Very nice news to wake up for... Me and my gf both had card renewals this month and we have ~10k stuck in our virtual accounts.. Crazy... :(

webgurl 09-02-2010 11:07 PM

Just read every single last post .... I know tomorrow when I wake up I will have to read another 10 pages <sigh> .
Those that use my program and concerned about this issue , contact me direct I am the owner , I will make changes for you asap .
Thanks

Oh, and let me add, I would be willing to bet dollars to fucking donuts that this issue it tied right back to the one company I'd love to meet the owners of in a darkened ally with no witnesses.

The same company that has single handedly<sic> fucked us as an industry over and over AND is the same company that was the cause of WMC having their accounts frozen... you know the one.....

And with this in mind it's no surprise at all that Visa would lock down all the cards, while higher forces look at money trails. and yet some of you will STILL continue to send them traffic, sell them ad space and whatever else.

That company NEEDS to be purged from the industry it has been nothing but a stain for too long, mark my words IF and WHEN more back end info about this comes out, it will allllll trace back to that one single company!

(kind of surprised more people have not mentioned this yet)

You can transfer from wallet to bank account or a debit/credit card.

lolzzzzzz. If you think a fucking film did this shit then you better go check out 'faces of death'. No film did this.

dichotomy 09-02-2010 11:17 PM

Oh boy! Time for plan B!

In any case, I do hope that ePass pulls through, it has, in many ways, become an industry standard for payments worldwide and this might be "OH SHIT, OOHHH SHIIIT!!!" we were all having nightmares about.

Worst case scenario - we get a decent tabula rasa in the end because oh so many will go down if the situation wont be resolved in a positive manner during next few weeks.
Every cloud has a silver lining, even if you have to catch that mofa and paint it on yourself.

Just be real, things involving banks in "islands" and VISA does not get resolved in 15 minutes.

Good luck, have a little faith and, please, hurry up, I'm really hungry! :D

P.S.

Yelling at Michael wont help, tho I do understand the urge to vent it all out.
Remember, don't shoot the messenger!

Does the Credit Card option work for all countries / currencies ?
So if someone has a Canadian Visa Credit Card can you get it transferred
the funds will just convert itself ?
I would like to know if anybody has experience in this already ?

Can you transfer from Wallet to Bank acccount? Or withdraw anyway from the Wallet?

Yes you CAN withdraw from wallet to bank account or pre-registered credit/debit card and if you do not have one registered you can transfer funds in the wallet to another account and withdraw from there, (IF that has a route out) HOWEVER make sure that the second account has incoming funds automatically set to go into the wallet not the card. (click wallet and select this option)

The transferring funds works and withdrawal shows as successful, however obviously it will take a few days to see if it clears ok.

Ironically, in my case, the sum I transferred just now was automatically reduced when I checked my second account with the fee for a new visa card !

JM-cj 09-02-2010 11:20 PM

Some one try to withdraw via wire, a US bank account or to a credit/debit card in your name.
Is it work or bank 100% dead?

will76 09-02-2010 11:24 PM

Im surprised some of you people are acting surprised. My bank blocked epass over 3 years ago. I haven't been able to even load my account for over 3 years.

Chase would manually remove the block for me, it would work for a month then it would be blocked again. We did this about 4 times and then the bank finally said, sorry epassporte is completly blocked you can't transfer money to them.

This is what Chase told me: Chase has a new system enhancement for our fraud department when it has to do with internet gaming, or gambling. They decline any request now where the merchant has specified their line of business is gaming or gambling. With the new system enhancement they stated we aren't even able to now go in and remove the status so that even that specific transaction can go through. This is something through Visa for debit cards so we have no control over their decision. So as long as the business entities has themselves listed as internet gaming or gambling our customers will no longer get approval on their debit cards for the transactions...

LOL.... if the sponsor doesn't have money then it doesn't matter what method they try to use. That is irrelevant. It's all about trying to keep as little people as possible having their hands on your money. Wire transfer is ideal but in most cases too expensive.

You can withdraw from the wallet but not using the Virtual/Electron card

Wire to US bank.

adult-help 09-02-2010 11:27 PM

so does that mean that the money epass (=our money) has in their bank is still accessible to them, it i just that we cant access it with our visas? Because if they also got their account blocked and some of you even say they knew about this coming and it doesn't makes sense to me why would they keep the money there if they knew the lock down is coming? Wouldn't they transfer it to different bank in this case?

Eggs into 1 basket is the problem. I rely on paying through epass and taking money out for bills etc. This is my life so you can take that mumbo jumbo elsewhere. This is bad bad biz and the longer this is a issue where people cant send out money to another epass holder and not pull money out, then you will see a massive backlash. Some people rely on epass sending money to foreign partners for biz and this haults biz which haults income and harm lives. its bad enough we have a fucking recession and now this???

hey check it out. i got some news for you, and everyone else in this whole business.

we ALL play in the HIGH RISK adult market. we RELY on CREDIT CARDS to make money, EVERYONE RELIES on them. EVERYONE.

you play in the high risk game you assume some of the risk.

VISA controls how long any of us get to play this game.

get that in your dome and process it.

if you don't like it, LEAVE and go fucking flip burgers.

Thanks Michael ,

I am in Canada but my Visa's are USD so it's the same difference right? I just
don't want some annoying screwed up exchange rate between US/CND
cause ebay/paypal has this issue all the time where I pay for things on my USD Visa
but it converts it into CND currency on the invoicing because of my address .
It just doesn't recognize that a transaction is done using a US credit card with
a purchase made in Canada .
This is soooooooo annoying :disgust

DavieVegas 09-02-2010 11:36 PM

Glad Michael and everyone cares about the people who kept funds in there wallet. All i see in here is bla bla bla i dont barely use epass or thank god i didnt have much in there fuck off...I got more then a few thousand sitting in my virtual epass from someone who just paid me and i fucking cant stand how epass doesnt let me take out more then 800 and my limit is 1k btw a day. Makes no sense at all. Thanks to them I have to make a billion trips and because of them not telling us about this wallet stuff where u have to have money in there to transfer to bank account it fucks us all. We wont see a fucking dime of the money in there and i hope they rot in hell. Perfect timing with bills and new month too. Fucking cocksuckers....

Michael O 09-02-2010 11:36 PM

1) Statement from Mr Mallick said suspended not closed.

2) Money on Wallet can still be withdrawn but no by using the ePassporte Electron or Virtual card.

3) We are doing everything we can to get this solved.

4) It WILL get solved

5) Consider the wallet a kind of bank account and then you move money from there to cards to be able to use it, thats why this money is not affected.

6) We DO NOT have access to move your funds around when they are in your account/card they are so speculation about the funds being used for something else is totally unfounded

7) Personal note I am 100% convinced we will be back stronger than ever, I have talked to people I trust 100% in management and other people on the "floor" and from what I hear I have no doubts. It sucks I know I did not have time to withdraw myself I were called at 5am my time but I am confident that it will only be a short while and soon everything will be back to normal.

Actually IF that is the case it is nothing BUT good news for the rest of us, That company (NOT Epass) NEEDS to go the fuck away, as all they keep doing is fuck the rest of us due to their own shady shit, banks have lost CC processing, programs have folded cause they did not have back up processing and they were caught with a closed one, Tubes, stolen content, card banging etc etc etc, Rid the net of that one company (and it's other arms and legs) and things would FINALLY return to somewhat 'normal' around here.

I HOPE it's that, and with the past 6 months or so it seems to fit.... lets see what happens with Paypal next, as I KNOW it's used from time to time, IF it happens to PayPal will people say the same things they are saying now? or will it be a bit calmer?

Then nothing further is frozen.

If you have a USD card our processor should recognize it and send you USD instead of CND if not let me know.
