  Angry Capital Sports Reversals!

Cant believe what I'm seeing today I've had all Capital Sports 'Locked Sales' reversed for August!!!

Thats 40 accounts down the drain at $30 a time!

WTF!

Can anyone else shed any light on this???

This normally happens when a merchant hasn't paid an invoice, if/when they pay CJ reverse the reversals.

I've had some of these from a different merchant so its probably a good time to check those reports!

Yeah, I took my links down in Sept but I still would of thought they would pay up for Augusts Performance - August of course was a huge betting month (start of footy season) - I guess thats why they waited until Sept to deactivate

Are we likely to see the money owed to us?

I'll survive but recently this has happened alot! thepool owe me ££££ as well and no sign of that money either!

only that your not alone by the looks of it

I could have a proper rant at this but will wait and see what the response is from CJ - not a good start to find out second hand but it may be they have a plan to pay us what we are owed so ill wait a bit.

Ive sent an email to CJ so we'll see what happens.

Fingers crossed

I feel a bit better now after a coffee. A Wales win tonight will take my mind off things

Capital Sports are paying affiliates for sales in August, but they aren't doing it through CJ. I got an email from Capital Sports on the 22nd of September asking me to send them a CJ report (.xls format) of the sales I had made in August, and a screenshot of the CJ page showing the sales.

I have not been paid as yet, but I expect to be soon.

Same as Leggat
Ive emailed them for August and September

I dont have the original email from them any more but I mailed my screenshots to customerservices at capitalsports.com.

They seem to have developed a very ambivolent attitutude towards affiliates of late. Im planning on calling the MD tomorrow to find out whats going on so if anyone wants me to make any points to him then feel free to PM me with your concerns and site details. I might have more luck if I can say "all these sites are pissed off with you"

Thanks for the info guys

Dont really know what to say. They made a really dumb move I suppose sums it up .

Tell you what stings though is when they first arrived we were doing 9 - 11 accounts a day for them and who were they??

We only slowed it down as the tracking didnt work properly IMO

Glad I did now and I wouldnt take their money outside of the network as I dont think its right that they dont get their cut unless its above board and agreed with CJ.

A few hundred down is not much - much less than they will be down once the grapevine gets into action so easy come easy go I say - another one bites the dust!

  Thumbs down

Is it me or does this happen alot with betting merchants. Seems like every good one that comes along and pays a reasonable amount ends up doing this.

Every time I have a go a betting one of the big payers pulls a fast one. Not impressed

Any Success?

Woaaahhh!! This is an old topic.

I sent an invoice off with figures and a screenshot from the CJ page showing the money earned. I haven't received a penny though. It wasn't much though, thank god.

Nope CJ mentioned it at the last get together that was Nov - not heard anything since - out of sight out of mind sums it up.
