CCBill Is It Asking Too Much To Expect you to Act In Good Faith
 

and be honest? everyone knows you are reading these threads but you can't even show your customers the courtesy of a response to these horrible things?

Is it because you are ashamed, yet you have no intention of stopping?

Are you really proud that your company is arguably the worlds largest payment processor for Child Pornography?

At least have the fucking guts to get on here and say fuck all of you we aren't going to change a thing, if you dont like it leave....at least then I'd have an iota of respect for you.

:1orglaugh

Damned if they do damned if they don't :2 cents:

The Zookeeper needs to tidy up GFY. Less incentive for real businesses to communicate here lately.

I can remember a time when a thread like this would have just been unthinkable.

Not that there were companies processing for such a thing, but that CCBill would even be mentioned in the same sentence.

Either they've changed a lot, or I bought in to some illusion that wasn't real in regards to their quality as a company.

I doubt that "respect" plays any part of it.

Legally, it behooves them to not reply publicly. Common sense in that regard.

:2 cents:

There is CCBill, and there is CCBill competition. More competition now then before.

Competition has been known to do whatever it takes to get more business and make more money.

PERCEPTION IS REALITY

Ccbill got busted bottom line. Ccbill makes tons of money from illegal content and they enjoy the fruits from that money.

They have been busted and fronted off now. The truth is all to clear.

Some people come in here and justify their actions. When I see that, it only tells me they like illegal CP and stolen content just as well as Ccbill collecting a paycheck from processing it.

Ccbill is busted! All links pulled, changing processors!

We want absolutely nothing to do with a company that only removes a client only after they are swarmed with public complaints in an industry board.
If no one found out or complained, Ccbill would still be profiting from illegal CP and stolen file shared content!

Think about that!

Barefootsies shouldnt it be a clue to them that if they arent responding for "legal" reasons then just maybe they are into some really shady shit?

Just sayin

In their position, I'd hazard a guess that legally it's in their best interest as a business to play Sgt. Schultz. They are not alone in this however, hosting, and other online companies do as well for different reasons (i.e. safe harbor).

In short, unless it's brought to your attention,.... "You know nothing".

Sayin what exactly? Silence is guilt? Guilty of what?

And then comes a fair question about Know-Your-Customer requirements. Yes, it's easy to say or play the don't know-anything-'til-it's-brought-to-out-attention card, but aren't there regulations for what you, as a payments/money handler/processor/bank and other institutions handling large money streams are REQUIRED to ask and know, document about your clients?

My bank loves to ask those questions and they do it with a smile... :winkwink: If I'm sending a wire abroad, here comes more questions! I do not know, but THINK it would be reasonable for payments processors to know what the payments are generally for.

But I could, in this case, be wrong.

Only for legitimate sites...

Once in another line of work I had the Treasury knock on the office door because of the "know your customer" rule. Scared the ever loving shit out of me. Now if I had know my client, who was generating substantial commission dollars each month, was actually stealing the money from bank trust accounts then I would have been in Leavenworth or Eglin. If an employee of that bank had informed me what he was up to I would have closed his account within 10 minutes and been on the phone to my regulator and Treasury.

It is very simple, to maintain your reputation, never lie down with dogs.

You are referring to the Patriot Act bullshit that financial institutions must follow now. Including asking you about your bank wire, have you done business with them before, etc. and so forth. My bank does the same thing. Or did before I received approval from their treasury so I could send wires from my office, versus having to go into the bank branch. However, before that I would be asked those same questions for every manual bank wire I would send, yes.

That being said, CCBill is not a financial institution that is regulated by the government. You can argue that their merchant banks are, and that is who they are running their cards and shit through. But to the merchant bank, their "customer" is CCBill.

:2 cents:

Funny how rules are so freaking strict with everything in this business when it comes to those who are honest, while thieves and people who don't give a fuuuuck get away with anything and everything.

How about I just state all my paysites being user uploaded content, then I don't have to care too much either right? no documents, no reviews and so on and on, would make it all much easier.

DWB summed it up for you already fine sire.

It is all to clear that those in the porn idustry in Arizona have lost their minds: https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=1071376

*Me appearing for the defense*

Here's a view of the other side of the coin.

We know the online porn game is shrinking, the smaller guys are being squeezed out and the bigger ones demand small % on processing and most have CCbill at the bottom of a cascade. Added to that is the incessant stream of threads about them not converting.

All this must be hitting their bottom line. They have to look for new revenue streams. Does this give them a new view on the situation?

Maybe the business from the file lockers is so good it's keeping them in business. Extreme still think about it, would you prefer they close up or greatly reduce their business?

Long term. Without a huge change in the laws, online porn is as good as doomed. It simply can't compete with the huge amount of free legal, semi legal and pirated porn. The tipping point was the day the BW price dropped to a level where giving it away to sell ad space was better than selling memberships.

Free porn needs to be so tame, they will have to pay to jerk off before online porn is saved. Who would bet that after all the paysites are as good as gone or shriveled to an insignificance, piracy will still be there.

Flame away.
