This is true for all the products sold through ClickBank. They unfortunately sell some scammy products like MyPadMedia, but at least they require all the vendors to offer the 60 day refund.

After the purchase, you received an e-mail stating "Receipt for your ClickBank Order#". Scroll to the bottom where it says Customer Support and click on the link http://clickbank.com/cs/...your order#. This takes you to Customer Support at Clickbank. Click the link that says "Click here to get support". The next page asks "What problem are you having" and gives options to select. Select "more options" and you'll see the refund request option. They also ask for a reason and select "was not satisfied with the product". They'll send a refund request notification e-mail to you, and another when the refund processes. I've returned two products for refunds and never had a problem. Refunds process in about 5-7 days. im.h, here is how to get a refund from ClickBank for MyPadMedia.

The message above you states the ability to get a refund ... have you done so? I definitely recommend trying! @im.h – in another article you can see that Judie did also join and found the same thing – even worse, as they were stealing the feed from another site without permission!

Total... total scam. they have only Gutenberg books, which is free and you can get them directly from iBooks for free. I can even give you my username/password to see for yourself.

This site is used by thousands of internet affiliate marketers that often do not check out the quality of a product before they market it. They simply make small websites that regurgitate the marketing info from the vendor, or worse, present bogus reviews on how great the product is just to make sales. I know this because I am an honest internet marketer and I am disgusted by some of the terrible products that Clickbank allows in their outlet. They really need to screen these products more closely to validate the product claims. However, Clickbank does offer many good products too. If you want to purchase the MyPadMedia product to test it out, all Clickbank products come with a 60 day money back guarantee. The vendor has no control over this and the refund is made through Clickbank. Just save the confirmation e-mail from Clickbank and there is info about contacting customer support and that is how you request a refund. Hope this helps.

I can assure you they do not use ethical practices for advertising. I would suggest 90% of the forum spam we get is from them right now. On further research the only sites I see with positive responses to their software also are covered in ads for their product. Does anyone know of a review of someone that actually payed the 50 bucks? Thanks for the article, I look forward to seeing how this story develops. I have been getting spammed from these guys for awhile now.
