Amazon had previously stated that it would stop accepting payments by Visa in the UK. See, for example, discussion at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29250582 . However, I just received this email:
> The expected change regarding the use of Visa credit cards on Amazon.co.uk will no longer take place on January 19. We are working closely with Visa on a potential solution that will enable customers to continue using their Visa credit cards on Amazon.co.uk. Should we make any changes related to Visa credit cards, we will give you advance notice. Until then, you can continue to use Visa credit cards, debit cards, Mastercard, American Express, and Eurocard as you do today.
