Suspending the Zecco Referral Bonus Sharing Program

I started my own Zecco referral bonus sharing program back in December 2007 when Zecco relaunched its Zecco Friend program. At the beginning, it was actually pretty good. I sent new customers to Zecco and got a $50 bonus for each new customer shortly after they opened and funded a new account. I then shared part of the bonus with those I referred every month.

However, the last time I got a referral bonus was in early March. Since then, I haven’t received a penny from Zecco. Though I have answered some 20 requests in the past two months, none of them signed up for a new account. I don’t know whether it’s the problem of Zecco or people just changed their minds after receiving the link (I do have a couple of people telling me that they did open and fund their accounts as required, but that wasn’t reflected in my Zecco account) , the result is that the program hasn’t be very effective lately.

In February, I contacted Zecco when a reader questioned the referral link I sent to him. After providing detailed information Zecco asked for investigation, I never heard back from them again. And I don’t want to spend any more time dealing with them with the issue. So to avoid making promise (to split the $50 bonus) that I can’t deliver, I decided to suspend the bonus sharing program unless I know exactly what has been going on.

I have updated the Referral page to reflect this. But there are other referral programs that are still available. Take a look if you need any thing.
