I like the guys at WSB personally, but you know what?

From what I understood last fall, they, like some others that I surely don't even need to mention, chose the course of NOT DOING WHAT THE FUCK THEY WERE TOLD TO DO BY VISA.

But ohhhhhh,myyyy, all the fucking boohooing over $750 to register sites properly and be in compliance and how bad the Big Three or whatever you want to call them were for charging such a thing and registering people properly and staying in compliance with Visa...

I'm in complete and utter disbelief that it surprises anyone that a third party biller that was not in compliance with Visa to start with is now out of business.

That's what happens when Visa US is now in charge of compliance for Visa International too. All the people that thought they were going to get away with something are starting to figure out that shit ain't gonna fly and they will be put in a position where they have to do things for customers in order to try and stay ahead of the game that only put them even further into trouble in the end.

You want to be smart? Get with a compliant processor. That is the ONLY thing that is wise at the moment. There is a reason that big sites don't process on their own merchant accounts any more, they don't like the risk level against their own credit.

And thats the end of that rant.
I couldn't have said it better myself so I'll say it a different way

You stupid fucks who were too cheap to shell out the 750.00 to protect your BUSINESS are now wishing you did I bet. Keep on telling us how processor X is smarter than CCbill because you don't have to pay the 750.00 with them and tell us how processor Y is better than Jettis because they told Visa who was boss.

The faster you slipshot, half assed, fly-by-night, assholes are out of this business, the better off we'll all be.

YOUR BUSINESS IS ONLY AS STRONG AS YOUR PROCESSOR.

But hey, I'm sure most of you will run down to the other guy who isn't in compliance right now and we'll here the same boo hooing 3-6 months from now.
