Linkworth Not Paying Out?

Discussion in 'General Marketing' started by skaterkee, May 22, 2014.

  1. #1
    Does anybody here use Linkworth to sell link spots on their site? I hadn't used them for years, but got involved again recently, only I've found they aren't paying out.

    Their reports say they made payment on X date by Paypal, but there's no sign of it and they're not responding to tickets.

    Anybody else in this position?

    Yes! I have three payments for last 6 month by PayPal. But I did not receive any money. One of my tickets was closed without any answer. Another one is open still.

    I sent multiple tickets, and through their contact page (when you're logged out) and they did finally pay.
    I guess just be persistent.

    When I sent the first ticket, they cancelled all my LinkAds and then closed the ticket without answer.
    I'l try to send them message through their contact page, thanks for this hint ;)

    That sucks :(. Haven't been using them actively for quite some time now.

    I guess it's a good thing I switched over to TLA / teliad.

    I have sent them 4 tickets but they have not responded to any ticket. They just show that payment was made but no payment is made. I think I will complaint to their hosting company or better still send a legal notice to both Linkworth and the hosting company. This will stop their hosting service. I have no other option left.

    I too was recently scammed by Linkworth. I emailed to ask why I was not paid and they quickly closed my account. I've also heard that they are deliberately telling bloggers that clients cancelled link ads in a sneaky attempt not to pay you. My advice is to write to their clients and warn them that Linkworth is not passing payments on to bloggers.

    They have been suffering a few times over the past year or so with PayPal suddenly freezing their account and when this happens they don't tell you about it unless you kick up a stink over not being paid, which doesn't make them look professional, why not just hold your hands up and say "sorry guys, PayPal froze our account, we'll pay you when they unfreeze it"?

    I have same problem with linkworth. They refuse to pay to me 249,3 USD. I have sent several complaints to support and to admin but there is no answer.
    After my complaints i can't access linkworth. Now i have contacted paypal and their hosting company about this and i have sent all the proof "invoices and other copies" to paypal.
    Paypal and hosting company told me that i should tell to all users that have issues with linkworth should send them to paypal. Publishers please be aware Linkworth is SCAM site.

    Sorry to bump the old thread.

    How many of your guys got your linkworth payment issue resolved? I am in the same boat and wanted to know if they will or will not pay.

    Linkworth is a crap! I was also scammed by this company. And duh! I've been sending them lots of tickets but I think, they always ignore them. What possible steps can we take to get our money back? :oops:

    Chiming in to say that I realized about a month or so ago that I have not been paid by Linkworth in ages. I used to get it with no problems every month. I finally removed the ad, and got their crazy automated message about the ad being removed. So now I am emailing them again.

    Ugh.
