Dear ACB / CCB members:


As you know, ACB, CCB, and BSCB, along with AFB, have worked with many of the country's largest retailers to ensure that blind shoppers can privately and independently enter their PIN when use a debit card or other PIN-based card.  To make sure our agreements are working as they should, it would be great to hear from people around the country about their experiences with POS devices during the month of December, especially at the following stores:


CVS Pharmacy
Target Stores
Best Buy 
RadioShack
Staples




In California, because of a unique law, every register in the store should have a tactile keypad attached.  In other parts of the country, there will be varying number of devices depending on the store, but all staff should be trained about where the tactile keypads are located. 


Please send any feedback to Linda and Lainey by email at LF at LFLegal.com or by phone (toll free) at 1-800-822-5000


Thanks, Lainey and Linda
