This programs looks like a very stable and long term paying program. 1.5% daily up to 250 days. 10% referral commisions. Period might be shorter than studiotraffic by a few months but pays half times higher. They are 100% backed by offline and online businesses. Provides excellent support with forum to start with.

some one get payment?

To all the members of Estrix Surf.com,

This is an announcement to inform all our members that we shutting down Estrix Surf.com effective from today (11/18/05). I know it is sad to get news like this but please read on. Our growth is slow ever since last month and looking at the phase we are going, I decided to close this site after having long meeting with our team members. There are several reasons I would like to highlight to our members personally.

New Sites
There are too many new PTS sites giving out higher daily earnings. Giving them an opportunity to gain extra money within a short period of time. It is the norm for people to gain more interest in investing in these site compared to ours.

Diversification of Investment
It is a good idea not to put all the eggs into one basket, but it will not be the case for PTS site. For a start, it is impossible for a new PTS site to generate a 30% or higher every month to pay they members. To achieve this, they need at least 5%-10% healthy investment growth and the rest will be covered by their existing businesses. Based on our researched, there are many members that didn't reinvest their payouts into our site . I know this is beyond of our control but my point here is members need to support and stick those PTS site that can live up with their promises.

Cost of Maintenance
Many of you would think that maintaining a PTS site would be a piece of cake, a place where people pool their money and make payouts on time. We have invested in 3 servers, 1 web server and 2 servers are clustered to run the MYSQL database. I'm proud to say that our sites did not went down for more than 4 hours and we always answered all the support emails within 24-48 hours (we have about 100-400 emails daily). All this doesn't come cheap and it is an expenses to us, well I'll leave those math calculation to you guys.

SCAM Sites
Each day we see new PTS site launches and closes down in less than 4 weeks without paying their members back. With all the bad experiences they have went through it is hard for them to have the guts to invest into new PTS sites even those sites have the capability to generate profits for them.

I would like to cut this short, we will start to do refund next week. Please read below for your attention.

1. Surfing and Upgrade option will be disabled. However, members still can have access to their accounts.
2. There is no refund for FREE MEMBERS.
3. There is no refund for MEMBERS that has gain profits from this site.

If you fall in these category then please DO NOT send us any support tickets regarding your refund. For others, we will refund 40% of what you have invested. Therefore, if you already receive your 1st payout then most likely you would not get your refund anymore. If you have any specific question, please send us a ticket.

P/S: Please be patient, it will take some time to complete your refunds.


Thank you

Steve Johnson
CEO Estrix Surf.com

Very well thought out business decision. Nice to hear there will be refunds. Now is the time that people should start using caution in joining new autosurfers if they aren't already, as this is a good example of why they 'may' close. Another reason: scammers are moving into this area; it's just another way to take your money.

They must be a very savvy bunch here, `cos in our poll of which programs would still be here into the new year, no-one actually voted for this one.

I`ve read just now about a couple of members who`ve received promised refunds which is better than a kick in the teeth.

Well, well. Same letter as was sent to GCISurf members.
Hm. Wonder if purchase of autosurf software includes free "goodbye letter" templates -- you know, fill in the name of your site!


Or . . . ???

Yes, it`s really weird. Speculation they might be the same admins but it`s unlikely one will do refunds while the other treats it`s members like morons.
