Good ridance Handango. If this means we will get paid for the last eight months of sales in our Handango AMPP store I support it.

I am sure Handango kept charging developers, but somehow "forgot" to pay the sales partnerts in some cases.

Contacting their support goes nowhere. The people who worked with partners were all gone, and the AMPP email on their pages is now a non-existent mailbox.

The most pathetic, unresponsive, lethargic, dishonest, greedy software vendor in the history of the internet.... good riddance!

After getting screwed over twice for double billing and exchanging email with clueless twits for nearly 3 weeks, then receiving letters saying the case was resolved and wanting my opinion... After that, I'd to go out of my way to buy software from anyone but Handango.

Die Handango Die!

Man do I feel better now ;-)

Maybe they'll also do away with the rip off charge to redownload what you bought. Never paid it and never will.
