I have a question regarding how far does a customer's authorization go? Our bank is experiencing several charges, identified as POS, from an Internet service provider for customer accounts, which at the time of the charges, were closed with zero balances. The bank sends the network a balance file every night to The Midwest Money Access Services (MAC). When customer account balances are zero or the account is closed, how could the charges continue to be charged to the bank? When we talk with MAC representatives, they say that the service provider has the authority toinitiate the charge based on the prior customer authorization. They say this situation is like a recurring loan payment.

DirectPointe provides managed computing services that include remote PC and Network Management services. We are working with a community bank in Utah that is interested in our services, but is concerned with any regulatory issues that may not allow us to have remote access to their network and PCs (since their network is connected to a service bureau, which has confidential information). Can you provide any information/insight into this issue? Can we provide remote services and if so, does our company need to meet certain requirements? Please let me know if you have recommendations.

Our Internet Service Provider just went broke, leaving us high and dry. We're gun-shy about choosing a new one because we thought we knew what we were doing the first time. It isn't like this is the kind of service where the vendors have been in business for 20 years, and it's not like we have a whole lot of choices. It's been a bad experience. Any advice?
