That's not my takeaway from the article. I read it that the fees are the same, they just want the option of spreading them around to their customers differently. They didn't have that option before.
A consumer group spokesperson says that the fear is that they will use this as an excuse to keep prices the same for cash and debit, and charge even more for credit cards, but I don't think that fits with the real world. Competition will keep prices as low as possible.
