Hi Spear,
I recently sent a letter to VA, here’s their reply and part of what I’d written them. it explains itself.
Hi Steve,
Thanks for your email.
Please accept my apologies for the delay answering your previous email,
as I have been extremely busy lately.I am currently in talks with our casino partners in order to assess the relevancy of a new system we want to put in place at Vegas Affiliates.
Since the way we operate might change, I think that agreeing on terms of partnership as of now would not be sensible, as some of our
terms and conditions might be modified in the near future.What I think would be right is for you to contact me again in the next few weeks,
as I dont have yet the full picture of how things will look like once changes have been implemented.Let me know what you think.
Best regards,Pierrick Lévêque
Affiliate Manager

Subject: needing an affiliate managerHi,
I am affiliate “bb1webs”
I’m writing today because I’m going to be giving your casinos a try on a limited basis. I’d like to begin a relationship with an affiliate manager.If your casinos produce, I’ll do my best to make us numbers like the three examples below, all from this previous month. I can show you more stats, though the next ones will not be quite as impressive. These are the kind of numbers that I have come to expect from my traffic, and will need likewise from your program a very good bottom line in order to justify keeping your links up.
I’m saying all this to you now in the most sincere hopes that we can enjoy a long and profitable partnership. That if you’ve any tracking issues, or whatever, that is going to make our debut together anything but a very pleasant and profitable experience, then please address those issues so that our partnership will have every possible chance of being as successful as these two programs
XXXXXXXXXXXX
I want for us to have no illusions about each other, and wish for you to know that I don’t say any of this accusingly, nor do I say it because I have any foundation for believing that your program is guilty of anything. Quite the opposite. If I didn’t think your program was honest i’d not be here in the first place.
Personally, I like to know where I stand with someone, and I respect straight-forward talk so that there is no mistakes made in understanding each other. so here goes:
If you’ve any thought of shaving or cutting players out of my account I think you should know that I have an excellent relationship with some players, and they do keep me informed every now and then of where they’ve been playing, and how much was spent.
I will be your program’s best friend and better advertisement than money can buy at any price if you treat me fairly. But if I catch your program cheating me, I’ll make it a point to
well, you know the rest.
anyway, I took from his reply that he was unsure of the tracking but would welcome my scrupulous attention after they put in the new system and had time to work out the kinks.

jus’ kiddin’.
