re: #115 Charles

Thank you! Yeah, after more than 15 years of good standing with Amazon Associates, they suddenly sent me a notice my account was being closed with this reason:

I have absolutely NEVER bought sponsored links on search engines, for any purpose at all. When I appealed this, someone responded with a form message that assumed I was applying for a new account and had been denied.

I responded to that and requested to have it escalated, and got no reply. Repeated it, still no reply.

And when they did this, I was owed several hundred dollars that their terms of service allow them to NOT pay.

It was a shitty way to treat someone who has sent them many thousands of dollars of purchases for all kinds of products.

Does this mean that anyone can shut down another person’s Amazon Associates income by placing an ad with their link on Google?
