CVS stops Apple Pay users in favor of ConnectC by MCX

According to Daily Tech, CVS has joined Rite Aid in disabling their NSF readers so that Apple Pay can't be used at their stores. The actions of both stores has the unfortunate consequence of preventing Google Wallet users from paying that system as well. A laundry list of other members of the Merchant Customer Exchange (MCX), such as Walmart, Sears, Target, Best Buy and Old Navy, could potentially join their ranks and derail further adoption of NSF payment.

Additionally, they report that AT&T is locking Apple SIM cards when users choose that carrier over the others.
