The member who sent payment never received a wholesale membership account.<\/p>
any partial or full refunds\/reembursments\/discounts\/etc will result in loss of services on TopSurfer.com.<\/p>DO NOT GIVE AWAY WHOLESALE MEMBERSHIPS!<\/h4>

in it’s buttons (so that the button can be changed dynamically by our scripts and prices, etc. can be changed depending on which package the person wants
to buy). As a wholesale member you are required to use one or all of these services if you wish to sell wholesale memberships. You can not bypass these
methods and use your own. You should not be paid directly. This system is meant to be automated and since you would receive 100% of the money and TopSurfer
does not make any money from the upgrade, then this needs to be automated with little involvement from TopSurfer. Also to make sure the person is in your
downline and to make sure that they should be paying you, all payments must go through the system\/scripts at TopSurfer.
If you receive payment from a downline member and they did not use the automated method at TopSurfer, you should refund their money and ask them
to go through the right methods.<\/p>
