I have never been a fan of CCBill, but I am curious as to why you think they will be next?

Roughly what percentange of your current processing is with CCBill?

we have less than 2% of our processing with ccbill. but 2% is still enough for us to protect.

I think that when processors start making important business decisions on their emotional shirt sleeves that it's a bad sign for their future.

actually at this point i'm going to stop posting.

i talked to them on the phone not long ago and it was not so discretely implied that they would terminate all of our rebills if we werent nicer.

apparently they are worried about the panic that might be caused.

hahahahahhahahahahhahaa

i love how processors blackmail us into keeping our mouths quiet by using our rebills ...

its a pretty safe bet on their part

sometimes, ya just gotta admit defeat - but i like how you pissed on the floor on the way out

ps: i think ccbill has the best crew of all the 3rd party processors, they must have done something major to piss you off!!

I've been wrong about processors before - I thought IBill would be out of business by now (haven't used them as a primary processor in 2.6 years and still have rebills going through every month)

If we consider the processors that went under in the last year, most notably WSB and PSWBilling I don't see the same things going on at CCbill that caused the demise of the other processors (cross acquiring and so on) - also they didn't have the same structure and experience in the field that CCbill does

That being said it merits a pricking up of the ear about the treatment we are hearing about - but again there are 3 sides to every story

Ok, are you actually saying then that there's something you are doing that they don't necessarily approve of? And therefore you figured you'd piss on their potted plant in return? Is that was all this fortune cookiesque thread boils down to, Hoop?
