    I agree with that as well but they should have foreseen that before they launched the program.

    It's not just about them being honest, It's about how fast they suspend users, How they lie and how they try to Avoid paying.

    Thanks for your support, And don't be sad :), it's not about the account as much as it is about the way they run things.

    Great review Wasted, best widgetbucks review i have read on the internet

    Hope you get your account back and good luck if you don't and go the other way

    I have been using them on some proxies, and had great success with them so far - mixing with other ads etc

    I think its sad that some ad networks will do their dam hardest to not pay out, obviously this increases their profit margins so they have a great motivation to do this.

    I think this is a general trend which all are involved in, including google!
    This needs to be stopped or at least rules and regulations put in place to protect publishers.

    I agree for the need to protect advertisers, i use ppc myself so reducing click fraud is a must, but to use this as an excuse to ban publishers without payment is wrong.

    For example a lot of people across all ad networks get banned, with no earned money given to the small time publisher.

    I pay for ppc campaigns and i have never had a refund for click fraud so where does this money taken from the publishers go?

    Rant over!

    I just hope widgetbucks bucks the trend (pardon the pun) and pays out to publishers that try dam hard to promote their sites & thus the ads they place on them.

    Still, they should not lie about their policies, that is unacceptable. I sure hope they are not a scam as my CTR is only around 1%. I will join you in a class action is they suspend me.

    If you read the other topic you posted in, someone left a comment with their blog comments, people are not happy.
