There might be other reasons for this: have you looked at their _fees_??? Holy crap! That's the only reason I don't have an account. They're charging top dollar for every aspect of a system that has it's only overhead in minimal amounts of CPU time.
You might be a bit behind the times on this issue. Recently MTB announced new lower fees: http://www.marktwain.com/fee.html Are these the ones you consider excessive? Note that if you consider the new fees to be reasonable, then you are now obliged to open account as per your publically posted exclamation quoted above. :-) Also check out Advance Bank in Australia: http://www.advance.com.au/ecash/intro/fees/default.htm I anticipate continually cheaper ecash fees as banks start to compete for selective, price-conscious customers like Feanor here. :-) Regards, Zooko
