Paymonde... please, advise
 

I want delete all paymonde passwords from my site rigth now, however english is not native for me and is not so good. Could you, please, advise a message text to put on pages that better to explain members why passwords does not work and that they need to cancel/chargeback paymonde and to re-signup with the new biller?

BigBomb,

Just backup, then delete the contents of the .htpasswd file.

When your members try to log in, they will get an Apache 401 error. You can use .htaccess to point the error to an .html page you make informing your members their login is no longer valid, why it isn't, and how to sign up for your new processor.

Make sure they know how to cancel charges from Paymonde, as well. Let them know they will keep getting charged unless they cancel membership themselves. :2 cents:

Did a quick search on Google and here is a page to help you redirect the Apache 401 error code:

just delet the whole htaccess file........

could you, please, advise what exact text for members do I need to put on pages?

dude thats wrong man. ranting on wont help anyone. your no better than they are. lets do this professionally. your not the only one who lost big $$$

then his member section is wide open to eveyone .... !!!!
BigBomb: do as Nudecanada said.

I heard paymonde keeping to rebill members.. access to stats area is closed.
I think this is criminal planned scam.

yep, shure

Stealing money from webmasters is wrong.

Calling a thief a thief is righteous.

Get your head out of the clouds, Paymonde/MyVirtualCard are a bunch of idiots and I hope that they get what has been coming to them for a very long time.

good suggestion
i am removing all the users right now
i have already emailed over 17 users telling them to concel / reverse the transactions.
I am going to email everyone tonight. Let there be mass chargebacks.

BigBomb,

Write something along the lines of "We are sorry, but due to administrative issues at our current processor, Paymonde, your access has been denied. Please CLICK HERE to cancel your membership, and please re-join HERE with our current processor. We are sorry for any inconvenience."

Maybe offer them a special price to rejoin through your other processor.

I understand you are probably mad as hell, but I would not let your emotions take over if you are trying to get them to cancel and join with another processor. Try be professional about it, as hard as it may be. If you cut down Paymonde, you will probably hurt yourself more than Paymonde.

Also, you don't want the member to become too suspicious or he might not join with your new processor. :2 cents:

We've been through this several times with several processors and it ain't fun watching several thousand dollar wires and checks suddenly disappear. I feel for the Paymonde webmasters....I've had that sick feeling in my stomach many times before. :upsidedow

thank you, nudecanada! great advise!

Many surfers don't know what "processor" means. It would be better to use something easier to understand like "billing company" or "credit card processing service"

Get bumped.
