The whole problem is that they DON'T WANT US. We represent such a small amount of their revenue, but a HUGE amount of their customer service.

The thing to remember about checks is that people use checks because they don't have credit cards NOT because they prefer to use checks! There are an estimated 100 million checking account holders that do not have a major credit card.
ALSO remember that if someone has a credit card, the odds that they have a checking account is huge. If you offer up the ACH option first, you get them THERE w/o offering the CC option right off the bat.

If I had a few paysites, which I don't :angry: , I'd run a test for at least a month and offer JUST ACH billing on one and see what the results were. I'm not saying that because I KNOW what the results would be, because I don't, but since we seem to be headed there, I'd like to play with my options beforehand.

The rain sucks and it does not look good for the 4th either. ;-(
Yeah, my rain gage was at 4 inches from last night when I had to DRAG the dogs out and retie the tomato plants. But we're STILL not getting it as bad at Atlanta's been for the summer.

Oh - did you get your garage door opener?
