Join ALLi Today and help them fight #Audiblegate …

Recently there’s been a big issue with authors and ACX/Audible … and it’s not been good! It’s been dubbed #audiblegate … and you can read all about it HERE – In short, they’re allowing people to return audiobooks, over and over, using one of their credits … which results in authors not being paid … but it’s worse than that. Oh aye, it is. We don’t have the capability to SEE the returns in our dashboards … so they’ve not been reporting them to us … Yes, you read that right. Now, ALLi (Alliance of Independent Authors) are involved and have put out a Press Release … DOWNGRADING them … they no longer approve them as a service for authors and have put them down to a ‘Caution’ alert .,. Now, that is a huge deal! Freaking HUGE! You can read about that HERE!

Their investigations are continuing, which we are all overjoyed at … because this isn’t over. Not when there are thousands of us who have emailed and asked for information on our accounts … and so far … nada, zilch, nothing has been provided. I know, because I’m one of the people who have emailed, and emailed, and emailed … and I’m still waiting. Not to mention that most of the time the replies aren’t even relating to the actual emails sent … So, if you’re an author and want further information check out Susan May’s blog post HERE and if you want to support ALLi … you can join HERE. Go them for helping us out! This is a fight we must win … not just for us, but for everyone that’s been affected and let down by this disgraceful behavior…
