thats the plan

hopefully things work out sooner than later

still no responses

Maybe I should call it quits.

What do you think ?

You gave them a good ride for their money :1orglaugh:thumbsup

nooo, why? its your money!

send them more emails, post more posts, try to contact them more

like it, heheeh, persistence is key, or maybe i got too much time on my hands

wonder if they will pay both cheques, when i cross the payment threshold this year

Honestly they have more to lose.

If I was an owner I would pay that missing payout out of my pocket to avoid all this bad rep.

Not for a company of that size. Most of affiliate revenue comes from big partners such as mindgeek. One small-time webmaster complaining here, will not affect their existing affiliates. They also dont accept new affiliates of semnate's size anymore.

Unlikely, even if the cheques have an expiration date.
To combine the missing amount into your next payout, they would have to trace down, and cancel the old cheque. That in itself is time-consuming, but that's the easy part.
Because in the accounting, your amount shows up as paid, they would have to recalculate and restate their earnings. Even a small amount off, is not fun to deal with. Therefore, it is not worth their trouble to chase the amount down for you.

Sounds like MovieGuy is 'defending' an affiliate company that doesnt pay.

Just being pragmatic. Here's a bump for your troubles

You have a funny way of thinking about business. Hopefully it doesn't reflect how they think.

It doesn't matter if it's "worth their trouble". They owe that money and they need to figure it out. Noone cares what steps they need to take. That's what employees are paid for, to do the work, even if sometimes it's not "fun".

There are companies MUCH bigger and they pay like clockwork, and if there's a payment missing they quickly resolve it.

A company can decide to shut down their affiliate program completely if they can't manage it. But they cannot choose to not pay what they owe.

Fully Agree

I agree with you, but I worked there, and this is how they think.

Got it, too bad. But at least we're on the same page :thumbsup

sucks that they screw over the little guy, just shady

so scared that im getting close that my balance is about to cross the balance threshold

its to the point where i cant pull links yet, as being close to payment threshold

I just got a payment from MadCheddar via Paxum

thanks for the headsup, hopefully mine comes next

I am waiting too, not a lot of money, but enough to notice

2019-08-16 Pending Not Yet Paid Not Paid $118.69 Paxum Details
2019-11-01 Pending Not Yet Paid Not Paid $113.70 Paxum Details
2020-01-16 Pending Not Yet Paid Not Paid $102.10 Paxum Details

so im not the only one the are not paying, geesh

Looks like I'm not alone.....

1st off, I really hate that I'm "Taking It To The Boards" but I don't know what else to do.

Around mid October I noticed I was missing a payment from MadCheddar.com that shows being sent to me via check on 2019-07-08. I have no record of ever receiving this check and my account is set to Paxum for payouts (nothing over there, either). So I started to try and contact them...

2019-10-18 - I emailed all the info to Darren, who had helped me with a previous problem. No reply.

2019-10-23 - Sent a message to Support via NATS. Status "unread"

2019-10-29 - Emailed Darren again. No reply.

2019-11-01 - A 2nd payment shows up in NATS:
Status: Pending
Payment Sent: Not Yet Paid
Method: Paxum

2019-11-04 - Sent a 2nd message to Support via NATS. Status "unread"

2019-11-04 - Contacted James via Skype & sent him all the info. He told me he'd hit up accounting

2019-11-12 - Checked in with James on Skype. He hadn't heard anything back.

2019-11-18 - Checked in with James on Skype. No reply.

2019-11-25 - Checked in with James on Skype. No reply.

2020-01-15 - Sent all this to James one last time before I posted. He said he still hasn't heard anything, but followed up with accounting today & made this an urgent request.

2020-01-23 - Checked in with James on Skype. No reply.

All I want is the money I'm owed and I don't know what else to do, so while I hate doing this, here I am...

Thanks for reading,
Mark - Greenguy

So Im definitely not the only one that they owe money.

Sad to say, but I hope more people like Greenguy who have payment issues with MadCheddar will speak out in this thread, and hopefully we all get paid.

No response .. I hope you get your money back

money back...

stop sig spamming, you are clueless :321GFY

You don't want to Come to get and Multiply your TRAFFIC?! http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/...ons/icon10.gif

got some new feedback yesterday from a new support person, fingers crossed

Can you post or send me their contact info?

same here

Greenguy!! Yey!!!

got a new response from a different madcheddar representative

How do other people get in contact with them?

Looks like someone removed the post with the way's to contact them?

User which posted e-mails requested to delete those posts plus replies related to those e-mails.

:thumbsup

kinda odd that those email contacts were removed.

did you get your cheddar

They probably requested from poster to remove it.

Doesn't matter anyway, not one of them responded.

nope, still no cheddar

new person from madchedder says they are looking into things... fingers crossed

:thumbsup

have many times have you said this? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

you are owed small amount, your time must be cheap if you keep wasting it with these ignorants.

Pretty sure MadChedder is having money problems. I heard Lansky was stealing investor money to fund his extravagant lifestyle. Dont belvie the hype, he wasn't bought out he was forced out. These guys are spending 20k on shoots and blowing money out the ying yang. If they had the money to pay their affiliates they would. Thats also why they are suing everyone six ways from Sunday for pirating their content.

Don’t they have a large tube site, too?

hope you get your cheddar

That's preposterous. You are thinking of Malibu Media.

VMG has 6 big sites in operation for years. At their scale and size, the cashflow would have bankers kissing their asses even if they needed to borrow money to buy Greg out in a lump sum (and there are other ways of buyout at such large scales, that Nathan/Fabian formerly discussed on GFY)

As noted earlier in this thread, nearly every affiliate program has raised payout minimums. It costs more to deal with little affiliates and little payouts.
