Is there anyway to start your account on here from scratch bc my dumbass just accidentley blocked a good customer that spent $$ on me. I emailed support but they say they see no one with his name on my blocked list. Ugh I honestly wish there wasn't a blocking option on here.

Hello I know this has probably been asked but how legit is Phrendly I’ve been looking online for information and get mixed reviews some say good and have gotten paid others say this place is a scam and they never got paid or got sent a fake bogus check. I have children and it’s hard to work and afford childcare and I moved to a different state so I do not have family to help me with childcare so working from home is suitable for me I’ve tried doing online surveys but barley make a dollar on them so last thing I need is a company that may or may not be real to scam me sorry if my question has been asked I’m sure it has its just hard to find information from actual workers that are not from years back maybe it has improved since then but I’d like to know if it’s worth it if it is legit and how safe is direct deposit or having a mailed check would you say you’ve made decent money?....sorry if my question is all over the place I’m just desperate

It does actually pay by direct deposit. It takes about 10 days after you make payout. I'd also consider signing up for other texting/phone/cam sites so that if this site gets slow, you still have other money coming in. Good luck! :)

This is absolutely a legitimate company. It's good that you question it but don't even worry about it. I personally get direct deposit 4 days after payout.

[SIZE=3]Yes they do pay by direct deposit but right now there is a big issue with people getting charged for things they are not supposed to be charged for. You wouldn't understand it at this point, but they
have a way to promote yourself by paying bids to get a spot on a certain page. It's called the campaign. If you can't afford to bid for a spot on the first few pages, you usually don't make much on Phrendly.

You can search on google for Phrendly Help and then on that site for Promoted Profiles. It will explain the bidding for a spot on the pages. (they have another company for phone sex Nitelfirt they have texting there too, this one is mostly sexting and videochatting which i'm sure you know what it's for)

So you pay let's say $2.30 to be on Page 2. Being new you wouldn't end up on page 2 because your camscore gets combined with your bid so you would be on a much much lower page and position.

Then everytime a guy clicks on your profile and he has a VALID credit card on file you get charged $2.30 or a portion of it.Sometimes even if he doesn't talk to you but just clicks on your profile on a certain page

These charges add up fast and without bidding you really don't earn much on this site anymore. People who have been here awhile have regular clients to help. Before they had the campaign and bidding it was easier for new girls to make money. Now unless you want to bid you will show up after 1000 pages when Phrendly even tells us that page 1 and 2 make most of the money.

Right now they are charging people when they shouldn't be it is a glitch in the system. One girl was charged over $500 in errors. They are not refunding most of us.

So I'd suggest following this thread and find out if the people ever get refunded or not. One girl was refunded 2 of them and one person $100 so far. And someone posted on here that they were refunded a couple also.

**I'm editing this to say that some people are being refunded. But it isn't easy to be.** So Phrendly does not seem to be a company that scams people. They do always pay on time which is nice. And don't charge for it.

Anyone else stop getting alerts to your phone from the app? I had to log in via the website. That's when I realized that I had messages that for whatever reason didn't go to my phone. Of course by the time I decided to check on the website, it was too late to get credit for them. Argh!

Wow this site is a ghost town now or at least this thread is! Since the campaign started and Jamma stopped posting here nothing gets fixed and there are more problems.
I wrote in months ago about the notification issue twice. Mine stopped months ago too. They don't fix it. They act like there is no problem and that I am the only one who has the problem I'm supposed to check my phone!!! I have a few iphones , an ipad and an IMac. It doesn't work on any of them.

I get messages on my phone sometimes a half hour later, sometimes right away and most of the time not at all!! Please write to them briefly so I stop being told I am the only one who has a problem or so they get it fixed. I can't use it if i go out now so I have to stay home a lot which sucks. I can't look at it while driving so never know if i have a message or not. In Nov & Dec I made very little because I couldn't stay home all the time and my score went way down from missing messages. It was the worst 2 months i've had due to the notification issue.

Thanks in advance if you report it to them!!!

So a guy just asked me how much it costs to cam with me & I said it should be on my profile & he's right, it's NOT on my profile.

Why isn't it?

I shouldn't have to go into my account each time to give it to them. :(

I am honestly just so confused by Phrendly's algorithm. I'll be 1000+ for weeks, totally ignoring the app. Suddenly I'll get a bunch of notifications in pretty quick succession, and load it up to find I'm top 100? I don't bother starring anymore or count on it as an earner in any way, because the major placement flip flops are just so bizarre to me, but I guess it's nice when things randomly pick up and I can make a bit extra.

I think what happens is that when a person has a 1000+ placement they aren't getting starred much, however occasionally there will be some dude who is looking through the back pages who finds you and stars you or message you, that 1 star (especially when placed so far back) will trigger the phrendly algorithm to catapult you into the first 5-10 pages at which point loads more dudes discovers your profile and stars you. Hence the quick succession of attention. If at that point you fail in response rate, fail in earnings or fail to stand out in the other formula sort categories you'll once again soon enough fall back into the back pages.

It would almost make sense, except that even at 1000+ I still get starred and maybe the rare message, but it doesn't budge me. Maybe it's if a guy with more than free credits who messages or stars? Only thing I can think of. But I'm kind of done trying to figure it out, I'll just keep it installed and take the few days of earning here and there as extra spending money!

Money on here has dried up for me as well. Sometimes it's worth it to pay to be on one of the first few pages and sometimes it isn't. I have a few regs who I video chat with from time to time for extra money here and there, but it's nowhere near enough money to make a living on. I just use Phrendly for extra side money here and there.

I noticed more and more guys will ask where I'm from right away and will stop responding if I'm nowhere near them. A lot of guys seem to think this is a regular dating site and are insistent on meeting in person and don't want to spend money on pics. I'm 40 and you can't lie about your age on Phrendly either, so I think I'm too old for most of the men on there, even though I look good for my age.

It is so quiet here because there is a new Facebook Phrendly group with 400 members and more joining everyday. I was kicked out of it because a girl who I don't know at all, was rude to me 4 times so i finally blasted her. She kept saying that I didn't know what i was talking about over and over and that my post didn't make sense. etc. Obviously she was trying to put me down calling my girly, or make me angry. You don't do that 4 times otherwise and even after i said I wasn't there for conflict. Funny, support understood what i was saying right away when i asked them the same thing. But i now know why. Someone who posts here a lot or used to, obviously said something about me as the moderator said she is good friends with her and knows her well. I couldn't figure out why someone would attack me like that for a simple post saying nothing wrong.

i was told by the moderator that BOTH would get the same treatment. That was not the case but she was being totally fake i am not stupid about women.


Thank you to the one girl who was nice to me. You are beautiful not just on the outside but on the inside.

I may be older but what does age have to do with rudeness? as I was constantly insulted about my age,but it's sad that so many girls on Phrendly are such bitches. I would have given them credit to be better human beings than they are. Considering the business they are in to be nice to men to earn $.

That person above messages people to get information on them about their Phrendly account and then stops talking to them. There is a lot of gossip going on. I'm just posting this to warn people who go into that group and for people who continue to post here. It's mostly people in their 20s in the other group. If someone wants to be really sweet to you and wants to know things about your camscore, who you know, etc. just be careful.


To the ladies in the other group: Just be mature ladies! Your personalities suck!! And you are mothers most of you. So I can imagine what you treat clients like. And for the person who pumps you for your camscores and information, I didn't tell you much about myself that was true because I was onto you which is why i didn't email you for over a week at the end. All that crying that you have no friends because of the way you are to people. You are a good actress, I'll give you that! Oh I forgot I have your own words about how you treat clients. I believe you now!! And I won't be reading anything you come here and still post once in awhile!

I will mostly be reading not posting. I just don't have the will to deal with crap like people being nasty to other women doing the same job. I know there is competition but you don't have to be nasty there will always be a woman more beautiful than even the most beautiful woman in the world so jealousy and competition is for stupid people. There is one girl (the one above) who said she has to be #1 on the site because her mother made her that way. Well go be #1 in your wig and stop talking about me to people. And for the girl who kept posting nasty comments under my posts stop messaging me. Thank you.

How do you even know your camscore on Phrendly? I wasn't aware that they had camscores like MFC, unless you're talking about the mysterious Phrendly formula. I don't know exactly how they calculate that-all I know is high earnings and responding quickly to messages helps, and it hurts if someone blocks you or you don't respond within 24 hours. That's all I know.

I've had this happen to guys and they said they never tried calling me or video chatting me. It's annoying.

Why do these guys block you if you don't reply quickly? I got a message at 11PM when I was asleep. Woke up and tried to reply at 5AM and sure enough was greeted with "Darn! This person isn't reachable right now." I honestly think it's because they're so cheap they don't want you to reply when they're not horny anymore and consequently lose their $0.50. That is the message you get when you're blocked, right? Because whenever I message someone who has closed their account it says so in the error message.

I hate that too! I'll get a message at 4 am when I'm sleeping, and I'll be blocked if I write back at 8 am. I always figure they're horny and want to be replied back to immediately, but it's like damn, give me some time, dude! Same with dudes who want to video chat immediately-they always want it now instead of setting up a time. And it's always when I'm either out in public or just woke up and don't have my hair and makeup done.

It is frustrating! I figure the same, they're horny and want you to reply immediately. (These are also the type who will follow up with "?????" if you take longer than a minute to reply - lol). But I wonder why they think not responding quickly is a reason for blocking lol. That's my only theory ...they wanted your response then, and since you didn't give it within their desired timeframe, they're going to block you so you can't respond and take their $0.50 in the morning after their mood has come and gone.

I've found that weekend messages to support usually gets a reply after a couple of days so around Tuesday or even longer.

You didn't say what it was about specifically but between mentally unstable and time sensitive and how upsetting and disturbing it was I imagine there's a threat to himself (talking about suicide?) or someone else (talking about harming someone?)? I don't remember the fine print of Phrendly so I don't know what the protocol would be around privacy protection and reporting onwards to emergency services from Phrendly's side, however you should know that you can report directly to the police if you believe a crime has been committed or someone's life is in danger and give whatever details you have (including their username and time stamp of conversation on phrendly), and it would presumably be their job to get legal right of way to obtain further details from Phrendly to identify the person you were talking to if they deemed it serious/valid. Maybe there would be a difference too if you saw a crime happening on cam or if it was just something he said.

Not just after video chats specifically but it has randomly happened in the middle of high spenders on a gift spree in chat or after a voice call. It has happened a few times, quite some time ago. Not lately. I know of others it has happened to as well in the past. It's obvious that it's not someone who intentionally closed their account or blocked you at that moment because it will happen right in the middle of a conversation, someone you have great rapport with. I reported it at the time, they never had an explanation. I could always track the guys down in guys I starred (even though they were vanished from chat), but then when I would click their name from the starred page to re-open the chat I'd just get the message that their account has been closed. I bet you can find them in your starred pages too though obviously it takes some work to go through that to find them.

I have speculated that it's triggered by someone using a fraudulent card and they hit some limit and/or the card is reported but I don't know. Maybe it's just a bug and phrendly have no clue.

I asked them here awhile back if we could scrap our profile on here , close it & make a new one & was told no. Doesn't make sense if we are closing the old one. I'd be changing my age on the new one if they allowed us to make a new account. Any thoughts?

They just denied someone older from lowering their age yet.

There are so many 21 and 22, 24 yr olds now , everyone on the first 2 pages changed their ages.

Also Goth Barbie : about your clients disappearing, Please read my post below or PM me about it. Or contact me in wecamgirls as i will be using the Phrendly thread there more often.

If you'd like to know who was denied and who was approved to change ages, PM me as I'm not allowed to post the names here. You can also contact me elsewhere as I will probably be using a different medium to relay my honest posts in the future.
