Ok, try and look at this analogy.
1) You get an advance of $500 from your employer
2) The next day you get a letter, telling you that you have been suspended because your account have gone in negative
3) You will now NOT be compensated for ANY work you perform, until you bring your account in positive!
Sheesh, if that happended I would have lawyers lining up from my door step to Timbuktu, eager to take my employer to court. A fiest for Sharks
What Verotel actually have told me, is that until my check clears their bank, mailing, depositing, clearing etc, 3 weeks +/-, they will STEAL any commisions coming from my referrals! And we all know that we never get credited for all referrals anyways, because of cookies for example. Some sites credit you for a sale up to one month, some for a week, some for 24 hours, and some not at all if the surfer don't sign up right there and then. Also some visitors gets an interest in a site, from your promotional material and then just type in the site's URL in his/hers browser without our referrals code.
Anyways, in my humble opinion the above business practice is not only wrong, it is unacceptable, unethical, and out of principle they can go take a hike, I will remove all links to Verotel sites, until they change their lowesome ways, even if we are just talking peanuts here.
Hey, had they written to me differently, example:
Saying that we need a check for XX amount, and off course you will still be credited for any sales until your check clears.
Heck then I would have send a check last Saturday AirMail, because I think it is fair and square that chargebacks, my commision part of it, will be credited my account, absolutely!
Anyways how much control do I really have, as to the quality of traffic I send. I run an honest review site, and only write the brutal truth. One should think such traffic was good? But still you never know, and be unlucky that a few dirtbacks do chargebacks even though they actually jerked of every day they where a member
