For some reason the following commands aren't executed while in our crontab.
I don't know if it's something I did or what but I need help figuring this one out.
MAILTO=""
01 00 * * * wget -O http://classiccustom.site.nfoservers.com/vip/delete.php >/dev/null 2>&1
30 00 * * * wget -O http://classiccustom.site.nfoservers.co ... rabxml.php >/dev/null 2>&1
30 12 * * * wget -O http://classiccustom.site.nfoservers.co ... rabxml.php >/dev/null 2>&1

Who ever tested delete.php... I got the emails that it was ran.. which I don't from the crontab.

You should avoid running your scripts by downloading the page like that when you are executing them locally. Instead, run the script directly. This might, for instance, require changing a line to:
01 00 * * * cd ~/public/vip && php delete.php >/dev/null 2>&1
Running the script directly is far more efficient and avoids possible problems with rate-limiting or using up your allowed connections.
If you really, really want to keep downloading a webpage, you will need to change the wget invocation, as what you have is invalid -- "-O" needs to be removed or followed by the output filename. Or, you could use "curl" instead.
