Totally agree that from a business and affiliate marketing perspective, this is low, and I would imagine deal quite a blow for those involved, especially as you say, in terms of rev share. I think instances like this, the revshare should become datashare, and you be given details of those visitors your have referred. This would then give you the chance to jump on the same bandwagon and tell your Sun Subscribers about an alternative. Just a thought.... So what are your plans for the future? You going to drop them following the way they have treated you? The Sun is scum! :D

Let's not forget that affiliates were an afterthought for The Sun to start with, their programme is only about 8 months old I think. Hopefully now that they have Jackpot Joy on board, their affiliate offering will be a lifetime revshare finally.
