The only reason you were able to continue getting orders is because you were still listed as a NICO sponsor. In the real world, if you sign up for something for a month do you not make sure you are not still being billed afterward? I know this goes on all over the place. Sign up and unless you specifically tell them you are done you still get billed.

Did you receive any invoicing? If so, did you simply ignore them because in your mind you had only wanted one month? Why did you continue to do business on NICO and slinging products within your sponsored thread if you had no intention of still being a NICO sponsor?

Sounds to me like you were simply wanting to "ride the train" without paying the fare because the "conductor" was not asking you for your ticket at every stop. VERY unethical business practices, IMO.

"Accusations"?

No wonder your biz is going belly-up. You can't just pay for one month's advertising, expect someone else to "babysit" your business, and then continue to sell without keeping up your end of the bargain.

You ignored invoices. Unethical and clueless.

I don't like it when people steal from me or the people this forum serves. You've done both.

Wow And here I thought all the sponsors were reliable, weeelll looks like its time to stop lurking on the 240 forums and get to Nico, Btw Greg the window stickers fit perfect and I got a ton of questions and comments about the shirts at the mall on the way out
