DFS arranged for lounge access in the UK? - hope they will continue to improve the benefits to the customer. Still hoping for lounge access at least in FRA and BRU...

Discover is a competing network with MC. This could be a good thing for the survival of DC as the high end counterpart to a Discover Card.
It's now August. Has anyone tried using a Diners Club international card at a Discover merchant in the USA? Does it work?

I have used it on the net, where they showed the Discover logo but not the Diners logo.

Has anyone tried using their Discover Card in Europe where only Diners Club is accepted?
