For me, they have performed sporadically. I did make some 28,000 with them, but there were some nice months and a whole lot of lousy months with them. Many or most other programs are not fluctuating like that for me. Most may have a bad month or two, but they don’t have these wild fluctuations.
So, for me, the term is a total deal breaker, retroactive or not, because it would cut into my revenues. Yes, they did act admirably during UIGEA, and that is why I did send them players. But that doesn’t mean I have to let them walk all over my revenues.
Secondly, I will never under any circumstances agree that any program is justified to impose retroactive terms. It will turn our entire industry on it’s head and we will lose big time. It sets a precedent. You bet that a ton of programs are watching this unfold and are ready to jump on the bandwagon. Why pay if they don’t have to?
I do make money with them, but I am not afraid to speak out and I have pulled them as soon as I heard of the term and they did not attempt to settle this on CAP.
IMO this whole “contact them” thing is just a minor part, the major part is that they will not pay for what I deliver. I would be a fool to build up an even larger player base there, I am getting out before it hurts any more than it will now.
That’s how I see it, and Lou, I am sorry but I just can’t approve of retroactive changes. I think they will kill our profitability. Other programs will jump on the chance to do so themselves. We will be screwed.
Besides, with so many decent programs at this time, why waste good traffic on one that won’t pay?
