I know not many here promote them anyway, due to the predatory terms described in this thread:
https:// www. affiliateguarddog. com/forums/vc-affiliates-predatory-terms-t2407.html

But just a warning to any who do - be ready to receive a size 9 up the jacksie if you don't meet your sign-up quota. :mad:
That's what just happened to me last month.
I'm not TOO pissed about it, after all - it's their loss!
I'm only a little annoyed that they will still make money of the players I sent them, while I wont get a penny of it.

I have a similar (but worse) situation with Blue Square who also booted me with NO warning at all.
I'm hoping to negotiate a deal with them, if not I WILL be pissed about this one as I earn reasonable money with them... :(

Yeah i started a discussion about that and something else last year where Julian the head of affiliates came here and said something along the lines it was a case by case basis and not always enforced. I know for me at the time they let is slide - I continued to work with them - send almost no traffic but still manage to pick up a couple casino players or poker players.

I keep them so i do not lose earnings but in fact they are predatory just like Bwin is and several other programs - I know its so frustrating. For me with Bewinners it was so hard to axe them and lose all earnings but you gotta do what is best for you right..

Really sucks they do these things it really is. I think if you email them and ask to speak to the head of affiliates. Not sure its still Julian but he can be helpful if he does in fact reply.

I had to email him at the time over and over and i would not stop and was constantly on to him until he replied. My issues was solved and i was paid from them.

Recently i asked them work out a deal with me for really pushing UK traffic and they refused to budge at all - just basically said more or less (not in these words) keep what you got and will get nothing more.. LOL

So i decided to just not increase exposure and send my UK traffic elsewhere but maintain my account to get revenues from previous players.

Quotas are a no-no. I won't touch anyone with a quota with a ten foot pole.

Lol - they didn't even accept my application. I'll take that as a blessing then. :p

Yep - it was.

To add insult to injury I just got a Newsletter from them today - and at the bottom they encourage you to e-mail Victor himself with any feedback...
LET VICTOR KNOW
Email Victor {victor@victorchandler.com} any comments or suggestions.

So I sent him a very polite e-mail saying I was unhappy and why...
... and it bounced back as undeliverable!!!

What a shambles this outfit is. :(

Yeah i mean its really unfriendly how they operate. The AM i was dealing with when i asked them about working more closely did a fine job. But they certainly are quick to decline anything. Its their way or the highway. Very cheap affiliate program as well. No room to make money.

Funny thing - as i was just about to remove them (i only list them to keep active - and not have them close me down) I got two slots deposits. LOL

IM gonna leave them there for a bit even though they are a pretty bad outfit and see what happens for a while.
