Text Link Ads, Too Young to Bother With?

This is mostly a public service announcement for anyone considering doing business with the firm "Text Link Ads Inc." (http://www.text-link-ads.com)

They don't respond to support emails (see below) and they don't even have a way to delete your account on their website. Condescension and hubris, what a nice combination for a new firm trying to acquire business.

We've sent them a "delete this account" email, but frankly after they never answered our 3 attempts regarding, "If 17,000 page views in 16 days for a single page wasn't enough to get past your 'auto-deny' system, what level are you looking for?" we don't hold much hope on them bothering to act on that either.

With the widespread problems being reported by Google AdSense users, if you are a hungry Ad provider that wants an easy 1,000+ page views a day, add a comment with a link to your service.

Looking for someone with ethics who bothers to answer their mail,

Hello Support at Text Link Ads,

I've recently been 'auto' denied this ad block.

These are are current Awstats for the singular page, not including the other
