I did. Awful customer service, rude and threatening. Not polite at all. What the heck is this site?
Ah, and you guys are forced to show your real age on the site? Is there a way to hide it? I do age play and I would like to not show my real age. None is exposing their models real age, omg.
We can put any age we want, there's nothing in the rules that says we have to be the age on our passports. Are they telling you different?

Yes, they told me in a very rude way that is my fault I can not use my account because the age on my profile is not the correct one. But I did not want to put my real age on the site. Anyway, I wrote them back asking how can I hide it and telling no site is forcing the performers to declare for clients the real age. OMG.
In all this time they could have tell me ...
Here below is their position regarding the true age of the performers;

MY question for you is how do you hide your real age on this AMAZING site?
Thanks.

Warning RANT!!
So I had this customer a few weeks ago that spent ages bartering with me about price saying he was a poor student and also cums quick so didn't want to spend much could I lower my rates. This is something I would never usually do but I had hit goal for the day and he nagged me so much I said ok on the terms that he would have to pay upfront for the show via an offer so he wouldn't be able to click off and get off for a few pounds basically. So anyway I entered the show and I did my usual hi how are you where you from nice and bubbly right. Then he came within the 6th minute and clicked off. Afterwards he left the following feedback:
She was rude in communications before the session and spent a considerable amount of the session itself timewasting before providing the requested show
So i was raging at this as after me being so nice and meeting him with his needs he goes and does that. Now fast forward a few weeks he has just emailed me saying can we have a chat and come to an agreement for another show LOOOOL!!!
i emailed and said wtf why did you leave me feedback like that and he said this:
I refrained from explaining that before to avoid a confrontation, so please don’t take this the wrong way if possible:
It was a lot of money for me to spend here, and when I lost control and came too quickly I felt embarrassed etc (initially just at my own poor performance), then I thought about it briefly and in that moment, i interpreted it as being: I came by minute 6 of the session, and you had talked a lot in the session initially before we started (could be seen as timewasting or you genuinely wanting to explain yourself and make amends) and my view is you were rude to me before the session, so I concluded that you had wasted some of my time in the paid session and your earlier rudeness had not been compensated by an amazing 10 minute session (granted it’s largely my responsibility if I cum too fast).
Those were my feelings at the time, but my feelings about you changed subsequently after further thought so I asked aw to delete the feedback but they said no.
Hope that gives you some comfort, if anything x
LOL some of these guys are actual nut cases. Like how does that make any sense. You came too fast and felt embarassed even though you said before the show this happens to you regular, then when it happened you decided to take out your poor performance on me. One could say i did a good performance is he exploded that quick from a customer point of view. He then wants to say that he was annoyed i had manners and spent legit only1 min asking his name where hes from saying it meant he got less of a show, how does that make sense as even if i didnt ask that if anything he wold of cummed a minute earlier and clicked off. Honestly the mind boggles. Some customers really are absolute idiots!! Just wanted to rant on here and if anyone wants to know the customer name pm me so you can avoid him like the plague!!

Ew, what human garbage. I have pointed guys towards special offers before, but haven't had anyone do this. Unbelievable behaviour. Block and move on, I'd say! I'd appreciate the guys name, if you don't mind my love!
On another note: I've seen girls put up their rates lately - yay! Great to see. :)

I'm unable to be displayed as online for Directcam. It was fine earlier, but now in my Details it's not showing as available for ANY devices (they aren't even greyed out, just completely not there) and I'm not showing on the Online Now OR AWLive sections. I see though that over 800 cammers are online, so what's happened to me? I've refreshed and logged off/on again, but nothing!
UPDATE: I've suddenly appeared again.
It's happening again, all evening. I have to log off and then on, and that doesn't always work. Even during paid for positioning slots!

I'm having an increase lately in emails trying to lure me off AW & offering to pay using the credit system & most of these emails are from accounts with no feedback. I wonder if it's AW testing people out? I don't understand why these guys would want to mess around like that when Direct Cam is pretty easy enough to use.
This happened to me too Kristen, not a lot only twice but with someone a few weeks apart who returned with a similar alias to their 1st one (both accounts had zero feedback and both accounts eventually deleted).. I smelled a rat straightaway each time but first time went along with it! Not their suggestion, ignoring that, I was just being responsive!
2nd time they came back with some (another) cock (excuse pun) & bull story about having previously used ladies on the site who accepted his paid bookings directly (off the AW site) and his reasonsing being he had to be careful as he didn’t want his work colleagues to see his private business blah blah ...(thou protest too much! - as I never asked/enquired!! talk about over explaining, hence the Shakespeare quote!)....that aside, I thought that the billing description on paperwork, credit card statements etc that come via AW is discrete.
Second time they came back (with a similar zero feedback alias, after deleting the first one), I ignored them, they did well out of me the first time as I must have replied about 5 times, normally if it is a new person who just wants to engage in table tennis style emails I sense it and afford them the luxury off perhaps 2 free replies... (if they are a regular then of course I operate in a different way!).
I found them well, erm, if I'm being honest!... irritating (patronising!) and FAKE! (written in a way as if they were doing me a favour) but jollied them along & remained my usual polite self! :)
But yes I felt I was being tested by the system …… in much the same way as Tesco's scan and check do random checks!! - perhaps that's how they operate in trying to sort out the wheat from the chaff! I felt my loyalty was being 'tested' - I did not bite the bait not that I would as I never go off site anyway. (And then it was some time later they also deleted their 2nd zero feedback alias).
As an aside, does anyone know of any other Adult friendly site where you can sell adult goods, like toys (NOT used items or custom stuff, movies etc)? --- apart from Ebay and Amazon is there any other site that allows this, like a Marketplace, similar to AW format?
P.S.
I don't think any of the camming sites allow/have it, I know Niteflirt allow Sales but not new items and/or sex toys I don't think... am pretty sure it is all custom stuff/clips/pix/movies, that is not what I want (so sites like Clips4Sale are out as I think the Sales stuff they allow too is used/2nd hand and/or custom made, movies etc).

This is why you should NEVER EVER cow tow to the lowest denominators of these sites - never lower price, never 'negotiate' your boundaries, never tell them more than you're comfortable sharing, never go online 'just for them' etc etc... if he's not spent anything/ much with you before and he's already being pushy IGNORE IGNORE IGNORE.
Just like in the 'real' world if a guy came up to you on the street and says "hi baby you're soooooo gorgeous, I'm reallly really broke and can't afford to take you out properly but if i buy you a beer will you have sex with me?" you would be horrified right? Hopefully you would have more self respect than to 'give him a chance' or take pity on him at the expense of YOUR body?!
You must train them that you only respond to behaviour which benefits YOU.
I'm so sorry this twat did that to you, but you must trust your intuition in future - if he's bugging you and giving you bad vibes, just don't even give him the satisfaction of an acknowledgement. You don't need to read his stupid long pathetic emails, he's a LOSER and loser's don't deserve your attention, goal met or not.
Also AW demanding a real age??! Bwahahaha

Tax reasons I would assume....I've just had a warning about taking payment outside the site which I have never done and i've proper shit myself. been on the site 9 years so wouldnt risk it for a few quid. Trying to find out exactly what I have done. Proper shit me up it has!
Honestly, all those emails - and calls and IM - I get from ppl who get their rocks off just asking me to go offsite are so annoying.
I saw someone else saying they never have feedback, and I think it's just the same guys doing it again and again and getting their asses banned but then just coming back.

I know I know! I was kicking myself after like why didn't I trust my gut. I don't ever usually do anything like that I am actually really good at turning down shows and telling them to p off quite frankly. I guess its because I had hit goal and I thought oh why not. I made him pay upfront via an offer to still made bank off it even though he clicked off early. But yeah wasn't worth the shit feedback, learning curve for sure.

You can put in the birth date that you want.
I think the issue is that AW is telling her that she CAN'T put what she wants, she has to put her ACTUAL birth date, otherwise she is deceiving customers. So she would prefer to hide her age rather than put real age.

04-01-2020, 12:24 PM
I don't know why AW are insisting on that. After initially verifying my account and filling my real DOB in I've been changing it every year to remain 29 forever. I've had to re-verify my ID half a dozen times (they've insisted when I change counties) and the age issue has never been queried.

Same. I would not work on any site that insists on my real age. My only regret is that i did not put 18 when i first started. Cause eventually the system tells you 'you cannot put that date or you would have been underage' hahaha so now I'm forced to appear older than i want to anyway and that's bad enough.

And again.
Surely I'm not the only one disappearing?! It's happening in free chat, and with free switched off, and paid for, and not paid for. Each time - WHEN I spot it - takes at least 20 mins for me to be loaded back onto the site once I have logged off and back on again.
Looks like I will have to ditch AW evenings/nights.

Hi Ladies
I have just had a customer enter via offer and for some reasons hes either left but i think his connection went tbf and then he also tried to exit into one offer before he got in and it charged him for 2 shows basically. What will happen, will he get a refund and be able to claim some of my credits back or? Not had this happen before. Ty

I think the servers are overloaded & struggling right now with all the extra providers. The other day I noticed my IM link took ages to turn back to green after I'd finished a chat & today when I went to log on, it wouldn't connect me the first time. Yes, it's glitchy.

I've always been able to put what -ever age I want into mine. Currently I have my real age, but I altered my date of birth. I wouldn't recomend anyone put in their exact date of birth. But, no unfortunately there is no option to actually hide a date of birth. It's not like TTM where we don't need to disclose it on the sites.
I wouldn't worry about what age is on your profile. I don't even think most even read that far down. Yesterday, I had a guy asking me to role play a school girl & I'm 46.

Would REALLY appreciate clarity re the 2 points below:
1. Does anyone know when selling something on AW in the Marketplace if you can use Tracking numbers from the likes of Yodel, Hermes, DHL etc?
Or does it only allow Royal Mail Tracking numbers?? - as the site seems to imply - or is set out like that with Royal Mail links perhaps as a reference only. Am guessing that the site layout (re this in the For Sale/Selling section) hasn’t changed over the years and was done/set up like that when it first started (and it has not been updated since) and therefore other Tracking/Delivery companies (such as the above) are allowed?
2. Does anyone know of any other Adult friendly site where you can sell Adult goods, like NEW Sex Toys? (NOT used items or custom stuff, photos, movies etc) --- apart from Ebay and Amazon is there any other site that allows this, like a Marketplace similar to the AW format? – perhaps an add on part of a Camming/Phone Chat sex site?
I know Niteflirt allow Sales but I don’t think it is on NEW items and/or Sex Toys I don't think... maybe someone could clarify?
Also the same with Clips4Sale, I don’t think you can sell new goods via there, only used or custom movie clips etc. Hence my question. /:O
Would be really grateful for anyone’s knowledge on any of the above. Thanks in advance.

As much as I appreciate fresh blood, I hope the girls who really aren't cut out for this figure it out quickly and move into other fields which they're better suited to.
I noticed on AW under either the 'Current Status' or 'Whats New' heading (can't remember which!) but it is where they refer to Covid 19, if I remember correctly in that post they encourage Escorts to avail of Webcam and Phone Chat, (which I imagine they already had as most folk are having to diversify their talents during these times).
So basically I would say it is not particularly NEW people to the site but those who have flicked a switch and enabled/ticked the box for Webcam/Phone Chat, seeing as face to face contact is now an issue, (it is probably another way of keeping in touch too with their regulars who they can't see in real life). At least they can work from home.
Problem too is unemployment as with about a Million or so folk applying for Benefits in the UK in the last 2 weeks it also effects Service Seekers (who have to 'cut their cloth', i.e., pay their food/bills etc first, fun second!).
Also with most folk at home together/all under one roof (with no partner OUT at work) it probably makes it less easy for paying custies to grab some cam/phone fun.
Additionally the Adult industry has been hit too, stripclubs etc closed due to being non-essential services, so guess where those who offer Adult services frequent, yup probably jumping on cam etc. It is effecting everyone I guess in one way, shape or form.
P.S.
Basically the 'other fields' you refer to that they are better suited to I guess have been culled, hence they diversify... (onto Cam etc).

This is under 'Current Status' on AW - 3 separate entries.

Thanks adultwork, thanks a lot. So all the years the rest of us have put in mean nothing... we don't get a second thought. Just push us out completely why don't you!
I felt the same when I read it. It's almost as though they see their escorts as way more valuable than their base cammers and phone sexers, and the escorts need to be kept on site no matter what....
I understand them helping/assisting escorts to continue earning via AW. But... ::)
Makes me even more suspicious about my recent non-visibility.

04-04-2020, 03:00 PM
I'm not impressed AT ALL. Agree with Susie and not only that, let's flood the site with hundreds of new cammers and make in even MORE difficult to earn a living. Thanks a bunch.
Actually I want to edit this. I don't take issue with ladies that move to cam from escorting, I'd do the same and I begrudge nobody's decision to change tack and earn a living a different way if their usual work isn't possible. There was always going to be an increase in cam right now because of the situation.
What I mind is the fact there is nothing for the regular cammers. Brings to mind the 'brand new customers only' advert from a few years back! Probably a UK advert - sorry US!
Ambercat
04-04-2020, 10:17 PM
I'm so irritated by this as well. Previously I've escorted and then cam on AW is to keep things steady when I can't get across to the UK. The support fund isn't such a grand gesture as it appears anw, "if you earn 200 credits" - AW keeps nearly 60 for processing "a bonus of 143 credits" - AW will keep 40 of that when you withdraw. So they're actually giving out of their own pocket is 40creds. But as its been said not for me, I get to lose all my escorting earnings and a huge dip in visibility when I am online. Feel like I'm just going to focus my efforts elsewhere and move my regs to other platforms after next payout.
Wow, that's ranty for me - just needed it off my chest

I don't have much more to add to this here, except that I am in agreement with all of you. Really unimpressed with AW. I've just got to keep my eye on the prize - as do we all - other sites always come through eventually, even if it means being on a bit longer at the moment. The other thing is, their servers are absolutely overloaded in the evenings, I don't think they can cope at all with all the girls online atm. It's a shame as it's meant I couldn't complete a few shows. Kept getting kicked off with a big spender the other night. Shame!

AW has always been known for it's Escort pages and being a adult website for selling movies and pictures. Webcamming wasn't as popular as it is now, it was a niche back then. It's filled with many girls from Webcam Groups. Even if it's flooded with girls doesn't stop you wanting to make money, change your mindset and update and spice up your profile :)

There might be more of us getting into this side of things but in the last few weeks I've brought in 3 of my regulars who haven't ever been tempted to do phone or camming.
They haven't just chatted with me, they also tried webcam. I don't object if they're helping pay towards someone else's bills, maybe they'll become your new regulars instead of mine.
My stress levels have gone through the roof wondering when I'm going to get out to work again so I'm grateful to be able to earn something while I'm stuck at home.
I was coming on here to say hello & see if I can pick up some tips on how to get started with webcamming - are newbies welcome?

Yes, all newbies are :) The gripes above are directed at AW, not the ladies trying to earn. Welcome :)

Is anyone having problems with directcam in the last week, more people than normal are coming into paid mode and going straight out, even my regulars, one today couldnt hear me and the sound was not working.
I know it is not an issue at my end as I am doing shows elsewhere with no issues, my shows on Skype and ICQ are working perfectly.

I tried logging into BS on JCI and it worked fine so just aw that's the issue with that error message. Even logged in via jci lite online and same error message?
I don't know what to do as rebooted and nothing will log me in so frustrating.

Just tried mine, no issue but I don't use the lite.
When I get the server status error it's because of my Internet speed. When I used to be at hotels it was a particular issue signing into their WiFi, I found reducing the image quality and max fps was a quick fix.
Try resetting your Internet. Hopefully it's just that and not jci as a whole. Don't need any more reasons for AW to be rubbish right now :-(

Since relocating to the UK I have gotten a lot more attention on AdultWork - to be fair, the system is quite frustrating, because I can deliver the same service from Australia, so suddenly pushing me because I am in the UK isn't really fair on all the hard working Australians who never get a go - but have been getting a load of randos requesting escorting services.
Are there really escorts still working right now? I hope those girls are charging a premium to take the risk.

Id imagine there will be, especially if they’ve not been declaring as they won’t be entitled to financial help (even if they have been im hearing those 80% of income packages aren’t as simple or helpful as they seem from friends who run vanilla businesses). Guys are definitely still asking for it to, my bestie works on and off as an escort and he’s still getting hit up by guys daily - often they try to lowball him probably hoping he’s desperate for the money :(

That's so gross, the lowballing I mean.
Ah well, I guess it is probably happening everywhere (people escorting in lockdown).

indeed! I imagine even more so in places that escorting is illegal so financial support would be harder to get - or places that are excluding sex workers from financial relief (japan springs to mind - they did backtrack after backlash over it tho)
speaking of, the bbc did a pretty decent article about the move to online sex work - it was really fair I think, talked about the challenges and why its not quick easy money but didn't make it sound like we're being exploited or abused

...Sadly I have lost a couple of high spending regulars, that have left because they were disgusted at a taboo they were acting out in group.
Oh gawd no, I NEVER tolerate taboo in Group. Group chat for me is pretty vanilla; tits, tease, chat etc. Anyone wanting anything SPECIFIC or not mainstream, or even C2C, need to go to Private.
Hello, how are you?
Could you please recommend me something to read in order to learn about AGE PLAY phone sex?
I am looking for anything, it could be: books (including psychology), courses, posts on forums, movies, etc. You can DM me if it is more appropriate.
Or maybe you will be kind to tell me how did you learn AGE PLAY.
Thanks a lot, have a wonderful day!!! Stay safe.

I don't do fetish shows in group, even if it means losing them. I'm surprised some guys would want certain fetish shows in group...my customers who want something out of the ordinary always come into private.
Fetlife can be a useful place for understanding and learning about different fetishes. I think ageplay is like any other role playing...you need to know what scenario they want, what role they want you to play, and how they want you to play it. Some will think that their idea is the only possible idea and it won't have occurred to them that you can be asked to provide very different responses to the same scenario...so getting all that out of them before you start without killing the mood is probably the trickiet part. There is nothing to learn as such, you just need to know what they want then get into the role.

Hi why would you want to learn this and cater to this? 9/10 guys requesting this will want you to pretend to be under legal age. When I first started off on cam I dabbled in taboo not realising how bad it is and what some of the requests are and its disgusting and awful what u have to hear and they want u to pretend to be to cater to them. Don't do it its against TOS to offer these type of shows, iv had it confirmed

They don't always want the performer to pretend to be younger...they may want them to be their actual age or older, and it is them who pretend to be younger.
