no one cares about 5. you know how many other businesses Fiserv swallowed up because they operated better than others? FirstData was not a merger. We bought them. We could because they had a giant security failure and their name was sullied.

The biggest $ maker had and still has nothing to do with FirstData. 40 years of Fiserv. FirstData is six feet under. Eat it up FB. swallow the cold hard truth. Your baby went out with the bath water.
