Steve and I have discussed this situation before, and are pretty much in agreement.

I have always liked the guys at Ibill, I still have nothing personal against any of them over this.

HOWEVER -- for me personally, the issue is not about web900 sales. The amount they owe SIC is not huge, we're not going broke because we didn't get it, and it does not affect our business with our resellers.

The issue is about not honoring a contract and not paying your clients the money they are owed.

This is nothing new from my mouth, I've discussed it with their management in person, in Miami.

If they are telling me that they can't pay on such a small amount because they didn't get the money, what would happen if it were a larger amount of money that they didn't get paid from somewhere else?

The cardinal rule in processing -- and in running a sponsor program is that you pay what you owe, on time, in full, EVERY TIME. I dont care if your house burns down, your upstream doesn't pay you, its chinese new year, you pay what you owe. Period.

I'd rather lose my house than jack my webmasters, if it ever came down to it. You can always buy another house, you just don't pull business out of thin air.
