Facts regarding iBill's desire to leave adult: "Meanwhile, Forbes said, it turns out that matters like chargebacks and related headaches that typically surround the adult Internet - not to mention the nature of the beast itself - have apparently given a migraine for InterCept, which bought iBill last year but now tells Forbes they're looking to "focus our sales effort on mainstream business." Apparently, Forbes suggested, taking on iBill proved just a little too hot for InterCept to handle, even if iBill and similar companies, as Forbes described them, "act somewhat as policemen by weeding out extra-sleazy operators and frauds."

Yep, iBill's system is a dinosaur from a technology standpoint; even more reason to try to support it better or be more communicative about the problems being encountered. Communications goes a long way towards having satisfied customers. Of course having guys like you prattle on by reading the company line has an effect too but I'll let you figure out if the 80% think that is a good thing.
Wax on, wax off Daniel-san.

Good articles Lude, but you are quoting Forbes articles etc, and not actual iBill reports.
And for the warchest, you are quoting stock prices. The cash at hand for Intercept is a fucking huge load of cash, and their "POSITIVE" cashflow is a problem I wish I had
And their stock price in part collapsed because of their preparedness to enter our market place
And yes, their code is outdated,and Intercept will have to update it, which they have said they will do
And yes,I wish they could communicate more, but as I said earlier, they are a public company, and theyjust cannot plaster any old crap they like on these boards. Every question I ask iBill is answered when I ring them. And for that part, why dont you ring your account manager at WSB, PayPal or DMR.
iBill is still there, paying checks every week to our community
So why not cut them some slack?
