The text "(renews at $39.95 monthly)" isn't on all sites but the price point seems the same. I'd rather just shut off trials.

Eh, a lot of sites sell memberships the same way. What is the big deal? For example, Nastydollars sites also offer trials which rebill at $39.95, or straight monthly memberships which rebill at $24.95. All that info is right there on their join page.

the big deal is when you use revshare program, cause i am on second option getting paid less and all my link codes leads to the second option. Not count that people dont rebill as in first case, because when they choose trial they see possibility to end trial and then re-signup for 23USD, its cheaper then rebill from trial to full month for 39USD.

no reply from bangbrosonline crew, even no reply by email. but its not surprise, they have really bad support.


these trial prices:
$5.95 3 day trial (renews at $39.95 monthly)
or $23.95 monthly membership
are really fucked, out of 20 SUs i have only 3 rebills. Everyone see possibilty of lower price when they re-signup again...

If what Pipecrew has been telling me all comes to fruition, I think we'll all be very happy with the upcoming changes they have in the works. I know I'm excited.

Don't they always come up with the best of everything.. best ideas.. best sites, best software..

I hate when ppl come in here bitching about them and anything.. cuz if u have problems DONT FUCKING USE THEM!

How come no one ever hears the ppl who send tons of traffic who are making well over $60k a month with them complaining?? It's the ppl who make $500 or less and send shit traffic who complain!

I don't care how many times BS like that has been repeated over the years, it's still a bloody silly comment. You don't have a clue (not much of one even when a "name" posts) whether someone who complains earns $500 a month or $5 a month, whether from BB or anyone else. And so what, they have different rights? Bullshit. Anyway surely someone smart enough to earn a decent income is going to be smart enough to care about whether he earns as much as possible.

Big or small, you see a change you believe is going to damage your income, you contact the sponsor. The sponsor doesn't answer, you come to the boards. Sure you could say nothing and just walk away, but that would be real smart if there were a mistake or - like here - this is apparently a step towards something new and you did finally get an answer (part of one at least).

Often times the people making thousands of dollars with a sponsor have a close relationship with the owners. With that close relationship, they also have easy access to prompt information. No owner is going to dick around somebody sending them hundreds of joins a month. Unfortunately, the owners are often too busy to handle every support request, especially those of smaller accounts.

I don't agree with your statement at all. There are plenty of people making nice/decent livings ($5k monthly and up) that don't earn more than a grand a month with a given sponsor. They spread out their traffic to minimize losses if something big happens, i.e. a sponsor shuts down or closes a few sites (this DOES happen, and often). Furthermore, I think it's pretty silly to state that affiliates earning "small amounts", like $500 a month, aren't "worth the hassle". I would much rather have 100 affiliates earning $500 a month than 10 affiliates earning $5,000 a month.

I'm not directing this towards BBO, just stating in general. Though, they have shut down several sites in the past

Alot of times I have seen large programs change their payout structure because of the bigger affiliates. The guy making 60k a month is definitely effecting their bottom line so many programs have changed their pricing to try and get more money in and less money out to the smaller guys so they can pay the big guy.
Price changes don't really suprise me anymore, bad customer service does though since the industry has very little loyalty from webmasters and things like this turn some off the program.

I am making around $500 a month on their PPS program almost without any work (1hour a month). so i will use them even if they pay less, but what jayeff
