Like all your other posts in this thread you are promoting your own web site for your own profit and have been doing so for the past year (earning £4.80 in commission per free trial). At no stage have you declared your interest as the owner of magsite.co.uk. This as you are well aware is totally against the terms and conditions of this site - I have posted proof that you own magsite.co.uk here : http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=3991350&postcount=53 and although you have edited some of your previous posts to try and hide the evidence the original text of your post is in the link above. As there have been over 140,000 views of this thread I would guess that your signups number in the thousands - a lot of money at £4.80 for each magazine trial and would suggest at the very least a donation to a one of the mse charities would be an appropriate gesture?

competitionscafe, I tried to send you a PM buy you inbox is full ... It is not possible to earn £4.80 on all the magazines listed on Magsite, I know a handfull are shown on MSE Cashback Sites: Quidco | Rpoints* | GreasyPalm* | Mutualpoints*but a very few. From what I understand magazine subscription sites don't like MSE, as users tend to cancel subscriptions once the special offer has finished hence why most direct links wont work from the board. I think you'll find most of the traffic for magsite comes from google, type magazine subscription into google and magsite is on page 1. If you think Magsite should make a donation then why not suggest that by using their contact form. You appear to have an site with 100% affiliate links as you homepage in your profile. Difference with magsite i think is they don't have loads and loads of affiliate links. Most of the offers are direct to the publisher and no one benefits apart from the customer. The other thread you've hijacked about Elle magazine with a free gift was posted by the forum owner MSE Martin.

I've checked everywhere for ideal home (above offer) and theres no where I can find allows you to get any cashback or commission.

I will not post anymore about your issues, please contact me via private message in the future as this thread is for Magazine offers - 3 for £1, free gifts etc ONLY POST OFFERS HERE

Your post has completely ignored the issue - that of your dishonesty in spamming the mse forum against the terms and conditions with hundreds of posts promoting your affiliate site without declaring that you are the owner of said site.

As you well know, the £4.80 is for any of the magazines listed on the magazine group site, of which there are "over 500" according to them; including a number of 3 issues for £1 offers:
http://www.magazine-group.co.uk/magazine-group/categories/

Direct link to 3 magazines for £1 offers (which by the way, all work just fine without your affiliate link):
http://www.magazine-group.co.uk/magazine-group/best-deals/

3 issues for £1 direct (non-affiliate) link: (She, In Style, Delicious, Marie Claire, Mens Fitness, PC Pro) + 6 free issues of The Week:

One of the ways a site gets a high listing on google is when other websites link to it - (more links usually means a better Google ranking) - therefore by posting hundreds of links to your site on here against the terms and conditions you are directly AND indirectly benefitting (by increasing the number of links to your site). Google also takes a dim view of sites which try to falsely boost their link popularity and pagerank by spamming popular forums with links. Affiliate programs also take a dim view of being promoted in this way. I am sure Magazine Group [ http://www.magazine-group.co.uk/magazine-group/corporate/contact-us/ ] and Affiliate Future [ http://affiliates.affiliatefuture.com/contact/default.aspx ] do not approve of spamming as a means of promotion.

You mean your contact form - I think here is far more appropriate given that this is the forum
which you have bombarded with links to your site and benefited financially from those links. I think a donation to an mse nominated charity is appropriate too given that you have dishonestly used this site to make money.

Exactly, it's in my profile where it's suppossed to be and where your site should be too - it's not posted on here in my posts over and over again. (For what it's worth it does not have 100% affiliate links either). However the point is that it's in my profile as unlike you I am not hiding the fact that it's my site - but it's not in any of my posts as that's against the mse rules and in any case I don't post on mse to make money out of other users.
I have been thanked 755 Times in 374 Posts (without having to ask for thanks in my signature!) because (like almost everyone else on this helpful community forum) I post to share info which other people have hopefully found useful and with out expecting anything in return - NOT to plug a web site I own, repeatedly, to earn lots of money spamming the forum with links to that site and not declaring ownership of that site....

Not true - magsite has plenty of affiliate links (to magazine group and several other affiliate programmes) all of which benefit you!

I think you will find that you 'hijacked' that thread - the second post in that thread is from you posting your affiliate links to other magazines to earn you money - even though the thread was about Elle magazine and the original post had a link to your site, you got greedy and posted your affiliate links for other magazines. Clearly Martin and others were not aware of your spamming of the forum which is why I posted in that thread.

6 months ago I asked why you kept posting links to your site against the forum rules:
http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=2460736&postcount=7 - you chose to ignore that and carried on spamming the forum.

That's strange as you have affiliate links to the magazine group Ideal Home magazine page on your site!

(Goes to http://www.magazine-group.co.uk/magazine-group/categories/home-and-interiors/2630/ideal-home.thtml )

Obviously I was not referring to 1 magazine offer - I am referring to your over 100 posts on mse dishonestly promoting your site - totally against the terms and conditions of mse. For this you have yet to provide an explanation or an apology to other mse users.

Finally, I realise that this thread is for "this thread is for Magazine offers - 3 for £1, free gifts etc ONLY POST OFFERS HERE" - however as the majority of your over 160 posts over the past year have been in this thread promoting your affiliate site, it seemed the most appropriate place and I think the other posters and readers have a right to know.

I think someone needs to speak to Martin Lewis and make sure people trying to make money are banned... also named and shames if making money on the sly...

bigbadgoggs

I agree, and all credit to Competitionscafe for his/her detective work on this one.......

patchwork_cat

competitions cafe - is there a cashback site that we can go through to get £4.80 back on our own subscriptions to e.g mens health 3 for £1? tia

howey78

Ever thought of a career change Competitionscafe? Im your the police could do with somebody like you Nice work. This post has made me laugh!

Please reply Tamzin2006 I really need to know how you can justify this one. :P

Well, well, well nothing surprises me any more. I was seriously thinking of nominating tamzin2006 for Post of the Month. I used to think she was making all this effort for the benefit of MSE users and not her spiteful self......
