I had to really think very hard on this folks. It has been a tough decision process which relates to Stormpays new policy. If you are not aware of their new policy, you can log into your Stormpay account and read it. Basically it is an 'all or none law'. What it amounts to is companies and programs that utilize stormpay MUST ONLY use stormpay or NOT use them at all.

The majority of CoffeeFirst transactions are processed with Stormpay.

However, I cannot allow such ridiculous ever before unheard of contral.

I will NOT allow someone or something to tell me who I can utilize as a payment processor. In my book that's called COMMUNISIM!!!!! And I don't live in a communisitic country nor does CoffeeFirst. I belive in the RIGHT TO CHOOSE. I will NOT allow myself or this company to be dictated by the likes of a payment processor.

It appears to me that Stormpay has gotten too big for it's britches. And it appears they are setting rules so they can simply be the largest payment processor online. Whether it be fraud they deal with or whatever, that type of policy does NOT cut the mustard with me! If a company has a lot of fruad, then they should take steps to correct it NOT implement such a crazy policy as they have adopted.

I do not get mad very often. This has made me mad.

My decision IS to REMOVE Stormpay from CoffeeFirst. We will no longer take Stormpay payments for upgrades nor for product purchases nor for anything at CoffeeFirst. We will no longer payout commissions through Stormpay.

We have many options for upgrading. And we have options for commissions including check. In fact, we just sent a $200 check all the way to one of our distributors in the Phillipines and was notified by that distributor, the check was received. So we do send commission checks to various countries thruout the world by global priority mail.

IF you wish to upgrade your account utilizing Stormpay, you MUST do it before Monday. After Monday, no monies will be accepted utilizing Stormpay.

We will be looking into adding some more payment processors.

Have a great upcoming weekend.
