It might be plausible deniability too. If you send them the urls and they do nothing about it then it's possible that could later be used to bring criminal charges against them for aiding in the distribution of child pornography. Someone (like say a judge, Visa, Msstercard, or even Congress if CCBill is ever summoned) might also one day ask them why they have not terminated processing after getting thousands of reports with urls showing the site hosted child pornography. This way they can say "We had no urls so there was no way to verify it". Plausible deniability.

They are allowed to check on what their customers are processing with them. Anyone who says otherwise is full of it. It could lead to a bad situation for YOU if you go searching for it but if you really aren't a pedo and you can document what you were doing you'll probably be okay in the end. (However, IANAL) Personally I won't click on any result which shows those terms. Just the fact that certain terms are there ought to be enough for CCBill, Visa, Mastercard, ASACP, or the government to want to investigate further. There's no reason for me to check it to verify. Let them do that.
