Here's an interesting post from an MMS3 scam victim:

They owe this guy:

£7696.78 pounds

They should pay eventually, I just think that unless you break their balls (put on pressure) about things and let them know you know you are due a payment they won't pay....

I personally just wont work with clowns like this.. 3 months is my limit,maximum, for work without being paid for month 1, you should never have to break anyones balls to get payment.. if they don't pay when asked or bull**** about when they will pay and then they don't or give unplausable excuses then I stop promoting them until they do pay at least month 1 and I make sure that everyone knows they are having trouble.

There's no point making a paper profit in month 3/4/5/6 when they haven't paid month 1.

Cashflow is vital to some companies, but if you have to chase and ball break to get paid then the chances are (if they have been running a while) they are mismanaging the cashflow anyway and failure and flight to a tropical island for the director(s) isn't that far away.

Ouch, that's a lot of money.
I have just requested my last four invoices (aug,sept,oct,nov) and fingers crossed these will come through, won't hold my breath because I can't imagine their situation has gotten any better

Just an update, I have been paid for August, September and October so far...not much but it was a nice suprise.
You guys had any luck yet?

[fox123]

Hi,
Very pleased to hear you got paid.
No such luck here.
Now owed for 12 months.
Sites are being changed over to mediaplazza and stealthnet content.

Good news is we will be seeing them in court middle of Jan if they challenge the CCJ and if they don't, we'll finally get paid......at last.

Anybody else get this mail about MMS3/3Business platform!

I will check my mails when I get home for this one...sounds interesting. Do you think they will be more reliable when it comes to payment, hope so and then I will actually spend sometime updating things.
Maybe when they call you is the time to rant and rave about how bad they have been, unless you have already decided to stop promoting their service

We've got most of our money paid using our solicitors and are just waiting for one more payment. Theyve blocked our login to their site now & we;re not promoting them anymore but at least we got the money.

How has everyone else got on?

[fox123]

Hi,
could you pm me or post here how you did it?
They owe me £1700 and because its over the small courts claim limit of £750 we've just had the form returned to us.
There are other ways such as issuing a summary cause or initial writ but it all sounds expensive/complicated to me?

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

We used the Glasgow office of McClure Naismith
They sent some letters & made some phone calls & it all cost under £100

Thannk you Anthony.

I'll get in contact with them on monday.

Can I ask how much did you end up gettting from the 3business.com muppets?

[OLBG]

We got it all - which was just under £6k I think - roughtly 12 months @ £500/month.

Of course weve lost any future residual income from previous singed up members of their various schemes but Im happy enough to cut my losses now

I dont really understand what 3business are playing at - no evidence from this process that they are short of money or even dispute anything - just feels like they cant be bothered with the admin of paying.

Hi, my first post here, I affilaite with MMS3, well I have a couple of sites I don't really promote anymore, however they do get a bit of traffic and seem to be selling as well. Just looked into my account, well tried to as it is a right old mess, broken graphics all over the place and the homepage is blank (deep links still work). Does anyone know if they are still trading?

Also any recommendations of ringtones I could use, would need a CSV feed or similar, most of the others I have looked at seem to only offer a template solution...

Many thanks

[bhutz]

I don't think they are trading anymore, I sent an e-mail to the contact address and you get an automated reply, I'm really not happy with this one.

If anyone has gone through the courts, is it a long process and do you know if you can still claim money back if they have just changed their company name?

[bateman_ap]

Their parent company, 3business (www.3business.com) seems to have this in operation

Also the feed seems to be updated this morning, I just can't get hold of them!
