Loki,
just tell me how many millions of dollars have you made with your approach and I'll tell you how many Nick has made with his.

and how many times has nick fallen on his ass and had to start from scratch with debts bigger than most of us earn in a year?!?!?!?
come on serge, even you can see that the times of blatantly screwing people are over & not going to get you far these days in this market - unless you consider 'far' to be living in an $8 million pink house with a 3 month old baby you've seen 4 times, addicted to pain killers and an entire city of people who hate you because you owe them money.
or 'far' like joeE ... with bridges burning down in a trail behind him
or Lensman ... shephard
or Xpics ...
or IEG ...
or hooper in 6 months time ...
Idealistic Bullshit is the current trend - and its idealistic bullshit that keeps merchant accounts these days
While the idealistic newbies may be 'too nice' for Oprano the surfers like them - and they are the ones with the credit cards!
Loki, Nick is a crook (alledgedly) ... but he's our crook & we kinda like him anyway LOL
Oprano is a bit different to Netpond - everyone here is an old timer & most have made or lost their fortune a few times over, we are more cynical and have seen it all before, we know that customer service doesn't *necessarily* equal more dollars and we aren't naive enough to think that idealism has a place in this business ...
But I don't think customer service is idealistic, i think its good business & I happen to really really like my processing solution.
