how safe is my money at ePassporte?
 
I have a bad history with companies that need to send me or at least hold my money.

they die.

and i'm not talking about iBill alone.

what are the chances with ePassporte?

Dalai lama 10-16-2005 12:00 PM

it's safe :thumbsup

Nydahl 10-16-2005 12:02 PM

I think its powered by VISA so its the same as bank account with VISA CC I guess
maybe I am wrong

JFK 10-16-2005 12:02 PM

Your Money is safe with them :thumbsup

LazyBastard 10-16-2005 12:07 PM

If it makes you feel safer, I can keep an eye on your money. :Graucho

well the bank is out of st kits so i dont think they offer the same protection as a regular american bank.

i.e. i dont think your funds are fdic insured

Doctor Dre 10-16-2005 12:38 PM

Judging from the administration in place, I'd say the money is safer there then in paypal.

baddog 10-16-2005 12:39 PM

It is like Fort Knox

Where did you hear St Kitts from?

ePassporte cards are issued by St. Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla National Bank Ltd., Basseterre, St. Kitts, West Indies.

Going offshore is bad............ :winkwink: and taxwise cheaper

We've been paying webmasters with Epassport for the past 6 months with no problems. I think it's managed by the paycom folks so I'm fairly comfortable with it although we don't leave large sums in the account. We only transfer to their bank the amount necessary to do the current webmaster payout so we're only at risk for a day or so at most. :2 cents:

DutchTeenCash 10-17-2005 02:35 AM

im pretty sure theyre not fdic, none of the offshore banks are

woj 10-17-2005 02:37 AM

I would say, probably half way between a russian bank and us bank...

adonthenet 10-17-2005 03:08 AM

i think its pretty safe there..

4Pics 10-17-2005 03:45 AM

The people behind it are stand up people but, your money isn't insured so I wouldn't keep thousands of dollars in your account just to be safe.

blofer80 10-17-2005 04:00 AM

safe (8 chars)

gecko 10-17-2005 04:07 AM

Safe... very safe

Delbert 10-17-2005 04:12 AM

i think it is safe

Vitasoy 10-17-2005 04:24 AM

I have a few k in there, never thought twice about it.

Rebecca Love 10-17-2005 04:27 AM

No worries with my money at Epass. :thumbsup

Something like that... :winkwink:

Epassporte is the only one I never worry about.
I feel my money is safe in there.

EviLGuY 10-17-2005 05:23 AM

I figure its about as safe as lending money to a coke addicted relative. So I never keep much in there. :thumbsup

Cash in hand. The risk of losing some funds due to epassporte suddenly folding is probably less significant than the amount you'd pay in taxes if you declared your ATM withdrawals as income.
