A little background. I started in this whole thing of "FREE STUFF" back in January. I got my referrals for Mp3Players and cameras4free - things went smooth. I referred people, I got the prize.

I loved how well things went and signed up for notebooks account around that time. I continued getting behind friends to signup. One at a time. It was tiring but being my situation, it was well worth the time(or so I thought).

I finally had my 18 referrals in sometime in end of March/beginning of April. But few days later after inquiring, I find out 4 of my referrals were invalid. Okay, I try to understand *why* and after that just suck it up and continue referring more people.

I refer 4 more people. Wait for approval. And three of those four rejected again. Like a yes-man, I continued referring more people realizing how close I am to the 18 referrals required.

So finally I get my 18(perhaps a few more) . This was the THIRD time. I wait for a week or two. Then I contact OfferCentric. I get their typical one liner mails - this time though informing me that my account had been cancelled for "fraud".

My first reaction obviously was WTF. But from my past experience, OfferCentric I thought was understanding and we'll be able to work something out. Few days later another mail "sorry your account has just been cancelled for faud". I continue my plea PLEADING FOR THEM TO JUST TELL ME WHAT EXACTLY I DID WAS FRAUDULENT.

FINALLY things open up a bit: "You've been banned for having multiple accounts and using that as one of your referral".

That almost made me laugh and cry having worked for almost two-three months in getting this d**n thing completed and then getting a LAME and COMPLETELY unjustified accusation slapped against my account.

After that I continued writing pleas after pleas and would get the typical "you're banned for fraud" - COMPLETELY IGNORING MY PLEAS to at least tell me WHAT ACCOUNT exactly they are talking about.

Its been a week or two now since I've heard from them. I've since written to them multiple times pleading the same thing: WHAT fraud exactly I committed in legitimately referring over 24 people! (because some lame referrals got too excited and created multiple accounts and were rightly not given credit for to my account).

My suggestion is for EVERYONE to NOT WASTE ANY MORE TIME WITH OFFERCENTRIC ON ANY OF THEIR SITES. OfferCentric's lack of professionalism in communication and ignorance really makes me wonder how much longer they can survive.

It sucks to see it coming out of a company I once loved and recommended to many others but at the same time, you have to live with reality and the reality is that OfferCentric seems to NOT want to pay you for the rewards you WORK HARD TO EARN, following every little terms of theirs.
