Nel 1999 un mio amico mi convinse a sottoscrivere Spedia, lo usai veramente poco, un po' per scetticismo un po' perchè mi connettevo raramente con la possibilità di usarlo un po' perechè rallentava e crashava il sistema sovente. Dopo 4 anni ho raggiunto poco più di 30 dollari, poche settimane fa, OTTOBRE 2002 ho richiesto il pagamento così poi me lo levo dalle palle. Mi hanno subito chiuso l'account mandandomi un email con scritto che nel MAGGIO 2001 ho usato dei programmi per frodarli: i loro nomi sono IEXPLORE.EXE (il browser) e STARTER.EXE(il mixer della SoundBlaster) e MSGSVR32.EXE (un file di sistema win98)!!??
Se era una società seria mi avrebbe dovuto comunicare a MAGGIO 2001 di questi problemi, ma evidentemente così perdeva utilizzatori da mettere in conto ai suoi sponsor, buffoni!
Proprio un bel comportamento, mi sono fatto prendere per il culo per 4 anni! Sia per usare la barra che per ricevere le loro email.
Se c'è qualcun'altro che lo sta usato e aspetta di essere pagato consiglierei di mandargli una email per richiedere la propria condizione in modo da evitare brutte sorprese al momento di riscuotere.
State attenti, non perdete il vostro tempo/denaro.

Dear XXXXXXXXX:
We investigated your account and concluded that at this time we will not be able to reinstate your account. Unfortunately, it appears that you have used a software product that is prohibited to be used along with SpediaBar. Although, your concerns or explanations may be valid and sincere there is not an effective way to prove that you have used this software in an error and/or without knowing our company policy
and/or someone other than yourself has abused our policy.
Since we can not conclusively prove that all the facts are correct, we can not establish a solid ground to reinstate your account.
Spedia apologizes for this outcome and the inconvenience it may have caused you. We understand your concerns, but we hope that you understand ours as well. Spedia has a huge membership of millions of users. In order to provide consistent service to our members we must provide a normal operating environment for our
business, to protect our members as well as advertisers. If we do not establish clear operational guidelines and lock all accounts that we believe abuse our
policy we will loose our relationships with both members and advertisers, and ultimately go out of business.
We hope that you will accept this letter as an official explanation of the reasons behind our decisions.
Spedia has a strict procedure to finalize all account locks. Once a month
our tech staff reviews all recently locked accounts and performs reinstatement
procedures if required. If and when you account is reinstated you will be notified via email.
If you have any further questions you may reply to: account@spedia.net
