Its worthless (I dont of course mean mel) but the program. I am away but will share details in few days when back. its funny and ridiculous, but you are not getting that money.

I really hope you just chasing old earnings and not promoting them. if you do, your fault.

So no, i wasnt paid. MissExpose contacted them, they told they are checking and nothing happened of course.

I got in touch with them again, got another promise that i will be paid in the future, told them that its been months and i want to get paid today. And then i got the most ridiculous reply which was:
"Another affiliate is paid on this Wednesday , another scheduled next Wednesday, May 14, and I will be paid the next Wednesday may 21st. Btw, they of course didnt mean paid fully, but just like 10% of what i am owed."

You can guess what happened on May 21st.

Bottom line: they have no money and they do not pay. I think they pay small amounts to 2 major player forum affiliates to keep the players they already have afloat and trying to steal as much money from us and them before closing shop.


@melcb , have a question for you. Its as asked with complete respect. I really do not understand why you still have their links live on your network. I assume they are paying you some amounts and giving lots of promises, but they are gone. They are trying to milk the players they got in the past as much as they can before they close, so for now you manage to get paid a bit, but we all removed them so that money stream is drying up, you are going to end up next to all of us if not now that in the near future. And same for all the players. Why dont you remove them, and let them close what should have been closed long ago.

Btw, i am not against any business in struggle, i always hope that it can recover. they are not willing to. I offered them few months ago to pay me 2/3 of what is owed and 1/3 i take on me, we go to 0 and i will promote them again. They refused. The only people that will refuse that is the ones that do not plan to pay even those 2/3. Bottom line, you have more experience in this bussiness then i do, but i am pretty sure what i said above is correct.

Hi Kadabra,

Its not an ideal situation:/ As long as a casino remains operational, we do not remove it from our platforms. Our core principle is that the player always comes first, and we aim to provide comprehensive reviews supported by player feedback and ratings, forum discussions, and other relevant information. With that said we have significantly reduced exposure for the Vegas Crest brand across our network, this includes a pop up suggesting highly rated alternative casinos to try instead.

perfectly understood, and makes sense. i missed the pop up part, otherwise wouldnt ask.
