This is all bullocks stuff that is going around... it only applies *basically* to US citizens/companies... contrary to what has been said by some. You ain't (presumably) a US citizen or got any business based there - so you are not "obliged" to come under their laws or involve yourself with what is fundamentally three US based domestic processors.

There is a panic created by Ibill, CCBill, Epoch blah suggesting you can't run a business on the net unless you sign up some forms, incorporate in the US and have a US Tax Code - all bollocks in an attempt to hold on to their clients - understandable!

I am not going to recommend any processor (who can?).. but you will find that Globill and others have at least made the effort to think globally, rather than be subjected to the whims of the US side of the business.

Verotel have also declared some link on their site related to this.. however, Verotel, least as far as I am concerned, ain't got a hope.

Check Google for tranaction processors... also in the next while you will see plenty coming to the forefront as possibles - and not based in the US. Many already have global banking relationships and have been around for a good few years - they have no problems in doing business with ya!
