Hi Ladies

Does anyone have any experience with getting a mortgage with their sole income being from cam. Im looking to buy my first place at the end of the year and wondering if any one has any advice due to the nature of the job we are in. Is it similar to renting in sense that they will ask for accounts and bank statements. Also do I have to be honest and say what I do or can I say im an artist or something for example lol. Just wondering if I can be discrete or no. Any help would be much appreciated.

It's best to have an accoutant. You will need to demonstrate your income. If they ask you what you do for a living you will have to answer if honestly otherwise they can claim you obtained the mortgage through fraud.

Does anyone sell customs on AW, and if you do, how do you take payment? Can you sell it for tips, or do you create an item on the marketplace? I don't really know what the rules are regarding this. I got a guy wanting a custom and don't know what to tell him. Ah, also, do they monitor AW emails? Like, can I get into trouble telling a custie to come and pay me in tips? I'm so paranoid since my old profile got deleted.
Thanks! x

No you won't unless you're encouraging payment off site. I do sell customs and take tips for them, you can also sell via your store as the customer's money is then protected until you say you've sent the item x

What is the highest you can set cam shows at as a newbie? Payout %?

sexysusie
03-28-2019, 03:37 PM
Not sure there's an upper limit, i just set mine as 300 per min and it accepted it! I would suggest between 2.50 - 5. You get 70% of that x

03-28-2019, 04:26 PM
sorry i should have been clearer - justcamit, which is what you use to do direct cam and direct IM are a seperate platform, so they also take a fee of 5%. So while you get 70% for pre-booked webcam (skype) shows and gallery sales, it's actually 65% for directcam. There is a variable fee for phone chat which usually works out around 34 - 40%

Do you mean custom movies? I don't because I find they're too cheap on AW and because I believe you can only supply the movie by CD/DVD as it has to be an actual object when you sell something. You can't do it as a normal movie sale because our movies are meant to be pay to view within a 15 min period and not downloadable (although they can download them, they seem to have varying lengths of time for which they're playable.) Emails can be monitored, so I am wary of giving them my email address so I can deliver the custom as a download link from a file sharing site.

Omg seriously? Ugh. I'm in texas...

Guess that just leaves me with SM and Niteflirt. I refuse to do 90 minutes worth of shows for .39 a minute on Imlive just to be able to raise it to another piddly amount of money

You'll be fine with nf and sm, both good sites where you can have nice high rates. IM Live is definitely not worth it.

I meant to say in my last reply...I will make movies for regular customers, I just don't charge them for making the clip because they are a regular on cam and because their ideas sell well for me on C4S and AW.

AW had a clean up of the marketplace over last summer and removed all custom movies. I used to sell loads through that and they removed mine and believe everyone elses as well. They much prefer you to sell even customs via your movies / clips button which is totally weird.

That's interesting. It looks different now when clicking on movies...I wonder if they're changed it from pay to view without bothering to tell us, the button now says "buy now"..in which case, like hell should they should they be encouraging us to sell them so cheaply...fine for it to be only 2 credits or less for a 15 minute viewing but not for keeping forever and how dare they not tell us of a change to how our content is dealt with!

So I like the look of the new Movies tab layout/design, but I noticed my clip durations are showing as seconds (ie: 0.03) rather than minutes (ie: 4.26).

I reported this to AW, and they rewarded me by telling me off for having "Mummy" (in a BDSM context) in my directcam strapline.

(This was an oversight by me as I rarely change this strapline, so must have been there for months, long before they enforced the age-play rule. My point is they "Profile Moderated" me rather than fixing the problem.)

I'm not surprised at all. I find AW to be the absolute worst support-wise. They truly don't give a fuck about their models.

It's the same with C4S, sadly. Maybe a way round it is to report a problem when in your Seeking Services account, which you could do with the time being obviously incorrect.

Did we get a definitive answer on wether movies are now downloadable? I've been adding some new ones and pricing at £10 etc for 10 mins. I seem to remember something about they can't use freeviews on movies over £10 so might work out for the best anyway? Anyone put their audio mp3s up too? I'm gonna give aw a shot at content as haven't bothered in years.

I don't have much faith in the helpdesk knowing how the movie situation works...when I raised it years ago, they told me I must be using special software to download them when it was actually incredibly easy to do so and I explained to them how it's done. The way to test it would be to buy one of your clips through your service seeking account and see what happens.

Movies/photo gallery need to be 11+ credits to avoid them using their freeview allocation. It is supposed to be only one freeview per account by the same person. My movie sales went down after VAT was introduced and I haven't been adding many since then. MP3s go into recorded erotica, mine were listened to when new.

Is anyone managing to still do well here? I'm about to get back on cam after a few months off and can see on another site that lots of girls are going up to 7 hours without speaking to anyone.

I have other eggs but used this as my main...would anyone recommend focussing on Niteflirt more?

Is Adultwork down tonight (Friday 12th)? I can't seem to log into the site and also cannot log into Just Cammit. Just shows this all the time -- "Server Status : Connecting to Server, wait".... and then a about a min later this "Server Status : Cannot Connect to Server" (plus nothing happens when I try to log into the site, it doesn't even go to the Home page). :(

Is it just me or can anyone else log in?

Phew thought it was me, I haven't logged in in a while, trust me to pick the wrong time/night!! Was starting to panic thinking maybe they booted me off the site, even though I couldnt think of anything I did wrong, (but from reading posts on here sometimes you don't have to do anything wrong!) - I was thinking maybe I havent ticked compliance boxes or something but then thought surely they'd write beforehand with a warning, but with AW you can never fully tell.

Also I had to remind myself I couldn't even get ON the site even to the homepage so hardly kicked off. Anyway, hope its not another one of those DOS attacks. :O

EDIT: I even checked their (AW's) Twitter and links to other AW service providers on there page and some Tweets were written only half an hour before I wrote above post including a Tweet from AW which was 57 mins before I put above post on here. Hopefully they are aware of it! (seeing as there doesn't appear to be a way to write to them/let them know... meaning I'm not on Twitter).
