If you don't like Paxum's disclosure level don't use them.

you people really really miss the big picture. Did knowing who was behind epass help everyone get their money back, no... but
You have to look at things from a risk stand point. Generally speaking, a company that doesn't want to give out a lot of information, such who owns it, where it is located etc... makes the level of risk go up that much higher vs a company who is willing to give you the same information. Simply put, if a company doesn't want to disclose who owns it, then how hard is it going to be for them to close up shop, keep your money, reopen another company in the future, do it all over again.
Besides the obvious facts of once you know who owns it you can check their past history to see if it is someone worth dealing with, if they are willing to put their name out there and stand behind their product I would be willing to bet they will try a lot harder to keep things going, especially when there is problems vs a company that you have no idea who owns it just simply saying, "fuck it, lets close up, who's is going to come after us or bad mouth us, no one knows who we are".
There is no way to avoid risk when another company handles your money, all you can do is try to get as much information as you can to asses your risk and try to reduce it as much as possible. When a company is secretive and not forthcoming with basic information, that should set off red flags and make your risk meter go up!!
don't think like a simpleton "well what good did it do us for epass" use your noggin and try to look at this from a rational, business decision making process.
