In addition to this, X.com now has a $100 average monthly minumum balance. Violators will be charged a $12 (yes, that's correct) monthly account maintenance fee. I'm guessing that in both cases (PayPal and X), people simply aren't keeping the amount (...) (25 years ago, 6-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

As soon as I got notification I canceled my account. $12 a month is ridiculous, I hope I can still sign up for a paypal account, and not be disqualified because I once had an x.com account. I will use these services as long as they remain free, any (...) (25 years ago, 6-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

(...) Could someone clarify this point? Where is this information located and to which types of accounts does it apply? I scanned the terms of service at x.com but didn't find this information, just a fee schedule. -- Richard (25 years ago, 7-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

It's rather hard to find, I just went looking for it again and I can't seem to locate it. I think (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

One problem they have for credit cards is that there isn't much competition in the credit card world (or can a business pick a card servicing agent the same way the consumer gets to pick the bank which handles their account?).

(...) Yes, merchants can choose a servicing agent or bank. There are lots out there. Even Costco is getting into the act, contracting with a servicer to provide CC service to executive memebers for 1.75% (or maybe less - I didn't notice). Other than (...)

(...) X.com and Paypal accounts were never merged. Paypal turned into "X Paypal" and X.com turned into "X Finance". You can see the radio buttons on their home page. /Eric McC/ (25 years ago, 13-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)
