Does anyone have experience with this processor?

Not yet. Have you yet?

Hi JSF,

Please let me know how was your experience with merchantmetro? Did you go with them?

Yes I went with merchant Metro. This is how it went :

June 22 :
Payment for setup fee is transfered to Merchant Metro.

July 1st :
Heard nothing from Merchant metro yet. Requests them to confirm receipt of setup fee.

July 6th :
An account at "UniClear" (www.uniclear.com (http://www.uniclear.com)) is opened in favour of my company by Merchant Metro. We start to integrate the payment gateway in the website, only to realise that "UniClear" gateway is not active.

July 11th :
Message from UniClear/Merchant Metro :
Sorry for the delay in response. We're still working to enable our
merchant processing, I'll let you know as soon as you should try again.

July 13th :
Requesting a date for the finalization of the account / their gateway activation.

July 14th :
Message from UniClear/Merchant Metro :
I'll let you know as soon as it happens. I am unsure as well.

July 17th :
Informing Merchant Metro to get their problems solved by the 21st or cancel the order.

July 24th :
Instructing Merchant Metro to cancel the order and return setup-fee.

July 28th :
Merchant Metro deposits the setup-fee into the "UniClear" account which was opened in favour of my company leaving the bill of the bank-wire transfers to and from my company's bank account with me.

I'll give Merchant Metro the price for most unproffesional company I've ever dealt with! Offering a service which they don't have is completly unacceptable!

Hey,

I have talked with these guys but found pretty quickly that they are scam because they rejected to take credit card payment. They sent me very lucrative emails and I needed them badly but my last email to them was...

"What you are running is called "Advance fee fraud". I am surprised how people fall for you."

Common, they are not a company just a scam. Lesson for you is, never ever send money to anyone through wire transfer.
