But leave the space for a tip blank because you're leaving cash on the table, are you setting yourself up for credit card fraud?
The staff could write in anything.

Dunno.
I always tip with cash. If you use a credit card the staff are exposed to income tax and all sorts of other wickedness.

You'd have to reconcile all of your receipts to your monthly statement to make sure they're correct. Which I used to do in my twenties and thirties. Can't be arsed now. "Dildos-R-Us - 50 quid"? Uh yeah, probably.

Uh yeah, probably. I don't use a credit card that often, I'll get my statement next week and check. That sounds like a company you'd order products from quite often.

My mate got done back in the days when they swiped the card in a machine and did a carbon copy which they supposedly threw away, personally I have never ordered a meal in a restaurant so never happened.

I've never had a credit card... and we don't tip in my country, so I've never been confronted by the problem mentioned by the OP.

They may not tip, but that does not stop the staff farting over your food. I know, I have done it.
A lot of places don't tip, but the waiters and such appreciate the gesture

I've never disgraced myself or a business I worked for in such an antisocial and unprofessional manner. And tipping is simply not a thing in this country. Employers actually pay their employees a reasonable wage... it's might never seem enough, but it's still better than what's on offer in many other countries.

I actually always scratch out the tip line in ink on the receipt because I always leave the tip in cash. Although I'd notice if someone did add a tip since I have my credit and debit cards set up to text me anytime they are used for more than a $1.
