    Well, it's looking more and more like Canep Media is officially either dead or doing a runner... They not paying (2 months behind now), not answering their phones, not returning calls and not responding to helpdesk tickets..

    Total loss of USD$846.32, plus extra time and aggravation in dealing with it. Anyone else?

    I got paid from them before but I've dropped them a long time ago due to no ads in inventory. They only show search pages in iframe

    ADECN is owned by microsoft isn't it? Try giving them a call. I've still got an account with Canep but hardly used it becuase every time i added the code to my site, there are only 1 or 2 of the same ads always showing every single time, some "save the ocean or whale" and "child abuse" thing?

    ADECN isn't the problem as they are the underlying traffic platform/exchange operator, it's the ad network that uses their platofrm that is the problem.

    A call to ADECN will simply illicit a response along the lines of "you'll need to discuss any payment issues directly with the 3rd party ad network" which is absolutely correct, and Microsoft would just refer you to ADECN as it's just a subsidiary to them.

    Yeah none of that is terribly surprising and expect that's most likely a pretty accurate picture of what's been happening. At least when FoA had problems and stopped paying publishers Tim was very up front about it from the beginning, provided a few emails with updates and eventually I was paid about 80% of what I was owed (which is a hell of a lot better than nothing).
