Be A Magpie SUCKS....

CarloD. · 04-06-2010, 08:54 AM

Hey Warriors,

I have been trying to work with Be A Magpie for like 5 days now....

and I have to say it sucks.... no rules outlined anywhere... my ads keep getting denied.... support sucks....

I put 20 dollars in and don't even want to try to use it anymore....

Anyone else feel the same way? Or has anyone used it with good results?

I tried direct linking and they said that the site doesn't work.... because it was a US only offer, and I was only targeting US.... again not outlined anywhere....

Then I setup a blog ....that was a gateway to my offer... instead of direct linking and the accepted.....

Go to test out another campaign and now they denied it because:

Quote:

The reason why we could not approve the message is as follows:

Your ad links to a site whose sole purpose seems to be the collection ofemail addresses and/or personal details.

..... I have contacted support multiple times with NO response....

brutal.

I suppose, you used a Squeeze page. The Supports comment is ridiculously funny! I am sure, they don't know anything about IM.

It sounds as if that bird has flown the coop. I would try to get my $20 back. Good luck with that.

CarloD. · 04-06-2010, 09:49 AM

Ya, They are really starting to aggravate me.... it's just more and more bull****.

The worst is they approved an ad... and denied one... the landing page was the same.

Ya because they wouldn't approve because it was US only offer... i took a screen of the landing page and made an image... with TOS COntact us About Links.... all links went to the actual landing page.

...didn't fly though I guess.

sooooo frustrated.

That's terrible. You should try and get a refund.

LMC · 04-06-2010, 10:03 AM

Horrible, horrible service.... even when you have an ad approved you get no conversion

CarloD. · 04-06-2010, 10:08 AM

Ya I think Refund is in order.... or I'll have to waste it on useless advertising.

I thought about phoning them... but I think that would make my head explode... and I don't like being one of those guys screaming at the call center rep.

Carlo,

I actually did get a refund from them. Same thing, was trying to promote a US only offer and they would not approve it. Flip side is I did go back and use them for a worldwide offer and did not do so bad. Just make sure that you are promoting a worldwide offer before using them.

Does magpie work for cpa only, or for affiliate items in general?

Yes, Magpie really sucks. They don't have a good policy about Squeeze pages. I setup a website to give away a free e-book while my visitors sign up for a newsletter and the ad was declined saying the sole purpose of my site was to collect e-mail addresses. What they don't understand is that this is a popular marketing strategy. They really suck!

Domainoutlaw · 05-09-2010, 03:13 AM

I have never used them. But my friend did and he told me they were terrible. I am glad i didnt try because they sound aweful.

Affiliit · 05-09-2010, 05:18 AM

what offers are you trying to promote?

AdvertiseSpace · 05-09-2010, 05:34 AM

I agree they suck, and don't use them to try to make money off your twitter accounts either. I earned close to 50 pounds on one account and then they banned the account and never paid me anything.
