    Ibill Visa Rebills

    Seeing as how IBill has started to drop processing for sites with Adult content, has anyone been successful in getting their client's cc data from Ibill to process it elsewhere ??

    If not, does anyone know if they will continue rebills for clients who used Visa to signup?

    They refuse to answer my emails to premium...I figure before calling them and listening to their BS I'd ask here first.

          I would be very interested to hear if anyone has gotten ibill to release CC data (if they have a merchant account), and/or transfer CC data to ccbill or another processor.

          Cheers

            Nothing to do with Canadians anymore. I'm in Canada, the site/company isn't ;p

            They've started calling their large adult clients and informing them they can no longer process Visa for any adult content (we got the call Sunday night).

            We process upwards of $300,000 USD / month with them and atleast 50% of that is probably Visa, so this is a huge problem if we cannot rebill our members.

              Seems I really did miss something. Coo.

              I'm off for popcorn if this really is a general thing.

                      its hard for me to believe Ibill would call anyone on any day of the week, much less a Sunday

                      I see nothing online anywhere about this.

                          Hrm, what a shock....called IBill premium services and my rep was away from his desk ;p

                          Once/if I get called back, I'll update you folks on the happenings...I find it odd no one else here heard about this from Ibill yet? (or did everyone just have the good sense to drop them heh .....if only we didn't need them for our rebills grrrr)

                              Unfortunately, it's not my site I just work for the company =)

                              Remember that isn't PROFIT though......there is a big difference after expenses like paying affiliates are taken out ;p

                              It's not a pornsite though, just adult dating.

                                I just got off the phone with my rep at iBill. Appearently a of their clients were registered incorrectly with Visa. For those customers the rebills are on hold for 30 days so they can get their information into and approved by Visa. The problem doesn't affect us so I didn't pry too deeply.

                                  There are a lot of companies making way more then 3.6M/year.

                                          I'm not sure on all the specific details, as the call went to my boss and not me ;p...He told me however that they said they will begin no longer processing Visa for adult-content sites and that they were calling to inform us of this. He does have a habit of exaggerating things though, so that's why I figured I'd ask on here.

                                          I'll know everything once my rep calls me back though I guess....

                                            Dear Valued iBill Merchant,


                                            In order to ensure that our clients are in legal compliance with the Federal Labeling and Record-Keeping Law, 18 U.S.C. 2257, and as specified in our contractual agreement, iBill will be requiring the disclosure of certain information on your adult web sites.  This information is legally required for all adult content merchants and we request that you add the following information within the next 30 days to ensure that your web site is compliant with the law. Failure to post the 18 U.S.C. 2257 statement to your site in 30 days (including the Custodian of Records contact information), may cause an interruption in processing and payment for your Sponsored Merchant ID.

                                            Please add the following to the main page of your site:

                                            1.      The statement:  "All models were at least 18 years old when they
                                            were photographed."
                                            2.      Add a link to: "18 U.S.C. 2257 Statement" 
                                            3.      This link should go to a page where the following information is

                                            stated:  "In compliance with the Federal Labeling and Record-Keeping Law (also known as 18 U.S.C. 2257), all models located within our domain were 18 years of age or older during the time of photography. All models' proof of age is held by the custodian of records, which is listed below, organized by producer.   All content and images are in full compliance with the requirements of 18 U.S.C. 2257 and associated regulations."

For those customers the rebills are on hold for 30 days so they can get their information into and approved by Visa. The problem doesn't affect us so I didn't pry too deeply.
                                                    Spoke with my rep now, same thing you wrote above. Our info is correct however so they said "Visa dropped the ball and we're trying to push them..it's not our fault or yours, it is Visa's".

                                                    As for the adult content, our rep confirmed that they will still process Adult with Visa, so I guess my boss was just wrong ;p

                                                      Dear Valued iBill Merchant,


                                                      In order to ensure that our clients are in legal compliance with the Federal Labeling and Record-Keeping Law, 18 U.S.C. 2257, and as specified in our contractual agreement, iBill will be requiring the disclosure of certain information on your adult web sites.  This information is legally required for all adult content merchants and we request that you add the following information within the next 30 days to ensure that your web site is compliant with the law. Failure to post the 18 U.S.C. 2257 statement to your site in 30 days (including the Custodian of Records contact information), may cause an interruption in processing and payment for your Sponsored Merchant ID.

                                                      Please add the following to the main page of your site:

                                                      1.      The statement:  "All models were at least 18 years old when they
                                                      were photographed."
                                                      2.      Add a link to: "18 U.S.C. 2257 Statement" 
                                                      3.      This link should go to a page where the following information is

                                                      stated:  "In compliance with the Federal Labeling and Record-Keeping Law (also known as 18 U.S.C. 2257), all models located within our domain were 18 years of age or older during the time of photography. All models' proof of age is held by the custodian of records, which is listed below, organized by producer.   All content and images are in full compliance with the requirements of 18 U.S.C. 2257 and associated regulations."

                                                        You can't legally transfer rebills from one 3rd party biller to another one.

                                                                  Yes that's basically the issue I had, as they are not "models", I asked my rep he is finding out for me if the text needs to be modified in any way.

Also ibill doesn?t keep as much of the ccard info as you think, It?s their processor that keeps the ccard #, they don't store the entire # anywhere in their system. Last I understood.

                                                                      I just got this e-mail from ibill as well, not sure what they mean by it, are they expecting us to post where we got our photos from? i mean my site has 250,000 photos, some are leased from other sites, some are my own i bought alot at Ia 2000, are they wanting every single model name addres and shit, this is totally bunk.

                                                                      this is my last straw with ibill if there asking for all my records.

                                                                      Let me know whats a good cc company atm acpays.com kept advertising they didnt need a US presents, but now i see they also need it, is this just going to filter through the other CC processsors over time or is this just another way for ibill to get rid of us.
