Jettis - No VISA for EU clients
 

Important Notice for Jettis EU Clients
November 25, 2003
Dear Jettis EU Client,

As we are sure you are aware, we have witnessed significant changes in the High Risk processing Industry over the past year, but none quite as dramatic as the past six months. Due to the increased scrutiny of this industry by the credit card associations, our EU bank just notified us that it has decided to close this portion of their portfolio as of Friday, November 28, 2003. As a result, we will no longer be able to process your Visa EU transactions after that date. For clarification purposes, Jettis' accounts were in good standing. The bank notified us that their decision to no longer support the processing activities of adult IPSP's was widespread and was not aimed solely at Jettis. It is important to note that this notice has no effect whatsoever on Jettis clients based in the US.

Obviously, this short notice has not left much time to make preparations for Visa processing for our EU clients. We will still continue to process your MasterCard, Discover and ACH transactions without any interruption. We sincerely regret that we were unable to give you greater notice and we realize that this short notice can create a hardship. While we are searching for alternative EU solutions for our clients, we are unable to ensure that we will have them in place by the date referenced above. If you have questions about these changes, we encourage you to contact our Client Services department by telephone at 818-597-4705 or via email at [email protected].

Sincerely,

Team Jettis

wow

damn...did Jettis use the same EU bank as CCBILL does now?
:(

well now this are big news

what bank is it

is this because jettis is in California and is US based corp?
Does ccbill & ibill have actual offices in the EU?

AFAIK Jettis has/had a company in UK

Hopefully they're not just starting their search for an alternate bank now. I would have thought they would have a backup (assuming one was available) waiting and available to take over should things go down the shitter with their current bank.

let's hope they wont pick the same bank with porncash :glugglug

wow so who's left? Ibill, CCBill and Verotel?

Is it the end od the world?

Bad news.

But a simple conclusion is this:

US originating IPS , even if they opened a EU corp. will eventually loose their processing in Europe., even for EU clients.

They will be fine to process US corp in the US.

EU clients will have to find/go with real EU processor.

LOL, and you say Probilling? Get real. If Jettis has their VISA Europe privileges stripped away, what do you think will happen to Probilling in the end?

They will be nuked like all the others, or globilled, or whatever you want to call it.

Folks I keep telling you all there is a UK CC Processor. Less than 10% for Processing :-)

They are happy to work with adult, the only reason I dont post their name is that I am working on a referal basis :-)

With regard to the above post we can (Nochex) offer you a solution for the UK card holders.

Get in touch, for CC Processing [email protected]

for non CC Processing [email protected]

I hope to hear from you :-)

This is one hell of a big annoucement.

Remains to be seen if CCBILL and IBILL EU are hit by this as well.

hmmm so we should contact you for a solid processor using your hotmail addy....sounds very tempting...

No I get your point thing is I worlk for Nochex Mon Fri

so what I try and do on the weekend and evenings is resell billing solutions, after all its all I know about in this adult world.

The company I promote on an evening have the added bonus of being able to offer Nochex within their product.

I have to use my hotmail account as I dont want this mail coming to my work account.

post the name and if its real Im positive people would still signup under you for telling them about it or else you loose all credibility

:2 cents:

actually.. it's good idea.. :2 cents:

yep

Thanks

But at the moment I would rather loose the credibility. I think there is enough people who post here who know me well enough to trust me.

I cant post on this board from home as my ISP is blocked so I have to do it cloak and dagger style.

Dont get me wrong I want every possible lead I can get, by the current issue surrounding processors means my contacts are well sort after.

I have had three mails today from this post, if I post the company name I am not going to get any business and that doober is a fact.

:-)

how can I trust u if ur behaviour is absurd ;-(

So classy to spam in someone else's announcement thread.

Paul is genuine, he has said he is doing this on a referal basis.

He was trying to offer an alternative to not having a CC processor. The original post was an anouncement, Paul was trying to help.

Youy may know him, but do I know him?
Do i know you?
Who am i trusting here and what is the basis of that trust?


My above statement still stands and gurantee he will loose 0 referrals if he does just that.

We've never been one to keep all our eggs in one basket and have been, and continue, to work on an alternate option for our EU clients.

The lack of notice of this event was unfortunate and unexpected as our accounts were in good standing with our EU bank, however we are exhausting all resources to provide another option for our EU clients, ASAP, and will be in communication on the options available moving forward.

Happy Thanksgiving..

Dont blame Jettis..

I dont think I have seen too many outfits that are run better than that one!

I know.. shit one time I got into their office..of course..they threw me out shortly thereafter!

It would be REALLY REALLY nice if CCBill and IBill posted a "don't worry we are still here for our EU clients" announcement in this thread!!!!


cheers,

Luke

just for the record - I don't work for Jettis... :)

jettis are very good company:( pity they have this problem.

the one way out is to use alternative cc processor for eu visa or to re-register account for us company.

i hope soon they'll found a way out..

anyway VISA sucks - they fuck adult biz so fucking hard that even best porn star can't do such a fucking around :)

LOL, I didnt mean you, you should know that.

And I dont particularly think that CCBill or IBill would be so tacky as to spam themselves in a thread about issues Jettis is having, chilihost.

Paul is real, no problem here....

At the end of the day I would figure that Jettis will find a way to take care of their clients as quickly as possible. After all if the clients don't make any money, nor do they.

Bump.

Happy Holidays!!!

:(

woooww!!

We were in the middle of applying for EU based merchant
accounts a few months ago when Netbilling, oxbill, glo-bill and a
few others had trouble with accounts. ECB was setting us up
with a major bank which then dropped their "high risk" clients.
This seems to be the same thing that's happening to CCBillEU
(can't find the email just now) and PSWBilling with holdbacks.

I said at the time that if this kind of thing carries on it could be a
worry for non-US webmasters as the only way forward would be
to incorporate in the US and report to the IRS and US gov.

It's a conspiricy threoy still at this time but it could be that this is
part of a larger plan to force all webmasters to process in the US
which then makes them an easy target for the DOJ.

What's happening with CCBillEU?

Yeah this is pretty big. I hope this isn't the beginning of a bigger problem.

Sorry it was a recent iBill email which I got confused.

-Ben

thank God for Jesus Dialer.

Do you know if IBill ever offered an explanation regarding
why the funds were frozen by their bank?

The Ibill holdback thing is nothing new. I heard it is because their previous bank is withholding their funds, not their current bank.

Would be nice to have some reassuring posts from Ibill nonetheless.

Pretty good summary of the big picture:

Like sheep dogs that keep the pact together ... ready for slaughter.

Ben,

We have some nice solutions now that you may be interested in.
Please contact our sales department or myself directly.

Thanks, Mitch

damn. getting more and more ugly for EU...
