Let me start off by saying, h3x, you seem like a nice enough guy, and I feel sorry to have to do this. But the fact is Ricky from Affiliate Connection is a fucking joke and is obvioulsy either attempting to scam affiliates, or doesn't have the money to pay - flat out.
THe quick story, and I am going to be lazy with dates as I am sick and tired of dealing with this issue.
We started promoting them a few months back, set paypal as our method of payout. First pay period comes around (owed some $900) and no pay. We chase them up a week or two later, and Ricky says he needs our wire details (even though we have paypal set), so in between waiting for replies and catching on how pathetic Ricky is we changed our links out to a different sponsor. A further week passes and then the wire shows up. Great.
At this point though we had also built up another $800 in earnings before switching our links out. Next pay period comes around, (owed $500) and no wire again. We chase it up again a week or two after (as we deal with lots of sponsors we don't immediately notice everything), and after dealing with a complete clusterfuck of an email exchange, Ricky keeps insiting he paid us the $500 already, and that only a further few hundred is owed - which we will get next pay day.
At this point he asks multiple times for us to confirm we didn't receive the money. Our wire details have NOT changed since the last payout so there should not be an issue (unless he didn't send it of course), we confirm it multiple times and push him to stop beating around the bush and send us our funds - he stops replying. We have now been waiting all week without any pay, any notification as to if or when we will be paid.
At this point I can't imagine how ANYONE could deal with this company. And after reading and hearing other peoples experiences it is clear that they are not worth promoting in their current format. I sincerely hope and wish the best for h3x and I hope he has the means to cut loose from his partnership with Ricky.
Otherwise try revshared or associatepay, and perhaps others. Both of those convert as good or better, and actually pay. I spent more time chasing this money then I did earning it. Fuck Ricky and his two bit operation.
