@Balinor - the setup fee in my opinion is very much on the high side (come on... even whole server set-ups and moves are cheaper, if we are being honest) i.e. I don't think it was explained at all in the post why this level was required or this approach...
Really, we are intitled to our comments in here Balinor, it is just up to others to decide, if they agree or not.
Remember the whole reason many (I suspect most) of us took the "open source" approach was to avoid endless ongoing monthly fees (so this is not the ultimate solution).

Yes you are entitled to your opinion, what you are NOT entitled to are baseless accusations about things you have no idea about. Do you know what it takes to set up a shared hosting environment? Do you know what it takes to keep thousands of customers updated with the latest information on this mess? Do you have to field 1000 emails a day asking what the options are? No, you don't. So until you do, keep your 'comments' to things you have a clue about. They are entitled to charge whatever they want for a setup fee to try to offset the countless hours they have probably spent getting a handle on this mess. If you don't like recurring fees, you don't need to use their service. Upgrade your own server and host X-Payments there. If you want to bitch about the way X-Cart has handled this rollout, fine. But don't attack one of the hardest working and trustworthy companies you will find in this business. I won't tolerate it and I hope the rest of you who are familiar with BCSE won't either.
