Late last year - I got asked to fax my tax info in before I could receive further commissions. I did that but didn't receive my commission check. A little later I got a similar email again asking for my tax info before I could get another commission check. Once again - I faxed my info in. So far I believe only 2-4 commissions were owed to me. Then once more this summer I got asked to fax my info in - which I did. However I finally called up and talked to a lady (in accounting)at e-scripts-md.com and wanted to confirm that my fax was received. Apparentlye-script's fax wasn't receiving my info and she gave me a different # to fax to. Finally I received a commission check - but only for one order. I called up the lady who I talked to and said I believe you owe me for prior commissions. She said she would check up on it but never got back to me.
I then got an email from e-scripts-md.com that my account was temporarily suspended due to low sales. I only promoted the birth control pills as prices were good at that time. I sold several orders of the birth control pills till I believe prices were changed and sales for birth control drifted elsewhere. I no longer can log into my account.
Let be very clear on this - any affiliate program that drops someone for low sales has their head up their ass and they suffer from poor affiliate management practices. I also happen to be an affiliate manager besides earning a nice living promoting affiliate programs. You see - dropping someone from an affiliate program creates bad PR (this post is an example). Not paying someone creates further bad PR. I tell everyone to stay away from e-scripts-md.com as they have shown me to be a waste of time.
I suggest e-scripts-md.com gives me a call.

PS - I make over $1000 monthly in prescriptions and e-scripts-md.com get's none of that business because of bad affiliate management practices.
Hi Larry,
Good to another DNforum member here.
IMO e-scripts isan honest company. They have paid me and many other affiliates here in time more often then any other affiliate program has ever done. Their problem is that they don't retain one affiliate director for more than 2 months, so everyday you speak with a new employee of theirs. Hope you get paid soon because a post on board like this can do wonders.
I am sorry you have had problems with Escripts but please believe when I say they are an honest payer and amongst the best out there. I support what phalaris says

I hear they are launching a new commisson structure to compete with EVA and the others [img]smileys/smiley3.gif[/img]
Hey - they may be honest but they suffer from poor affiliate management practices and apparently bookkeeping management as well. When they "temporarily suspended" me (now permenant?) - they really pissed me off. I will tell everyone to stay away from e-scripts-md.com until they settle the commission problem, reinstate me and send e-mails to all other affiliates they suspended for low sales. The only reason an affiliate should be canceled from "any" affiliate program" is for violating the rules (porn, hatred sites,spam, etc...). Hey - there was a likely chance e-scripts would have gotten much more traffic and sales from me because I have yet to build planned additional prescription sites.
OK - I know they won't likely reinstate me and all other affiliates they suspended due to crappy affiliate management policies ............. but I will "continuously" tell everyone I know who is in the affiliate prescription industry to stay away from them. That is just the way it goes - e-scripts will get bad PR from me everywhere until I am satisfied they have better affiliate management practices towards "everyone".

I have always recieved payments from escripts on time.
Just when I thought that I was out they pull me back in
One thing I forgot to mention regarding the email when they"temporaily suspended" me due to low sales- they said that after I made adjustments to my website that I could send an email and ask to have my suspension lifted.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL! Yeah right - I'm going to change a profitable site because e-scripts-md.com feels I need a sitere-diseign favoring them. Man - I think I am as pissed now as when I got that original email!

I've never seen or heard of being suspended for low sales. I know there are many affiliates out there who have never made one sale. I'd susupect you were suspended for something else as I know a few accounts were suspended due to the nature of the sites. I'm not saying you are one of them, but all I know is that no one except you has been suspended for low sales.
I have not sent a single new sale to e-scripts after July 14. Yet I get paid twice a month by direct deposit to my bankaccount for reorders.
