Does this sound like an opinion of someone who thinks their company is the leader in internet banking?

>>Basically that means make your name Teleb@nk, the internet brand for banking.<< #reply-6865478

From the same post:

>>This company can get profitable anytime they wish, they just stop the growing their market share.<<

Gee, imagine that. NTBK has been profitable while gaining market share. Perhaps at a higher rate as well.

>>TBFC has been branchless for 10 years. NTBK for 2.

How long they been Internet? You mean they been in business for 10 years, and aren't profitable doing what they do? Or are they now showing a profit?

So they are migrating to the Internet(a natural progression), and dubbing themselves a leader(a fallacy)?

Little old NetBank has been in business for a few short years, and IS profitable.

I like 'em both too, and admit I haven't followed TBFC as much, so maybe you can help give some answers to these questions.

Who was the first to offer Internet banking?

Who was the first profitable Internet bank?

Who was the first to offer online brokerage services?

Who was the first to offer online bill payment?

Who was the first to offer online mortgages?

Who is riding on whose shirt tails offering a secondary, second?

Seems to me that TBFC saw NTBK offering a secondary, and figured they could use NTBK's exposure to getting people interested in their newest venture on the Internet.
