Yes it should be accepted wherever the Visa sign is displayed.

Indeed, If Starbucks are taking Visa they should be taking Visa Delta as
well, If they choose not to im sure this is against Visa Scheme rules.

What about VISA Electron?
Is it also against "Visa Scheme rules" not to take that, if taking VISA?

I remember trying to get shops which accept Switch to accept my card
even if the amount I'm spending is less than £10 or £5 etc but they
never listen. I think these sorts of rules are waived if it would lose
the acquirer a new client.

I think Visa Electron is slightly diffrent as it is "acceptable for
eletronic transactions only." where as Visa Credit and Visa Debit (aka Visa
Delta) are "acceptable for both electronic and paper transactions" (Source
Barclaycard Business Procedure guide).

And in Balclaycard Merchant Terms and Conditions For: All Card processing
Agreement June 2004 it says "3.3 Accepting cards" "(a) You must accept all
cards as payment"

Similarly:-

"I think Visa Debit (Delta) is slightly different as it is 'a debit card'
whereas Visa Credit is 'a credit card'." !!

.... which could simply mean that each retailer will need to make sure that
they can cope with Visa Electron, if they wish to accept any Visa cards.

Its a debit card, so thats probably why. I've seen plenty of places that
dont take debit cards for small value transactions.
