I-bill allows more transactions because they want the bigger companies business. Doing so, put's more high-risk transactions through I-bill. Why they offered us 6-8%.

Jump around and join some I-bill sites, here are some things you will notice.

1) On some when you call in I-bill for support, they wont even let you cancel your membership. You have to contact the paysite owners. So I did, with no responce within 24 hours. It took 72 and I e-mailed on a Monday. My trial already converted. Finally I-bill canceled me but...

Oh ya The cancel form on the I-bill site said I had no transactions with I-bill under that card.. Odd, I only have one CC.

2) Cancel, and you will get rebilled anyway. I did 6 different times over a 1 year period. I had to cancel my card.

3) Rebills.. Hell, this is easy. If you have a new master account. Send 100 joins to it under a webmaster ID. Make sure each person has access by hand.

Wait till the rebills start. A few things you will notice.

1) After some of the members cancel, they will still have access to your site. Ibill wont tell you they quit.

2) They cancel and they don't have access and they are not in your system. Yet, you will get a chargeback for $50 when the person only joined for for a trial (via stats).. Oh ya, you will notice you only got paid for the trial.

They lose around 5% of all rebills under a master account but they will still rebill them. You wont get the cash.

Web900, what a world class fuck up. Do your own support and watch the class act fuckup that web900 is. Ever notice that members will e-mail and give you pincodes, that are not in the system, yet the member was billed and you never saw the credit.. Ya it's a bitch to deal with.

Ever notice how often I-bill will double bill people?

--

Please note: We have tested almost every major processor. We have found issues with every single one of them. I-bill is just the largest collection of fuckups. More than all others combinded.

Call different reps and ask each of them to e-mail you your CB ratio. hehe funny results if they day is correct You may get 2 or 3 different answers.

Epoch, CCbill, etc. Do scrub much harder, but our CB ratio is from .3 to .4% with them and is always steady month after month.
(I assume jettis but we have ever tested them)

Both companies provide kick ass support for members.

As well, both do things I do not agree with but are still better than the best parts of I-bill.
