Metris used to be a client of ours - they bought ads on 6 million paper bags in 8-9 markets back in the summer of 2001, then tried a couple of other programs with us as well (nothing as large unfortunately). Certainly our biggest client for that year. And now, they are no more. Oh well, we haven't called them in years, and most of our contacts are no longer with the company.

Independent credit card issuers have become an endangered species in the financial service sector this summer as the big banks, in search of higher profits, try to acquire them.
