The sad thing is that the providers charging so little have probably got no choice over their rates. Its the studios/pimps that pushing the rates down. Some of these EE ladies are stunning they know they're worth much more than .60 a min but, their English might be limited so they're at the mercy of the studio's who can read & write properly in English.

At this moment in cam it looks pretty quite & there's no-one who is busy charging over 2.99 private. They're not all Brits either.

Not sure why you're so angry.. I've always thought the EE girls are in a totally different market than the British girls. I don't know any customers who go for the 2.99 private British girl as well as the 0.80 EE girl. I feel that guys want either one or the other. So I don't even notice them, they do their thing and I do mine.

Clearly it bothers you an awful lot, as you've taken the time to come and rant about it?

Maybe AW will one day increase the minimum everyone can charge. A lot of these EE providers are being exploited in studios and they've probably got no idea they're even streaming on AW. They won't have control of their profiles or prices in a studio I wouldn't of thought. Maybe, that's what's happening - Adult Work are clamping down on all the studios because there does seem to be an awful lot of them.

I think there is a minimum Kristen, I tried it one time and I don't think you can go below 60p or it may have been 50p. I wasn't going to charge that but wanted to see.

Rates are not the only reason a person is busy or quiet, there are lots of things that can be changed if you need to improve business, prices only being one of those things. Thankfully guys enjoy a wank over women of all ages, sizes and ethnicities :D

My post was really in defence of EE providers who are being exploited by studios & then get slagged off on here because they appear to be charging very little when in reality many of them probably have no say over what they charge because they're being pimped/ponced off.

The min is 0.60 and I don't believe that many providers would choose to charge so little & I hope one day AW will increase this minimum or even get rid of the studios all together.

I don't have any problem with what anybody else chooses to charge as long as it their choice. I don't have problem with different ethnicity either but I do think that these studios are not doing anybody any favours except for themselves.

Agree totally. To criticise anybody who is not in control of what they do is disgusting and agree that a minimum higher than now would be a good idea.

Just wanting to get some other adultwork girls opinions on this situation...

I'm wanting to do girl/girl show with another fully verified AW girl who is part of an adultwork group. I'm not part of this group nor do I have any intention to be. If I was to set up a girl/girl profile for us, which would not be part of the group she belongs to or any other group for that matter, would she be allowed to work from it with me? Would I get in any trouble at all?

We're both long time Adultwork verified performers.

Any insight would be great as I've never been a part of a group I don't really understand how they work!!

I'm not sure you can be part of a group and have a separate profile as a duo? im sure many groups don't allow this?

I would ask Adultwork or check the help pages on setting up a couples account.

In my view it should be possible because it is the profile that belongs to the group, not the person...a couples profile will be a separate account.

I had a custom request yesterday on AW - a very detailed one and we agreed a price but as AW have stopped me listing customs in my store I am having to take payment as a Skype booking. So he paid (which was a surprise) and accepted the the booking. The booking cleared last night from Escrow the I see a manual escrow deducting the same amount today! Any ideas? I guess he cancelled it but Ive not had any notification. I always thought once the escrow had cleared it was a done deal!

ETA: the guy is still on the site so guessing its not fraud

ETA: they wanted him to confirm his address for verification. I got through to them on their live help and they were helpful. I got the money released back to me and he messaged apologising saing it should all be fine now.

What pisses me off is the ladies who put themselves in the wrong age category on cam, presumably to stand out more. Then you look at their profile and they are not in that age group at all. I know age is only whatever you put down but mine is correct and so is the category I put myself in for cam. Play fair ladies please.

digital economy bill - any site will have to have any explicit content hidden behind an age verification wall - technically AW already does have this rule but I dont know how enforced it is. I've contacted the sites I work about this and honestly the replies haven't been great, it seems like hardly any site is aware of it. If a site isn't compliant it'll be blocked by ISPs - I'm concerned about it tbh as other than AW most sites allow explicit content to be seen before age verification happens.

Ugh, I have to agree, it was utterly dead earlier! Positioning has gone up hugely too. This afternoon I did 3.6 creds and it went orange, didn't even go green for that much (in the daytime too!).. I remember when you could get number 1 slot for 2.5 creds in the daytime easily haha. Oh good times.. And when you could guarantee 30 creds an hour minimum even in the mornings. Sorry, I'm ranting now :-D x

I just seen that on AW forum. A few months back my pin wasn't showing on my profile either. I don't know what's going on with Adult work but I really wish they would roll the site back to last summer before they worked on the mobile site. Why mess with something that was working well - I don't know. I also get guys in IM thinking its Cam. Its quite amusing seeing how long it takes them to work out there is no cam - like when you test your dogs intelligence by throwing a blanket over it's head & seeing how long it takes it to work out what its got to do to be able to see again. Some of these guys can be in a minute before they work it out & what gets me is they don't even say hello most of the time or even ask why they can't see you - If they wasn't so pig ignorant they'd save a few pennies ;)

So I applied for a Paxum business account last night. This morning I woke up to an apologetic message from Paxum, saying they've consulted their legal team and since I'm permanently living in the UK and outside of the US, they're happy to keep my personal account open. Ten minutes later, I got another email saying my business account application had been approved, so now I have both a personal and business Paxum account. I swear you can't make this shit up, haha! Result!! :D

Sorry I know this is an AW thread but sometimes they all get interlinked.. Blue Velvet I notice you often mention Paxum and seem well clued up on it.. so hope you don't mind me pointing this query at you (or indeed anyone of course who has had the experience I've had.. below)..... there are 2 things and they are somewhat interlinked.

Basically… I haven’t been online much due to illness lately…. Also signed up with TTM last year but due to sickness I only hit the $50 dollar (min) payout fee recently.

I am in the UK and when I signed up with TTM, in my settings I selected Paxum as the payout option (have not used them/Paxum before but set up the account ages ago, around the time of the payment processor fiasco) – then yesterday… I went to log into my Paxum account to see (check) if it was still active (as I hadn’t logged in for ages).

And it came up with a page that listed a lot of different things (tick boxes to agree to) and one of them was this:

“All accounts that have no transactions for more than 180 days will be charged $5.00 USD per month dormant account fee.”

Has anyone else noticed/seen this?

I haven’t used it as I said above to illness and… I’m not sure when I can work exactly so I am worried if I don’t use it say for 5 or 6 months (the 180 day dormant period) I then have to pay a backdated fee of $5.00 per month?? -- so if I do put in any wages it eats them up!!

I have to the tick the box to say I agree with this but am scared to do so in case I don’t use it and then I start incurring dormant fees... (so I cant now actually access my account, unless I tick that box).

Also I noticed on here others said that Paxum had FirstChoicePay as an option but now they don’t and if its only Paxum (for UK folk) then I feel I can’t really use them as if I don’t work/use the account for 180 days or more I’ll get charged backdated fees. So my money/earnings are stuck in TTM!

And to cap it all, I logged onto TTM, hit the min target and where I had previously selected Paxum as a payment option last year it is now greyed out and asking me to contact them. Maybe they just want to check because I left it so long or maybe I need to do 300 minutes or more that has been mentioned above…. Either way I feel nervous using Paxum in case I get sick again and cant work for that time or maybe I’m being silly/nervous/over cautious…

I just want to know did anyone else see this (on Paxum):

“All accounts that have no transactions for more than 180 days will be charged $5.00 USD per month dormant account fee.”

And agree to it?

p.s.

I have emailed TTM via their site where our account details are held...and where I have inputted Paxum is greyed out (disabled) and they invited me to contact them, with an email box, which I did..... so am waiting to hear from them. I dont want to wait for checks/cheques from there either, what with all the kerfuffle re conversion charges etc. Its all so confusing not to mention annoying. Every time you feel you get straight/set things up, along comes comes other (unexpected) hurdle. If its not one thing, its another.

It's the exact same for me. Usually I do free and average get a show ever 10 or 15 minutes, 4 or 5 an hour. But today, had an entire hour with nothing! Thankfully 20 credits away from my target now (finally) but half of that was only because a good paying reg came in. Sigh.. Also seem to have a large number of cam bookings lately where they send a request, I accept and then they never confirm. So infuritating x

Paxum made those changes about a months ago but I wouldn't worry about it 180 days is a long time and your bound to make several payouts on TTM in that time even id you can't work much.

They have also stopped EFT in GBP - Its Euro only now for us in the UK. So, you need to add your international banking details so they can still pay you & they recommended just double check with your UK bank about charges for receiving EURO. My bank doesn't charge. Its a pain but its still better than getting a check from TTM x

I don't think they'd backdate the $5 fee if you were dormant for 180 days. I think that after 180 days, they'd start charging you $5 per month after that. That's how I understand it at least. I use Paxum for TTM and get paid into Paxum usually once a week or once a fortnight if I've been busy and didn't hit the $50 minimum. Unless I became ill or something, I wouldn't hit 180 days of inactivity. If I stopped using TTM altogether, I would just withdraw everything from my Paxum account and close the account. I assume I could reopen another at some point if I needed to.

If you're planning on using TTM more regularly now, I wouldn't worry too much about the 180 days of inactivity. If you don't think TTM is going to be an egg you'll use, then I'd empty and close the Paxum account. Sounds like you're wanting to pick TTM back up now, so I'd just stick with it, assuming you could log in enough to generate $50 payout within 180 days.
