Do you think a program that do this is professional?
 

I've made a constructive criticism to a sponsor and he has just deactivated my account. Would YOU trust such a sponsor?

This is what I said to him (my exact word): Can I ask you a favor? Could you try to send less e-mails to your affiliates? It's really annoying getting e-mails as often as you guys send them.

This is his reply: we just deleted you from our list

AND: Don't worry you never get anymore e-mails from us..EVER

we checked your affiliate ID...you never sent a click since Jan 05

so you're now out.
have a nice day

AND: Important Information Regarding Affiliate ID: 879284
Webmaster Program: BadGirlBucks.com

Your Affiliate account has been deactivated due to click inactivity.


Thank you,

CCBill

lol why doesnt this surprise me at all, I mean ppl say I have a temper but that guy damn hehe

well, shit happens :2 cents:

There's a reason why I never sent any traffic to this sponsor. There's also a reason why I wanted to be his affiliates. But after getting this kind of response I guess I'll have to say: your loss. I'll start a thread with my stats later today.

:)

damn! thats neither nice nor professional :O

I wonder if they decided to send as many affiliate emails a day as they make sites a day

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

They send 1 e-mail every 2-3 days.

Not to mention most days they fuck up and end up sending more than 1 e-mail.

I get an email from the almost daily, I too find it very annoying!

I was actually wondering how many i should send out? once a week or only if I have an anouncement?

That's nothing, my buddy just got dropped from a major program because he sent 2 signups on a bonus day with a 1:8 ratio. They said he was cheating. It's a sponsor he's sent nearly a hundred signups to in the last year. How the hell can you tell a person is cheating from 2 signups?!

SicCash canned me last year after I had send a whopping 8 SU in a 3 month period and 3 charged back. They said since my chargeback ratio was over 1% my account was cancelled. Now how can you tell ANYTHING by 8 fricken sign ups? Hell ONE chargeback would have out me over the limit. I e-mailed them asking them to explain to me how it is MY fault people charged back? After all I just send them the people it's THEIR job to not over-promise and under-deliver. Then they e-mailed be back threatening to contact all the major sponsors and let them know about me and have them cancell my accounts. Funny how ARS and Pimproll and others have never had any problems with me.

Based on the text you provided, that is beyond unprofessional, no matter how you look at it.

One good thing about what transpired, you now know they only care about certain web masters.

No kidding web masters get sick and tired of sponsors.

It couldn't be the $120 bucks the surfer gets charged in 3 days if he happens to miss the prechecked cross-sales?? lol

That's fucked up. I mean sure, you've got to make sure you're not misleading the people you refer about the site, but that's about all you can do.

maybe its all your negative comments on gfy. if you would smarten up and stop being an asshat.

that's extremely unprofessionial. I have my opinions on a couple sponsors mentioned above but i'm just keeping my mouth shut so they don't deactivate my account

its their loss man

The Mac would never treat a webmaster like that. We pride ourselves on taking care of those who take care of us. We understand your importance to our program.

Hit me up and start making money with The Mac! :pimp

No of course I wasn't. That's a stupid thing to do. If I did as soon as the surfer went to the tour he would see I was full of shit and not even sign up. Their sites weren't being too profitable for me anyways so no big deal I just thought that was bush league to threaten someone like that. Funny thing is in their cancellation letter( the first one ) they said I could sign up as an SicCash affiliate again if I wanted too. WTF is that shit?

what a joke, anyway I'm glad to see competition (if you can even call it that) having such behavior lol

Only when there are important news to be told or else you are bound to see your mails getting ignored sooner or later :2 cents:

I've been using BGB for a while now on one of my sites. Haven't had any problems with emails.

no hits at all since jan 05? maybe if you contacted them and said why your not sending hits for a while they would have kept it open.

Sounds like the person that did that should have taken a deep breath before killing your account. Some people get irritated and act on impulse.

Should I name that sponsor or you guys got who it is by now?

good morning everybody...

Tranza-
Go ahead and sign up for us-we are too busy answering feedback from our affiliates to mail them....lol

That's not true-the mailer responsibility keeps bouncing aorund our team like a hot potatoe!

BadGirlsBucks definitely sends too much mail.

It's annoying.

wow, what assholes.

Once every 2 weeks would be more than fine and make sure every email has tools to make them money such as the newest galleries and good tips on how to convert your sites.

Sounds fucked up to me.
Side note:
I dont feel comfortable asking sponsors for anything much less doing business with them unless I've met the owner, affiliate manager or rep in person or at least had a positive personal referrence from someone I trust who is doing business with them. Usually seems to help eliminate much unwanted drama I think. :2 cents:

look closely, you named the sponsor in your initial post

lol

:1orglaugh

on another board an aff posted his ccbill stats, wont copy them here but heres the idea:

2 months, all bgb sites, 7 rebills

He posted katesplayground (you know the YUMMY girl with the BIG err ok you get the idea) :

14 days (!) 73 rebills

Not just signups are wacky, rebills are hell and no I dont have anything against them, just stating facts.

RESPONSE:

We send affiliates e-mails when...
1. WE LAUNCH A NEW SITE (Figure an affiliate would like to know that)
2. WE have new promos to offer.

If you are getting the daily e-mails,it's because-

1. You put your e-mail address in our FREE PIC e-mail on the index of all of our websites. This is for surfers that want free pix.

Now we are locking down new terms and conditions. If you haven't sent a "CLICK" not a sale.... But a click you will be deleted from the account.

If this is too much to ask from a sponsor, then you are in a very fucked up world.


Send 1 CLICK WITHIN 30 DAYS

Tranza or tarzan whatever he called hasn't sent any clicks since we opened the program. Yes this is my loss :( I need more affiliates like you that send NO traffic ? I don't think so.


Is it professional? It's business. Shit or get off the pot! I need to spend time helping the affiliates that send a sale or two. Or even 1 click, just to say you tried
:1orglaugh

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Shit, I didn't notice that.

Really not cool, maybe someone from BGB could shed light on this?

You are one of the 1st (Competeing program owners to chime in on us) let me put it to you like this Flying Dutchman. We don't like you. We don't want you to promote us. You talk shit, be we are ALL over your TGP. What's that mean? Somebody's making $$$ on us. You might want to STFU and go back to Holland before I burn those wooden shoes again.


Geezus christ Asshat...you even have us on your links Page :1orglaugh

http://dutchteencash.com/links.html

Now this is what I call a professional response.

Enough said.

I think that calls for a ban on your TGP, don't you agree thinkx?

hahaha you deleted our banner quick..now run to your two tgps and take off our girls...run forrest run..hurry up before everyone sees your a phony
