My Story, Part 1

Here's a quick summary of why I've started this blog.

Back in July 2007, shortly after Sunrocket went under, I signed up as a ViaTalk affiliate, posting affiliate links on my other blog, GizmoPasswords.

In the wake of the Sunrocket sinking, I racked up $3300 in affiliate sales. Unfortunately, month after month went by without a payment from VT. I decided to file a BBB complaint against them.

Just as the 30 day response deadline approached, I got a flurry of emails from VT, eventually resulting in the payment of my sales. I was assured that this type of delay would never occur again.

Apparently, I was lied to.

I now have $410 in confirmed sales that haven't been paid out in over 60 days. Left with no other option, since VT has lost it's BBB accreditation and is no longer obliged to respond to them (they now have over 10 "no shows" on their BBB file), I have prepared the claims and summons paperwork for filing in Gloucester County, NJ.

I will post updates as they warrant posting.
