Ibill's Cross Border Update
 

I am based in the US but I just got this email:



Dear Mr. Exity Ex Ex,


Since November 15, 2002, you have been processing via iBill Europe, our
subsidiary for all sponsored merchants in the EU region. Although, we have been
working diligently with the card associations to establish an IPSP relationship
with a financial institution in your region, this effort has been unsuccessful.
If you are uncertain about which processing region you are located in, please
consult the list of approved processing countries at the bottom of this letter.
As you know, the card associations play a significant role in developing our
business model, as well as whom we can service. iBill Europe holds itself and
its clients to the highest standards regarding payment processing. Our position
within the industry is to be compliant with all card associations and FTC
regulations. Therefore, effective May 22, 2003, iBill Europe will only offer
Visa credit card payment services to those merchants based in the European
Region.
We are truly sorry that iBill Europe will no longer be able to accommodate your
VISA processing needs. We will continue to process MasterCard, Web900 and
Checks for you.
For more information, please contact me 954-363-4641.

solution for VISA.
Please call me to discuss this. Thanks.




So my question is :eek7

Did Ibill just email *everyone* this message including the people it did not apply to? Or have I really been processing on Ibill Europe or what? I thought I registered (and paid $750 to process with) Visa USA.
