I have recently returned from Florida, this may be in other states as well.
After swiping my credit card at a pump near Miami, I was prompted for a Zip code, well, being from Canada and only having a postal code, I had to go inside to pay. My question though, are credit card systems so advanced that they can confirm your mailing area? Or is this just "trying" to limit stolen card use?
I have no problem with security procedures that I can understand by the way.
