For those complaining about $35 epassporte fee - GoFuckYourself.com

There's a logical reason they're charging that... they're giving a whole dollar per card to resellers! No 0.98, no 0.99 but a whole buck!

he's talking about to receive you visa electron card from epass they charge a $35 fee to get the actual card

SmokeyTheBear · 03-20-2006, 10:35 PM

do you own a real credit card ? have you ever owned a real credit card ?

i'm not being mean but i have several credit cards and thats about the going rate for a yearly fee. I have one card with no fee but the interest rate makes up for it..

Im not saying i like the fee but as long as the service is worth it then i dont mind paying a fee. What i dont like is to pay a normal fee and get inferior service

alan-l · 03-20-2006, 10:47 PM

hey Jumpy Smokey, I've a few CC and I know what they charge, last week everybody was complaining about that and discussed about the cost of plastic and I just found it funny that they're giving one dollar per CC holder. We call it humor, try it, it's good and refreshing

btw, just in case people were complaining because of the cost of REPLACING broken cards, no annual fees. And if you pay that amount for a replacement card, I can tell you they're fucking you hard and good

I've never had a credit card or bank debit card that had a yearly fee...

Egomancer · 03-20-2006, 11:07 PM

Yeah, this is the standard VISA fee for issuing a card...

Neither of my banks charge me an annual fee. They definitely don't charge me for replacement cards, especially when its their fault. Furthermore, each bank is extremely easy to get a hold of and fix any problems with.

For people overseas Epassporte card is most definately worth 35$ annual fee

I have several CCs. The only ones with years fees are American Express and one of my Mastercards which is $12 a year to get a reduced % rate. All the others don't have any yearly fee.

And at my bank, If I keep a minimum in my account, my monthly fee is waived. Compared to regular banking and CCs, ePass ass rapes it's users in fees... I haven't compaired the 2 in terms of fees but I suspect PayPal is almost as bad.

Doctor Dre · 03-20-2006, 11:46 PM

They're a fucking business ... normal they have to make money somewhere.

I don't see why people are complaining about them. I can see ebay when the fees are getting out of hand, but that... no biggie.

exactly what i said

SmokeyTheBear · 03-21-2006, 12:08 AM

what it boils down to is the epassporte card is basically a bank card and shouldn't really cost anything , it costs pennies to produce , and only helps make epassporte more money thru user fees. Its sort of an insult to charge a fee for it..

If they were clever they would charge the fee for "fast helpfull customer service" with a money back guarantee ( that you have to contact customer service for if your dissatisfied ) that way anyone who gets good service will feel its worth it , and anyone who thinks it sucks will eventually get sick of contacting customer service for a refund
