After 2 hours online for the phone, it switches you automatically to offline. It's a pain in the ass.
Yes. I saw this, thank you. In my case, the whole service is deleted, meaning that I can not offer phone chat without writing to them because it is a bug I think who turn off this phone chat service for me. Never saw such a thing. I was looking to see what a credit means in money value. 1 credit is how much? Thank you. Have a nice day.

I have a question: When I am on a call on AW and another Costumer tries to call too, doesn't he get an occupied signal?
I have it so many times that when I'm on a call , another costumer is trying to get trough.
Why AW not showing us offline when we're busy on a call?

Hello. I know the newbies are sometimes annoying, just like I am now asking silly questions but I promise this is the last one. Hahha. Thank you in advance for your kindness. I finally succeeded in staying connected for 3 days without Phone Chat turned off from my profile. This is Something!!
But... I do not get any calls. Hahah. I know maybe you have to have some hours there .. I do not know. On some sites, the fresh meat is attracting very quick.
From your experience.. how much time it will take till my first call? Or maybe is something I should do like marketing for my new profile or something else?
Hugs, have a nice productive $$$$$ day!!!

Phone is not as popular as cam. You probably won't get many calls until you start doing other things on the site like cam and uploading videos.

It will be hard with your £1.99 to get some calls. I tried lots, even 65p ...... it's not like NF or TTM. Far far away from that. There are a few girls on AW (you can see they have thousands of reviews) who are good in business.
9 out of 10 of the callers want no taboo. And I mean - really no taboo. Similar to another US site.
They send messages after messages (worse than on ttm) and it's completely for free. I have an automatic reply who gets send out when I reveive a message. I don't answer anymore.
I think the problem in the UK with Phonesex i: the market is highly overcrowded. Thousand of websites, Tv Channels etc for Phonesex. Some offer it for 36p ... I don't wanna know what the operators who actually taking the calls are being paid.
But anyway, good luck

I think it's not fair that camgirls who are online for cam and offer phone too, are shown on the first pages for Phone.
Don't get me wrong, business is business, but girls who only offer phone should be prioritized in their section.
The phonesex operators are not even showing up on the AW Live site.
I think the phonesex operators are only a side egg for the owners ;D;D;D

I did that a few times. Never helped me. I even paid to be phonechat member of the day 3 times. Not once did I make what I was paying for that. Was always more than 12 hours online for phone ... still not got the money in I spend. Can't believe I was so stupid and did it 3 times .....
It's weird, on the sites where you have to pay or bid to be on top and seen, I fail.
Sites who don't offer that and have a reasonable ranking or algorithm I bank.
Oh....I've done such a hard work to be approved and many other...What does it sell there? Escorts and cam? I can do audio, erotica... is this better? Omg . I did not expect this situation. Thank you for telling me. ❤❤❤

You will gain customers once they see you from doing other things. On AW customers come primarily for escorts, then cam, and increasingly for content/ movies. Every time you add a movie, pictures or other piece of content you get a little boost on the front page, every time you pay for featuring your profile your profile gets a boost that day. So once guys notice you they may start to call. You must also do as much of your own marketing as possible to bring customers to you rather than relying on the footfall of AW itself. Like with any site it will take time x

Thank God it's not just me! Yes I've done the same but had a problem. I used the beneficiary details I'd been using for years, my own account but they have rejected it, I assume because (like TONS of people) my bank account is in my initials and surname. They want it to be my first name and surname but then I'm sure the bank will reject the payments. I have to talk to them on live chat tomorrow to see what to do so I'll update when I know.

They sent two emails in the past month saying that your bank account cannot be in someone else's name now it must be YOUR name. I am wondering if it's matching up your reg details with your bank details input and rejecting because of that? Example: my name is Jane Smith but I didn't want AW to have my real name on record so I signed up as Janet Smyth. Of course my back account is under Jane Smith, so by putting that into the box it won't go through because I am registered as Janet Smyth.
Does that make sense? Has anyone had problems even though they are definately registered with their real name?
Also - even if I am registered under my real name of Jane Smith, and my bank account says "MISS J R SMITH" it should still go through as JANE SMITH (as most other payments do). Again, please report if this is not the case for you.
(PS: I am not Jane Smith.)

I didn't know that. I thought the whole point of the banking rules were that everything matched exactly including the way the exact name was written. I had the emails too and was wondering if they would 'see' my name as 'mine' if it was on my bank account as A. A. Jones for example. They didn't, because the email they sent to reject the beneficiary details said it needed to be my first name and surname. I'm not sure I want to put that in, have it accepted by AW and the bank reject my credits, that would be a nightmare to sort out.
Will speak to live chat tomorrow. If it's a total pain I'll use the Post Office option as there are no charges or maybe think about opening another simple current account in the name they want to receive funds.
So silly, I get the rules and don't object but surely many bank accounts are in initials and surname?

You've got a point there, the rules regarding sending & receiving money are changing/have just changed, so my info my be only just out of date.
I do know that previously (until recently) someone could send me money and use my full name OR my initials OR spell my middle name wrong (ie Jayne instead of Jane) and I would still receive it. I'll have to see what others are saying and what happens to my incoming payments.

When I open my banking app it says Mrs first name, last name. My bank statements say Mrs first name, middle name, last name. I can't imagine that first name, last name will be a problem.
It's best to check with your bank what versions of your name they will accept, AW won't know.

i have tried about six times yesterday and it keeps rejecting me. Im beyond frustrated. In reference to the part where it was said in one of the above posts about it matching the name they have on file when i go to edit profile, general there is a first name and last name box i have always left it blank as worried it would show my name on my profile or something is that what needs to have my real name or no? When I am going to add beneficiary its saying verified name as J SMITH so when I put account name as J smith it is still rejecting it?

They have finally approved mine. I had tried all variations apart from just my first and last name, i had been putting j smith for example or j a smith instead of jane smith. They emailed me back which i hadnt realised and said i need to put just jane smith and it worked so thanks for katies advise also.

You'll want to use sarah smith limited as that is a separate legal entity from sarah smith. If you've registed with AW as sarah smith limited, that should be ok.

I was wondering if any of you UK girls would be able to recommend a UK-based accountant who specialises in this field? I'm not worried about what people think, but I *do* want someone who is familiar with the industry and helps me claim on camming-related expenses such as a partial amount on beauty treatments and who is is of course reliable. I have Googled and been contacted by accountants, but I can't find many of their credentials and qualifications and very few of them seem to have much in the way of feedback - which is a huge security concern for me. I'd really appreciate any feedback on this, even if it's someone to steer clear of. If so, I'd really appreciate it if you could message me. Thank you. x

Looks like they're making me re-verify. The box is greyed out and "Choose Beneficiary" takes me to the Member Verification page. I sent AW a message last night asking how do I enter my name/beneficiary as I am already verified, and I received 2 emails today - one with a link to a help article explaining how to add your name and proof of your address, and the other saying "Unfortunately, the copy of the Passport you have submitted has not been accepted". My passport, that they already have a photo of, is not out of date.
I have written again.
EDITED:
And their reply:
Hello
Thank you for your email.
Apologies but the previous documentation we have on file is not sufficient for bank due diligence, would you be so kind as to provide a current copy of your photo ID (showing all corners) and a new verification photo here:

This is the email i got: Your sale/auction entitled '5 Minute costum Recording' has been removed from the site.
Sale outside our Terms of Use: Please refer to our Terms of Use.
I asked on the online chat help why that happened an they told me it's against the user agreement. BUT there are already a few Sales offers in the shop, same offers. They are in there for years and the women are selling of course a lot.
What is going on? Some are allowed and others aren't?

That's right. You aren't allowed to sell custom clips or audio, where the customer has to give you his email or you give a link to download from.
I don't know how others manage to advertise them via the mall (clever wording to make it sound like a physical & posted DVD/CD?). I do know that if you ask AW how you can sell customs they will suggest you put it for sale with your other clips/erotica on the site. This of course means that (technically) the buyer cannot download and keep it forever.

I don't know if it's the right thing to post here ... so: I offer only phone and IM. And lots of taboo .
But there is a big difference between US Callers (on other sites) and the UK callers when it comes to taboo.
The american caller goes straight into it. They tell me how and what they want.
But the Uk caller wants you to cater it. 9 out of 10 callers on AW "tell me the best taboo story ever" "What do other callers want when it comes to taboo, how sick do they want it?",
They don't tell me what they want, but they want me to feed them the story. This morning I had a discussion with a caller on AW and he said "I feel less guilty when you tell what and how to do. For me it's your mind thats sick and perverted and not mine!.And in case someone is listen to these calls, It won't be my fault!"
Does anyone has the same experience?
