Well they have a good business model for making short term large amounts of money:

1: advertise themselves a a 3rd party processor to get webmasters to send them customers with money.

2: bill the customers on time, every time, sometimes twice.

3: string the merchants along with a string of excuses ? its in the mail, its going out in 3
days, my bank ate my money this week ect ect?.

4: throw the merchants a small bone every month or so with a bit of money promisi9ng more very soon.

5: Pocket as much as you can ( cause you know the bank is paying them on time ).

6: repeat the above as much as possible.

I was more thinking of IBD who don't seem to be in a great financial condition themselves :-)

Whether true or not, there are questions about em trading while basically insolvent with a $37K deficit which is hardly any position to even start addressing a subsidiary like iBill who have substantial liabilites.

Well with any purchase you have to disclose all current issues and let the buyer know all potential problems or damages that could come against the company... they must have big plans if they were willing to take on the risk, or the other side of it is IBill has things under control so the buyer wasn't so worried......

I was wondering when that four letter word - jail, would be raised :-)

Tho it has been mentioned in private for some time now...
