1) ePassporte does NOT - I repeat - does NOT charge you $50 for an account. ePassporte charges a load fee (from the load card) of $5.00. You must load a minimum of $50 and the balance of $45 is yours to spend as you wish. Why have an account with a zero balance? The $50 minimum encourages use of the product. Variable rates are being considered for 2005, but for now, account initiation requires a $50 minimum load. Anyone ever get a checking account? Most banks require a minimum of at least $100 to open an account. This is nothing new.

Yeah..but what's wrong with just keeping $5.00 in your account as opposed to $45? No matter how you look at it..that $45 will never be yours again as anytime you use the $45 in your account, ANOTHER min is going to be necessary.
