Have you considered using a management package of some sort? We use
rodopi and it does all of this for us and the accounting stuff (sorry,
failed that class along time ago, so I'm not a very good source for
information on it). The system automatically bills credit cards and puts
any declined/expired CCs on hold for their web access, Email, and Hosting.
After the preset cut off date it will do the same to any other unpaid
accounts, with the option for us to over ride it on a case by case basis.
They market it for ISPs and Wireless companies. Has worked pretty well for
us over all. I am not saying you have to use theirs specific product as
there are a number of other good ones out there. At one time we were using
Hurlnet, but there were some unpleasant issues with it running on NT, it was
ported over from *nix.
