BUT they engaged on me for my services.. and, I demanded for 50% of the total amount to be paid before commencement of work, and the remaining 50% to be cleared within 15 days from the completion date. So, 50% was deposited into my account for me to start the work and that is all the payment I received from Advertlets until now. It has been more than 2 months and yet I have not received anything from Advertlets. My constant calling and emailing almost every week has been ignored. Nobody answers the phone office. Nobody reply the emails. Josh Lim only once in a while reply me.. (that's after my constant calling but he never picks up) So, 3 weeks ago, I tweeted about this issue, saying that Advertlets owes me money and does not pay and Josh Lim, founder of Advertlets called me immediately upon seeing the tweet (WOW I AM SURPRISED HE CALLED!) and here's a summary from that call : 1. Josh Lim threatened me to delete the tweet else he will not pay me a cent! Yes, you all read me right, he threatened me. 2. Josh Lim said the reason for the delay is because he has no money to pay me. (FYI, I went to SSM to find out about his company profile, Advertlets are NOT POOR). And the remaining amount that he owes me is only RM750. 3. Josh Lim said he has no money, his staffs also has not even receive their pay! 4. Josh Lim said again, IF I still insisted to not apologize publicly in Twitter saying "Problems resolved", he will delay my payment for another 2 weeks. 5. I refused to do so because I do not see what mistake that I committed, so he continue on saying "Since you insisted that you are right, I will delay again and make it 3 weeks wait". Those were the phone conversation made 3 weeks ago. So, I make an agreement with him. I delete the tweet, you email me a Black & White document saying a date that you will be paying and I trust that you will make the payment by the date you promised. So, I deleted and he mailed me saying by 3rd September. Obviously, as usual, he DID NOT fulfill his promises again. Its already 8th September. So, am I scammed ? I believe I am.

I agree with your Eric. Its not about just about the money. But about the commitment to pay the advertiser. I should think again to join Advertlets.

I'm not sure! Late payment is serious problem that I think most bloggers don't like it. May be they don’t have proper system to track the payment record. I’m not sure!

Actually, some of their advertisers are reputable companies so they must have paid up so I don't understand what is taking them so long to make payments.
