Sometimes we fall into the trap of stereotyping even when we believe ourselves to be open minded.   I must admit, until now, credit card companies and processors have fallen into the category with pharmaceutical and insurance companies.  Profit before people.  Thank you for busting my small minded myth!  I'm thrilled to be working with you and wish I would have made the jump earlier.
