Here is some BAD news that is EXTREMELY GOOD!!!!!

I have spent this evening setting up more of the merchant accounts and scheduling my payments for automatic payments. It started out as a very frustrating and slow evening at about 8:00 PM PST on the West Coast. Being persistent I did not give up and logged back hourly until 11:PM (PST again). The server speed at 11:00PM (west coast) was LIGHTENING fast.

WHAT DOES THAT TELL US GUYS and GALS???

They are having a very bad capacity problem responding to inquiries or account activity earlier in the evening. I take that BAD news as VERY GOOD NEWS for Investors. This means huge new account activity and is coincidental with the new advertising campaign. 2+2=4.

Does anyone else have another explanation?. If so I would like to hear it.

Now dont blame my 56K modem and the phone company (MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS THAT THE PHONE COMPANY WAS THE CULPRIT).So I checked the speeds of other sites (like www.fntn.com which have almost no traffic at night) using a couple of different windows. Only the USAB site was slow. It can only mean GOOD BUSINESS GOING ON unless there was a glitch just in the earlier time frame (possible but I dont think so).

After sending them some stinky e-mails earlier in the evening, I have sent them a final one for the day withdrawing the earlier complaints and just requested them to add new server capacity.

USABanc.com this evening has returned to a totally silky smooth operation. Will keep checking it at different times and keep you folks posted. Maybe it is Friday so the public is in restaurants etc. at this time of the day.
