it must be you had already join as his/her refferal but he/she tricked you for not mentioning and order you to register with another id .. which you will maintain 2 of them and that would be benificial for him/her i never experience such things, oh please, i dont want to be tricked .. anyway, nice share .. i suggest, you focus on what you had already register .. i dont really get it why do you want to be another downline as people tend to be " have no boss, but has subordinates "

It is usually the other way around for me. I have someone that is supposed to be in my downline and then when they sign up they are nowhere to be seen. This happens for all kinds of reasons and a lot of times I know the person and ask them to sign up again and make sure the URL they used was correct. There are other companies that have certain rules and restrictions. As for you the only thing I can think to do is e-mail/call the company and ask them what is going on. Zelo

Well I have had so many experiences like this when I was starting to look for online opportunities.I was excited at first, cause you know the way they present the advantages is just to tempting.Only to find out later , that I was just being used. So, slowly I learned the ways, and I started to browse first for feedbacks regarding a site that I am going to work on. If they say a lot of good things about the site,I go for it. If the site is getting a lot of criticisms, I really waste time on registrations. To tell you frankly,I am not really convinced of these sites wherein you have to give them referrals just so you can work for them. It's a one way traffic.

I do a lot of sign ups in task sites, and it happens every 15 or 20 sign ups. Last time, it was a month ago, and the payment of a sign up task was refused because "can not find registration or automatically voided due to duplicate lead" : I submitted a complaint with an email showing the name of the referrer -- it is a MLM site -- and a link showing that I was able to log in, and the payment has been done two days later. You can send a ticket to the admin of the site saying that you have signed up under xxx, and asking him/her that you cannot find the name of your referrer : you will certainly know what happens. If the referrer name was "forgotten" by the site, go away, it is scamming...

It's either he mistyped the referral link that he has given to you or you have already visited that site before through other's referral link and it's still saved on your browser cookies, or the site just have a bug. It also happened to me, one person I refer to a site has not been my referral even though he used my referral link. It really happened sometimes unfortunately.

Maybe its a bug you can send a support ticket to the admin of the site to resolve this. Or maybe you didn't double check it before you register? If you think its a bug then just send a support ticket to the admin.
