3 Mobile Affiliates - Worst Performing Mobile Merchant?

I would love to just see confirmed sales as mentioned by Mr Foo, I for one am sick of seeing just how much gets declined on 3's program both on and off buy.at

I have mobile phone selling site but we sell sim free mobile phone.

Just had another sale.

Was going to get a friend of mine that works at 3 HQ to confirm whether the sale had gone through but it failed the de duping process. What a surprise!

I think it is time to remove them from my site.

Is any one else thinking of resorting to similar dramatic changes?

So if I make a sale today, how long later in total should I check before I can see its a confirmed sale?

Any news on an updated system which is clearer to affiliates

okay, anyone give me any kind of indication:

I've got 22 sales from three mobile total commission £1115.50

From this how much should I realistically expect ? I've been previously assuming 10% so £100ish

That's why i love AFFILIATE FUTURE, because their sales have no pending format....Almost all the sales occurred in my panel is confirmed......I love to use it...

Problem with 3 Store is still continuing untill Buy.at make their system as prominent as AF.

I'd also like to see pay per app. Seems like the logical solution. It works really well on Orange, O2 and T-Mobile. If a sale is reported we know it's going to be paid. There are no removed, declined or duplicate sales.

As for commission rates, affiliates who deliver unusually poor quality leads could be asked to leave the programme or move to pay per sale. That is how other merchants deal with the problem of lead quality on a per lead programme.

Hi! Darren,

I send a PM to you but you can't respond me....I joined your affiliation programme and you told me to point my domian (http://www.onlinephonecontracts.co.uk) to an IP address....I do so ...but you can't respond me....

3Mobile

Any more info on whether you may consider moving to pay per app ?

Im getting more and more demotivated to promote you, im seeing 80% of sales rejected.

exactly the same as with me
3 are blatently ripping off affiliates rejecting sales when they see fit

My stats are shaping like this... Three and Buy.at Please can you try and sort something out to get paid per application, i'd push 5 times the volume if it was!

Any update three?

I thought that this thread needed a bump. Just checked the payment status on buy.at and would you believe it.... there are a number of 3 mobile deals that have not cleared from January! Come on 3, we have listened to the rpoblems that you have had, we have had assurances that you are working to correct these and yet 3 months down the line, you are still failing to clear payments that are nearly 2 months old,

I'm sorry but this is not on, especially considering you also have the worst decline rate of any mobile phone provider!

I would say that 3 have yet to sort out the problems that they said that they were trying to fix and therefore I would avoid them until they come up with a proposition that is fair to affiliates such as pay per app, as the other networks offer!

If others have had a similar experience to mine, please keep this thread alive and let other users know about the program here!

3 mobile is Worst Mobile Merchant .. I agree with you

His confirmation ratio is very low and takes 5-6 months for approval. I am very frustrated with 3 mobile and its affiliate network buy.at also.
