  "One of our concerns was how customers would respond to the telephone company introducing this type of product," says Rich Bialek, director of credit card services for Ameritech. "Beyond that, a host of issues needed to be addressed through research before we could develop a card that would have a strong chance of succeeding."
  
  Multipurpose plastic The Complete MasterCard, jointly issued by Ameritech and Household International, the country's ninth-largest credit card issuer, combines a MasterCard with the features of a telephone calling card, allowing users to shop, pay bills, take trips and make phone calls.

  ...
  "The principal idea was to make our calling card more attractive by combining it with a credit card," Bialek says.

  Richard Bialek, CEO Bialek Group in Wheaton, Illinois and former SVP of Consumer Credit Products and SVP of Strategic Research and Intelligence for Visa International encourages vigilance, however sees the possibility of some good coming out of all of this for the acquiring industry. "Diligent industry players should always be watchful of what is happening in Congress, especially in this economy," says Bialek. "Congress is looking for "villains" and the credit card industry is a favorite source for many Congressmen. There will be consideration of new regulation around interchange rates and the concept of interchange. But, I do not see it going as far as it has in Australia, where caps were set on interchange rates." Bialek believes that the Credit Card Bill of Rights is a benefit for processors and acquirers. "The issuing side of the industry is more familiar to consumers. Congressmen can go back to their constituents and show how they have taken on the credit card companies," he says.
  ...
  This will impact processors," says Bialek.
  ...
  Bialek says that the key is to get big or get special. "Become large enough to gain operating scale economies that provide a pricing advantage," he says.

  Which is the right road, and how expensive will be the trip? that be what the agents want to know, said nekema.com Senior Vice President Richard Bialek.The focus groups also concluded that : agencies realize that they can not wait for technology to settle down and that no decision is as bad as the wrong decision ; technology expenditures will need to become a yearly line item, rather than a one-time expense ; although technology can increase the efficiency of processing, the benefits may not be as dramatic as originally thought ; agents still believe in the possibility of single-entry, multiple-company input ; and agents would like to see carriers adopt a uniform set of data entry standards.
  
  The focus groups were conducted in Chicago, Phoenix and Washington, D.C. by the IIIAA.Nekema.com (Jersey City, NJ), an e-commerce services provider working with independent insurance agents to improve operating efficiencies in selling and processing insurance, operates as a joint venture between Kemper Insurance Cos. and Madison Consulting Group.For more information, visit www.nekema.com.ACT, a group of more than 25 organizations and companies, provides input on technology for both independent agents and insurers.
