According to the official statement from three weeks ago,
Quote:
"Visa International has suspended our banking partner’s (St. Kitts Nevis Anguilla National Bank) ePassporte Visa program."
I asked Visa directly and they confirmed that Visa blocked the Visa cards; at the same time Visa claims that we should be able to access the funds stored on the Visa debit card (without saying exactly how). Visa recommends to contact SKNB directly (exactly the opposite what Epassporte suggests). This pointing of fingers obviously is quite pointless. So who is responsible, and who is tangible?

Since Visa started this issue and was able to devalue the Visa plastic cards, it's obviously Visa who can end it - if they want. Visa is an international brand claiming to allow for "easy" and "secure" purchases, Visa is advertising how great heir debit cards are, and the Visa label is clearly printed on the Visa Electron card. They even want you to pay your rent with your Visa card and promise stuff like a Zero Liability policy.

It's up to Visa to explain why our Visa Electron cards are still devalued, and it's up to Visa to help us getting the real money back that is stored on our Visa Electron cards. Whoever the incapable middleman might be - imho it's Visa's job to secure the safety and accessibility of our money on Visa Electron cards. If they don't care, the Visa brand isn't worth a shit.
