Closing Account @ Albumo

(1/9) > >>

takestock:
I have twice requested to close my account in the past few weeks but with no response.

Anybody else taking the same route and with similar experience?

Pixart:
Others have commented that there has been no response to these requests so I have been taking the "1 per day" route.   Albumo is the first site I've dropped.  Thank God I didn't upload much - I think I sent over 100 initially but only pushed about 35 through,  the unfinished ones could be deleted right away.  I have 18 more to go. 

I first deleted the most commercial ones, and then the people shots with the most views and then the rest.

Wouldn't it suck huge if I got some big sale that ALMOST hit payout in the next 18 days and they got to keep the cash?

snurder:
I closed mine successfully in Feb with only one email via their contact form. THe ever replied, but I just tried the login in the days following the request, and on the third day I was locked out. THen did some searches where I know only images of mine woud turn up (some unique subkjects) and they were gone as well.

Maybe they are PO'd because there is possibly a mass exodus going on.

They shouldn't be doing any b%tching about people leaving - after all they were a total failure in marketing the site. There was some web activity in Nov 2007 with some link placements here and there on the web, but after that it all stopped.

I was there since very late Sept 2007. 300 images, fifty cents in sales - a photo of cookies. Heck I ain't no Yuri, but I'm not exactly the bottom of the food chain either. I try to look at it more as an education rather than a giant waste of time - sometimes that works and sometimes that doesn't!

Velvia:
I`m giving Albumo one more month...
No use really.

Kerioak:
I have been trying to leave them but they won't let me - correction,  they will let me but they will retain my images for 400 days - I do not remember seeing this when I joined them and it contradicts other terms on their site anyway.

I have posted in their blog to this effect but they ignore it.

I am removing one a day as well, I did start changing the titles to links to the same image on other sites but that did not work.  However changing the title to abcd etc does stick but takes ages if you have a lot.
