Banned from PussyCash
Well I must say that this is a first in adult. The first time I've ever been banned from an affiliate program. When logging into Stats Remote, I noticed it wasn't picking up the Pussy Cash stats. I went to check and saw this:
Quote:
I work with some of the larger programs and as many of you know send strictly SE traffic. The traffic I was sending to ImLive came from PPC and came from a cam comparision site. We were testing the conversion rates of a few sponsors before moving them into our network. The traffic we were sending was fairly minimal, but targeted, and I think maybe we had sent a couple sales this week. I have no problem if a company doesn't want our traffic if they feel it doesn't convert or is not right for their program. I can't think of a reason why cam search traffic would be bad, but every site has their choice. A simple e-mail stating our traffic didn't fit their program would have been fine. Heck, I'd have even been fine if they moved us to Revshare (always willing to test things out). What I don't like is being accused of fraud. We spend over $100k in PPC a month, send quality traffic that converts well to a lot of sponsors here, and have never once done anything fraudulent (probably wouldn't even know how). We're a US based company that does a lot of mainstream and adult business. My partner speaks regularly at the top search engine shows and has a great reputation in the industry. I am just amazed to be banned from a program and accused of fraud after sending maybe 500 clicks without an explanation. Nonetheless, not drama. Just wondering if this is common. |
so you're asking if unprofessionalism, poor customer service, and general ignorance is common in adult?
yes. |

i'm just trolling.. i've seen the same threads you have, seems pretty unprofessional they didn't offer you revshare or something.. or at least, e-mail/call/icq you.. not a libelous form letter

i screwed around on the surfer side of imlive for awhile the first time i saw the site.. it seemed like it was really glitchy as far as how my minutes used were tracked, i kinda shyed away from promoting it after seeing that.. |

The pigshit ignorance and bullshit is a very good reason not to be dealing with certain sponsors. Another one added to the blacklist :thumbsup |

May I suggest the possibility of them thinking Your traffic was "too good to be true"?
But geez.. in that case, they should've contacted You first and ask *how* You're promoting them. That was just.. well, unprofessional.. :disgust |
I can't seem to be able to make any sale with them
I might as well just drop them. |
Same thing happened to me.
Accused of email spamming which I never did. Never sent the first email. And no, did not make many sales. Actually, very little traffic to them. They did have a lot somewhat silly rules as I recall too. |

Nothing libelous about it IMO - not an attorney. The message wasn't made public until the receipient posted it here. Could be an error? Maybe a letter to PussyCash asking why. |
Quote:
PussyCash is not changing accounts into fraud status, unless they have a good reason to believe that some fraud was done. Fraud can be due to many things. If you think that you had done nothing wrong, as you state in your post. Please feel free to send an email about it to [email protected] and he will be more then happy to help you in getting this issue resolved ASAP. :2 cents: |

exactly, so they just did him a favour |
Exact same thing happened to me with PussyCash.

Why the hell can Adam not raise the initiative and email the client?? Affilates don't spend time creating material then have to chase the sponsor because the sponsor "suspects" - it never did work based on guilt without proof. If Adam wants the damned terminated accounts - let him work for it. |
Thanks for the heads up.
Removed. |

Again, I don't really give a shit about the account anymore. I was just curious if this was common or isolated amongst cam sponsors and Pussy Cash. It is a first for me. We send upwards of 50 signups a day to various sponsors, I'm not too concerned about being banned from one. |
Quote:
In Most of the times Adam will contact the affilliate to see if he can be of help, but due to the Fact that Adam is in XBiz these days, it will be best if the affiliate will send him an email about it to get things rolling faster. |

Don't worry PC, I not that rash. But collectively the post in this thread are what I am following.

Quote:
Sure Adam may be busy - so are others. Why should they waste time chasing a sponsor because "compliance" elected to act. If Pussycash wants the accounts they terminate - deal with it. |

Did this thread earn me the distinct dishonor of the white nick?:winkwink: I didn't think asking if others being banned from them was a big deal.

Frankly - I'd have done the same man. We don't cheat, scam, spam or defraud and anyone, sponsor or not, who claims otherwise is wrong - and they sure don't need to be retaining any affiliate funds - no matter how little in a payment period. |

13. TERMINATION/ CANCELLATION: Either You or the Company may terminate at any time, and without cause, Your account on the Site, upon notification of the other party by email. http://pussycash.com/agreement.asp |
Quote:
Anyway Its the same shit that Click/Cash pulls - your sign ups are not spending enough cash so they can the account. It makes sense really - why would they tolerate losing money on your account? The alternative is to drop the payout rate - but then again they are losing money because less people would promote them. The whole thing is a con - they con the surfer and they con the affiliate. It stinks. |
Quote:
I've only been sending traffic for a week. I've only sent 350 uniques and 2 signups. There is no way humanly possible that they could assume in less than a week how much my sign ups would spend. Not to mention, I've hardly sent any traffic or sales to them. Plus it's not like I'm using a shady traffic source, SE traffic is as good as it gets. |
Quote:
|
it could have been that the 2 signups you sent maybe 1 was a stolen cc which they just did the easy(bullshit) thing to do which is term your account
even though there was no fraud on your part you just happended to send the surfer though your affiliate link. |
I have never had any problems with them, and have made some damn good money off of them. And I see both sides of the coin about contacting the webmaster if fraud is suspected.
|
Thanks for the heads up, pk...

did you try hitting them up before posting this? if you have a good relationship with a sponsor you should hit up a rep and have it resolved.

Update: Apparently I've been reinstated. Still confused but oh well.

It's pretty shitty to terminate someone, not notify them, but continue to allow their traffic to be accepted. What if this person doesn't check stats for a few days.... seems like sponsor is stealing from them at that point. Either pay on the traffic or block it, seems like the right thing to do anyway. |
Quote:
see my post above... terminating someone and continuing to take their traffic with no intention of paying them, thats a joke. At least when Clickcash terminates you they block your traffic, not continue to steal it. |

no asswipe. if you are not terminated then you have an active account and are paid. terminated = blocked traffic. not terminated = traffic accepted, paid. are you really that dumb or are you trying to be a smart ass ? |
