Subject: ePassporte Message from Chris Mallick We at ePassporte are as distressed as you, our valued cardholders, over an action that we did not see coming and as of today we still have received no good basis for it. First, be assured that your funds are fully safe and protected. You are owed that and it will be fulfilled. The funds are secure. Second, ePassporte is working with the St. Kitts bank to work out how all payments will be made and when. The details are complicated, because there are funds in motion and where and when they settle requires us to all be careful that we fully and properly account for all those funds and their rightful owner. This issue stems from our processing and reporting ability through the Visa system and their processor. Third, ePassporte's most important asset has always been our account holder's. We are not going to undermine that asset by treating cardholders in any manner other than the best we can. Most of us have had the unfortunate experience of dealing with banks and card associations that simply "cut us off" and did not pay us. Those actions were limited to card acquiring (merchant accounts), not card issuing, which is what we do. We can all take some comfort in the fact that this situation is not anything like the acquiring side of the business. We all fully understand that communication to our cardholders is critical. However, it does not help any of us if we are constantly updating you on the basis of the calls that take place almost hourly. It seems to us that giving you facts, based on agreements we are working on is the best form of communication. This is what we will be doing. When we know something, that is a fact, we will report it, quickly. Our staff is all working diligently to resolve these issues and the many moving and complicated parts of getting the funds returned. Therefore, please do not mistake our silence as "hiding", "avoiding" or "stringing you along". We too have funds that are stuck in the system, as well as massive costs of operation without any income. Rest assured that when we know, you will know and you will all be satisfied with the results. Again, your money is safe. For those of you that have been in the industry for many years, I hope you will recall that I have a very strong track record of fighting for the rights of webmasters, program sponsors, billing companies, merchants and the industry; that dedication continues. Thanks you for your understanding in this difficult time and for your support over the last 8 years of our operations. Chris Mallick For ePassporte |
I see one really bad thing in this... All of you are step by step believing that the money is gone so it's easier for epassporte to do that...

Hence Epass should have/should be releasing statements with more than bullshit to tell us, so that they can calm the issue. When you say NOTHING for a week besides "its complicated", people start to think the worse, etc. Classic crisis management situation, managed like shit. :disgust I wasn't worried about epass sorting things and getting us our money, but with all the panic generated at this level, everyone will jack their cash outta there first chance, which will destroy epass = bankruptcy = pennies on the dollar. All of this because they just left us out here to speculate with no facts whatsoever, and lots of dodging. :mad: |
where's our free middle men DVD?

Don't panic!
It only makes things worse, and usually MUCH worse! Never helps. How stupid is that to flood support, and ring all the bells trying to get something that stuck in your VISA, suppose you get that money killing Epassporte along the way, then what next? Many of us depend on Epassporte, of course there are ways to go without it, but it make things much easier. Someone already mentioned it and I concur: I would be even ok with something like "help keep epassporte in business" Wallet, with half of the money that currently in my account frozen in this wallet there for a while, but with Epassporte alive and VISAs working! Epassporte served us so well all this years, why tearing it now? It is an opportunity for us to show some collective consciousness, let's not panic, behave rationally and be willing to help keep Epassporte in business. |
It's Friday, if this isn't solved by the end of the business day I'm going to start getting worried.

Wow! I think this thread will get 3000 replies today! Only 92 left!

|
I want to eat real food now..Any updates?
|
Has anyone tried to get in touch with Chris Mallick directly?
|
Dear Mr Mallick,
I understand my money were used as well to make your (our) Movie, so I am asking you to puy my name in the cast crew as a co-producer. Thank you beforehand. |
So when's the next update Michael? Next Friday? :(

Just called Epass to request an update on my $xx,xxx wire request sent a week ago. Routed to an Indian call center, where the guy told me that he couldn't locate my account. NOT GOOD.

After reading a lot of threads Mallick might be doing us a favor in a way. No I am not giving the guy props. If he funded all the crap that I have been reading about and its all been a big loss. If it was either shut down Epassporte Visa or take the loss and loose everything. So he shuts down Epassporte Visa he does this when most sponsors have either loaded or paid there people. This locks in millions into an interest paying bank. Every day more interest grows on this acount. When he makes back the interest that is needed to keep Epassport sovent, then he will release the funds.
Yes his company Epassport takes a huge hit, but he will still have it. How long will things be tied up, well until he gets enough intrest to pay off his debts on bad projects. So what happens now, until the right amount of intrest is made on the money, it will be stuck. I figure when the cards are turned back on it will come out that he worked with visa and got the cards turned back on. He then becomes a hero to everyone, when in fact it was him who shut the cards off. I may be wrong but this is how I see it. |
