Too much drama! Visa has been charging the $750 a year fee for holders of their own merchant accounts for a while now. I paid fucking thousands of $$ every month in chargeback fees, credits, discount fees, reserves, etc! Visa is one fucked up company that doesn't give a fuck about the merchants that make it's shit go around. It's not just adult merchants that have problems with chargebacks, many mainstream companies have major chargeback issues also. It's just they don't have to pay the $750 fee because they are "acceptable" types of business. Fuck them. If that's not discrimination against our business, I don't know what is. The only way that VISA, MC and others are going to wake up is if merchants boycott them or a killer alternative payment system is born. Otherwise, we'll always be at the mercy of the cc companies. YEP, EVEN THE BIG DAWGS!
