By: First Atlantic Commerce Ltd Hurricane Bill churned past Bermuda early on Saturday morning, leaving behind stormy sea conditions, debris and some flooding, but no major structural damage. Up to 3700 homes across the island lost power during the storm, caused by debris falling onto wires and winds blowing out switches. Electricity across the island has now been restored, roads have been cleared of debris, and the island is operating as normal. FAC’s payment gateway platform is hosted at the Cable and Wireless facility, which maintains independent power supply and is a world-class hurricane proof facility. As anticipated, there was no impact to FAC’s payment systems during the storm, and FAC continued to offer payment processing services to Internet-based customers around the globe. “As in the past with other hurricanes impacting the island, FAC was able to continue processing without interruption.
