Thomtons make chocolate taste really bitter
Just got this from TD:
From 1st of November 2007 Thorntons are closing their affiliate program on the TradeDoubler network.
The affiliate program will therefore be closed from the 1st of November 2007 and we kindly ask you to remove your Thorntons links on your site with immediate effect.
So less than 24 hours notice for affiliates to swap their links. When will networks start getting tough with merchants and tell them that this is unacceptable - and that if they do it there will be a severe financial penalty which will be enforced (by legal action if need be).
OK, I promote Thorntons through Buy.at already and not through TD but there is a principle here which applies not only to TD but across the whole industry - merchants need to learn that affiliates are not a toy which can be picked up and dropped at will with zero notice.
