    I understand using this plugin as free comes with a trade-off like a branded, watermark.
    However, there is no excuse for incorporating a flash ad which refuses to close when clicking ‘X’ and sends the surveyor to the advert’s site without intention.
    Visitors and developers need less deception in the world.

    Dear Polyfade,

    I am SO sorry to hear about this flash ad experience. This is ABSOLUTELY NOT part of our Survey Plugin, and I want to investigate this ASAP!

    Can you please send me an email at Support@powr.io as soon as possible. Please include:
    – the email you use to log in to POWr.io
    – the URL of your site

    Again, this is NOT part of the POWr Survey. Please help us investigate and remedy this today!
