Wow haven’t been here in a while – I’d forgotten my password!
It’s nice to see some activity again particularly on this subject.
I filled out the claim form but well to be fair, we can’t see everything that Microgaming and Grand Prive can see and I’m sure as hell they dropped or mis-mapped a bunch of my btags when they moved from the older ‘Referspot’ to Grand Prive.
I wondered what triggered Grand Prive to start communicating at all about it and I can only think it’s because of all the bad pages they now have dis-crediting them that perhaps it’s starting to hurt them now and that this is one way of starting to reduce that.
From my point of view, if the casinos can still afford to operate then regardless of T&C’s – the RIGHT and REPUTABLE thing to do would be to bring the affiliate program back online, pay up all the commissions that would havve been earned and then try to re-build trust with the affiliates they annoyed so badly.
Of course based on their past activities, I wouldn’t really be surprised if someone has been working in the background re-tagging, re-mapping stuff for those affiliates that have spoken out against them so that even if they did bring their program back online – things in the back-end would have been rigged to look like they’re paying out fully on historical but probably not really doing so lol.
Can’t help but be cynical about them really, but if they do make up financially for losses I guess that would the only start.
I could find my last payment and date as I’ve had statsremote for years and this has all my history for all my gambling affiliate programs (definitely a handy tool for looking back), but like others said – getting all the tags without the program being up is pretty much impossible as I’ve removed all the links I had and backups that far back have since been overwritten with more recent ones.
I look forward to see what happens next!
