Back in 2014 networks were more honest about conversion tracking. Now I'm seeing consistent 40% discrepancy between my tracker and the network.

The pattern is too regular to be random — they're shaving a fixed percentage.

Anyone dealt with this successfully, or is it just time to switch networks?

Confronting them gets you banned. The only leverage you have is leaving. Take your traffic to a network that doesn't shave.
