Thread: BestPay/Maxine refuse to honor agreed upon deal!

Best Pay has refused to honor an agrred upon media deal made by one of the Affiliate managers (Claire) and confirmed by Andi, whom she obviously reports too based on email communication. This deal was confirmed via email by Claire and confirmed by Andi in an email forwarded to me by Claire.. The deal was to commence May 13th and run for a period of 3 months at a rate of $300.


As I was waiting on payment to be sent I spoke with Maxine in order to get the media agreement paid. Maxine claimed, as marketing manager, to know nothing of it and requested the confiration of the deal email be sent, which I did even though this seemed strange to me that an Marketing Manager wold not be in the know odd a deal HIS staff made and senior staff confirmed and authorized.

As soon as he recieved the proof of the arranged deal he immediatly refused to honor and proceeded to bash my site in an unprofessional manner. I advised Maxine that I had turned down another deal once recieving Claires offer and therefore to reneged on this was unproffesional and completly unacceptable. Max's response was he could care less and said he would pay only $300 and not the agreed upon $900.

I demand that Best Pays act in a professional manner and promptly send the balance of this agreement. I hvave yet to see such a high level of unproffesionalism from a marketing manager and am appalled at his lack of ability and inability to act accordingly.

I advised Claire and Andi and she stated that she had told Maxine that I would be posting the results at CAP and also forwarding a complaint to the G.A.U as I feel it is my responsibilty to advise other affilaites who may be considering doing a deal with this outfit. Maxine seemed completly indifferent and could careless that BestPay would be seen in a bad light amougst other affiliates and I think this goes to suggest that Best Pay is not a program to work closely with at all or even give banner space to.

I for my part will not act in kind and will keep banners up forthe month he paid after refusingto honor the deal. I know in 3 days it generated over 1350 imopressions alone, not bad for a garbage site eh Maxine??

If Best Pay has any hope of being looked upon in a professional light I'd suggest they enter into negotiations asap and get this matter resolved. Currently they are refusing to do so.

I'll add to this post should they see the light and step up to the plate as they should. Maybe Maxine would care to enlighten the affiliate community why he believe it is just to act in this manner.
