Traffic Monsoon - Refunds and the Ridiculous


Something very odd is happening over at Traffic 'Drizzle' today.

First we have a huge surge of reports that people are getting full Chargebacks 
on amounts that were refused weeks ago. Then Charles Facebook page goes down for a few hours. Then Charles issues this utterly laughable post that says instead of affiliates clicking on 'ten ads a day' at 20 seconds each, they have to click an incredible FIFTY ads a day at 5 seconds each!
You can barely blink twice in 5 seconds, let alone view a product with the potential of buying it! What a total farce!
It seems to me that Charles is trying to get people to give up on Traffic Monsoon and walk away from it all. He is already blocking numerous accounts to stop withdraws so this is the next logical step. 
The burning question is:
WHY HAVE PAYPAL SUDDENLY STARTED PAYING OUT PREVIOUSLY REFUSED CHARGEBACKS AND REFUND REQUESTS?
I'll keep you posted on that one...!

From Charles Facebook page:

'Surfing only 50 MORE SECONDS per day. What this change will do to for YOU and Traffic Monsoon:
- Achieve Better Services
- Better Alexa Rank
- Help You Earn Even Better
- Increase Profit Margins In The Services We Offer
- Strengthen the Business
- Secure Long-Term Sustainability Due to Supply/Demand
- Deliver Visitors To Your Websites Faster
- Help you grow your Brand by reaching more of an audience
All that for LESS than 1 minute more of surfing!
How Will This Be Achieved?
Surfing only 50 MORE SECONDS per day !!!
- REDUCED SURF TIMER TO 5 SECONDS (NOT 20!)

-******* SURF 50 ADS (NOT 10)**********

- Reduce Surf to Earn Credits 2/3 For Paid Members
- Reduce Surf to Earn Credits 1/3 For Free Members
Think about it.
10 ads for 20 seconds each = 200 seconds
50 ads for 5 seconds each = 250 seconds
So in reality, the amount of time surfed to qualify in revenue sharing is only an additional 50 seconds than before.
As ALWAYS you can SURF unlimited sites to earn unlimited FREE advertising credits!
The goal of traffic monsoon services is to give advertisers exposure to their websites, and connect members with other member's offers. The goal also is to reward members who are actively clicking through the traffic exchange by sharing revenues.
What many have been seeing is that the Alexa rank has been dropping, and in addition, their ad credits aren't being used up as fast as they once did before.
I recognize that many people have left Traffic Monsoon because we've been placed into a position to part ways with PayPal, and funds are inside PayPal are temporarily held for 180 days. While this has had an impact on the number of people using Traffic Monsoon, we've definitely witnessed a steady amount of people beginning traffic monsoon and existing members continue to use Traffic Monsoon.
With the dropping Alexa rank, many have expressed the desire to see an increase to our Alexa, increase page views, increase traffic, deliver traffic faster, which in turn would result in increased demand upon our services -- To achieve this, I'm increasing the number of ads to view in a day to 50 ads instead of 10. BUT drop the time spent on each website to 5 seconds.
Why 50 ads in a day? Because with our current activity of members, not only will we see our Alexa rank increase, but also speed up the delivery of advertising service.
We'll also be reducing the credits to 2/3 credit when surfing for paid members, and 1/3 credit for free members. This way we place ourselves in a better supply/demand position and help use up advertiser credits faster.
This way our members ads are seen more, visitors are delivered sooner, and the desire to use our services can be felt and experienced through the whole of the industry; bringing our Alexa rank back up again!
Not only will it increase traffic, and our Alexa rank, but it will also help bring greater strength to the business as a whole.
Think about it. 10 ads for 20 seconds each = 200 seconds. 50 ads for 5 seconds each = 250 seconds. So in reality, the amount of time surfed is only an additional 50 seconds than before.'


And then, to top off all this, Charles stooge - ERNIE  - posts this on a TM Facebook
page:



 
'OK MANY PEOPLE RIGHTFULLY BLOCKED BECAUSE OF RECEIVING MONEY FROM A DISPUTE ONLY WAY TO GET YOUR ACCOUNT BACK IS SEND EXACT AMOUNT PLUS FEES TO: PAYZA@TRAFFICMONSOON.COM OR YOUR ACCOUNT WILL NOT BE RE-OPENED PER Charles Scoville.'

Which means that Traffic Monsoon is in BIG trouble!

  1. And? TrafficMonsoon made that clear that if one disputes and gets the money back, they would be banned. If they dispute they don't want to keep using TrafficMonsoon. They get the money back = they are free to go!

    You are only right when you point the ridiculousness of seeing 50 ads a day, I only accept this as a temporary measure!
