So I went back to the unbranded Pony Express and tried my MC in Android Pay and it said to "insert card" again even though NFC is indeed enabled MC/Visa doesn't actually work due to poor POS programming. Here is a picture of the screen: http://imgur.com/F6U12Ko same as Passport Mobil, but Mobil accepted MC ctls and I never tried Visa so I won't know for a awhile. At Pony Express I used a chip card since that was the only thing that worked. I went to an Arby's with the old Panasonic dos registers and they have a separate FD130 duo with FD30 pinpad with EMV and NFC but just like my local Arby's did it prefers the common debit AID and forces pin on all debit cards. Then I went to an unbranded Commander station called Leeds a former Shell but now unbranded with Ruby2 or CI with brand new MX915's and older pumps. The surprise came when I got my receipt it actually says RFID for the Entry Method and has a bunch of extra info I've never seen at a Commander place. Here is a picture of the receipt: http://imgur.com/RnBphsU what does R Data even mean? I also saw that Kum & Go has FlexPay IV at some pumps but only new ones and no NFC readers outside of course but they are pretty anti-contactless as they have had it off inside since like November 1st 2014. I then went to a Gilbarco Passport BP that seemed to have just got brand new pumps, a brand new POS system with MX915 and did not even accept cards yet. They previously used Passport with MX850 with a ctls reader and no chip slot. Also here is a picture of a pump: http://imgur.com/91ogTjE FlexPay IV with no NFC of course unless BP doesn't support it at the pump?
