The is a gentle con going on. Imagine setting up a social networking site. Accept visa card to join. Provide less than "Premium" services so people used to more functionality want to opt out. Imagine then only allowing people to opt out by having them phone an international phone number that in only open during business hours (of an unknown continent) and you have to wait an expensively long time until giving up and leaving a message. Imagine then no one ringing back and the next installment comes out of your VISA despite you leaving a message demanding cancellation of the account. An ethical question for VISA. Why can VISA not have a rule for business partners Pay ONLINE, Cancel ONLINE! Ethics, will someone build some ethics in here!!
