Hi Fixers 
Those who know me know I currently run (or used to) a GPT site using the shiftcode script. From my experiences over the last few months I would never ever recommend you to purchase a script from Shiftcode, Performa or any other Tom Dietzel company.
We have been a customer of Shiftcode for 2 years now spending a decent amount of money with them and due to their behaviors over the last few days I am now happy to publicly share with you what working with Shifcode is like.
The script itself is great. It does break every month as the monthly automation system is broke. There is poor infrastructure such as continued downtime, at one point the sql severs had to be rebooted every day as the entire platform become unusable after around 18 hours of uptime.
Our main issues with Shiftcode came about when every site on the platform suffered a massive data loss in November. This was caused by a hard drive failure and there were no usable backups in the last 10 days. To me that's unforgivable there are so many ways that they should be protecting data. Even a simple RAID configuration on the sql server with an extra hard disk would of solved this issue.
As December progressed more and more things on the script started to break. This included stuff like the integration with the performa network platform and a number of other features not working. As the new year passed the site broke even more with around 10 extra features we were given for free due to platform issues stopped working. The contest system also broke.
On the 3rd of January the support team broke the sites withdrawal system trying to fix other issues. At the time I was livid everywhere I looked something was broken and now the most fundamental part of the site was as well. I posted a not very pleasant post in the platforms support group on Facebook and also tagged Mr Dietzel in it trying to get some sort of solution before they killed my business.
Within seconds that post was removed from the group and I was banned from the support systems. After I few hours I believe I had tried to amend things regards to the post. The post from Tom himself was:
So I waited and waited and waited for some sort of solution and nothing happened. With at least a 2 week response wait for a ticket it's something I expected. As payment day came around for the script. I contacted shiftcode asking about the issues and if they can fix them or give me a date when they will be fixed. Of course a ticket around money gets answered in hours with the following response.
Upon asking why I was referred to the ticket about the Facebook Post made on the 3rd of January and due to that one post Shiftcode have decided to destroy my business after 2 years of being a paying customer.
This is not the first time they have done this and the reason you don't hear about it more is that every single admin who has a shiftcode/performa site is scared that if they say anything they will lose their business.
Why am I sharing this with you?
The aim of this story is to not trust Shiftcode , Performa or any other company owned by Thomas Micheal Dietzel . That includes platforms like Afftrack and thier affiliate network CPAWay.
All he is after is to make money out of you. Customer Service there is none and if you say something negative about any of his companies he will shut your sites down, your platforms down and destroy your business
As we the poor owners of sites on his platforms suffer he spends thousands on parties, conventions across the states.
We will be back with a new site on a new script by the end of this weekend as we were planning on moving away from shiftcode like many sites and networks are.
Thanks for reading and I hope if you choose shiftcode you realize you don't control your own business.
