“They incrementally depleted my affiliate earnings till there was nothing left.”

Us too. They claimed we were dormant and started taking $10 each month out of our account without warning. All the while we were still earning commissions (so how we could be dormant is anyone’s guess). It’s no wonder that eBay left them. Who would want to be associated with a group that engages in such unethical business practices?

We are currently disputing it with them, but who knows?

Our advice. Avoid CJ. There are plenty of others out there.

there is a new sales video on commission junction,and the man who speaks on the video is actually a man who is banned from clickbank on a previous scam.only he calls himself by another name but uses almost identical story that he used before…the payment acceptance is not click bank or google either,so i imagine refunds will be out of the question.it is quite disgusting in actuality.my advice is stay away from this crappy system…this is a sad time of great deception and my God show us the true way to success. Good luck to all of you!

They incrementally depleted my affiliate earnings till there was nothing left. I had about hundred in affilate earnings. I have promoted all kinds of affiliate networks in all kind of niches, and I mean all Kinds (Adult, Casino and many more). Nobody does what they do, and I mean no one does that. Not even the most eye brow raising Niche Affilate networks would bother doing that! Especially a company that size with tens of thousands of affiliates imagine if they did that to just 5000 affilates that is some half a million dollars of cash that they ripped off! Also there is no communication from them whatsoever in my case. They just chose not to answer about anything. Their support is lousy, an outfit their size could easily afford real phone support. They commssion junction have a kind of a lame ticket system which they answer whenever they kind of, sort of feel like.

I did a little research before joining and got worried reading about all the people who’d had negative experiences with CJ. So I decided to test the service after signing up: I got a friend to make a purchase through one of my links, and see what happened. Unsurprisingly, CJ never “registered” the sale. So it’s true what everyone says: Commission Junction is a scam. Bye, bye, thieves.

Wow, even though this is an older post, it’s still getting comments and people are still being cheated. I hadn’t realized there were this many people that CJ advertisers had stiffed. I’m going through this again now. I purchased a LCD projector for my nonprofit group and should have seen a nice commission from it. Not only have I not received that but the company won’t respond to my emails and now CJ isn’t responding either. Such a shame.

Commission Junction is a scam

We also had about $30 in commissions stolen from us by Commission Junction. Not a lot of money, sure, but if they do that to thousands of people, it adds up! What happened was that unknown to us, they marked our account as “dormant”, saying that we had not had a sale in 6 months. Maybe that is true, but they never notified us that our account had gone “dormant”, and without any notification whatsoever, starting deducting $10 per month for some type of fee until all of the money was gone, then deactivated our account, again without any notification to us. In the meantime, we continued to promote their links, and made at least 2 commissionable sales, which we were not credited for. Probably CJ got the commissions from the client and just kept them for themselves, since the sales were made through an affiliate link.

Bottom line is, do not trust Commission Junction – it is little more than a scam and a huge waste of your time and effort.
