Well, how do you monetize such a service without Google Wallet, Square Cash, and <insert new entrant of the week> eating you alive? Everybody is running away from Visa/Mastercard processing and toward ACH (Dwolla & Popmoney) or debit based systems (Google Wallet, Venmo), and any fees essentially force whatever volume you have to jump to a competitor.
Worst case, you'll see people using online bill pay to mail eachother's banks checks as that is free and low effort. People just don't want to pay to move money friend to friend, and the US is an anomaly with our extremely high credit card processing charges, where we're at 1.5% to 2% in interchange, the rest of the world is below 1%.
