Hope your health improves, my father had 6 of 8 of his arteries bypassed 15 years ago and has been going strong since, hopefully you're on the road to recovery and the health problems will be behind you for a long time!

How refreshing to see such an honest post on here. Respect.
Simon, you're a good guy so I'm sure everything will work out for you.
All the best

top guy, hope it works out and your health improves!

I agree. I wish more sponsors having financial difficulties would just be honest about it. If I've been promoting you for years and you've always paid me and treated me fairly then I'm very likely to keep my links up for a while if you are upfront and give an honest date when you should be able to pay. Plus if I know about it, it makes it easier to work around and with the notice it becomes less of a big deal.

The support in this thread is genuinely stunning. I thought for quite a long time before posting and pretty much assumed I'd be torn to shreds, so I am very, very happy with how its panned out.

I won't ruin it by blathering on as there's not really anything to add until I make good on the promises. :)

Communication is key... :2 cents:

We just posted our new reviews, so hopefully they will bring in a few more customers :thumbsup

link to another adult board? isnt that a ban hammer offence?

No it's not.

wow, when did the rules change?

they didn't, the rule says you cannot post other boards in order to try and get people to join that board

also, fitty people now being paid by simon

Shame he ignores all emails from his affiliates. I haven't read all of the posts to see what the resolution is to people not getting paid -- but he continues to send out useless gallery promotional emails to his affiliates (with no way to unsubscribe from his list), so he is still trying to drum up business.

If anyone has a private email contact for him, please post it.

So has he not paid *you*?

How does your blacklist work? More than say, 6 people contact you and agree non payment?

SimonsScans wanks of cats = fact

How much does he owe you?

Good luck with everything. It's refreshing to see such honesty for once. Something that can be considered a 'reason' instead of the typical 'excuse'.

Irrelevant.
While it's refreshing to see the honesty of simonscans in this thread, it's something that rarely ever happens. Unaccountability, generic excuses, and empty vouches are the norm. If a sponsor owes even $0.01 to one person, that should be enough to get them on the list.

Some of you guys need to grow up. Businesses paying late sometimes is a part of all business, it certainly happens all day every day in every business online and off.

I can imagine for those living at home with their mums, living week to week, it can become personal. But it is in fact just a part of business.

That list now says Simons scans isnt paying. When in fact simons scans is just late in paying. A very big difference. As everyone who has any experience of running a business would know.

:2 cents:

You're an idiot. Plain and simple.

Over the course of ten years, I worked for some of the largest and most well known ad agencies in the world and was not paid late once. I ran a small real estate brokerage in NYC for two years and, even though the business itself failed for other reasons, every agent received their split within 48 business hours after the commission check cleared the bank. Every staff member was also paid on time every time.

While it appears as if you're defending Simons cans, you're also fucking him because your behavior and attitude are perpetuating the environment which made him hesitant to come forward and be honest about the situation in the first place. Even despite the fact that he had valid reasons that most understanding people would accept as being legitimate.

He seems like a nice, honest hardworking guy and his straightforwardness in addressing the issue makes me more likely to promote his sites even though I have what is otherwise a hard line stance against programs who have ever paid even one day late.

Despite that, I'm fine with him being on the list because such a list needs to exist even though there may be some collateral damage. Based upon Simons cans response, it appears that he is accountable enough to where he will just accept the consequences for the time being and just continue to do as he's always done. Seeing as he's run a highly regarded program for a considerable amount of time, he probably also knows that approaching the situation like that is better than bitching and moaning about being on the list.

There's really nothing more for you to say, Johny Traffic, but if you want to discuss this any further and make it to where I'll consider you to be at least slightly relevant, and therefore take personally your cheeky little comments about me needing to grow up and how I live week to week at home with my mum, be a good little bitch and start a new thread so we can do so outside of the simons cans thread.

Just in case I don't see it, please email jimmycooper / at / starletsheet / . / com and let me know when it goes live. While I really don't have the time, it has been a stressful week, so it might actually be kind of fun to blow off some steam and get medieval on your ass. Thanks.

Great response Simon

Just a quick note to say payments have now started going out again. Paxum is going in two batches, one already done. If you are US based and currently get a cheque or wire, don't forget we can now ACH if you wish.

I expect all outstanding payments to have left here by the end of the week.

And, thank you all for your patience! :)

Always loved your stuff. Do you have your own place in Ibiza or what?

I wish, just a lot of local knowledge. It's a shocklingly expensive place but we know a few villa owners now so we can pick up the random days they can't usually sell. - but if we weren't already going we would no way start now.

James Blunt has a house in Ibiza, the usual infinity pool and helipad malarky, but what made me laugh was the club license. Villa parties now get fined loads 20,000euro or so, so what he did was have his HOUSE licensed as a NIGHT CLUB! Genius.

pics of the house are in order.

hoping to your immediate recovery :)

Hope you recover fully Simon and get back to normal. I've been through a similar situation and know what it's like. It was Eva's health and my being locked out of our bank accounts that screwed us.

Do you have anyone else you can trust the financial side to?

As for VAT, well that's tough given the margins many sites work on. 20% of 1/2 the sales is 10% of the turnover. :Oh crap :Oh crap :Oh crap :Oh crap

That would send a lot of sites down.

is this site no more?

ps

hope things get better for you.

love your site.

Just wanted to let everyone know that we have received our money from Simon :thumbsup

Thanks a bunch, and again best of luck to Simon.

Simon does not pay back.
No response to email ([email protected]).
Has anyone received payment from him in May - June?

Bump for answers.

I haven't even received my cheque for March.
I've heard that Simon began making pay-outs on demand lately, but he
didn't reply to my email as well.
I'll leave my login here: a45123, let's hope that Simon will read this topic.

will contact him and make sure he knows of this.

What’s new, Paul? Did you manage to contact Simon?
