The problem with them is they force another prompt, which takes time to read, comprehend, and respond to.
Prompt #1: Credit/Debit?
Prompt #2: PIN
Prompt #3: Would you like cash back
Prompt #4: The total is $xx.xx, ok?
This is time consuming, particularly for people who aren't as comfortable with electronics and pressing buttons. And on top of that, many times the terminals themselves are slow.
Pay-at-the pumps are even worse
Prompt #5: Are you a fuel perks member?
Prompt #6: Receipt yes/no?
Prompt #7: Would you like a car wash?
and they're often even slower, the buttons are often hard to press, or don't register a beep and have a delay before the machine responds, so you wind up pressing the same one twice. And most lack a 'backspace', the screens suck, man don't get me started....lol
