Only if it's a business credit card. Personal ones have no surcharge

The DVLA did used to charge extra if you paid by credit card. But not by
debit card. I think that has gone now.

Did wonder if credit cards has reduced their fees to the seller? With
Covid, many places that once would only take cash for a small amount now
take them.

If you don't like cc charges just try paying for something by bitcoin.
The fees appear from nowhere, the value is up and down like a yoyo and
you are working to 8 places after the decimal point so you really have
no concept of the value of the lower places.
