				 |  The end of 3rd party or auto rebills in March? I heard through the grape vine that something big is coming in March.  End of third party? End of auto rebills? Another one bites the dust? What have you heard about CC processors? Please make an effort, make this an interesting and educational read. thx, Ray

				 | Heh, you just know those fuckers who sent traffic to bullshit sites like Atherton's Hilton site, knowing full well the surfer was getting bilked, would be the ones screaming the loudest if rebills went away.

				 | Whenever someone says "something big is coming" I get nervous, tighten the budget and rarely sleep.  Big news is rarely good news. |

 But seriously, its just a friend that heard it from a friend who has been doing this for ever. Pretty good source, but all he knows is something "big" is coming. For all I know, like steffie said, it WAS the fact that Ibill sold...but I dought it. Ray

				 | It wouldn't surprise me if 3rd party billers couldn't take high-risk accounts anymore such as adult. I doubht it would be the end of rebilling. It's just the end of 3rd party billing for adult sites probably. There are no merchant services in the US anymore I don't think that will take adult sites, unless your bringing in over $100,000 a month. So adult 3rd party billing would be next I would think. This is all speculation of course.

				 | I would like to know the thrill someone gets from making statements like this. Its like Rumsfield "Something terrible will happen we dont where and we dont know when". If you have info spit it out if not ,write about something worth while talking about.  Trust me no one knows what the big cc companies are going to do except the big cc companies, I dont care if you have been in adult for 40 yrs.  Everyone gets scared about rebills going away but what have you done to help prevent this from happening or have you helped this happen: Promoting Paris Hilton scams, prechecked cross sells or scams that fuck the surfers. Do you support these practices by signing up to be a afiliate to things you know fuck people ? To me if I made my living as a affiliate or tgp guy I wouldnt do that because the rebills stop most of your income will go with it.The problem in our industry is most only care about todays dollars and that will be our down fall. |

I knew that the 2 merchant services that were taking adult merchant accounts, were not going to anymore for the small guy. That was 2 months before it happened. People that do credit card processing know alot of things before the general public does.
