Has there ever been a sponsor error that gave affiliates more $$$?

So has there? like accidentally setting affiliate payouts to 100% all time

Or sending double checks by accident? or payout via epass and accidentally adding a couple zero's behind it?

Seems the only mistakes take from affiliates rather than give



just a thought

Its happened, although the number of times sponsors have been short on their checks is definitely more frequent.

but yes, been overpaid, usually it will come out of your next payments

but like especially coding errors, it's not like webmasters can actually be compensated for that (we arent 100% of the time) when a sponsor site has coding "errors" or "tests" or "mistakes" and it credits them and us nothing, usually it's "sorry, was mistake, we fix now" and no compensation

there was a time i was linking hosted galleries for a site for an entire year.........i kept wondering why i made 0 sales from them...........finally i seen i was sending 0 clicks.........there was coding mistake on hosted galleries, i was compensated $0.00

I agree, but most will never get it.

Has happened a couple of times to me, sucks though since usually it just means trouble, especially here in Sweden if it's a check.

No, but my cell phone provider goofed on a credit adjustment to me and gave me 6 months of free service.

Some sponsor owes me $200 cause they send their checks in such plain envelopes that I tossed the first 2 sponsor checks they sent out.

They wanted to close my "support ticket" without giving me my money, even after they voided the original checks. So now I'll bug them in a few days. Wonder if they'll cheat me for the lousy 200?

those fucking rat bastards. they should be strung up and flogged for that shit..

personally i think if you are going to have a webmaster program your checks should be shaped like vagina's and be made out of rubber , with huge hot pink letters that say " GRANNY GANGBANG EMPLOYEE CHECK ENCLOSED " and an electronic microchip on each letter that has a voice recording of an old granny screaming " rape my ass " over and over.

jk .

i have never heard that complaint before , most people complain about the letters being too descriptive , not for being plain.
