Dear Probilling Merchant,

As you well know, these have been challenging times for all online credit card processing companies. We have decided to concentrate on our rapidly growing market of alternative payment processing solutions. ACH processing is the future of online commerce and is the most viable solution for eBusiness transactions. As part of our new focus, we are offering our existing account holders a preferred rate on our ACH processing.

Effective Midnight EST Tuesday Jan 20, 2004:

SmartCheck at 7%

DirectCheck at 10.5%, with No NSF's, No reserves, No chargebacks and instant proBilling account funding

Due to the increased scrutiny by the credit card associations we feel that we can no longer offer reliable credit card processing as part of our portfolio of services. We have decided to withdraw from Visa and MasterCard high risk processing according to the following schedule:

MasterCard: Immediately

Visa: Midnight EST Tuesday Jan 20, 2004

All accounts at our acquiring banks remain open and in good standing. All proBilling account holder's FUNDS ARE COMPLETELY SECURE; weekly holdbacks and regular payouts will be dispersed as usual. Your account will remain open and accessible at www.proBilling.com. All password management functions, consumer and merchant services will be operating as normal.

This is NOT the closure of another online processor. This is a business decision made to focus on the future of online processing and we look forward to a long and prosperous business partnership with our valued merchants.

Damn sorry to see that happen to you Chop

Thanks; surfn, digifan and Kevin.

The ol' Chop has learned not to sweat the small stuff. The problem is that ccBill says that it takes 7 to 21 days to get Visa approval. We will just keeping building until we get it worked out and then we will come out with a hand full of sites at one time.

Kevin that will also give you a chance to turn a loose of some of your private content.

Judy, I ran out of shirts in your size while in Vegas. Got some on order but I can send you a big one to sleep in.

Chop you ain't going to believe this but I spent 2 days sorting thru and selecting 30,000 images specifically for pay sites and now I will start on the latest sets. I'm not putting these in the content store they will only be sold to pay site owners and no more than 3
