Forgive me girls for the many questions to come. I am just starting the registeration for Adultwork, and am already confused!

I am on a page that asksDo you want to use your own Yahoo/MSN Messenger IDs with webcam sessions? If so, specify the email addresses you want to make available. Otherwise, the seeking services member will be required to provide you with details to use for the session. But, I do not want to use my own yahoo or msn messenger ID. However its not allowing me to leave the section blank.

If you are going to be doing Skype shows then you will need to fill it in. If you choose not to do Skype shows, then even if you fill it in with whatever email/skype or yahoo ID, nobody will ever see it. They have to book, you accept and them confirm before they get your details for a booking.

Thanks Vlodina!

I have,...I think I have, completed all my details, but not my verification photos. When does my new model status start and end. Just to know when I should take advantate of the new status

Also, its asking me to enter my mobile number. Do I have to enter that? If so, for what purpose

If you mean here about a phone number http://www.adultwork.com/EditProfile.asp ... it's to do with cam/phone bookings (not directcam/chat), see here http://www.adultwork.com/MobileActivation.asp - means you can have texts sent when you receive a booking etc.
There is no 'new girl' status, merely that guys will not have seen you before and you will have zero ratings.

There are 2 ways it need to be enabled, on justcamit in the audio settings and in the directcam settings.

It's been a while since i verified but I don't think you need to be verified in order to cam....I could be wrong.

Don't worry about asking loads of questions. I find AW to be confusing at the best of times. The answers are all on the helpdesk, you just need to sift through them. If that fails, we're all here.

Hi, can you tell me, if i list a number under - direct chat and pre booked chat in my profile settings, whether the client can see my personal mobile number. I would like to offer phone chat, but do not want the customer to see my mobile number

Vlodina
02-03-2013, 09:00 AM
For prebooked you have the choice of phoning them or them phoning you. If you list a number for booked chat, they will be told to phone you. If you leave it blank, you will need to phone them.
For directchat, the number you put down will not be visible to customers, as they phone a different number and get routed thro to you.

Classy_Katy

I don't offer booked phone chat - too much hassle, but I use my landline number for directchat in case I have signal or battery problems during a call.

It needs to be enabled in justcamit itself under audio and in your directcam settings on Adultwork (where you set your prices, you have the option of sound in free, group and private).

Hi girls! Loving AW so far, but something is bugging me. I set my self as available for webcam bookings, press update and log out. Later, maybe an hour or a few hours later, I get a text saying that my settings have changed to not available, and if i am available to respond to the text. However, i never changed the availbility box to not available. Is there someting im missing? Thanks

02-04-2013, 12:07 PM
It logs you out automatically after 2 hours. The availability for webcam bookings is only for pre-booked cam, not directcam.

Really sorry girls for the many questions, but could really use your help tonight.

I tried to transfer my credits using the transfer request form, selecting check. However, it gives me the following message

performing the transfer could result in a negative balance, becuase you have spent some, or all the credits that you have earned. I have certainly done neither.

Thank you!!!!

O2BCAMGAL
02-05-2013, 10:56 AM
I have realised that the amount transferred is including amounts that are not available for transfer, but its not listing the transaction so I can not deselect it.

Thanks for the link Katy, strange though as I havent spent any credits, will have to look into that one a bit more.

On a different note, do you have a business account for your camming payments? My bank wont let me use my accounts for business payments. As a result I have to open a business current account that has a monthy fee...cheek! This is in the UK by the way..

As if we dont have enough fees eh?

Classy_Katy
02-05-2013, 12:01 PM
It doesn't mean you've spent any credits...read it again, it's about deductions from your earnings.

I trade in my own name, I'm not "trading as", so there is no other identity that the bank needs to know about. I will go and check out Barclays' T&C now though. They can see that I pay NIC from my account and haven't asked any questions.

Interesting article. I wish I hadnt called my bank regarding making business deposits. Now they know I am self employed and can close my account if i use my personal account for business. Otherwise I would have just used my personal account.

Hey, hows AW for everyone today and yesterday? Quiet

Thats who I bank with! In the 5 years I've been camming/self emplyed I have never had a problem, in fact last year I applied for an overdraft and they turned me down, I rang and spoke to someone in the relevant dept and explained my employment status and that I sometimes have cash flow issues so an overdraft would help. They suggested that I should open a business account but I declind the offer as I didn't want to be paying for my banking. Nothing else was said, no threat of account closure etc. Personally I think it's just another way for the banks to try and get money out of us, greedy b******s! I would just use your normal account hun.

If you have clothes, equipments etc. that you can use with shows, I think you can tell people who wants to see it that you have a photo of your "nurse dress" for example, in your galery. They will most probably check it, at leat they do when I say it like that :)
If you mean your paid galery, they do check it on your request if its very cheap, like 0.5.

So I just wanna double check. When I log into my AW account and it shows that I have x credits, I just multiply 65% of that, and that's what I'm getting tomorrow (daily pay), right? The detailed credits statement is just confusing as hell to me. And then when I get paid via daily pay tomorrow, when I log back in, it will say that I have 0 credits, right?

Brown Fox, if you are using JustCamit then 65% is only minus the fees for AW and JustCamit. You will still need to subtract the amount DP takes out.

I find the easiest way to work it out is to take the total on your credits activity x41%=y total credits for the day-y= what you receive the next day. Your credits statement will only show the group transfer once or twice a week. Basically you are getting paid before DP are. I hope that's not confused you further lol.

Here's the link to your credits activity pge http://www.adultwork.com/CreditsTurnover.asp

Also if you join these forums http://adultworkforum.com/forum/index.php
http://adultworkwebcammers.co.uk/forum/index.php

You will find all the info/advice you would need :) There are detailed threads regarding how the payments work on the second forum.

Thanks for the replies! Yeah, I'm a member on those forums too, but sometimes explanations of certain things are a bit lengthy and confusing. Basically, I had just wanted to know if I had earned enough on AW to get a payment today, and I did because I see the payment's been sent to my Payoneer card this morning. I wish AW had an easier way to see your earnings for that day, like how it is with Streamate daily pay. I log into my Streamate account, and all I have to do is find the date and look to the right of that to see my earnings for that day.

It sounds like you don't know about this page? http://www.adultwork.com/CreditsTurnover.asp
This is before any fees have been taken off. The different services are shown by date and also the daily grand total.

If you only do DirectCam it is very easy to work out. Eg. 100 credits from DirectCam - 41% (30% AW, 5% JCI, 6% DP) = £59 (roughly $93)

For other services...
Phone/Webcam bookings, movies, pics, rentals, sales, erotica: deductions are 36% (30% AW, 6% DP)
DirectChat: variable. There is the 30% fee that AW takes, and the 6% that DP takes, but instead of the 5% that JCI takes when you are doing DirectCam, you lose £0.15 for every minute you are on a call (I think that figure is correct, girls feel free to correct me) so the actual % you lose on DirectChat varies depending on what you personally charge per minute.

That's weird!***west are the same over head company as the bank I bank with , and I never had a problem. I've also got a £2,000 overdraft (That I don't use)! though.
