Visa has frozen the movement of the money (supposedly at the request of the ST Kitts bank.)

Its not like its sitting in epass's account. That actually is one of the added degrees of "safety".

Also if this is about AML, epass, Visa and the bank can pay significant fines and serve jail time for disclosing the details of the investigation. (Visa is a USA based corporation as is Epass which is why they would fall under the long arm of Uncle Sam.)

My bet is you the money will eventually be released after hefty verification and it will take time. What will all you "haters" say then? Will you apologize if it was beyond epass's control and you accusations and venom against Mallick and epass people is completely unfounded.

BTW: any prepaid cards will probably go away eventually because of the new laws. Get a real bank account, bring money into the system and pay taxes that's the purpose of these laws ... disclosure.
