Is anyone having problems with banner links to Carphone Warehouse?

Links either come back as page not found or in the case of a Free Samsung 200 phone, links to a page where the price is £149.99p. and page due to expire in Dec 2002!

Hardly a FREE phone then.

Despite several e-mails to CPW, where at first they claim not to have heard of the affilliate programme! They then claim to have passed it onto their E-Commerce department.

However a recent check reveals the same situation.

I have withdrawn CPW advertising until they can sort themselves out.

How relevant and current are the banners and links on the Tradedoubler site.

Some banners seem ages old, surely merchants and Tradedoubler should ensure that ONLY current and relevant banners are available, and not keeping an archive of oudtaded ones.

What are others comments on a) Carphone Warehouse and b)
the up to dateness of banners available?

eg on Commission Junction Argos have 111 banners/links but how many are current? They have a TV campaign currently for Summer Savings, but where is the relevant banner?

How interested are merchants in co-ordinating their marketing
strategy's across all media/platforms to ensure uniformity?

These are well known high street companies that we hold in high esteem as consumers, yet I am seeing them in a completely different light as an affilliate, and am disappointed in their failings in marketing strategy.
