I am not trying to sound negative or trying to discourage your current activity against Visa, however you must understand that the adult industry only accounts for a very small part of Visa's daily transaction totals.
Visa will not notice the lost amounts of transactions (if any) due to any actions taken by individuals or companies in the adult industry. Maybe putting more pressure on the billing companies will be more fruitful?
The adult industry is at the mercy of Visa and until alternative, widely used, payment methods are developed - we will stay dependant on them.

As far as I'm concerned the whole point of this thread is to put pressure on billing companies, not on VISA.
You're absolutely right, VISA is beyond our reach, and we're at their mercy until alternative payment solution is found.
But billing companies, flesh and blood of this undustry, are another story. We could and we SHOULD put pressure on them when they forget their money are OUR money. You've seen their attitude toward clients expressed on this board, and I don't think we should tolerate this, and I don't think there is nothing we could do about this.
They're big, but not as big as VISA. And while VISA do not depend on us, they almost 100% depend on our industry. Surely there are means to make them listen.
