here is what happened....
we had a site up for approval that Visa requested the docs on because some of the guys looked 'questionable'
we had the docs to Visa in less then an hour in the format they specified...
the site took much longer then normal to be approved after it had passed our billing companies compliance dept and after we sent the docs...
Since it was part of a network of sites and by joining this new site the member would get access to the other sites as bonuses our billing company decided to do a complaince check on those sites even though they had already been approved...
We had added recip buttons to several review sites recently, so the person from the compliance dept checked on those review sites.
the review sites had done reviews for piss sites in the past.. since Visa does not accept piss sites any longer, neither does our billing company (but if you had piss sites that were approved in the past I think they won't deny you billing now)
since our billing company does not accept piss content (it is now considered non-compliant or 'forbidden' I cannot link directly to anyone who links directly to a piss site on a domain registered within that companies US region.
we fixed it
the problem that I see it is for the actual review sites, esp ones that require a recip. If other programs get their sites checked for compliance and one of the bonus sites they offer is checked and happens to have a recip on it to a review site that.... you know the rest
I just wanted to bring it to everyone attention that this is going on.
