Just found out unpaid 2880 usd in refferal payments
 
After three years I took look at forgotten program and realized i had unpaid refferal payments for 2880 usd in my account.
Wow, looks good but there must be a reason why I was not getting paid. So I wrote an email to the company....

teomaxxx 09-21-2015 11:51 AM

and got this reply:

The webmaster tier program was removed 2 years ago, this is why a payment has not generated. An email and announcement went out that we would no longer pay the 10% for referrals because of too much fraud. Sorry for the inconvenience.

ha, ha, no christmas present for me soon....

~Ray 09-21-2015 11:52 AM

Good luck. Let us know how it turns out

Who was it?

What program?

I've recently unearthed a trove of forgotten mail and checks and been contacting programs about getting them re-issued. A couple were for programs that have closed, and a few I have no idea who they are from.

MrBottomTooth 09-21-2015 12:04 PM

I hate when they fuck with the original terms. Another favourite is to come back and say they are now only crediting you with the referral for 1 year, instead of indefinitely. That's fine to run it like that, but shady as fuck when you decide to add that to the terms later on out of the blue.

CourtneyR 09-21-2015 12:04 PM

Curious who it could be.

I dont blame them for being shady, if they really sent that letter...but they should have at least remove aff payments it from webmaster section, so one dont see how much he could made...:error

That's so fucked up

Imho, i think those referrals sent before their TOS change should be automatically grandfathered in and paid to the affiliates.

and I would like to add, I dont blame them. If they really had a lot of fraud with affiliates referals, then I can imagine company cancelling it.

cybermike 09-21-2015 02:23 PM

Found referral money is fun.. found out a few months ago I had a few k in referral money built up over years on cams.com from 1 referral .. was a nice find..

Ps. Not their fault.. their whole separate broker program is confusing as fuck.. needed to send in something more to get those funds released

that sucks :(

Moving it off the program and creating a webmaster notice where it previously was would have made the message a bit more clear for those who might have not seen the email.

Sign of the times.

I understand discontinuing the referral program going forward, but if you have those bonuses accrued previously, shouldn't you be paid that?

It sounds like their stats are still tracking referrals, as a "fuck you, this is what you would have made" ?

Shady = suspicious no?

This isn't suspicious because they are very clear and up front about it - the problem is that its just pure unethical. If he accrued that amount, he should be paid that amount.

Pure and simple or at least that's how it looks.

Of course it is that simple. If they don't, they can be taken to court. It's just easy to fuck with affiliates because most don't bother, especially for small amounts.

Someone should start a collection agency for unpaid affiliate payments. With 20-30% fee on success. I think it would be a hit. ;)
