saw my station (that I manage) listed and played hell with them trying to
get it taken off the list. I was all for the Priceline card until I saw a
near thousand dollar charge for "transaction fees" on our monthly statement.

P. S since I never jumped on the bandwagon I don't know how they work.
Did you have to run it through the M/C machine? If so, could those
carrier companies be guilty of collusion? Will we hear more, or will
the suits sweep it under the carpet with no charges ever being filed?
