Well, she's done it again. This time I'm a little more annoyed - I haven't been advertising since Peggy started sendning out emails saying that she may switch to ads only @ route66. But

Did anyone get an email saying ProfitSharingConcepts was turning ads only as well?

I didn't.

I'll be kissing good bye to those sites and to her as a WM .. this should not be tolerated by us as members. Not that we weren't warned about Route 66 - but still - it's a load of bull as far as I'm concerned.

At least there are still sites that have reputable honest WM with integrity.

i was just on the site and i had NO idea that she changed it over to a redeem only ad. i was soooooooooooo potty off!!! i didn't get an email or anything saying that it was going to change over. i was only about $8 away from payout too. i just went and deleted my account and on route66 too. i'm sick of that.

What a scammer. and a thief too.

any word on waggin tails going ads only? I put my account on vacation since I realized she wasn't paying...

I have redeemed at two sites, one the ad was run with very poor results. The other the ad never ran, I contacted her and she had no idea that I ever redeemed.

I planned on quitting anyway...guess I'll do it now!

Tiff

This blows!

Something tells me though we haven't seen the last of this ads only nonsense.

Haven't these people heard of a safelist???

That's what an ads only site is isn't it???

I had no idea this switched either until reading it here. I have been waiting for payout here for months and was almost up to requesting it again. Also been waiting at Route66 for months. I have no words to say how angry I am at her. I'm also in Lost in the 50's where I'm sure those earnings are lost in Peggys hands.

I AM ANGRY, WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS, I AM A UPGRADED MEMBER AND PAID $25 DOLLARS, I WANT MY MONEUY BACK WHAT CAN I DO, SHOOT HER...

And this is what shes got to say... BUT I BET US UPGRADED MEMBERS STILL NEVER SEE A PENNY....WHADDA YOU THINK!!??...

Dear members!

As you know the wait for payout is getting longer and longer, beyond the 90 days stated in the terms for some of you.

We have come up with a solution that we hope will be fair for everyone.

The site will now change to a profit sharing format, 75% of site revenues ( ad purchases, searches and other ) will be shared between the members and deposited CASH in your account ( paypal, stormpay etc ) monthly.

Upgraded memberships will be lifetime instead of yearly

Free members will be able to redeem for ads and upgrades only

Silver members will redeem for ads and upgrades and have 1 share

Gold members will redeem for ads and upgrades and have 2 shares

Founders members will redeem for ads and get 3 shares

On the last day of each month revenues for the month will be calculated and divided by the total ammount of shares, each member's share of the profits will be calculated and deposited on the first day of the following month if it exceeds $2, if not it will be carried over to the next month due to
high fees charged by online payment processors.

Earnings from clicking will now be redeemed for ads and upgrades only.


Amount revenue to be divided will be a direct reflection of member
activity and participation.



Perhaps some of you can have enough vision to see that a few dollars
each month is better than waiting months to get a larger one.

Link values will be 5c - 50c

Referral earnings increased to 50%, 5%, 5%, 5%, 5%


I know a lot of you are upset and have reason to be. But to share what
cash is coming in was the only solution I see. Its either try this or just
close. I have seen dozens of programs that have just disappeared and leave
you with nothing over these past couple months. I belong to a lot of programs
and click everyday like you, I have had my share of losses. I know the problems
we've faced for months about no ad sales are not unique to my programs. I
hear the same thing most everywhere else. I have put in for payout at a number of places months ago, half have just disappeared, in 7 months I have
recieved one payout. I watch my cash investments in 4 different auto surf programs disappear as the programs disappeared.


Any member who actually PAID CASH for an upgraded membership and does not feel
like their monthly ad benefits are worth the few dollars per month it equates to may request a refund. THis applies to CASH purchases only. Refunds will be
pro-rated from time of purchase minus the number of months advertising benefits
you already recieved. Once your purchase is refunded your account will be deleted. Upgrades that were redeemed for or those that were won in raffles
do not qualify for a cash refund as no cash was ever recieved.


I hope some of you will give it a chance. I never wanted it to turn out this way, but by trying to stick it out and find solutions I get plenty of
threatening and rude emails every day that I can really do without.Those of
you who choose not to stay sorry to see you go.

I think back over the past
year and all the changes that have occured. I have done hundreds of payouts,
some people said they got their first payout from me. Once people started
getting paid those members got behind the sites promotig them and BlueGold
went from around 800 members to 2000 in couple weeks, then 5000 within another
couple months then got up to 7000 before started cracking down on the inactives and cheaters. We seemed to be doing good but the influx of so
many new members all at once, the sales never increased to keep up with that
growth. In fact by January sales were decreasing and have decreased every month since. So payouts started backing up. That many coming in brought in more cheaters than I realised and let that get way out of hand before I realised what was going on. The cashflow changed completely

Someone over in India and who knows what other countries are promoting
these paid to read programs as "JOBS" which they are not.I am no ones EMPLOYER. I knew this was a growing problem back in Feb when a gentleman
from India emailed me at Route66 and said he was prepared to have 4000 people enroll within 24 hours and he would gradually upgrade these members wanting
a volume discount.

HMMMMMM MY HEART BLEEDS

peggy is not to be trusted in any program that she has. If she can screw her members in a couple of her programs she will eventually screw everyone else too. I already quit all of her programs, and if peggy shows her face anywhere on this forum I'll give her a piece of my mind.

Yeah - I'm dissapointed. Another $100 earnt never tio be seen.

Whats the point in redeeming for ads cos no-one will pay any attention to them - no-one can be bothered any more.

Oh well, just off to unsubscribe, and polietly tell her why.

getting angry doesn not solve any situation, nor does being rude.

People who are have lost the argument before they have started.

OMG I am so MAAAAD ... i never received any emails about either route66 or profit sharing concepts and i am out over 100 dollars as well ... i will never trust Peggy or any of her programs again and i hope that everyone will protest and quit all of her sites as i just did ... this is a travesty and i'm furious!!! I just spent over an hour at route66 clicking yesterday before i came here and found out it was all for nothing. There should be a law against this.

Yes i got it what about her other sites

Well Peggy I hope you enjoy my $47.11
Thanks for nothing!!!

I don't have any idea how the PTC industry works from the WM side. But it doesn't make sense to me that when you are having trouble paying the people who already earned money that you should send out tons of emails that will only bring more people to payout... more people to owe.

Of course you have to sell ads to make money, but if you aren't able to sell any ads, why are you sending out more emails worth money you don't have?? It would seem to me that it would be better to stop sending paid emails for a while (at least just barely enough to keep the members active).

Of course Peggy sent me an email some time ago when I wrote to ask her about payout and what the procedure was, etc. She promised me that she was going to pay everyone what they were owed, but that it might take a while.

Hmph.

Since I am reading this I realize that I am still on vacation mode with her site....
I REALLY need the $50 that I cashed out for so I've been plugging along still clicking here and there until I got it.

I'm going in to check out what's going on....

I wrote Peggy last week to mention that I'd read on this forum that she went to paying by ads only. I asked what that meant for those of us who have long awaited our cash payout and this was the reply:

lissaleone,

You were braver than I was. I wrote to her also, citing promises that she made to me that she would be paying her members "no matter what". She wrote me almost the exact same letter back that she wrote to you (the one that starts with "I have credited your request back to your account")

I did not bother to write back to her.

I went to her site to see about this upgrade possibility and I cannot even use my miserable $50 to get the upgrade and wait to see what happens next month. I will have to click like I mean it until I have reached $75 before I can get the upgrade that will allow me to "share in the profits" at all.

I am highly suspicious, of course, but I thought if the lowest membership was something I could get right now then I could skeptically stay a member long enough to see what happens.



This is the third problem site that I am going to have to quit for not paying. The first three sites that I reached payout with ALL failed.

Miserable.

Oh... and in reply to this section:

I agree with you, Veronica (is that your name?). Who ever said WE were the ones who were supposed to buy ads? All of the WMs who can't pay complain that the people who are reading emails aren't buying ads. That's not why we signed on; it wasn't our job to do. It says to get paid to READ ads not get paid to BUY ads.

I had just reached payout at profit and a few $s away at route66. I never got any letter about profit so I stuck with her, boy did she let me down hard. Since, I have redeemed for ads at both and have only seen the ones at profit. Its been over a week and my ads still not out at route66. Over a month ago I redeemed for ban imps, they never went out and that was before ads only. What good is a ads only site if they never send out the ads. I was a mem at 3 of her other sites and quit them all. Only used them for ads anyway thank god. Im hanging in at route66 to see if my ads go out. Peggy what a pitty. Your scripts bite anyway.

she seems to find plenty of time to send her search ads
which she keeps the money from

I have redeemed every day for the past 4 days and my ads have gone out promptly - the emails went out and the Paid-to-clicks were posted.

I don't feel anywhere near as negative about what she has done since she is giving the payday profit rewards with a $50 ad redemption.

Because of the size of my downline and her change in referral percentages - she went to 50% for first level - I am earning at a good clip. This will provide a substantial amount of advertising for me.

If she can pull off providing the PaydayProfit rewards and distribute the earnings from searches to upgraded members, this can still be a good program for me.

As she stated in one of her emails, upgraded membership is available by redemption, so anyone can participate in the distribution of earnings from the searches.

I had always found Peggy honorable - even though I had waited for payout for 5 months the last time I requested payout. Hopefully what her program has metamorphized into can be sustainable - because the other structure wasn't. But if it is sustainable, I think it can be good.

Peeg Yadom is the worst of the SCAMERS she is the real bit**
she deleted all polish (and others account's) with no any single word. She should be hang on the higher tree or atleast she shuld be treat on this forum as SCAMER
