Unfortunately it looks like they are turning into another Pimproll (1:6,000+) for me.  Conversion rates tripling over the course of a year means no more promotion from me. And if it keeps up I will remove all links.

Yeah, I don't quite understand what happened with them. I did notice a huge drop in quality of their product right after they had that big round of layoffs -- especially in the lighting of their shoots, which got very dim and murky. But my relationship with them goes back a lot of years and they've always been a good converter and a solid pay. I expected them -- of all people -- to surf these hard times better than they have.
By the way it's not just CCbill that seems to do some batch processing. I woke up this morning to find five kinkydollars sales that got processed between between midnight and 7:00 AM. On June 1. I didn't have a single five-sale day with them in May, so they or their processors *must* have been sitting on those sales and waiting to run them (re-run them?) in June.
