in both. and yes when he pops for 30 sec or less he is not charged;but if he stays he is getting charged for first 30 secs, but has to stay at least 31 sec

Who the hell came up with that stupid rule? (That's enough post-camming vodka for one evening.)

I'm new here (obviously).

I am on Streamate as a new model and am doing ok :) I love camming very much for several reasons.

But I'd like advice on something:

Has anyone ever been approached by men wanting to be your "secret boyfriend" or something similar? It makes me a little sad for these men's wives who they are "not happy with" anymore. Do I indulge this man or is this dangerous territory?

Help?

What's up with people taking you private, not making ANY requests, just sitting there expecting you to do whatever & when you start to do a little something, they leave and give you a 1-star rating? I mean really..are we mind readers? Gees, Louise...

Email support ask them to remove the rating :)
This might sound stuck up but here's my logic...
They barely stay a minute and rate you one star....they didn't stay long enough for you to even give them a show so you don't deserve one star.
They stay a decent amount of time but rate you one star....well if they didn't like it wtf did they stay then rate you one star....
Sometimes I think these guys think if they rate you a one star they can dispute thier charges and get thier money back or something.

Im not saying girls never deserve one star....but most of us do our best to give these guys a great expirence so no most of us don't deserve it.
I have gotten one stars when I had technical issues on my end and accepted them...but if I put on a good show and a guy rates me a one star....I'm going to get it removed.



Who the hell came up with that stupid rule? (That's enough post-camming vodka for one evening.)

It is stupid but it is one of the features on SM that protects us from chargebacks...
I've had privates where I've had so many peepers I've missed out on $25+ because of how many ppl hopped in and out butttt I'd much rather the free 30s than log on one day and see someone was refunded for a 30 minute private.

I wouldn't even go there if I was you. Streamate has strict rules about how models can't have outside contact with members. I imagine that if this dude's talking about being a "secret boyfriend," he's gonna expect y'all to be having text messaging and/or phone call conversations? And he has a wife? Nah, don't do it. It's not worth getting suspended or banned from SM. There was a model on here who got suspended on SM just because she was petting her dog on the head...smh.

And the only way I could see you pulling off the secret boyfriend thing is if the guy happens to already be following you on Twitter (you're not even allowed to discuss Twitter in your chatroom), and y'all communicate strictly through Twitter/personal e-mail about this arrangement.

Streamate is REALLY getting on my nerves. It takes them a fucking WEEK AND A HALF to let me know they need "a valid ID", because apparently, my NATIONAL FUCKING ID DOCUMENT, which is good enough for all other camsites, isn't good enough for them. And then, after uploading a different one (passport), takes them another FUCKIIIIING WEEK AND A HALF to tell me they "need clearer copy of Photo ID & Headshot".

You know, after reading this thread recently and seeing how many models are having issues with their software, how slow the paying traffic has been lately and some great models deciding to leave the site for good, I have a hard time understanding what's taking them SO FUCKING LONG to approve new models. Really; this is ridiculous.

I have tried e-mailing Vanessa and she never answered any of my e-mails. Haven't tried Liz yet, but, then again, if things are starting off this way, I can't even imagine the kind of stress I'll have to go through to even work. If any representatives from Streamate are reading this, here goes a message: it's NOT WORKING like this!

Exactly what she said but I want to add a bit more since you are new....
You will get this a lot, maybe even everyday.
These guys are lonely, that why they are on cam sites. You give them company while they pay. Sure if they are a regular email with them on the site, keep in contact but this isn't a dating site or even a sugar baby site. If they want one of those expirences they know where to find them.
This guy most likely just wants free attention. You sound a bit naive about it....be careful is all I'm saying.
A lot of the guys on cam sites are genuinely nice guys but a lot of them seem genuinely nice and are simply trying to scam you and being under the new model category more or less puts a target on your forehead for those types of guys.

I've been asked for a guy to move in with me, was proposed to 3x last night, someone emailed me their number saying "give me a call when you ready to fuck" (I contacted support about it), I have people give me their number in free chat daily and I explicitly say we are not allowed to have outside contact with the members and I'm not getting in trouble (suspended) for nobody.

Its a good idea to say we arent allowed...duh i cant believe i didnt think to say it. Thanks :)

I knew going into this that there were going to be times i was asked certain questions etc but this was my first inquiry by someone so i wanted reassurement (i dont think thats a word).

I'm almost ready to give up on this site. My placement has dropped and I've been hovering around the second page for weeks now. Traffic has been okay but just in and out all day...not much chatting...it's hard to get anyone to put in $5 on a gold show. Just frustrating.

Yes I have a studio account and Heidi Hanson has a studio account. We are letting our friends sign up under us and we aren't taking any funds from them.



Just a heads up to other ladies, F4F automatically assigns your account to a studio. They don't make that clear during the sign up process.

Did you register as a studio Jane? That's one way to get around being part of another studio.

F4F was the first site I worked on & my studio manager turned out to be awful. He went crazy when I left to explore other sites. Harassing me via phone hundreds of times a day and he gave out my private details online. F4F didn't help me out initially. It was only when I brought it up on GFY that they said they'd speak to him. He left me alone after that. But he's still a studio manager.

It's also really hard to change studios if you have problems with your studio manager. I did end up registering my own studio. But I felt uncomfortable working there knowing he had access to my feed, including private shows.

That said, it is a great site. It has a community atmosphere between members and models.

Ok ladies, sorry if this was resolved before but...I have searched and read all the topics about SM encoder, upload speed, processors etc but there is so much different information I'm still a little confused. I use DSL connection and there is no other option for me in area I live, so the maximum upload speed I can get is 1 mbps(now I have slower package but will upgrade to this in next week or two, I already contacted provider. So at this point I can't know how it will be working with the encoder). BUT there is still a possibility I won't get even that as the lines in my town(from the central to my house) are old and probably damaged to some extent. I'm also considering on buying a laptop, because now I'm sharing computer with my mum. I'm still deciding between Acer I3 2,3 mhz processor and Acer I5 2,6 processor, both with 4 gb RAM. The second one is of course more expensive. And my question is, will better computer make any difference at all in my case? I've read some girls saying the encoder still lags completely the same with intel pentium or I7, if you have low upload speed. I don't need so fast processor for other purposes, I have Intel pentium now and until few weeks ago(when I made the research) I was convinced I have the best computer. And I'm on tight budget so if I would know the encoder won't work in any case I would definately buy cheaper one. Any experiences on this-slow upload and faster/slower computer, does it make any difference?

Take a break from it, and then try again in a little while.

I understand that you are frusterated as fuck right now. I had to jump through so many hoops when I signed up and even with all of SM's flaws, money-wise it has more than paid for the headache they originally caused me.

So give it a week, then try again. <3

How long does a wire transfer usually take to hit your bank? I hope that I can get this week's money a little faster than the 2-4 days it takes Payoneer to complete. Thanks in advance.

I usually get a notification from Payoneer on Friday and the fund is in my account by Tuesday.

Question, I have Daily Pay through SM now and I'm starting to think it's really not worth it with what I'm making to get fees taken out every day and I would probably be okay with being paid weekly by SM. I could honestly use the extra 5% back in my pay. Is Daily Pay like other studios where your pretty much stuck with them and can't sign up through SM solo again for a year? Anyone have any clue? I thought being paid daily would be an awesome thing but when I factor in how much I'm actually making minus all the fees its not that awesome to me anymore....

Well I bet there is not problem if you leave Daily Pay. I am planning to leave after I did the maths : Let's say I receive money from DP 5 days per week , so payonner fees =U$ 25 per week, if I work 40 weeks per year = U$ 1000 against just U$ 200 if I'd have been signed with Streamate plus 5 % more of my earnings. I know is nice to get your money next day but right now when things are getting slow every little helps!

Well after all that waiting SM didn't accept my application because of the studio I signed up with like almost a year ago even though I've never used it!!! I hate the fact that I had to work hard to get perfect pictures of the paper work from my webcam and doing all that uploading multiple times just to be denied. So I closed the studio and told SM that it was closed now and they said Sorry well you gotta wait 6 months so i have to fucking sign up all over again in 6 months and I really wanted to be on SM like NOW! WAAAH lol. I don' know any other good sites to try to work on now... Now I really have to depend on my clips stores that I just opened to make me some money I need to be able to move in the next three months and was hoping that SM would be a good site to help me reach my goals. Oh well back to brainstorming and waiting another 6 months to get on SM.

Well I bet there is not problem if you leave Daily Pay. I am planning to leave after I did the maths : Let's say I receive money from DP 5 days per week , so payonner fees =U$ 25 per week, if I work 40 weeks per year = U$ 1000 against just U$ 200 if I'd have been signed with Streamate plus 5 % more of my earnings. I know is nice to get your money next day but right now when things are getting slow every little helps!

Yea that's exactly why I want to leave lol. Paying a 5 dollar fee daily for Payoneer and then paying the 5 percent or what ever it is for DP for me its just not worth it for me right now. I still think DP is a GREAT service, just for my needs right now it's not working. Just wondering if SM will make me wait 6 months or what's the what with that since technically DP is a studio but I'm unsure?

Okay lol I know this is going to be SO contradictory to everything I just posted about wanting to leave Daily Pay BUT in your case I think you should probably join. You'll be able to work under them (since they are a studio and you can go from studio to studio with out waiting the 6 months) but they will take a 5 percent fee, BUT you'll be able to be paid daily. Still think DP is a great service and its probably your best option right now

We can send an email to Vanessa asking if we can rejoin straight away?

Question, I have Daily Pay through SM now and I'm starting to think it's really not worth it with what I'm making to get fees taken out every day and I would probably be okay with being paid weekly by SM. I could honestly use the extra 5% back in my pay. Is Daily Pay like other studios where your pretty much stuck with them and can't sign up through SM solo again for a year? Anyone have any clue? I thought being paid daily would be an awesome thing but when I factor in how much I'm actually making minus all the fees its not that awesome to me anymore....

We can send an email to Vanessa asking if we can rejoin straight away?

I was on Daily Pay on SM and decided to leave for the same reasons. The Payoneer fee's really do eat up your pay after a while. I told DP that I wanted to delete my account and it was deleted within a day maybe even in a couple of hours... I can't really remember. I signed back up to SM with a regular account. After submitting the documents I asked Vanessa if she could reinstate my old settings since I wasn't a new model. She told me to have DP send her an email stating that I was released from them. I had to remind him but once I did he sent the email within minutes. My account was approved with in 5-15mins after he sent the email. So no DP isn't like other studios, you won't have to wait a year to have a solo account. If asked just ask DP to email Vanessa stating that you were released.

I hate having to wait for my check but it feels so good to know that every cent on my earnings page is mine.

I have had connection issues today as well, got disconnected a few times and froze quite a few times, This has been going on and off for almost 2 weeks now. SM support was looking into it, they have now even taken my ip addy to try to sort it out.. I know my regulars told me today that they saw other girls freezing up as well, So I know it wasn't just me... I really hope they sort it out. I even took my geo block off hoping to get more traffic :(

Thank you so much I wanted to sign up with dailypay after SM denied me but I figured they would deny me too. So thanks again I am going to go sign up with them now.

What are the Payoneer fees on SM? I know on LJ it was $2 subtracted every time I had the funds directly transferred to my bank account.

Through Daily Pay Its $2 to get payment within 2 days...which kind of defeats the point of Daily Pay since most who sign up want their money ASAP lol and $5 for an instant load.

@Fallenangel2904 or anybody else who can answer this...... I see on dailypay they said if you already had a active SM account to close it but you can't reuse the same username with the account you close. I was wondering if I can still use the name I signed up with because technically my account was never really active (as in making money) I was going just going through the application process. My clip stores and other places that I am signing up with all have the same name so I would to keep SM the same too.

I was talking to another camgirl while I was camming, and we both were disconnected by SM at the same time. Coincidence? I don't think so!

I'm not sure :( I think you may have to use a different name though. I would email them through DP and ask, they've always been pretty fast at replying to emails and questions.

03-20-2013, 05:51 PM
Yeah I will just use a different name thats similar to the old one I guess and see if I can change it after I've been accepted.

I told them I would give the site another try. So I am logging on tomorrow and giving it a week. If I still have these issues I am leaving. I love the site but I need to make money. Loyalty doesn't pay my bills. I will see Shawn and Liz the first week of April. I will be sure to mention all the issues and see what I can find out.

Good luck this week! I hope you can get the connection issues sorted out. Have you tried tempting's suggestion about resetting your internet before each stream?

You didn't do anything wrong. SM will enable GS for you when you have met some of the qualifications. Like having good ratings, placement and putting in the hours.

What Fallen said. The $2/$5 is the card load fee. To have it transferred to your bank account I think its $3(don't quote me on that though).

If you contact Vanessa she can change the name. I wanted to use my Daily Pay username on my new SM account(mostly for branding purposes) so I asked her if she could change my name on my DP account. She changed it for me and then I deleted the account. I was able to use my old name on my new account.

Streamate is REALLY getting on my nerves. It takes them a fucking WEEK AND A HALF to let me know they need "a valid ID", because apparently, my NATIONAL FUCKING ID DOCUMENT, which is good enough for all other camsites, isn't good enough for them. And then, after uploading a different one (passport), takes them another FUCKIIIIING WEEK AND A HALF to tell me they "need clearer copy of Photo ID & Headshot".

You know, after reading this thread recently and seeing how many models are having issues with their software, how slow the paying traffic has been lately and some great models deciding to leave the site for good, I have a hard time understanding what's taking them SO FUCKING LONG to approve new models. Really; this is ridiculous.

I have tried e-mailing Vanessa and she never answered any of my e-mails. Haven't tried Liz yet, but, then again, if things are starting off this way, I can't even imagine the kind of stress I'll have to go through to even work. If any representatives from Streamate are reading this, here goes a message: it's NOT WORKING like this!

I give up.

Just in case you missed it. Vanessa just posted in her thread. She has been gone for the last week and just got back. :)
