    Default Thinking about signing up with AdultWork?

    So lately I've been thinking about signing up with AdultWork but I have a few questions/concerns that I was hoping you ladies could help me out with!
    I've read through a couple of threads on the site but I'm still in need of a little help!
    I hear that their bank transfer fee is 30% and they make it sounds like that is the only fee. Is it or are they just being sneaky? lol
    I was also wondering how the traffic for camming/SMS messaging was. Is SMS messaging traffic just dead? Or is there some money to be made there? I'm also wondering about videos, galleries and the market place. Basically, I guess I'm looking for some insight into traffic on there!

    There is a fee for using the cam/SMS software that it taken out of each time you get a private (its a %). They also have like a 4 week delay for payments (for US bank accounts). Traffic is pretty slow, sometimes at best maybe medium. Its definitely slowed down for everyone in the last couple months. Some girls (myself included) some days don't even get 1 guy coming into a private. The site seems to have a lot of issues, and what sucks if they have no email or customer service # so you can't contact them to find out information. I just like that they don't plaster you all over the internet against your wishes like Streamate does. And I like that they don't pretty much require shows in free chat like MFC. But its very slow overall.

    SMS is dead yes. In a year on there I have had about 20 texts, all from the same person who is a regular of mine and was just looking to see when i'm next online lol. Fee is generally 30%, but phone fee is hard to keep track of as it's run by a separate company and their fee varies. There is a 4 week delay, but once you're through this, pay is fortnightly, on the dot like clockwork. You can also sign up with dailypay. The site is complex and takes a little getting used to navigating around, simply because you can do so much on there (cam, phone, im, sms, escort, pictures, videos). Contacting them, is as Glamour pointed out, a little frustrating, but if you are having real issues you can just go to the help section, open a help topic, close the little window that pops up, then it asks you if the information helped, click no and it takes you to a form you can send a quicker

    It's not at all slow for me in UK, but some US girls seem to find it a little slow.
    Thank you!
    One reason that I wanted to sign up is because I heard there were a lot of customers in Europe (I'm in the US) and was hoping this would allow me to cam a little earlier but still be a good time for those in Europe. Does my location have something to do with potential traffic? Or is it because a lot of US girls are camming when those in Europe are sleeping?

    I don't know to be honest. I don't do well on SM or MFC whereas US girls seem to so i can only assume guys tend to prefer girls from their own country/ accent. I know most of the girls on here try to vary their schedule and test out other time zones as well so I'd suggest doing this, don't just stick to the times you normally work OR the times you think UK guys will be on as they could be watching a footie match (very likely over here lol) or be out drinking etc.

    I've noticed that with the site being largely UK guys, they have a tendency to go for UK girls as they're obsessed with 'meeting' us, much like US guys love US girls because they dream of the same
