we may not want to see the yahoo numbers. i think they are quite low. there has been a reduction in the cost of processing relative to the processing income over both the 3 and 6 month yr-yr numbers. if there was a large no of people being serviced for free i would think these nos would go up. unless we have implemented cost saving systems i am not aware of. i see a problem with acceptance that has not been addressed yet. how does a payer know if they have enough money in their account to pay their bills? this requires access to the customer accounts, no matter which bank they do business with. this opens up a bucket of snakes but i think it is necessary to accommodate wide and rapid acceptance. is anyone working on this problem? overall the report is better than i expected [or feared]. long term we are ok. a pull back here is a buying opportunity unless it gets carried away. we are definately better positioned than we were last 1/4. we have the barn almost built, bring on the horses.
