To those seriously considering legal action just remember, this thread is full of very little boys with popguns who know nothing about the law, have never run a proper business before and who always liked to scream loudly when they found a smelly lump in their diaper.
The big boys are sitting tight, moving on with new business and keeping themselves informed.

Sounds like an iBill rep living in hope! :-)
Personally I don't give a shit about US law - lawyers do that for me. Tho there are questions as to whether US law actually applies in some instances.
I've also ran more businesses over years than ever the net was heard of.
Like probably most, I also have moved on and already dismissed iBill. However, there are plenty more webmasters here who are entangled with this lying company and have substantial rebilling. Some are small, others more substantial. Frankly, the "big boy" stuff is irrelevant since several are what you could describe as "big boys".
Basically, you have a company that failed thru their own mismanagement and inability to even see potential problems by just having one bank in the US, First Data. That alone is not even a sane commercial decision.
There is also the matter of why First Data pulled the plug on iBill. If First Data are in the wrong, why have iBill not commenced action for recovery of funds, but pleading with First Data instead??
Then we have the lying about payments, constant lying. We have US webmasters who were promised some form of security in promissory notes which iBill, once again, failed in delivery. We have a number of webmasters who have not been paid in months, yet get more bullshit.
Frankly, this is a company on the verge, not just of a civil action, but a criminal one. Tho there is possibly *some* hope of recovery, but this is not a company many will trust again. I'd want secured funds/insurance policy from iBill deposited into the hands of a third party to be paid in the event of a future demise, before ever considering dealing with them in the future.
Unless iBill do have some magical recovery - there are going to be a number of webmasters taking action for recovery of their membership records and any funds owing - if such funds still remain and have not been sqaundered already.
