If the answer is YES, then we have a problem like the sponsor bypassing the webmaster and offering the surfer their own ref codes via email to re-join with a "special price".

Take a look at VideosZ... They don't use CCBILL, but when a surfer cancels, they automatically offer them to stay for half the price. The problem is that the WEBMASTER stops getting the rebill of that surfer, but the Vulturs of VideosZ get FULL CREDIT for that surfer that was sent by a hard working webmaster. So in the end they retain the surfer and still get paid the same of before. That is 15 bucks.... Because they don't need to pay the webmaster anymore.

It's incredible how NASTY and DIRTY the business is becoming day after day.. There are no codes and no ethics at all.
Why must everyone really presume the worst of most sponsors. Especially many of the smaller ones who do use ccbill as primary.

I mean what would you like, the site owner not getting the members email address nor other information? I mean we never need to communicate with members right? They never email in asking for us to look up some password, handle some billing issue, some tech issue, or whatever that helps keep them around so they do not say fuck it and charge back or cancel.

The more I read this sort of stuff the more I wonder why I go through my type in traffic to see if I can find any members that have rejoined that were once under an affiliate so I can credit them for the new join and shit. I mean hell most do not even know I do that but fuck it if everyone assumes we naturally will screw over the affiliate whenever we can however we can why should I bother.
