As with most paysite owners I often wonder about 3rd party processers and why some charges are denied (or worse, not even put through). But I've learned, with adult especially, sometimes the problems are way up the financial chain. Wall Street having a bad day, Greece defaults, this excuse or that calamity, sales suffer.
But yeah, if you want to pay and cannot then there's a BIG problem.

Merrick bank makes almost all adult transactions in the US (a couple other banks do and nowhere near Merrick). Clips4sale is based out of Florida and likely uses Merrick bank for 90% of transactions.
CCBill also uses Merrick bank for most transactions.
As does US customers who use Netbilling, Orbital, Ecsuites, etc. etc. etc.
They are flagging adult sales at the bank level. Time to move on from Merrick bank and a lot of these problems will temporarily go away... until the masses of "banks" find the next banking institution to target.
