They have been down only TWICE for a number of hours in the last month that I know of - I monitor 2 master accounts constantly, and would never be more than 6 hours between accesses. We didn't lose ANY processing last time as their processing system was still up, but this time the join page processing is down also.
I'm not hitting the panic button, but yet I rarely do. We do some hard research before making decisions, and having constant contact with different areas of Verza (Verotel) on almost a daily basis on a number of issues tells me our initial research is still valid. I would say they are as solid as iBill, but maybe that wouldn't be saying the right thing
I seem to remember when I was with some of the usual US based suspects that downtime was MUCH more frequent than what we have experienced in a relatively trouble free operation since December last year.
Has anyone else but me spoken with Visa Europe? Verotel's banks? Or even tried to get a press release from Visa USA? Pictures get painted a little differently.....
Don't believe the hype all the time.
Just because chicken little said the sky is falling didn't mean it was.
