I am an affiliate and also a client with my affiliate ID: 98125748 and my client ID 342787330. I suspect that I am cheated by this Internet Marketing group- Their website URL is http://www.1on40.com.
I sent them three emails so far. One on June 22nd, next one on June 26th and the third one on July 22nd, 2008. In my last email I even indicated that I would take egal action. They have not yet responded. Their silence makes me more concerned about their Internet business.
I admit that I have been attracted by their offers. Here is how they advertised which I have quoted below.
"Use 1on40's 100% FREE submission service and YOUR site will be NUMBER ONE on Google, Yahoo and 38 other TOP search engines for FREE."
"Use our search engine submitter once. Experience the revolutionary FREE service and watch your web site shoot to the FIRST result of Google, Yahoo and 38 other TOP search engines in 120 days for your 5 keywords, then pay us (bid) to stay at NUMBER ONE position."
"This FREE offer only exists while we are BETA testing our service. Try it now for FREE before we release the paid for service."
"Pay nothing for our unique service until you see your web site at the NUMBER ONE Position on Google and the other 39 TOP search engines for the 5 keywords. Get top result for once - FREE."
"Once at NUMBER ONE position we will leave YOUR web site there for 7 days to prove our ground breaking service. Then you need to start paying us (bidding), for our 'THEN PROVEN' service and carry on having tested our service without risking your money like you would on other hyped up SEO services that under perform or simply do not work."
"It costs nothing to give us a try... You have to see it work to believe it, there fore we don't charge you a dime until you have - GUARANTEED.
"Become an affiliate to EARN a MASSIVE income from giving this unique service away during BETA period. Join us now and get paid credits to bid on keywords or CASH in for 20.00GBP/$40.00USD subject to terms. It costs nothing to join 1on40."
"What would you pay to get NUMBER ONE result on Google and EARN 1 Million GBP/$2 Million USD net profit from YOUR existing web site or business risk free? YOU pay us nothing until you get to NUMBER ONE then you bid on keywords to stay there."
"Once at NUMBER ONE position we will leave YOUR web site there for 7 days to prove our ground breaking service. Then you need to start paying us (bidding), for our 'THEN PROVEN' service and carry on having tested our service without risking your money like you would on other hyped up SEO services that under perform or simply do not work."
They have summarized their service description and their promise as follows:
We put your web site at the very 1st result on Google & Yahoo and the other 38 TOP search engines for the 5 keywords above in 120 days for FREE. Then when you see the money and results flooding in you will bid to keep the position. If you don't bid your site will drop extremely fast right back to where it started from within 14 days (usually 7 days). Successful bids are on average ONLY 10% of YOUR net profit (that is the profit you end up with after paying tax and expenses etc.). You can offset bidding by earning credits from introducing clients and affiliates into our service. We GUARANTEE our service. YOU test our service before you start bidding. If 1on40 does not get you to 1st result on 40 TOP search engines to include Google and Yahoo we will not ask you to bid. YOU only bid when you are NUMBER ONE!"
"We will NOT ask you for any sort of payment until you see your web site NUMBER ONE on the TOP 40 search engines to include Google and Yahoo for all 5 keywords you have ordered.
Along with their free offer of promoting their client's and affiliate's websites to number one position on Google, Yahoo and thirty eight other top search engines with in 120 days, they came up with their advertising offers to make money from their affiliates and clients.
Quoted below are advertising offers
"1on40 Advertising. "Get UNLIMITED signup traffic from 1on40's back offices. See peoples STATS! They're making $$ from us."
"Buy An Advert Earn Cash. It is FREE to join as an affiliate."

"You get paid a credit for every client you introduce to 1on40.com."
"You get paid a credit as an override from every affiliate your whole down line refers."
"You get paid a credit as an override from every client your whole down line refers."
"The more affiliates you refer directly means the more affiliates that will refer other affiliates into your down line earning you a credit each one."
I am not sure how many people like me have been cheated by these seemingly cheating ways and broken promises and lost lot of money. On my part I ordered three Ads spending more than $350.00.
I believe they are still selling Ads and making lot of revenue. It is true that as of today August 22, 2008 I received more than 100,000 clicks and my three ads are displayed as "live." and I believe my Ads are still running
But I have not been compensated for my efforts. I have written to them that I would like exchange credits for 20.00GBP or $40.00USD CASH. (as they have stated in their ads)
To my surprise and disappointment I have not received any response to my three emails sent to them so far. Also I don't think that my website has gone to number one position on Google, Yahoo and 38 other top search engines.
I have reasons to wonder whether I have been cheated by 1on40.com and their broken promises.
I want to thank you for your service and guidance in this matter. I wonder whether I can send my complaint to Better Business Bureau in London
With Best Regards
