    ibill fired 50 employees

    wont post the board link, but look at the front page of xbiz

    "iBill has just terminated 50 people without notice."

    "EuroCharge is correct. It's not a rumor."

                I think that leaves 110 nervous staff at iBill.

                            This day to day pummelling of Ibill merchants has got to stop. We need some solid rumour control now.

                              Is that true they only had 51 employees? So you is staying?

                                  For what? Companies let people go all the time. I worked for a company a dotcom one third of the staff was let go in one day. Their stock for at .39 a share now its at $14 . I kick myself for not buying $1000 worth.

                                      Have you heard this Tony or Scoreman from a source from Ibill? I would not doubt it, as they are gonna take a huge hit from this issue. I believe they must be trying to make this company work, as othewise, they would release our rebill databases.

                                            in all seriousness, this is probably a good move to make the company leaner to try to overcome this obstacle, paying salaries/health ins, at a time like this does not decrease the company burn rate

                                            if true, its very sad when you think of all of the familes affected by this

                                            its also amazing that ibill will not release cc databases upon request, i know of one person that was able to get it released from ibill, it took a lot of screaming and the threat of a lawsuit

                                              I want them to continue to process. Keep the databases, as long as they will start processing them soon!

                                                        Look. I'm glad they're gone. They were morons and idiots the lot. THE DUMBEST employee at ccbill knows more about the internet / integration / scripting than the head of IT at ibill. Anyone who was with ibill, just call ccbill up and they'll hook you up. this just happened to me, so I know what I'm talking about

                                                        Oh wait. I must be lying as I have less than 5000 posts (you know... 3 hours a day of reading gfy instead of working)

                                                            A few thoughts on this guys.

                                                            First i think if iBill is cutting staff clearly that shows they are having liquidity problems. But keep this in mind, iBill had like 160 something staff members the last I heard. Back in the days when they use to process the same volume pre intercept days they ran it with 60 something staff members. I heard the staff reductions were imminent over there and I feel badly for the staff that were cut loose without notice. There were alot of good people at iBill and more than a few of them can probably say that I personally put them through the SCORE interrogation/meat grinder over the years and I hope they won't hold that against me. Just trying to get higher performance from you guys.

                                                            This ship is showing all the signs of taking on water. If you are with iBill and have not secured a new processing plan as a backup then you would be a fool to not do it immediately. In fact many would argue your already in a situation where you might not be able to process sometime in the near future. Honestly anyone running paysites that does not have backup processing running declines is leaving money on the table, but thats another issue.

                                                            Eurocharge seems to me to be a former iBill staffer. My guess its Edward Cherry. Edward left iBill in bad terms so take that for what its worth on intentions for his posting. Not that I necessarily disagree with alot of what he has said on Xbiz but knowing who is the man behind the posts sometimes gives them alot more meaning.

                                                              I belive the rumor is true. I can't see how they could stay fully staffed with millions of dollars being held by First Data. CCbill is a great company, but having Ibill in the game is important, IMO.

                                                                You hit the nail on the head as far as processing new signups.

                                                                What are your thoughts on the Visa rebills? Have you got any insight on that issue Scoreman, and if so I would like to hear it.

It has now been 15 days of not processing them Everyday your rebill database value decreases. Everyday your chances of processing october rebills decreases. I think once we hit the 3 week mark we can kiss october rebills goodbye.

THE DUMBEST employee at ccbill knows more about the internet / integration / scripting than the head of IT at ibill. Anyone who was with ibill, just call ccbill up and they'll hook you up. this just happened to me, so I know what I'm talking about

                                                                                              If your company runs into the same kind of issues as iBill did, you might want to cut back on the number of employees in order to save the business. This is pretty much standard procedure.

                                                                                              Considering the fact that iBill actually began paying clients again, proves they're getting funds from somebody and somewhere. The real money is stuck at First Data and they're living off of these to the rescue funds.

                                                                                              Hopefully somebody posts on CMI soon.

                                                                                                Considering the fact that iBill actually began paying clients again, proves they're getting funds from somebody and somewhere. The real money is stuck at First Data and they're living off of these to the rescue funds.

Ibill would be fine if it weren't for no money, a shit ass situation, and the fact that they are going to lose even more of their declining client base.
