Reputable Merchant Account for Adult Processing?

[LushBoobs]

OK. I need advice.

I had ibill as some of you know - they suck so i managed to get a merchant account. What i did not know was that the affiliate/partner/reseller for ipaymentinc.com lied to me - and told me that they do process adult sites.
He also lied to the bank, first national and told them I have an arts & crafts website.

Unfortunately after 1 solid year with no chargebacks and a 100 % profitibility rate, I had a chargeback on 12/24. As my account with ipaymentinc was new, they flagged it for review. They also took $500.00 out of my checking account, as a protective measure, and now they want to see 10-15 invoices so they can make sure I'm following proper billing procedures. ( ibill is my gateway, so i have invoices and it's all automated, i never even know the members card numbers and if they contact me - then i know their names, otherwise i don't )

So... now i find out, my merchant account is still active, but the bank that processes for them is only willing to process non adult sales.

Ack. Where can I find a REAL merchant account for REAL adult merchants?

Help, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Between 1/2 my members being stuck on gkard with ibill and not getting paid, and 1/2 my members stuck on a merchant account that was never supposed to process adult stuff - I'm not getting paid ANYTHING - nothing. no dimes, no pennies. nothin'.


Since I was intentionally misinformed by the moron who just wanted a commision and he tried to " cloak " my site as an " arts and crafts " site, now i'm kind of screwed. All my members are paying, I have a very good chargeback ratio - basically none in the last 12 months, except for 12/24 - thanks to that person, and the guy who sold me the merchant account ( yes i paid for it ) well- I'm screwed.

So... help? i need help from the big boys, I need advice. I want someone to hold my hand. Is that too much to ask? I may not be the waify fake titted chick you're all into but whatever, I've got some stuff going on, so help a fellow webmaster out - please?

thanks oprano gods.

I bow down to your greatness and await an informed compassionate response with baited breath...

Yep, Mitch is late. He should have used Boards Scanner. :P

I would look to set up an account with CCBill, that way you can set up an easy referal program. So many webmasters are already signed up, it would be easy to get traffic if you have a unique site that can convert and retain.

Anthony says he has a billing solution as well.

And Anthony is family. I expect to have some more solutions after Vegas when I see where everyone is at.

WTS can hadle your checking needs and cybertokens looks like a decent solution as well.

CJ & I tried to warn everyone about Solar Billing on the very first Oprano Radio show. I had really hoped that we were wrong about Bob but it seems now that they arent billing for hte evil adult site and are going to focus on billing for gambling.

Talk about out of the frying pan and into the fire....
