Sorry to disappoint you soul rebel, we DIDN'T lose our 1900 routes. We decided that 1900 had too many charge backs even if we charged the surfer $3.99 1.99 or even 20 cents. It is to easy for someone to ring up a telephone company and deny they made a call and get their money back. This was our decision.
3 dialer networks went broke from this already and we didn?t want to be number 4!
So we are alive and well, we just have a new USA route... that?s all.
This is the email we posted to all webmasters:
7/28/2002
Dear webmasters,
We have made some very big changes to our dialer payout structure so please read carefully.
You must update your dialer immediately. To version 8.00
Here are the reasons why:
1) We have increased our payout for Au and Uk effective immediately.
2) Please check your rates in your stats area
3) The Usa rate has changed. And we are now paying a whopping $35 per credit card signup, (when a surfer is using dsl/cable.)
And to make it even better, we offer a free trial join up with a credit card. Plus when a surfer exits the credit card join page, we will popup more windows with your code in them. So you have even more chances of getting a signup.
We are no longer using 1900 for the USA. This was our decision by choice, since the charge backs with 1900 for EVERY dialer company is ridiculous. Any dialer company that is still paying for Usa by the min or per call, (using 1900) WILL go broke. It is impossible to sustain paying webmasters and making nothing in return. We should know as we are the largest dialer network in the world. Already the industry has seen at least 3 dialer networks go broke simply for this reason.
We at the live shows network pride ourselves on paying webmasters on time every time. The last thing we want to be is another statistic. We are now using an international route for the USA and therefore the payment has changed. Please check your stats area.
You should update your dialer straight away, so you will get paid.
For the Usa Minutes generated from july 15th upto July 28th for the old Usa rate of .75 will be honoured and payed on the 1st of Aug.
Thankyou,
Live shows network
