let's say.... it's an "insurance just in case" if you want to put it that way.

Let me ask you a question: when was the last time someone insisted you to use some service "for your own good" which ended being for your own good and not money in the service provider's pocket? I can't remember a single instance in my life.

Another question: you have a national bank, VISA and an anonymous bank account (that's what a wallet is): what of these 3 options will you choose to keep your money safe? Don't hurry in answering, look out how well it worked for those trusting Epass wallet.

Yet another point: Epass and the likes had to pay for transactions to VISA and SKNANB. That's where it all ended. Then, they decided to have a "wallet" feature with more costs for them just because they were so warm felt and honest, just "for your own good". And of course, they insisted everybody to use this feature with higher costs for them. How generous.

want more? OK. Epass signed a contract with SKNANB for financial services, and through SKNANB, they signed a contract with VISA as a 3rd party provider. All cool and dandy. However, the "wallet feature" is the most common way to circumvent the controls by VISA and banks since the money has at least a 3 stops circuits (usually 6 or more) and the real money always ends in a black hole where nobody knows the amounts nor who the money belonged to

Do you really have a valid and logic argument against the above? I bet you don't

Anyway, feel free to do what you want, I'm telling things like they are, after that, you can play Russian roulette as much as you want. I just can tell you the Epass story didn't end yet, and be ready to see how it unfolds. I predict yet another movie
