Be A Magpie SUCKS....

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:
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.

Carlo

    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.

      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.

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

      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.

    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!

    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.
