Not me. I'm done with that. I've been trying to push the small or medium sized guys mainly with fair ccbill or verotel programs (some Nats). They tend to appreciate anyone who sends them clean signups. That's what a partnership is all about. Some of the ones you're speaking of these days well it seems as if they think they are doing you a favor by letting you be in their program unless you run redtube. From past experiences I tend to know what that means and what will typically happen to such a business in due time. Usually I've been right. I only hope that what I send to the good programs helps to keep us both afloat while the others perish.
