You can't run CMD 2.0 & SkyPrivate at the same time unless you have a separate Skype and computer.
It is the same plug-in and won't recognize the difference in sites.
I just discovered that. I emailed and they said they are going to fix that but for now I have to use 2 computers in order to be on both sites at the same time.

Oh, that sucks! I don't have that second laptop anymore. I'll have to choose one or the other.

Yeah it does suck. Hope they get it fixed soon.
Surely they will because they are going to lose money too with some not able to run both sites.
You can still use the old CMD site in the meantime, just wait to sign up to CMD2 when they have the plugin so that it will work with both at the same time.

Do you get more shows on CMD than SkyPrivate? I haven't used either in a while (The more recent one used was SkyPrivate, and I loved the plugin so I didn't have to watch), but I'm thinking that after Christmas or at the start of the new year I'm gonna start getting back on there again. .

Hello, I created a profile on the new cmd and ofc doesnt work because I have skyprivate already, oh well. Btw, do you know why some models being new on the site skyprivate are 5 stars already so quick not even a week and with only 12, 5 stars ratings rank very high and many of us that have been on the site for months and with more than 60 5 stars, still struggling to get at 5 stars. So weird. I asked support but still no answer and mostly of those models are from latin studios charging 1 dollar. Btw, I make more on skp than cmd.

I contacted support three days ago and this is the response given "soon they will be back on duty they will verify your account". Still nothing.
I'm extremely annoyed. I realize it's the holidays but this is a 24/7 business and someone needs to be available to cover for a large business like this. Holidays can be super busy and I'm beyond pissed at missing out on money I could be pulling.

I think the issue is resolved for me. So far, I’m not having any luck there. I suppose with the merge we all have to compete by bidding. Hopefully, it will pick up because CMD used to be my biggest money maker!

Were you able to make listings before your profile was approved? I'm STILL waiting for approval but I cannot find where to make listings.
I completed my profile and my age verification was approved nine days ago on 12/21. The only thing I was missing was to add photos which I did five days ago, still not approved.
The answer I got back from support yesterday was that I will receive an email when approved. Why in the world is it taking over a week?

Their emails have gone to my social, spam, and promotions tabs at random (if you have gmail). I was approved quickly, but had to ask to be able to get the listings unlocked.
Random gripe: dudes on indie seem to have gotten worse. Maybe it’s the ones that target newbies, but absolutely everyone so far wants to chat a while before the show. I was only gone 3ish years and it seems like a totally different feel to these men. I haven’t even taken a show because 50-60 guys have added me and just send emojis/try to chat me up or blast me with messages when I’m not even online.

Thanks for the info.
I'm getting their emails fine. I've been told by several different support people that I will receive an email when approved, no information why it's taking all this time. I thought maybe it's because I don't have listings yet, so thanks for confirming I have to be approved first to even make a listing.

This may help: In your settings you can set it so that nobody can even see your Skype ID to add you unless they have money in their account. I do that on skyprivate also. I set mine at $25. I figure if they don't have at least $25 they probably are not intending to buy.

Finally they verified my account. No explanation as to why it took 11 days from when I sent my ID copies and everything but I'm glad I can finally try out the updated site.
OK edited to add - nothing has really changed for me. Nobody so far has added me from the new site at all. I'm getting shows but only because I'm logged into the old CMD.
I misunderstood how this would work. I thought the new one was going to replace the old one but nope.
I think I'm going to use one skype for the new site and use a different one at the web based one at web.skpe.com for the old one so I can tell which site they are coming from.

In this case, I’m talking about old CMD. It used to be my main, but a few years later/new model persona it isn’t going so hot. I put a min on new CMD, but it doesn’t matter because 0 people have contacted me. Ha.
I have tons of adds from old CMD as of recently, but all of them want to talk way too long before paying. So, I guess it isn’t my jam now. I can’t afford to let these guys get all personal for 5-10 mins.

Any of you girls getting shows thru the new cmd page? i reffered a regular for a show and neither of us knew that the funds arent available right away to pay for shows when they pay using the credit card, cmd told us that it may take up to 12 hours, more than 24 hours have passed and nothing yet, ended up doing the show anyway which is a huuuge risk but we had the show scheduled for months, my period was going to come the next day and i told HIM to use the new page so i could get a bigger cut and give him a discount, he send screenshots and i have worked with him before so its a trusted customer, the thing is, it was an hour and a half long show and im starting to get super anxious, i contacted support and ask them to put a warning about the hold taking place before guys enter their card because most guys just want to pay and get the show right away, they dont wanna wait 12 hours or DAYS, no erection last that long lol, we are risking loosing customers or the chance of getting scammed if we do the show anyway, if i knew this before hand i would have him paying thru the old page, feeling like crap atm i wanted to know if any of you girls have gone thru something similar using the new page and how long did it take for the funds to be available for paying, and if not just warning y'all about this before hand...

That is how it is on SkyPrivate for new members and CMD is basically a SkyPrivate 2.0. I didn't know this until I sent a guy to SkyPrivate because ironically CMD wasn't properly processing payments and after putting $200 on his account he was told he couldn't use the funds for 24 hours. He said screw it and canceled his account right then.

Wow. I had no idea. I've never had anyone complain about that so far on Skyprivate but I bet that's why some of my referrals haven't spent anything.

This year so far a big fat 0, almost end of january and zero shows, I bring some customers here and there but before I was making 3 shows a week from their same custies but lately nothing. Since these changes Idk why Im not getting shows anymore. Im about to give up plus the new cmd.2 is so silly I cant open this site bcause uses same plugin of skyprivate and I dont have a second pc. Im about to close it. Lets see.

It was my understanding that it was required (not optional) to be sent 1099's on earnings received through the original payment processor and no email or other information has been posted otherwise until your post. Why has there not been any communication regarding this matter? Many US based models have been waiting on it in order to file our taxes.

I sent an email but I haven't received a response. Yes previously it was communicated that we would get a 1099 from Segpay not from the new payer as Segpay is US based. What is CMDs EIN/Taxpayer ID for US models so I can claim my earnings correctly as a 1099 contractor? Every change there is a new model manager/account manager. --> Ally, Ashley, Cathy, Alex, and now Dani.

Same. Our old CMD profiles now automatically re-direct our customers to the new site for payment (only those of us who signed up).
I have over 30 screenshots of customers saying they do not want to sign up on another site and being kinda pissed off. I was making over 500 a week just starting over again on CMD. Now maybe 200-300 if I’m lucky from a few regs.

Well I signed up to cmd 2 and actually I like how it works, I don`t need to do much to live so traffic its ok, but I have a huge problem with this site. We all know nice clients are not the rule but exception and I suck it up with assholes because well, that`s what you do in every job. But what it does bother me is that they can report for literally anything, the team take all the time they need, and in the meanwhile we can´t withdraw our funds. I had 2 reports in like 4 days, one from a guy who was complaining for a show we did 2 years ago and now for a guy who said that I dont look like the girl in the pictures and he didnt liked the show, asked a refund because "it only lasted 2 minutes" ike if that was my fault, Those 2 minutes were enough to barker orders, get me naked and finish his business. he told me I was hot, then proceed to report and ask a refund because he said he didnt liked me, Its like I enter a store, eat half of a box of cereals and dont wanna pay for it because I´m not hungry anymore and I didn.t like them that much. I think its ok that members had a say too, of course, but they can do it literally for nothing and our funds are in hold for a week just because a troll or some guy with anger issues, or a plain scammer just wanna throw a tantrum. Neither of them provide captions or anything. Or either I´m the worst camgirl or it is wayy too easy for them to have us under their control.
I don`t wanna overextend myself, but when a site gives so much power to clients put as in a disadvantage position and we have to put up with everything as they get their way, the whole issue brings me flashbacks of Livejasmin.

I haven’t had that issue on CMD yet. Maybe because my customers are all old school regulars— I have had maybe 4 newer customers in the two months I re-opened my account. Even the seemingly nicest dudes will turn into a Karen to get free orgasms. Had it happen on Streamate, but they fixed the issue.
My biggest issue is no new customers and the loss of old ones because they are crying about the new site. I’m sure they will suck it up and make an account eventually.
Also, what’s with the ALL AMERICAN and weird flag push? I’m in the US, but probably half the models are not. That’s just deceptive and odd.

Yes. I was making shows before changes and now? Not anymore, no new custies at all. Also the flag thing. Well, I really loved how categories were in the old CMD, Ebony, muscular, bdsm, etc etc, Now the new categories are by Location, if you want an Ebony or Asian, have to go to advance settings. I just hope they fix this because the site is becoming a bit weird, Im loosing business as many other out there. And what about the 100% American? then why not aswell 100% Asian or 100% Latina?:O I just need this income back. Atleast skyprivate have normal categories and I hope they keep them that way.

The discord for them is a real shitshow, read posts from the company reps state that models shouldn't air their complaints on the server. WTF?? I was excited about them raising the minimum per minute allowed but using a shady company as a payment processor has no appeal to me at all. Its very disappointing, hopefully someone enterprising will use the former CMD site model and offer an alternative.
