Anyone know how to contact someone at adultwork? I received an email saying my funds have been transferred to payoneer but I do not have payoneer. I was also taken out of daily pay which I did not request either. Here's the email:
The Credits Transfer Request Form(s) that you completed on the following date(s) have now been processed and paid into the requested Payoneer Account.
10/03/2016 22:36:03 16.44 Credits
To minimise the fees incurred, multiple requests for payments to the same Payoneer account will have been grouped together into one payment, regardless of whether the request was from the same AdultWork.com member or not.
Please DO NOT REPLY to this email as it will not be read.
Regards
The AdultWork.com Team
Has anyone else received an email like this? How do I contact aw to let them know what is going on?
When did you leave the group? This is most likely a pending transfer to the group from before you left.

What's the e-mail for AdultWork? I know it's probably somewhere in this thread, but I need it super quick! I joined up yesterday, got verified, filled in my details and set all my rates for camming and I was hoping to jump on tonight and stream right away. BUT I just logged on and it's like they've removed my right to cam? It says that I don't have direct chat configured and when I try to update my rates, it saves and then doesn't show? Is this a technical issue with the website or are they stopping me from streaming for whatever reason? I'm still shown as a verified member so I'm getting a bit frustrated.

I did a proper cam show for the first time the other evening while a bit tipsy, had only been doing IM before that as I was really nervous about it, but it was pretty fun! think once I'm home from seeing my family I'm gonna give it another go, are there any times that are particularly good on AW or is it pretty random?

[email protected] but they may not answer as they prefer you to use the help centre. Read this http://bit.ly/1oGgNrT then click close at the bottom right and it will open up a contact form. Sometimes they delay new accounts due to the possibility of fraud or fakes. Pop them a message and they should sort it for you.

As with any site the best time is the best time FOR YOU! Go on when it is convenient then try to establish a consistent schedule. There are always horny guys logged in and they will find you.

He would have received it straight after you sent it, but probably not actually opened it until later. Why was your cam lagging? What's your upload speed? Try shutting down anything that may be interfering with your bandwith, extra programs running in the background, youtube, streaming music etc.

thanks lovey :) I mean I was on at 3.45 AM UK time and had a couple of guys interested, it was very improv to so I dont think I necessarily looked as good as I could, consistency isn't something I'd thought about actually but it would help me with working my studies and spending time with the other half in properly to!

Hi girls,
Obviously on AW you got your free, privates, and groups sessions, but how does someone accept a private as all i can see is the group session when they click on the link. Also, what are your recommendations in doing while in group or in private because guys come in my group session then leave almost straight away (sometimes). Guys request to see me naked within the first 5mins so those that pop in for a few seconds see me naked then leave. Also im new to the site and would really appreciate your feedback. I just dont know whether to tease longer in group then strip or do things different from what I'd do in group compared to private?
thank you so much.

When you get a paid session request it will state whether it is group or private. I cam during the daytime and there seems to be a difference in customers between then and the evening/night...I show some nudity after the first minute. You need to make some difference between group and private...I don't take requests in group, it is my show and I don't exclude other paying customers by giving preferential treatment to one of them. Cam to cam and phone chat, role plays and fetish is private only.

Pretty much as Katy said above. Generally I only chat to them in group, maybe a little tease if they start to get antsy. But I rarely have more than 1 guy in group at a time so after 5 mins if he's still in group I'll say "shall we go private now and get a little more aquainted?". Then I'll ask what they're into, anything in particular, and go from there.

I'm curious what the adultwork.com tv is. It looks like set shows that run for a certain amount of time but can anyone do that? How would you even set something like that up? I looked under "help" to see what it was about but nothing came up.

Not old, this thread is used daily! DirectIM isnt a huge money maker unless you're also a cammer and/ or phone provider. It'll usually be your regs from these other services that pop by IM whrn you're otherwise unavailable. As you gain more feedback and exposure on the site you'll then pick up some pure IM custies. But yeah don't expect to become rich, it's not as popular as cam and phone x

Hi and welcome :) DirectIm is slow but some guys will chat for quite a while...so you want to be online as much as possible. I have had DirectIM customers who only use instant message or phone chat. Being able to type fast helps. Adultwork is heavily fetish so you'll find most guys want to talk about something other than regular sex. It's a good place to start...add some photos to your free and private galleries, and make some movies too...they can be very short.

Oh thnx so much for getting back to me, i was getting crazy about putting so many hrs on it and sometimes not having eve one paying member! Ive seen that the girls who make more money, are the ones with a lot of reviews, the ones like me, new, are making preety much the same as i do. I offer phoe during the week, but i can cam only when my baby is asleep as he stays with me all day. I dont do nude shows, my game is the domme thing, in which i do ok, just cant cam a lot, so i thought i was goig to use IM to make at least few bucks. Can u suggest me if i should continue on free chat or if i would do better staying out of it?
thnx for ur response.

Thnx for ur post and thanx for the welcoming; I used to work on aw many years ago, i started to cam in 2001 and stopped in 2009. After 6 yrs away, i need the money as i have a lil baby from my third marriage...lol
I cant cam regularly coz i stay with my bb all day long, so i only cam when hes asleep, but i thought i could do IM to make a few bucks every now and then.
I know its not like cam and phone, and i dont intend to get rich of this, but i already made few bucks and it helps. Just wanted to know why some girls have their chats busy all the time and me, most of the time, nothing. it gets frustrating. If u allow me to put my link in here, maybe could take a look nd see if i could improve anything? Anyway so many thanks for both taking the time to help a fellow camgirl.

Youll get busier through advertising yourself and being available as much as possible. There's no point to free chat with IM as it doesnt help. Every time you have a phone call with someone or leave them feedback, ask them to visit you in IM some time, and always ask for them to leave feedback x

I'm new to AW and have mainly been doing IM only, I think having a lot of pictures helps, cheap rates (as it is IM only) and basically just homing in very much on what they want. It's not gonna be a huge money maker, often I dont make much on it at all, but the other night one guy roleplayed with me on there for two hours. Definitely aim for regulars to, I find it's the same guys on IM constantly - not sure if this generalises to but most guys who come into my chat do and mention my collar/ask if I'm a sub, so heavily play up the angle/service your going for :)
also, personally I have free chat on but only for 5 mins - I'd say 50% of the time guys I get join straight onto private or group, and the other 50% they want to talk for free about what they want to roleplay first, free chat works for me but like I say, I'm new ahaha

Thx for the input, I am doing everything im being told and at some point things will improve. I have had some good guys, but its not steady. Sometimes i cant see a paying guy for like 3 days in a row. I thought maybe it was because im new, but not sure. Even in free is ridiculously slow for me. But i will stick there.

ultimately it is slow, most guys aren't willing to pay to just IM chat, there are a lot of free sites for that etc. definitely build up your profile with pictures, maybe some videos etc, how many hours a day do you stay on it? sometimes I think it's just getting lucky with a guy coming in who then comes in regularly, on average I dont make more than maybe £20 a day on IM, just occasionally I'll have guys who want regular 30-60 min sessions - I'd suggest thinking of IM as a supplement to everything else, not the main source of income
Classy_Katy
04-10-2016, 02:05 AM
I offer free for 5 mins within 24 hours when I do DirectIM...the main reason for this is because my profile picture will appear on the front page in rotation with the others who offer free, and it's extra publicity for selling movies, pics etc, as well as instant message chat and also future cam sessions. You will get freeloaders coming in to chat but I don't go out of my way to encourage them into paid...the ones who want to pay, will come into paid and you get a feel for who is who. I rarely have cam customers coming into DirectIM...if anything, I have DirectIM customers venturing into cam. That might be because I cam during the daytime and do IM in the evenings and weekends.

Yeah, Im not pretending to make a huge amount of money at all on IM, like i said, i have a lil baby at home, which makes impossible for me to cam when he's awake. My only time to cam, is a window of 2 hs after he sleeps and before my hubby gets home from work, that would be between 7pm to 9pm - GMT-3 Brasil
Other than that what i do offer is phone, which is relatevely easy even with the baby awake. Thank god yesterday i got a big big session, of over 1h30 and i cut shorter coz the baby woke up with that stomach flu which is getting everyone lately, so i had to ask the client to leave....lol
So at least my day wasnt all lost.

Does anyone sell clips on AW. I've added some and I know it has a minimum price but where I think the minimum price for mb should be a couple of credits plus what I add AW has put it at 10 x so it's really expensive. Tried changing it but it changes back. Confused me some

Minimum price is set by size...I make my movies email size for Adultwork, which is 320x180. I also use WMV and MP4 gets corrupted. It's a different kind of market on there...you can get a full lenght, high quality rental for 3 credits (plus VAT), so traditionally movies tended to be under 3 credits...short and not amazing quality. A 2 minute movie at 320x180 fits into that under 3 credit bracket nicely. Guys on AW buying movies are mostly looking for quick wank material.
I do have clips longer than 2 minutes and some cost over 10 credits and still sell, but since the addition of VAT last October, some of us have noticed a big decrease in sales.

You're not meant to use the same content on solo and couple accounts...also, if you solo cam from a couple account, customers going straight into paid will be expecting to see a couple.

hmm yeah I'll talk to him, he knows what it's like though, I think he likes the idea of being in my videos more than actually in person camming, also, we did actually do it once before last week (I was a bit tipsy and didn't think about the fact we might need to upload his id etc) and I swear I could change to couple? but maybe not - maybe thats why a few people where surprised at the guy in shot in free chat ahaha
I'll talk to him and see if it's something he actually wants to do, if it's just something thats a bit of kinky fun then it's probably too much effort for him

Damn. They deleted my profile, all my content and all my reviews and say I can't have my name back (which I use everywhere) because I didn't supply a passport. All my reviews gone (and they were ALL good ones).
I liked the justcamit software and all but fucking hell they were so rude to me in their emails too I may not bother redoing my profile there with a new name even if I do get a passport done.
So all this time I made money for them they think I had a fake license? lmao its ridiculous to me. You can check the number with ANY background service to validate it.

I know this is small consolation, but your name WILL become free again after X amount of time. It will be a case of keeping trying/checking, if you do decide to get a passport etc.
