Y not well I figured I might as well raise my rates to deter them from getting so many shows and get more shows on SM where there are no chargebacks or dicking around with your paycheck..lol

I've been with cams.com for many years- they shorted my last check as well, and then I got a random chargeback, both were explained to me as being "glitches", I just see it as money being taken out of my pocket. Switched to another site and I haven't looked back.
Yea since last Friday's chargeback I haven't been back.... Might I mention I after the chargeback I also ended up paying to have a show with him!!! Yea by 0.50 cents !!!!!! After all the fees ....fuck that I raised all my prices to the min 5.99/ min on all sites ...even Imlive..and somehow those guys are willing to pay but not cams guyss
I stopped camming on there due to the super cheap guys that were unwilling to pay a 4.99 rate. They are so needy and want you to cater to them way too much. My SM guys have no problem paying my 5.99/6.99 so I don't miss cams at all. Plus the chargeback thing is ridiculous >:( 29% is already bad enough and to have them skim from your check due to "glitches" is just bullshit.
Well after raising my rate to $6.99 per min on here I made more money yesterday than I did on SM which is at $7.99 who would of thunk.. give it a try and be patient. The last few days they have been paying it.. I have a few guys who are bold enough to comment on my high rate but I pay them no mind.. those guys never dropped a dime.
I don't want to leave cams because the traffic is so much better than SM. I called yesterday and a complaint was filed, I explained that I need to know how much my earnings will be and not suprise with charge back. I also informed how much business I bring them , and that on livejasmin which has the same pay structure after 3 payperiod with no disiplinary action you are protected from charge backs. I was told Alot of models are giving the same feedback. I'm going to try raising my rates and see how it goes. Wish me luck.
Shit, I was having a really good Saturday on Cams and now the site went down...WTF. I hope I can get back on.....
Got back on 2 hours later and no one would take me private and had shitty traffic, then I noticed my placement was down....kinda pissed now :(
Ok, I'm really not happy....for some reason my placement really dropped...I went from 23-40 on first page to hovering between 70-90 I guess on the second page and now my traffic sucks and its really hard to get shows now. Did my new girl status suddenly end....I joined 2 months ago. I was also away for almost 3 weeks because of that stupid situation with the rash and my sprained ankle...couldn't help that.....what effects your placement there? Is it earnings per hour or how many hours you put in? I also had 10 fan club members when I started out and now I'm down to 2( I guess they just buy a month's subscription). I was on for 2 hours today and made $23 I just wanna cry :(
Ok apparently placement is based on hours....cuz now that I've been on a bit more and got 2 new fanclub members yesterday I'm back on page one....whew.
I've been dealing with almost all the issues i've been reading here lately and i guess that's the main reason why i joined the forum. I've been calling the support weekly lately,after mailing them too many times and getting replies that seemed to be automatic . I suggest you should call them for all the issues you're having , they are very friendly on the phone ( won't solve your problem probably but it's still something than nothing ) . I've seen models posting on cams about chargebacks so if they get more phonecalls maybe they would do something about the politics of it ? I've noticed it got worse and worse lately with the traffic and the new tipping chat has the minimum payment too low for the members expectations. soon enough everyone will ask us to go tipping chat instead of going private.
Stay strong ladies and have a great week !:-*
I am one of the models that called to complain about the chargebacks, I too am hoping they will change that. I havent been on much since because it gave me a bad attitude. In reguards to the tipping I bet it will take over like the gold shows on SM, which sucks!!! Looks like I will have to get back on and give it a go. Wish you a great week as well!
I went back yesterday...after leaving from a hefty chargeback... I need all the money rit now I can get.. I got like I really good private like 77$ so I hope he doesn't chargeback..we spent the whole time just talking :D I'm at 5.99 but he joined my fan club for 2.99/min but I don't mind since we just chatted...which reminds me..why is my fan club 2.99????? Lol I need to raise that to a min 3.99
I've noticed there are good days and bad days, but lately all got really slow. do you ladies think the NFL affects it too ? I don't know much about it since I am not from US. my fanclub price is also 2,99 and i've been thinking about increasing it. what keeps me from doing it is the fear of regular fans complaining about it and losing them as customers.
Well, I emailed support to change me back to the old payment system and take me off of tier because I was afraid of getting chargebacks. They emailed me back rather quickly saying that they took me off tier and it will go into effect for the next payment cycle. I haven't even cammed there for fear of getting chargebacks so hopefully this helps. Gotta keep Cams around just in case I decide to leave SM at some point lol.
It's not the new tier program it's there new chargeback policy that was changed right around the same time as the tier program. It says we the models have to cover any chargeback so from fraud
I did that too, mailed them asking why did i get less . they replied, saying they know about the issue. then yesterday i called them asking about the chargebacks and other features. when i mentioned about the difference in payment they said it was an error but the amount i was paid was the correct one. So we won't see that money from them >:(
Anyone still having problems with people not getting charged for being in Nude Chat? I had someone (a member with funds) come into my Nude Chat. When he left it didn't say the usual "XXX has left" or whatever it says so I knew right away he wasn't charged. Someone came in right after him. I screenshot it and logged off. I went to email support and noticed that the one I screenshot actually did get charged. Of course. I've emailed them 3 times about it but they always ask for a screenshot. I'm always splitting when I'm on Cams so I can't stop what I'm doing and get a screenshot. (I don't want them to know I'm splitting though so I can't tell them this is the reason I don't have a screenshot.) I went to double check my Nude Chat settings and make sure it didn't get changed to tipping chat and the Nude Chat settings link isn't there anymore.
I make a good chunk of my Cams.com earnings from being in Nude Chat while in private on SM. This sucks having to log off now when I get a show on SM.
