Ugh, small rant. I gave AW everything they needed and they still have yet to approve me. I know, sometimes it takes days, sometimes weeks for people but damn son. It made no sense how quick they were to hurry up and ask for my Passport, etc and when I uploaded the wrong thing, they rejected it and messaged me in like 4 min. Then, once I give them all my shit, like, a whole day goes by lol. I'm probably in line... ugh ;)

Alright...I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!! If reps for AW are reading this you have gotta do something about Direct Chat. Not only do we pay extra fees for the privilege, but we can't even have a system that works??? I went through my DChat log and in the past week alone out of 27 attempted calls only 7 connected. 7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you realize how much money that is costing me??????????? I answered all of those and got a disconnect in my ear.

And sometimes if I luck out I can convince some poor horny guy to please try again or walk him through making a phone booking. AW reps...have you ever tried to walk a guy whos blood has all gone to his dick through the ABC's of booking a call??? It's a bitch. It wastes my time, and makes me look flakey when I have to send apology emails almost every time my phone rings. I'm over it. Why don't they fix this??? If I am only getting 1/4 of my calls connected then overall how much money are they losing? Is this only me ladies???

BlondebombGA
12-15-2012, 01:12 AM
And perfect timing from my last post. For some reason this guy can't figure out how to call my booking number, doesn't do Skype and I've spent the last half an hour back and forth on this BS. We have already confirmed, so how do I make sure he gets his money back from Escrow? There is nothing I can find except a form for if I didn't show. Unf*ckingbelievable. Unf*ckingbelievable!!!!!

Why can't he figure out how to phone you? If it's booked and confirmed then it will show up in his booking details, assuming you are providing it. If it's booked and confirmed (ie You have the money) can you not just tell him the number to phone? Am I missing something here..? :-p

It's on my phone booking (after confirmation), and I know it works because someone else used it a bit earlier. He claimed it said it was unavailable or something. It's a local London number, so how should I know how to call it? You just call it like any other number in London man! I gave him the number again, offered Skype instead, and he just kept repeating, "Why can't you just call me?". Telling him my long distance isn't set up like that somehow didn't seem to sink in.

Thanks Katy. I just didn't know if I needed to report it or I would get penalized somehow. I have 100 emails if they want proof that I tried. Lol.

Thanks V...Glad to know I am not alone in the Direct Chat f*ckery.

Sorry for shouting ladies. Just when the 8th non-connected call came through today, I started to see red. I hate losing easy money, and I really like the phone sex part of this job. ;)

Have to say I wouldn't refund, I mean if its all confirmed etc and the credits are with you then the fault is his. I know there are issues with direct chat but when someone books a call AW call his phone at the alloted time then connects to your number. Now if AW didn't call his number then he should take it up with them, if however as I suspect from what you've said, he didn't answer his phone when they rang, maybe he changed his mind or maybe he was disturbed by another incoming call/knock at the door/wife coming home unexpected. Any of those reasons are not your fault. If you feel you really want to refund him here's the form to use http://www.adultwork.com/dlgKBArticle.asp?TargetURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eadul twork%2Ecom%2FdlgFAQsNew%2Easp%3FSectionID%3D350%2 6PreviousSectionIDs%3D0%252C300&ArticleID=72

I don't offer booked phone chat, even though I know directchat is dodgy at times...I've seen how much hassle is caused by the booked chat system and guys trying to pull a fast one, more so than with booked webcam sessions. I also don't see why they should get to view a movie for free either.

As you know sterlin is higher than dolars and it is way higher than turkish liras which I use :)
SO, do you take into account this fact when charging? For example if you are charging people 2.99 dolars in other sites, do you charge the same amount in AW too, even if its in sterlin?
By the way, i loved AW because I am making really good money. BUT not because I earn soo much, only because 1 sterlin is 2.90 turkish liras :D Basicaly, in every credit I make I earn 3 times more than any Britsh girl lol :P (cause what 1 sterlin means in England is the same as what 1 lira means in turkey).

Hmmm, never saw it that way Missy. He wasted a good chunk of my time last night. Thanks for that info too btw. And I had no idea AW called them when they booked. Good to know! I will say, he was the 2nd person last night to ask what the number was after confirming, so perhaps something was up with AW.

@Katy...any scams off the top of your head I should be aware of?

With a booking, AW doesn't phone them. You either phone them, or they phone you. Mmm...
Like a Skype booking, AW doesn't get involved with the phone bookings.
It's between you and them.

Anyway, I wouldn't have refunded him either, especially after wasting so much of your time.

I keep forgetting about that rule on there. Sometimes I keep Windows Media Play opened and paused on a song (R&B or Hip-Hop) so that when a guy enters a private show, I can click Play and have some music to get naked to, etc. LOL.

Still waiting to be approved...even sent in my birth certificate and when I emailed them asking about the wait for approval...they sent me another email asking for the same stuff. Seriously?

All I know is that, in the past, I've uploaded video clips to AW that had music in them, and AW removed them for that reason. So I think I have TWO versions of a booty-clapping video. Version 1: WITH Justin Timberlake "Sexyback" playing. Version 2: WITHOUT "Sexyback" playing (that one went up on AW). LOL.

Hopefully if I just play some music turned down in the background during camming it won't be an issue. I don't intend to upload my clips to AW but I just find it so awkward with no background noise.

The section of the Terms regarding directcam:

DirectCam is for the provision of live interactive (text, audio & video) adult themed services, broadcast from a webcam and/or microphone via the DirectCam Platform to visitors to the Site. Any member found to be abusing this basic usage definition by way of spamming, advertising other websites or services, posting off topic messages or banners, or using images to misrepresent their status or offering will most likely be deactivated. Members are reminded that AdultWork.com is a club where members are expected to operate openly and honestly. For the avoidance of doubt the following is not permitted via JustCamIt/DirectCam:

use still images in DirectCam

use pre-recorded video in DirectCam

have more than one profile per person

share the same video feed across more than one JustCamIt login

pretend to offer services (such as Escorting) that you don't.

pretend to be in a different country than you actually are

pretend to be of a different orientation or sexual preference (e.g. TV/TS than you actually are) either in your summary or nickname

appear as available for free preview, whilst camming nude on another site or not. (You must exit JCI if you cannot provide free non-nude cam sessions or untick the free setting here.)

- Nothing about music there.

The music part is to do with movies:

Musical tracks must not be used on movies unless you are the author or publisher of said track.

I don't play music in paid chat, as I feel that what I like may not be the same as what others like, however when I do use Freeview and have audio on, I NEED music to cope! :-D

I know one high profile girl plays music in paid sessions to lessen the chances of being recorded.

It's interesting about the still image...we have the ability for a picture to show at the end of each grp/pvt session so we don't have to run to hit the log off button whenever a session ends, so we're not suddenly thrown back into free preview (which I did for my first year until I was told about this feature!).

Also interesting that we don't have to show ourselves in free preview. I have had days when I just pointed the cam at the ceiling light or at my toys...worked well at first!

I was told they also accept birth certificates. I mean, if all they need is a passport, that should be the only thing on their list. My passport happens to be lost and I'm not in the position to contact the agency and order a new one. I'm gonna keep trying to get accepted.

My issue isn't that my items are getting rejected. They haven't rejected, they just asked for further proof and haven't given me an answer yet after I've sent it in.

If you aren't a UK citizen, in the UK, they are super strict. I got suspended once purely because they were doing a mass validation for Romanian girls and American girls, and I had to resend all my things... yet again. Hmmmm, birth certs seem like a form that could easily be manipulated, and it doesn't come with a pic so I would double check that that alone is acceptable. You really need to invest in a passport if you wanna work on AW, because even if you are in now, they will one day shut you out until you send a passport in.

True, a lot of things can be forged. I mean, it would still be hard to connect the dots with a pic on a birth certificate considering I was a new born and am now am well into my 20s lol. I do have government forms of ID but I choose to keep them to myself for fear of potential black mail. I shouldn't worry about it, but sometimes I do. Passports can be forged and manipulated as well using photoshop and all other types of software. (you've seen the movies) My issue is this, if they only accept passports from US girls, why not just say so? Instead, they give you a list of things they do accept, and then...don't? Makes no sense. How many "fake" IDs of myself can I have lol. Even people who steal identities usually don't have 5+ forms of IDs of the person. They need to approve me as I am, I'm not sending for my passport and waiting another 3 months just to re-apply and wait again. It's ridiculous to even think that everyone in the US even has a passport. Some people haven't even left the country and have no desire to travel. Also, my passport picture was taken when I was 16 and is so dark and fucked up, you can't even tell it's me.

I read the thread and it was said that after a certain date, they ask for more from USA girls. (passports/birth certificates) I can understand if that is what they are asking for. But it's quite frustrating when they give you a list.

This was emailed to me.

Hello

Thank you for your email.

Thank you for submitting your ID documents but we require further ID to
confirm your identity.

Depending on what you already supplied, we now also require another piece
of government issued ID such as:

- driving licence (already sent)
- ID card (already sent)
- proof of age card (already sent)
- passport
- birth certificate (already sent)

Please submit one of these (which you have not already supplied) via this
page:

http://www.adultwork.com/AdvisorVerification.asp


Like, ummm why not just ask for my passport lol. They didn't reject anything until I bugged them about it. Maybe I should've shut up but it's annoying to wait 5+ days with no response.

Yes, they'd have to pay international charges so I expect directchat would be cheaper for them! Just tell them you don't have a mobile number for them to call you on (can say you're in the States), and they have to use directchat instead.

Would they still have to pay international fees if i was using a google voice number?
