This matter cannot be allowed to rest; there is too much money involved and people's business lives are at stake.

I suggest that if you don't like DEA's posts, just don't read them. No one is forcing you to read them and there is an "Ignore" button if you cannot control yourself enough to not read DEA's posts on your own.

Although DEA is almost rabidly attacking ePass, its management and reps, so have many others including myself. I do not foresee but do hope for satisfactory conclusion of this matter and will be very happy if it works out in a positive way.

I know the misery of having funds locked up in a payment service. I once had over $20K tied up for an extended period and repeated verifications, myriad phone calls and hundreds of emails failed to get them out for nearly 180 days. Wasn't ePass although I think I still may have an ePass account, I never used it. I distrusted the operation from the time I signed up and more or less forgot about it after that. I always thought that the lack of prooper verification procedures would lead to problems and indeed they did but I'm not saying "I told you so!" because I could have been wrong and to do so would be hurtful to tohers.

Don't ban DEA; he does have his place here I think. Even kings needed their Fools for entertainment and advice and forums need their pundits.

I vote not only "NO!" but "HELL NO!" for banning DEA.
