Widgetbucks claim "Ads suck - Ours don't"
Well yes, there widgets pretty and nice to look at and yes, they probably don't suck.
What does suck however is the sudden banning of accounts of people who have placed widgetbucks on their sites.
A lot of people who signed up with them are now finding that accounts have been banned, and all earning that they had are gone. Some people have had thousands of dollars taken back from them, after finding out that their accounts have been banned.
Have you recently discovered that your widget account has been banned ?? Have you lost all earnings you had in there ??
If so, please share your stories here. I am one of the many people who signed up, and was excited that this could be a nice alternative / compliment for Adsense and other PPC programs for publishers.
Suddenly, I am not so sure any more. My lose of earnings was minimal to what others had in their accounts before they were banned.
So my question is this..... If all of the earnings from these banned accounts were from fradulent clicks, and what other excuses they use for banning members, what will be happening with the earnings that have now been taken back ??
If a member had one widget that was placed on a site that was against the terms and conditions, then removing all earnings from that widget would be the correct thing to do.
However, why are all other earnings and widgets being deleted from accounts at the same time ??
With the first "Pay Day" just around the corner, it would be an ideal time to start banning members and retaining their earnings. It seems as though over the last couple of days, many members have suddenly found themselves banned, and without any explaination.
Could widgetbucks be the biggest scam and we all fallen for it ??
Your views and experiences would be most welcome, as I know that there are many people suddenly feeling very cheated and p*ssed off with what is happening.
