30 days from your first stream.
Thanks! AT least after the NEW is gone I'll stop getting the STREAMATE police in my room needing to verify things lolol and the guys who want to explain to me "if you ever want to make money do this" etc etc... so annoying xoxo

I started on Streamate this week and I love it! Big issue - I got an email from support saying my routing number is incorrect. Only thing is it is NOT. I double checked all my banking info. I filled out my info for wire transfer the day before they offered ACH. I want to sign up for the direct deposit but it says it will take longer because my wire transfer isn't approved yet. I emailed them back but I'm assuming accounting or support isn't in on weekends? Have had a super rough week and just want to know I'll be getting my money in a reasonable time. I'm on daily pay with Chaturbate (through Boleyn) but after new model status, I make like $5 an hour over there! Not a fan of token sites after learning the Streamate hustle. Has anyone else dealt with this? How the f*** can I use the same routing number on 5 other sites with ZERO issue? Should I just go ahead and fill out ACH info anyway?

Some banks (bank of america does this, or at least used to) have a different number for wire transfers than they do for direct deposit. I'd call your bank and double check.

Oh! I will check that. I'm with Wells Fargo and called for their Swift code, which was new thing for me. I will look into that immediately. You have been so helpful here and on my post last week. Thank you !

I'm a bit confused about when Payments are sent to Skrill. My last one was sent the following Friday. Should I typically expect that's when they are sent or is it different? Thanks in advance!

Recently started SM and am using SM broadcast BUT my bitrate is trash. Everything else is good and green, but my bitrate rarely goes yellow - mainly red. I did a speedtest and my side looks good (DL - 50's UL 10's)... how can i fix this? ESPECIALLY this week LOL

She cannot afford to do all the things we associate with Christmas time like buy gifts, decorate, travel to see family, prepare Christmas dinner for family etc. Im not sure exactly which part she cant afford but it could be some or all of those things. :)

Thank you, yes i get it Christmas is a big commercial thing in northen America and from what i see in the movies u really need to keep up with the others regarding all of the things u mentioned.
Here in eastern europe we care about the real meaning of this holiday and much less about spending on such things as gifts and decorations and dinner at a certain standard. Everyone does what it can but for sure is not the madness i see in american movies. ty for explaining xx
^^^ Still they labeled as Excellent hmmm, cant help to fix that bitrate but maybe it's lower cause the resolution is at the maximum which affects the bitrate and rtt too, 60 is kinda high, my bit rate is 2.4 and rtt under 40 with same resolution like urs. If u could change the resolution ur camera streams with? Not sure what camera u have and what available settings but lowering resolution could improve bit rate and rtt, right now ur connection cant take that much data transfer.

gals, I'm MORTIFIED. I think I streamed most of a cumshow in free chat.
I've been on SM for 6 years and never done one goldshow. Just for the fear that just this happened!!!!!!! I don't know what I did wrong. I tried yesterday, got no takers, tried another one today for 75% the original goal. I made goal fast, then a counter appeared on top of the screen saying something like you met your goal 45 secs to show.... so I just waited for it to go 0 and then I started the show in earnest.... but there was no counter... and so many guys talking to me, I just went on with the show.... not seeing a counter made me nervous, then I realized I'm in free chat.... what did I do wrong? should I have clicked on something and didn't???? I'm so embarassed I don't know if I can get back on today.

Send support a message and also message Liz.
Years ago I goofed and got naked before the show started. I had mistaken the sound of the goal being reached for the sound the show started.
I emailed Liz and told her what happened.

My account was closed over the weekend and they reopened it today but I'm not showing up online. Does anyone know if I just need to stream for just a little bit to get back in the system or something like that? Thanks in advance for any help! I should clarify that I can stream but there's literally zero people in my room and I'm not showing up on the site.

It could be a glitch. Some of us having it show offline when we were online streaming.
Have you checked your placement and can you see if you click on your room if it shows that you are actually streaming?
I contacted support when this happened to me. I got a response that they were aware that this issue was happening and they were looking into it further. Still waiting on further information.
When it happened to me- I just posted on Twitter that I was actually online even though I was showing offline. Then just rode it out and waited for it to resolve itself which eventually it did.
I did try logging out and logging back in which at the time didn't do anything- but it's a worth a shot.
Alternatively- could try switching broadcasting method-

ok, maybe it's a glitch, so my question is, does the GS start automatically? or do I have to start it manually?
Because my fear is that I had to DO something and I didn't, so the countdown ended and I started getting naked without going to a private space, still in guest chat.
I'll try it out today and I don't wanna fuck it up. Need the $$$$. I work without computer sounds (hate the beep when people come in), but maybe forr GS I'll turn it on just until I get a handle of it. I really wanna make it work but again, terrified to mess it up and show my goods for free again. I hope at least some of those losers faved me.:banghead:

You have to press start. If you are on the SMC, there is going to be a timer up, close to the bar where you have the options for phone and gold menu. If you reach or don't reach the Goal, you'll have 90 seconds to start the show after your time goes up. So let's say you put 10 minutes to raise your total. If you reach your goal before that, you'll have 1:30 min to start it (is going to show on red). If you don't reach and your 10 run out, you'll still have 1:30 min to decide what to do.
If you take no action, your show will cancel. Only shows that started automatically were the Tv ones/Top spot, but they no longer exist.
Once you press start, you'll be moved into paid chat and it's going to count down the time for your set show.

I may have to play with camera output - I"m using a DSLR so my output is ungodly good and I have it set to push 1080p through Sparkocam (need it to read camera).... IDK... It's set a 30 fps too, so at this point IDK. It's a great camera but this thing has been an absolute nightmare to deal with - should have just got a new Logitech c920 HAHA

I hear what you are saying Kat and TY for being concerned/asking for clarification.
I cannot do anything this year - no gifts for my kid and he's working too so I won't see him, no family close by (grandma died last year and family drama no thanks), marriage in shambles, cannot afford to eat barely, the IRS is taking all of my money and I just had to pay a plumber $400 to fix a water leak, so yeah..... I'm basically going to sit here by myself with nothing good happening so why not cam.....

I am sorry for the tough situation u going thru, just know that u dont have to do anything u cant do and being on ur own is simply enough, YOU are enough, being alive and healthy is all u need, the rest is extra.
Happy camming and all the best, things will sort out for u and some good income over christmas will help u financially.
Take care, good luck and Merry Christmas!
I here celebrate the birth of baby Jesus and that's it, not doing anything extra, just have a little more than regular dinner and that's it, no gifts needed. We live a simple life.

Not everyone here is driven by what you've already assumed. There are plenty of folks from all over the world here who get into the holiday spirit. We love and honor our families with festivities: feast, worship..and yes sometimes we do shop until we drop. But it's not any less real than anywhere else. It's incredibly diverse here and often times what's depicted isn't always what's really going on. We do tend to go all out with celebrations but it's driven by love and togetherness.

Thank you for clarifications, i mentioned i see how things happen from the american movies i watch, never been there.
Of course is a cultural and economical difference between USA and my place for example, we have different levels of wealthiness, most people here are modest financially, only a few afford to decorate their houses/ homes and party/feast.
That's why 'cant afford doing Christmas' was puzzling me. Ty again xx

How has streamate fared for you in the past over Christmas? I plan on working Dec 24-26 all day, and am not sure what to expect.
I'm not planning to work it this year but it has been complete crap when I've tried before. Nothing but horrid cheap trolls who have no family or friends to visit and are bitter and take it out on me.

Guess she means the previous years were better but every year is getting harder than the years before, this year is very difficult for some of us on SM.

I had the same experience, swore I'd never work another Christmas, and this week has been super bad for me. 30% bonus seems to be 30% of almost no money so far lol.
I do see some saying they are banking hard on Christmas so I'm going to try it once again since I have no family in town this year. Hope it's good this time, going to try to ban all the trolls and ignore the idiots and focus on getting a few whales.

Judging by this week, nope, I won't work on Christmas. I did, previously, when things were good and when the week before Christmas was one of the best of the year. 2017 week before Christmas and Christmas I was living online, would take a nap and get back on because I was banking, everyone was tipping big and buying shows. This week I can be online forever without a show or a tip.
