• However the occasional newsletter is very useful with new ideas and the webmaster is always at the end of an email to respond to questions and comments 
• Payment always received reliably but the company made mistakes and clawed back the overpayment

• The Vidshop affiliate scheme is not for real. I have had no payment for 8 months. Emails continually promise that they they are looking into it but the months slip by. Drop me an email at webmaster@melonfarmers.com if anyone else has suffered similarly from the Vidshop affiliate scheme.
• They owe me over 10K. They haven't paid me in over 2 years. I am trying to find someone who can help me or give me advice about getting Vidshop.com to pay its affiliates.
• I have had an email from a second company who have not been paid by Vidshop so it is not just a problem with the Melon Farmers
• A 3rd unhappy reader reports: Having suffered at the hands of vidshop, I did get my money back - believe it or not!
• A 4th unhappy webmaster with a similar non payment story reports:
  I am owed over a grand and vidshop are not answering my emails. This is very annoying as I have sent them hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of custom over the last few years. They are throwing away a lot of revenue, as I now promote their rivals instead.
• And a 5th reports: Just changing dvd affiliates as vidshop are not answering any e-mails. They don't owe me a great deal but it's still annoying nonetheless!
• I have also had the same experience with Vidshop who owe me £60 and I have been trying to contact them for the past 6 months. No one has bothered getting back to me. I’m going to post in all the adult webmaster forums so people stop getting ripped off by them
• I have worked with Vidshop for around a year, and for the first 4 months I didn't get a penny, eventually they paid me, however things started slipping again a few months back. It seems that several large affiliates have pulled out recently and the remainder are having to fight hard for their returns. [Eventually Vidshop paid up after court actions mentioned]
• Allan: At least I know it's not just me then. I was doing well with them and regular payments but then the money just stopped coming. They owe me hundreds and I tried to get money but they said they would look into it... Then nothing, nobody answers emails!
• We haven't been paid by them for a few months and although this happened before they eventually paid, but this time I don't seem to be getting anywhere.
• Hmmm I see others are in the same boat...They owe me 800 Euros...
• 6 months of affiliate payments & £3000.00 worth of design work.
  How about a class action?
• Problems with them like you but they owe me more then 10k.
• Chris: I am another one being ripped off by vidshop, I have emailed and faxed no reply. Been with them over 4 years and have always had to chase for my money.
