Good news.

Epass can still go forward if wires outside the US can go thru fine. I really dont need Visa if the "other half" of epass is working fine.

That doesnt ignore the VV fiasco but just saying.

The wallet side of Epass does seem to be working fine. That is a real good sign Epass plans to forge on.

I think you should moderate your exageration datatank.

With the ACH limits would it have even been possible to get xx,xxx out via ACH yet?

And Shap, did you ever consider they could be cherry picking who gets wires processed and who doesn't on the basis of who they want onside when they reincarnate?

In any case, having money that you asked for a week ago finally being debited to your account is not really "great" news is it?

Great...just the person I want handling the situation. And "fights his ass off to make sure we get paid?" It's his company and his fuckup! It's not like we're a union and he's a union head fighting in the trenches to get us our deserved paycheck! Its our $$ in the first place! They lied about when the wires were sent (if they were really sent), they are being incredibly vague about everything and the update yesterday was total bullshit.

And just so we're clear, you support them but you're first in line to empty your wallet? :1orglaugh

it?
YOu are correct I looked and it was only around $6k
I have no idea if it was a wire or an ACH. How am I supposed to tell?
What is the difference?

Alprazolam 09-10-2010 08:02 PM
let's not forget that visa was blamed, but then visa came and fixed the story and said that the bank is the one that turned off epassporte. the bank issues those cards FYI, so they turned off their own cards. just because a couple people of stature are getting their money back, doesn't mean many others won't end up as collateral damage to some actions. although lots of people are going to start patting on the back, don't get anxious, yet.

Exactly. The wire that was supposedly being processed on Friday is finally being "sent" (not received mind you) today. Is this really what its come to? Kissing ass over a week late wire?

Vjo 09-10-2010 08:06 PM
I am so certain of the viability of the Epass Wallet for someone in the US that I would transfer money to the wallet no prob or be paid thru the wallet no prob from anywhere.

If it gets to my wallet. I know I can get it via ACH.

So altho things are more shakey for those outside the US right now, sponsors dont completly write off epass esp for us in the US.

Some sponsors are leaving it up to the wm. That seems like a good way. If the wm takes the risk and if you are also in the US it should still be a viable way to pay wms.

ACH seems pretty solid.

Hey Guys. I’ve been in constant contact with my rep (as well as a few other people) at Epassporte. Personally, the biggest thing I’ve been waiting to see is when wires would start being sent out. In my opinion that is the first step in the right direction. Today I heard one of my two wire requests was approved and sent. I have yet to receive it and as soon as I do I will update everyone. I believe this is the first step in the right direction.

I just wanted to add two things for you guys to think about.

First.. I’ve said this before and I think it’s worth repeating. This industry has had it’s fair share of companies that have gone under and disappeared with people’s money. Chris has been involved in a few situations where his companies ran into difficulties but EVERY single time those companies survived and paid everybody every single penny that was owed. I have never heard of a single person that Chris Mallick has screwed over. You may not like the guy but everything I’ve ever read shows that in a situation like this you WANT Chris Mallick involved. He’s our best chance at survival and getting paid. He fights his ass off and does whatever possible to make sure his clients get paid. That is huge in my opinion.

Second... You guys have to remember the people at Epassporte are human, they can read, and they have good memories. If you treat them like shit and rip them to shreds you can be DAMN sure it isn’t doing you any favors. I’ve seen this in the past. People that attack and try to bury a company usually get fucked the hardest. Those that are supportive and hopeful are usually the first to get paid. It’s human nature. Put yourself in their shoes. If you had 10 people that were supportive and 10 people that were real assholes. Who would you pay first? Might want to consider that before making your next post.

To those of you that think MiddleMen caused this. Are you kidding? Do you know how hollywood works? That movie started 3 years ago. He had all the money put aside in escrow back then. You think the big name stars he had would show up for a nobody if the money wasn’t guaranteed? Come on. The timing is ironic but that’s all it is.

All in all I think this is a step in the right direction. I’ve done a lot of research this week. I’ve made a lot of phone calls. There has been a lot of information posted that really makes the situation look bad. I’ll be honest I’ve been worried. But for every bad thing I’ve seen posted I’ve heard a good thing from people with some REAL knowledge of what’s going on. Obviously nobody is saying it publically because if it turns out to not be true the mob will turn their attention towards them. That said I think with funds starting to be released people should tone it down a little. People reporting this to the news, calling the feds etc is retarded. Have you read the posts on here this week? There are some great posts and some intelligent people HOWEVER for every great post there are 10 retarded ones. Our industry is under enough stress as it is. We don’t need any more.

Give the man time. If the wires went out today it’s a huge step and shows Epassporte is far from dead. Supporting them gives us a better shot of getting paid than attacking them.
wow, I would have waited till the money showed up before giving them such a great endorsement there.

a lot of retarded posts on gfy? no way... lol

The "mob", I love the people who use that phrase on here, its pretty comical. Besides the always present troll posts, the "mob" as you people refer to it in this case were people freaking out because they were worried about paying their bills and they couldn't get any answers.. how dare that mob not sit on their hands and patiently wait.

I like Michael but don't like epasporte and they can block me if they like... oh wait my bank (CHASE) blocked THEM about 3-4 years ago so I can't use them anyway.


Glad to hear you SHOULD be getting your money, please update everyone and give epass a pat on the back when the wire actually goes through. Hopefully EVERYONE will get their wires, that will be a nice start since epass claimed that there was no issue with the wallet/wires. Then everyone will have to wait to see what happened with the VV situation and how that plays out.

Pure speculation but...

An ACH is coming from one US account to another. Those funds are not frozen. What happens when those funds become limited?

Again, I dont have any knowledge of their inner workings but it seems pretty obvious that the funds being received via ACH are originating from a different US based account, not tha bank account(s) affected in St Kitts.

"Past results are no guarantee of future performance".

This is an ever changing situation and caution and constant re-evaluation should be exercised. Yes wallet withdrawals to cards and via ACH have been working, but does that mean they will continue to work indefinitely?

How damaging will all these new threads and allegations prove? The situation and examination of epassporte's operation, and associations has clearly escalated over the last week, and I don't think that is a positive PERSONALLY. I have stated in other threads that these comments and accusations don't help anybody.

Strangely, the same goes for overly pro-epassporte statements by key industry figures.

Whilst we all have our own degrees of confidence or otherwise in the situation being satisfactorily resolved for all, these are our OWN opinions and people should treat them as such but people like Shap who is considered very knowledgeable and respected in this industry, is an AUTHORITY FIGURE and as such should IN MY OPINION be especially careful how endorsing he is.

Nothwithstanding the fact that most people noticed that whilst patting Chris Mallick on the back with one hand, the other hand was busy withdrawing his own cash.

Anyway, not knocking Shap. Not knocking epassporte. Just making a personal observation.

Yeah not sure. I do know that epass for US to US is sort of redundant too as we can either use ACH directly with the sponsor or checks.

I have a couple sponsors "overseas" tho I am worried most about. I have looked into a couple of the European systems but they all come up short to epass.

Epass is able to somehow connect direct to ACH. That is where all the other European systems come up short. They mostly have to issue you a card which has tarifs and more mullarkey.

Most foreign sponsors do wires but then have either a high min or high fees so a viable worldwide epass is still badly needed for those in the US.

:thumbsup:thumbsup well said and i agree totally..Let us not forget something still IS NOT straight forward at epass..they got fucked with for a REASON...and they don't want to say what that reason is

KarupLou 09-10-2010 08:55 PM
Congrats Shap! I spoke to Chris earlier via text message earlier and it's definitely on it's way :). He just needed time which of course not many people have the respect or patience to give him on this board but whatever to each his own opinion I guess so I'll leave my opinion too. Chris is as stand up of a guy as they come. I don't care if u believe it or not but he is. What's the worst case scenario for me here? That U will flame me for my 250 post count Lmfao! Shap u r my boy from the earliest of days in this biz and a complete class act thru and thru. And Chris Mallick u r my boy for life. Handle your biz my friend. Don't let these guys stop u from doing what u gotta do. They don't know and will never know what kind of person u r even after they get paid which is sad but that's the way life is so I get that. Chris Mallick is the man! He escrowed all 20 million plus advertising money of the middlemen movie money 3 years b4 any of u on GFY ever even heard of Middlemen so he didn't use your funds to produce the movie. Give the man some time and a chance to do right by u. I'm confidant he won't disappoint any of u. That's my thoughts take it or leave it. Flat out!

gleem 09-10-2010 09:02 PM
heh, the bro's are getting paid, on the other hand people only pulling out $x,xxx or $xx,xxx or $xxx are getting stonewalled with BS paperwork requests they have already.

Big surprise.

I've heard great stories about him too, however all the guy has to do is tell us what happened, and give a REAL update a couple times a week and that would prove he has half a soul.

I have affiliates in not so friendly banking areas crying to me about having to borrow money for food and rent forget about paying hosting and banner buys and stuff. They keep asking me if I heard anything...

if he's such a standup guy, why wasn't there more notice, why hasn't he come here to answer any questions? He might be out feeding starving puppies in Uganda, but simply telling us WTF is going on would go a long way to me believing he's a stand up guy.

If something like my bank account got hacked & drained, last thing I would do is make up some BS and let my affiliates hang in the wind, I know you wouldn't do that either Shap.

So congrats on your bro-wire shap, glad you got your hostages out, maybe you, Lou, and some bro-thers can implore chris to post some real news and let us know what's up.

vicki 09-10-2010 09:09 PM
two very important things are being overlooked here .... the bank(s) used and Visa!

The card associations (in this case Visa) have stringent regulations. The banks are obligated to adhere to those regulations or risk having assets frozen and their card usage (be it V or MC) pulled altogether.
Some banks take those regulations more seriously than others and the processors utilizing said banks KNOW exactly how well (or not) that bank is following the regs.

This is no happenstance - anyone who knows the banking / MA industry knows certain banks are volatile .. it's a simple fact.

It isn't the first time Visa smacked those banks and it won't be the last ... I'm just sayin

camchoice 09-10-2010 09:13 PM
Hallelujah, good news, thanks shap I needed that. Unfortunately the hate squad also woke up again.

I totally agree with shap, haters are going to be hated, be careful. My parents thought me to never bite the hand that feeds me, and I have a shitload of sandwiches on epassporte :disgust

BVF 09-10-2010 09:15 PM
a notification of cash ACTUALLY being in the account would easily shut the haters up....Why start this whole thread based on a NOTIFICATION?....Why make a thread saying "wire sent", when he SHOULD be making a thread called "wire RECEIVED".

this is heartfelt and I'm sure you believe what you are saying..so would you also say ( from a business point of view) the 20+million that was escrow 3 years ago, will never be made back on Middlemen ? I do know how the movie biz works and the money part ...so does, Chris Mallik 20 million to flush down the toilet? I'm not calling him a bad guy or even that he didn't anything wrong...but he obviously made a huge gamble that DID NOT pay off.. does he have that much to give away? My guess is NO. His heart may be Pure as the driven snow, and he is rich , but not rich enough to lose 20-30 million in the wind.

KarupLou 09-10-2010 09:22 PM
Gleem I had very little money in epass at the time this all went down so I didn't have any money to lose or gain. I simply believe in Chris. And I truly feel bad for the people affected by this. I'm a very generous and compassionate person. All I'm asking give him some time to work things out. He's doing his best to get things righted asap. Things have gone smooth for years and now things get messed up for him and everyone else all without warning. Just allow him the chance to make it right before lynching him. That's all im saying. He dont have a bro network. 1 dollar or 1 million owed is the same to him. Please just give him a chance is all im saying. I have respect for most people here and I don't post much but just allow him the chance and opportunity to get u guys straightened out. Don't judge him by other companies actions. I know companies have fucked ppl in the past including myself and my partners. It's happened twice to us by DMR and then WTS. So I feel the pain and I'm concerned for everyone affected but please just let him have a chance to work it out.

ShellyCrash 09-10-2010 09:30 PM
Shap's wire getting initiated is a step in the right direction.

For what its worth, what Shap is doing is what I think we all should be doing, only have funds sitting in a 3rd party account you need to be there to pay who you need to pay.
Your money can either earn points for you or points for them.

Yes, from our point of view that have been here as long as you, we've all heard this song and dance from every other big crashing company, they were all great, they were all too big to fail, they all had friends that stuck up for them, they all had people kissing their asses in threads in the hopes it would get them a payout (not saying you are at all, quite the contrary you would be in the friend category), then we got the trolls, the flamers, the pathetic and the desperate. With each crisis it's the same song and dance, history repeats itself. In these threads I tend to make posts like these categorize it as you will but in my head it makes me think it will get a few more people either paid, or over the pain & denial, and moved to the next category, acceptance.

Same shit different crisis till proven otherwise. In all the crisis, a few bigger names get paid, the smaller masses have no chance.


WTS fucked you? The current WTS company? I'd like to hear that story, deserves it's own thread.

xxweekxx 09-10-2010 09:32 PM
its funny how people are suddenly "believing in chris" he has a shitty track record, he has fucked up companies in the past, and he is a douche bag for that movie. haha

btw nobody has gotten a wire.. "wire sent, and wire received" are two different things.lol

I cant count how many people have told me "money is on the way" and i never got shit

Yes notifications are good news, it is a step in the right direction and proves that people at epassporte are working on it.

I really can't believe epassporte would bother to send bogus emails to shut up the haters on gfy. Wire received will be next :thumbsup

KarupLou 09-10-2010 09:50 PM
Gleem WTS now is legit. This was way back in early 2000's by different operators and it wasnt the current team. The new guys r legit. It was their bank at that time that fucked them and we lost money and we heard same ole song and dance. We eventually lost and paid affiliates out of our own pockets till they resolved things which they did to a certain extent several months later. No need to start old drama. That's old news but I feel peoples pain. I've watched this thread carefully from minute one and I'm rooting for everyone to Chris to the guy owed 20 bucks. Regarding the old WTS. We paid out what was owed to affiliates way before we got anything back. Bottom line is chris is a friend and all of u r my peers. Im rooting for all here. Im in here telling u my honest thoughts and experiences and stand to gain nothing other than seeing everyone happy sooner before later but just please give him the respect and presumption of innocence until u or anyone else has solid reason to think or say otherwise. Chris is the last person on earth that would want this to happen but it did and he will do everything he can to get it worked out asap.

Money that is earned and owed is VANISHING in thin air.
- Sponsors are closing up shop and not paying out the last amounts owed.
- Webmaster Checks gets accounts frozen. Sponsors still have not received a penny of their own money back from Webmaster Checks.
- Epassorte

Before this Epass situation I had already been screwed for more in 2010 than all of my 14 years in adult COMBINED! This shit is crazy and I know it's only the tip of the iceberg. We are nowhere near the turning point imo.

I'm taking this epassporte situation as a HUGE Wake Up Call. We run a tight ship here but I'm going to tighten things up even more. Going to really be careful with who I do business with and that includes sponsors, affiliates, billers, whatever.

Have recent events changed how you are going to run your business moving forward?

Shap and other large players actually receiving their wires will only be good news if it is followed by a chorus of normal people adding "yes and me too!"

Agreed. I really doubt epass is suddenly next week or soon going to fold and noone can login. I believe from reading all this the last week that they WANT to do biz as usual.

Still, if I had to wire $20,000 to the Wallet to pay epass affils and the VV funds were still outstanding, I would have reservations.

Actually I would not do it and I dont expect anyone else to do it.

I will still transfer a few hundred in from checking if I need to make payments (and the wallet is empty) but not many 1000's as sponsors must do. I trust them with 100s not 1000s :)

So all is very shakey until the VV funds are returned. Which I guess wont be anytime soon.

lets not forget shap said he had to place phone calls, etc, to get his wire sent out.. he knows some top people there, and they also know him.... usually when a company folds, they pay out the big dogs who can afford lawyers, etc, then all the little people get screwed.lol

I'm starting to think were all fucked and Epassporte is too. :)

I tried to keep the positive face on but it dont look good for Epassporte for at least a month. And by then.. we'll all have moved on to new payment methods.

Maybe we'll come back. But this not having a quick conclusion (I think by today Friday is a quick conclusion) really hurts Epassporte and us all. It aint over but Epass is in a world of hurt.

Besides I've seen xxweekxx stats somewhere on gfy before and have learned (finally) those guys are usually right. :) j/k

So I guess it is time to forget about epass for a while. I'll go back to work now and wait for Mr Mallick's next letter. :)

Great PR and publicity stunt from Epassporte paying you shap.... I am sure you know this as well...

Too many webmasters are fucked still...

This is a step in the right direction... but until they come clean with the REAL reason VV funds were frozen there is absolutely no reason to trust they plan to continue business or make people whole. I really hope Monday we get an idea of what's going on. Absent that, epass is toast, which is very unfortunate.

He just needed time which of course not many people have the respect or patience to give him on this board but whatever to each his own opinion I guess so I'll leave my opinion too. Chris is as stand up of a guy as they come. I don't care if u believe it or not but he is. What's the worst case scenario for me here? That U will flame me for my 250 post count Lmfao! Shap u r my boy from the earliest of days in this biz and a complete class act thru and thru. And Chris Mallick u r my boy for life. Handle your biz my friend. Don't let these guys stop u from doing what u gotta do. They don't know and will never know what kind of person u r even after they get paid which is sad but that's the way life is so I get that. Chris Mallick is the man! He escrowed all 20 million plus advertising money of the middlemen movie money 3 years b4 any of u on GFY ever even heard of Middlemen so he didn't use your funds to produce the movie. Give the man some time and a chance to do right by u. I'm confidant he won't disappoint any of u. That's my thoughts take it or leave it. Flat out!
yeah there nerve of some people to get nervous and excited about having money tied up and not getting any real info... I lost money to DMR, Glowbill, Ibill....

and btw...

Not really even sure how Epass works or what has exactly happened, but isn't the money "frozen" already peoples hard earned money?

How is this guy in any way a "hero" for getting people their money? I wouldn't expect anything less.. surely doesn't deserve a separate props thread.

Shap as always been that way... it wasn't as bad as 12 hours but in the past he has gone from one extreme to another on topics more than a few times. Anyone remember cross sales ?

Yeah no shit. "wire being sent" couldn't they be lieing or another excuse be made tomorrow or the next day about some other hold ups, backups or whatever. Point is that you have to trust that they are telling "wire being sent" is true. But all along he said your money was safe in the wallet and that the wires would be going out" why weren't you so trusting then and writing to the mob, trolls, haters, to settle down and give it time. Either way it's just words that you need to trust them untill you actually see the cash arrive.
