Hi,

I just want to complain. After all its the complpaints corner.

I used to be an affiliate for Music123.com who were using CJ as their affiliate network. I love CJ, they have one of the best reporting and payments practises. But music123.com sucks!!

June last year they decided to shift to LinkShare, and sent out some notifications. I replied, telling them to keep me as their affiliate (i was making $200 a month from them) in Linkshare.

But the moment they swithced over, all their affiliate links immediately changed, and the CJ ones no longer worked. They didnt even provide a transfer method. All my affiliate links went dead the stroke of midnight, and i still havent quite recovered yet. Out of lack of choices to promote guitar affiliate programs, i am still sticking to music123 even though they lowered their commission levels. I never made as much money as before from them, and all i can say is:

music123.com sucks!! - whats the use of having an affiliate program if you treat your affiliates like dirt?

They didnt even care... all they could say was sorry.

P:S - sorry if it is emotionally charged. if i found this board earlier i would not be so angry now
