One of two things I need to say here. Either:
1) You have been downing a few too many cocktails, and you thought this was a good way to get your sig noticed, or
2) You have received information from someone you trust, but havent bothered confirming the info with people like me first.
If this is a fact (and that is a big "IF" at this stage), then I havent heard about it from my many sources.
So, b4 this thread gets out of hand, would you mind giving me a buzz sometime so I can start cross referencing your info.
I too have been sitting on some mighty info, but b4 scaring the bejesus out of everyone I try to get multiple confirmations first.
And on that point, every time I have received any billing info, I have always called you to advise you. So to be honest, I am not sure what is happening here?
And to add much more to all of that, you know I have a copy of the latest VisaNet regulalations that are coming into force on October 1, and there is no mention of chargeback rates going this low
Mate - all I am saying is that your post is very confusing, and midly unsettling. Not for what you are saying, but in how you are saying it.

Thanks for you considered and detailed response. I wouldn't expect anything less from you - "Evil" Dan.
My response to your points follow -
I don't drink.
I really not at liberty to say anymore, for now. I mealy asked the question, to see if anyone else had been privy to this info and in an attempt to double confirm same. If they did via ICQ/e mail I then planned to discuss further with a couple of people, including yourself, prior to making a statement.
In the rapidly changing environment we now operate, opportunities are lost by the time you obtained Iron Clad confirmations from various sources on any particular issue. Again I draw you attention to the nature of the post - Question not Statement.
The latest tightening up of regs by Visa may just be a prelude to further tightening. That is once they have softened us up to 1% why not make it .75 or .50 of 1%- if they can get away with it ?
They seem to be doing this just fine without any significant problems. Like the old saying " Give them an inch and they will take a mile" They would not announce a lower percentage rate till they get everyone to below 1%. One step at a time. .in a very surgical plan.
I am sorry if you find my post "mildly upsetting" by to be forewarned is to be forearmed! By raising the question and to engender discussion on same is better than lying down and passively - "Taking It"
.....again it was just a question !
You're still my (Straight-ish) Aussie Mate "Evil" Dan. As I'm sure you are to many, wise webmasters that are part of Hard Profits.
