I just spoke to my accountant and I am now allowed to claim a bounce back loan as earnings have been affected.
I’m working 14 hours a day, way more than I did before Covid and I’m still not hitting my targets if the money or paying customers aren’t there :(

Please consider getting a new accountant...you do not need a bounce back loan! This is what it says on the Gov site about the loan - https://www.gov.uk/guidance/apply-for-a-coronavirus-bounce-back-loan

Your income has been negatively affected and you are able to claim the grant. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/self-employment-income-support-scheme-grant-extension/self-employment-income-support-scheme-grant-extension

Am I right in what my accountant told me that you have to be earning less than 50k profits to be eligible to claim the grants?


found this online -

The Self-Employed Income Support Scheme (the ‘scheme’) is open to those who have annual profits of less than £50,000 and receive at least half their income from self-employment.

Okay that’s me out then :( I’ve also been told I can get a bounce back loan though. The rates are very low so I might consider it. I’d rather take it on now, and potentially need it in the next coming months than not take it and be stuck down the line, and if not needed I can just pay it back early!

Thanks for the advice girls x

It's good that you looked though, because at least you know for sure now why you couldn't get the grant.

Dahlia Fallon

Do check that it is 50k average over 3 years though - earning 50k + in one or even 2 of the years could average under 50 if one year was lower

Yeah that is right! It’s only the grants don’t need to be paid back at all, but they are only available if you have under 50k profits.
the bounce back loans are still good though.

Yes. Business has been vastly reduced for me on AW since about May. This time of year should be easy money, but in the past 4 days I have made 9 creds - 3 of those were from private gallery subscription. I had to drop my prices at the weekend to make the last 11 creds to make the payout limit, and it literally took alllll daaaayyyy of NOTHING until I had one client in the eve popping in and out cos he had a bad connection - without him I wouldn't have hit payout, otherwise I would have switched off sooner. Was like pulling teeth though, and proved lower prices doesn't necessarily mean more traffic/money.

Sorry to hear that Cat. That is quite brutal. Are you entitled to the self-employed grant which is available the end of Nov?

Yes, thank you :) , I've been claiming them previously - however, I do have some other income from C4S that's helped plus I've started diversifying even more so that I can leave AW behind at some point (although I do love it there, it was my first site and I am quite attached ;D ). It's hard work trying to juggle everything though, looking forward to the day it all starts paying off!

I do keep the opener and closer. You'll be ok with that, and ok with URL too I should think as long as URL has AW banner on first page (I think those are - or were - the rules). However, I think the OF url will be a troublemaker. Taking customers to a rival site.

I tried it tonight and it didn’t automatically log me out .... but I logged in from my laptop on the new browser and it was fine. Except no one could get in my room! A few of my regulars just said it was a blank screen!! Can we only log in from phones/iPads I thought we could still log in from laptops.

Yes, supposedly we can use laptops and desktops! I would report this to AW, cos it's still in beta and hopefully this will help iron out the issues before Dec 31st *prays*

Always keep an AW page that auto-refreshes open on another tab, to stop AW logging you out.

That happened to me! One of my best regulars couldn't get into my room and I'd been logged into the new broadcaster for about an hour or so. God knows who else was trying to get in and couldn't.

Direct IM has been so glitchy for me recently. Tonight I had a guy come into my Direct IM using a Special cam offer. It was a one-way cam special offer that I set up specifically for a regular of mine. How is that even possible when I'm not even on cam?

I have guys getting kicked out on a regular basis & over the last few weeks I've been moved onto another server about 10 times & now tonight this weird glitch.

I'd say that's how it is now. If you have regular customers then no doubt they WILL be back around. But AW has been hard to get new custies for a long time now. This latest update to the cam system has probably put the final nail in the coffin. This isn't to be a negative nancy, in fact when I go on I can almost guarantee I will have at least one guy spend £100+ almost immediately. My secret is to be very high priced and catch the coke heads or niche fetishists in the wee small hours like 4am. Try it x

I feel like the girls charge so little these days. Like before the only girls charging £1 for pvt was Eastern European models, you could literally spot them a mile off cause of how cheap in comparison to everyone else they were, where as now I see British models charging the same :/ I’m like wtf???

It’s just making everyone else look so expensive which is annoying!
I think if I put my prices high I’d get the odd guy but it would do my mental health no favours just sat there waiting around for them so I might consider dropping them just so I’m busier more often... ugh .

You're a massive ball of negative energy you know. I'm not like a crazy hippy but when you sit there full of negative energy nothing positive will ever come of it.

Hey, just a quick question...does anyone know if I want to permanently delete my profile do I need to wait those 2 weeks for my transfer to come in? I m not part of any group and receive my money 2 weeks after making the transfer, I made my last one this Tuesday...should I wait for the money to be in my account first or it does not matter?
Thanks for anyone who could help x

I think its partly the virus. Lots of unemployed girls. Lots of strippers not working. Lots of escorts not working.

Result = more girls on cam.

Less money, less employment.

Result = less punters with money and everyone more wary of spunking it (pun intended!).

Plus Adultwork is a horrible site that needed updating to modern standards about 5 years ago.

I've been having the same issue on IM recently. About a month ago I had one guy get kicked out about 10 times in one session. His sessions should have taken about an hour and ended up taking about 3 hours.

I reported it & they just fob me off saying that my client managed to chat for most of the night when I'm trying to complain that he was kicked out of my room for most of the night.

I think the servers are overloaded because since then I've been moved onto a new server about 10 times.

I stopped using AW months ago and even got an email from them saying my account is inactive and they're taking it off their listings which was fine.

Recently though I have been getting emails from them saying I am getting messages. Is there something going on with messages/they communicate with us through messages, or is this likely a customer talking to me? I don't really want to log on if it's not a customer because I don't want to bump up my profile there as I am not planning to go back atm.
