You guys are using Form3 for FPS, is this correct?

Ah "any more technical questions"... except this one.

Sorry, but I can't name our partner.

We can take an educated guess...

I would note that this status page says "Our FPS Direct gateway provider".
Fair point. FWIW I thought your postmortem was excellent, and certainly puts Form3's to shame regardless of where the blame lies.
I believe it's PayPort, which is run by Vocalink - who also run FPS itself.

As far as I understand, PayPort was/is the recommended options for all new "direct" connections. Though it seems that it is also possible to go more-direct into the FPS system itself.
