This scares me. Anybody have info on that statement? I'm gonna Google for banking info.
It would be nice to hear from a real banker on the inner workings.
That would mean all merchant accounts have a limited number of transactions they could do per day through Visa and MasterCard. Not just CCbill. I have had a personal merchant account a few times myself and even had one for both Discover Card and American Express - oh and Diners card too. I read every page of the manual each time that I got such a merchant account.
The only restrictions I ever saw were for something called a rolling reserve. I suppose if your reserve was not high enough you could not go past a set amount (not sure 100%). Issue is, that would be next to impossible because reserves are a percentage of your total sales and if that were the case then any smart person would just increase their reserves to keep making money.

Example - Imagine total number of transactions and a store like the 99 cent store or lets get more extreme. Imagine the havoc of a hot dog or beer stand at a major ballpark being limited to a set number of transactions. Pretty damn sure they do more transactions per hour than many billers may do in a day.

Go figure!
Question since you say it is from the US. Are you located in the US right now or are you in Mexico?

I'm pretty shaken up with the accusations made and was hoping to hear more about it.
I responded.
I am more curious why nobody responded to me
