"punish affiliates that do a good job because of a few select affiliates that dont"
hmm can't say as I strictly agree with you on that one, First Direct are a bit selective in the first place so there shouldn't be any bad affiliates on there methinks.
sure it's not good that they pulled it for a couple of weeks but if something isn't proving financially beneficial then the long term viability is in danger.
Ideally they should have removed any mention of it from the site but knowing that people use google etc. loads to search, then they probably figured that users will search the "£25 natwest offer" etc out.
Aint good but at least they haven't spat the dummy out and pulled it altogether.
