At what point did we give permission to send our money outside the stability of the Visa Intl. system? At the point that epass told us our cards were in danger and we needed to move it into the "wallet" for safety.
This is what all of these services do, they pool the funds into one bank account that draws interest for them. In the USA I am almost 100% positive that they are required to keep the funds intact 100% to be legal. Considering how epassporte is setup I have no idea if it is true for them. My argument was with the statement that "omg, they have to steal your money to stay in business!" That is b/s and it would make the whole thing a ponzi scheme which is explicitly illegal.
