Stay away from this company. I blogged about them a lot when they first screwed me out of my money because of their stupid mistakes and blacklisted them. More about this can be read here:

Float Interactive Removed From Affiliate List | Best Incentive Affiliates - The Best Of The Best!

Anyway, they claim to be back under "new management," which I think is bullshit. But even if it's not, why the hell would they buy a company that has a bad reputation already? When I contacted them about their old practices and how they should pay the members they screwed over, they didn't reply to me. So obviously I got pissed and posted about it and showed it to them. You can read about that here:

Float Interactive Returns...Beware! | Best Incentive Affiliates - The Best Of The Best!

So you know what they do? Terminate my account on their DT network and label me as a "fraud." Here is what they said about me:
Website(s) Givenhttp://rocketbills.com Reason Terminated This affiliate is a huge scammer, he runs rocketbills.com however came out with fraudulant leads each month, first month of $3473 in fraudulant leads and then next month in $2090 in fraudulant leads. Terminated ByFloat Interactive, LLC

I'm not too pissed about it, I mean I work with so many networks and they know that I'm no fraud. DT won't remove that about me I'm sure so it sort of damages my rep, but whatever. The real fraud is Float Interactive who used non incentive campaigns for incentive use. But it just goes to show you how their business practices work. Stay away from them as far as you can.

Dt has a feature that says terminated by X networks, but its unreliable and any network on DT taking DT's word for it is a moron, if you get denied because of that be happy, that network will eventually go down

Thats my personal 2 cents, sorry for going off topic somewhat
 
Sorta funny that "Float Interactive" actually "sunk". Hur, Hur, Hur.

Cheer up Shaz07!

It means nothing, absolutely nothing. While on directtrack some of our best pubs had the highest fraud scores and actual frauders, the lowest. Means nothing. Seriously though, you're on Wickedfire. I dont understand why you would work with someone like this. I almost dont feel sorry for the people on here who get taken. And, there's a shitload of them. Get it together people. Between guys like these who bust their ass regarding their business and actually help and respond here:

(Maxbounty) Steve
(Copeac) Krongel
(Ads4dough) Jason
(Motive) Brendan
(Aquasis) Bryan

Fuck sake, I dont understand why there are "nonpayment" threads on this board. Work with someone reputable like above. Guys like that are rare in this business. You may not know this but, every time someone posts about nonpayment from such and such network, you are not helping really. Yea, you think you are by posting the shit here but really you're not. You are only fueling the fire. Sucks I know.
 
I just know that float interactive owes us about 30-40k still and I too have emailed new management in regards to this with no response. I agree with you shaz that I think if your willing to take over a company with debt you should pay off the debt and try to build a solid reputation.

If they expect people to run with new management in the company and not pay the old affiliates/networks I think their out of their mind. They don't even respond to emails or im's. Not professional in my book.
 
Of course it was "fraud." He ran non-incentivized campaigns from Hydra as incentivized and then screwed over a ton of people once Hydra pulled the plug on him.
 
how ironic a name- I wouldn't work with someone named "Float" simply because the LAST thing I want someone paying me to do is float money and have no reserves/real assets/working capital.

Yeah I heard every affiliate network that uses DT can see that about me, I personally think it's a stupid feature also. But you're right, if they deny me because of that I shouldn't even be working with them.

I'm cheered up haha, I was pissed off for maybe 5 minutes yesterday, not about the money but about the bullshit accusations they use against me. This happened to me about 6 months ago (the money I lost) and last week they sent out an email saying they're relaunching and what not so I thought I should post about all this just in case another user decides to use them. I'm actually with all those networks above besides Ads4dough, so I think I'm good for now.

Wow, they owe me practically nothing compared to what they owe you. I don't understand why they wont reply to anyone, I'm all about exposing all this crap that goes on behind the scenes so lets see if a rep from float interactive shows up here. That'll be interesting.
 
Oh look they responded:

Hello,

I just checked with our fraud department. The reason your account was terminated was because we receive an extensive amount of fraud from you, 2 months worth and theirfore have decided to terminate your application with us.


Thankyou,

And this is what I said:
Oh really? Fraud from me huh? Sucks to know that you guys tried to scam hydra by using nonincentive campaigns as incent. Funny how you finally respond now, thanks for that wonderful explanation :). I think aquasis media also committed fraud since you owe them 40k.

Then they said:
Hello,

We are under new ownership, any mass amount of fraud we have found on the network has be rectified by closing accounts, and thus stopping future fraud in the process we are sorry about this however cannot take any future risks.

Then I said:
New ownership my ass. You guys are the ones that tried to fraud hydra and then when you get caught you screw over your affiliates and try to blame them? Don't worry about responding, nothing you say can get you out of this situation. Try googling Float Interactive. Thanks.
