Is adult friendfinder really a scam

melloman · 2006-01-05, 03:55 PM

Do they really pay? I was signed up to a few of there programs and the money was starting to build up. Then one day I couldn't get into my stats in any of my programs. I have been sending email to support for over 3 months but with no reply until last week. Now I hear nothing again. Anyone else have these expierence with Adult Friendfinder?

Wazza · 2006-01-05, 07:03 PM

They pay - but they have just about the worst support going... Expect a delay of at least 2 weeks on every email, if they bother replying at all

RawAlex · 2006-01-05, 07:48 PM

AFF is basically the traffic dump of the universe right now. Alexa shows it as one of the top 50 visited websites on the net. I don't think they have anywhere near the staff or the time to deal with individual issues on a prompt basis.

That being said, I hear nothing but good things about their payouts and acceptance of all sorts of traffic.

AFF can be slow about replying to problem but we have been promoting them for years now and always get paid with out any real problems

promoting them since 1998....never ever had one problem. Nothing but respect for this sponsor here. Great hands on support and co-op. Ask for Sagi he will answer all your questions even now while he's in Vegas at the moment.

Note that if your ratios are below a certain point they convert an initial ppc account to the percentage one. This upsets a lot of new promotors looking for a quick buck.

melloman · 2006-01-07, 06:20 PM

They are back to not responding to emails again. What kind of service do you call this?

flyeruk · 2006-01-06, 04:19 AM

Well I tried to change my address twice now and used the support form to have my details changed manually twice but have had no reply and my old address is still up. Just as well I don't send much traffic or I'd have pulled links by now.

never had any problems with them - they always paid me on time. got a greeting card from them with a picture of their staff; it seemed as if they're almost 20 persons. maybe a phone call might help

ronnie · 2006-01-06, 08:32 AM

I've always gotten paid on time without a problem. I've only contacted them a couple times over the years and seems they responded pretty quick if I remember right.

melloman · 2006-01-06, 08:48 AM

Amazing.. I finally got a reply.. Now they said in their records I never had an account with them. Wierd because I still recieve all there emails sent to my email on all the programs I send traffic to. I still have all my account affiliate codes etc. Wonder what happened..Do they just delete accounts when they don't feel like paying?

BlackCrayon · 2006-01-06, 09:38 AM

one of their terms says they have the right to close your account if you stop sending traffic. which i think its total bullshit. no one should have to lose out on rebills just because they chose to no longer actively promote a program. this could of been what happened but i don't know.

This isn't totally unheard of, although it sucks. iBill (eek!) pulled that one on us when we switched billing companies a couple of years ago (in my old "primary producer" paysite days). We were told in no uncertain terms that our rebills for sales through iBill would be forfeited if we were no longer sending them new sales. One of the many companies that iBill's ownership was passing through did finally release that money around 18 months later, so all's well that ends well, I suppose. But that's one of several reasons I shed few tears for iBill's near-demise. Karma catches up.

A.C.P. Carl · 2006-01-06, 10:03 AM

never had any problem with them. slow support but never a problem. So no need for support

neveremail · 2006-01-06, 12:27 PM

I'm getting a problem with their geo adverts.

I've got one on: http://www.bikini-sex.net/ and it makes the page load up really slow for me.

When I take the banner out it loads up find.

Any Ideas?

bestdutchrates · 2006-01-06, 04:09 PM

the geo scripts are slowing your site down. To avoid this you can put the script in a new page wich you load in iframe on your site.

bestdutchrates · 2006-01-08, 12:09 AM

For fast relief use icq instead of e-mail:

NickName: Sagi @ AFF
ICQ Number: 348-950-862

cheers

GenXer · 2006-01-09, 05:29 PM

They are one of the most reputable companies online as far as payouts go

Papa · 2006-01-10, 06:42 AM

1) Support sucks ass
2) Their shit is always slow
3) Converts alright
4) Pays !

Now you have to be lucky and that everything works fine cause if you got something f*cking up, you're screwed !

Sagi_AFF · 2006-01-10, 03:15 PM

I'm at a tradeshow until tomorrow, but you can send me an email & I can look into it. My ICQ is also posted here. I'm checking messages often while I'm out of the office. email: sagi at friendfinderinc dot com

AFF is a class act all the way around and they are one of the best sponsors period!

It is pretty disrespectful that you would even use the word "scam" to ask your question. There are a lot more professional ways to ask. Personally I would delete you as an affilate just for the way you asked the question.

When Sagi gets back from the show I'm sure he can figure it out for you he is very good at that.

Nice post count. Your attitude is certainly not one of a class act so luckily AFF has people like Sagi_AFF working for them and not people like you.

So that's why they never replied to his emails for 3 months and never replied to 5 of my emails for 6 months? So, thats' what "Professionalism" means?
