Is DiabolicXXX down? When I click to pay by credit card I go to a Glo-Bill web site that says Signups are no longer being accepted.

Maybe the problem is Glo-Bill? I haven’t been able to go anywhere in their site for a couple of weeks.

The short answer to this is that Glo-Bill was one of the processors who had all kinds of wacky payment models and options that allowed their sponsored merchants to make more money, but in a more shady way (free trials, upsells, cross-sells and who knows what else). Not that Diabolic fell into this category, but I'm sure many others of Glo-Bill's customers did.

So, I don't think their chargeback threshold was going to stand up to visas new 1% rule. So from what I understand, GloBill, PayCom, & PSWBilling (and others) are done. Those of us who hope to be in it for the long term don't try to use shady billing techniques to rip off our customers, and for Jerkoffzone.com we use CCBILL, a company that I feel is reputable and honest.
