards. To add or update a payment method, go directly to Your account or visit the help page on Add & Manage Payment Methods.

We remain committed to offering customers a payment experience that is convenient and offers choice. Thank you for being an Amazon customer.
