That's why I am always curious about people not trusting them. I mean, we should never be blind and always question but unless there is a sign of something besides sales spiking, then I don't see a reason to worry. Mainly because we're dealing with people, there will always be odd trends and spikes. Hell I just went the past two weeks with having all my sales in the first 12 hours of the day and none the next. Two weeks before that, all of them were in the other 12 hour period. Sometimes there are good mornings, sometimes there are bad evenings. When you've been in business long enough, youre going to notice some very strange trends and bad patches eventually.
Also what Chris said
"you do realize that they are CHARGED on denials? Why would they want to deny cards? ;/"

I don't think its unreasonable at all and it does not give me any reason not to trust them. Like everybody else, they have to optimize for themselves. In Visa and Mastercard's eyes, your CCBill sites belong to CCBill and your transactions are their transactions. They have been in the business of keeping Visa and MC and acquiring banks happy longer than most of us, and it would be reasonable to suspect that they are better at it than most of us.
They make their money by managing that relationship and pimping it out to you, so at some point you are going to have to let them or somebody else handle their business their way.
