So even the Visa and Mastercard regulations are the same as anywhere in the world they are not above the local law.

Of course, I believe that is just as much against the agreement as taking it without the signature. Now I sign all of them the second they are activated. For the above reasons in the post as well as not having one rejected anywhere because it's unsigned.

They will point to a notice that's on the counter and stare at the person until he presents another form of payment regardless of having an ID with that unsigned card. I've watched this scene more times than I care to count since it tends to hold up the line even more!
