Hi Suzie , I don't have anything to add, that I haven't already mentioned via email , but to anyone else wondering the same , I'll paste what I replied to your mail with here too ; -

You can cam aswell as phone, their pay used to be pretty low , like 25p a min kinder low ! but how busy they were made up for that , it was literally back to back in shows, and I found I didn't have to work as hard for shows there too - as in the camera could pretty much be at tits or pussy the whole time, and 10 guys would come and go before anyone would request a different position . Most guys loggin in are doing so through their phones.

xx


Umm , to be honest - I don't think it would be great for that (split camming ) , for 2 reasons ...... 1.) They're a phone service primarily - Ie, you can offer phone without cam , but you can't offer cam without phone . ( at least this is how it was back when I worked with them , years ago now )

Secondly , they make you wear these uber stupid head sets , which I'm going to ask about .

Their service did used to be too busy to split cam - and it used to be almost impossible , because your attention was literally eaten up on that site , I used to have pvt after pvt, with guys paying to spy too .... Not to mention the pixelating problems when splitcamming on there . ( might be fixed now )

I don't know how it's like now though , so you could give it a whirl , and let me know lol :-)

If you don't do audio anywhere else, you might get away with split camming it and doing your audio only on XP. xx

Hi,

I think you may be mixing us up with another service..! We only very recently added spy mode to our cams, so as well as the facts that I don't think we ever had a 25p rate for cam (phone chat, yes) and you have always been ableto do cam or phone or both, it sounds like another company (xcel)who used to get most of their traffic from 3g mobile phones. This wasn't us.

We don't really publish rates, for two reasons - firstly, they vary by currency and secondly, we have quite a few levels. However, I can say that when you exclude the impact of UK VAT, our top % rate for cam is comparable to or higher than all major sites.
However, because we also offer payment by phone, our end user rates are relatively fixed, so you don't have the same freedom to set rates that you get on some other sites. This is something we plan to change in the near future though.
For phone chat, you have two options - to include or exclude low rate calls. If you decide you want to only take high rate calls, you will get much lower volumes, because most callers are dialling cheap numbers. TBH, most hosts are happy to opt in and take all traffic, rather than have downtime. Others don't want to chat below a certain rate. It's all down to personal preference, in the same way that some cam girls are happy to sit in free chat for hours, and others won't do it at all.

Just to let all of you know, stay away from this company!! Yes the rates look shitty so most of you will avoid them anyway. I was using them as a side site. Then suddenly 2 months in, my traffic drops drastically and i'm earning less than half I was before. After 2 weeks of fobbing me off 'testing' they admit they raised the price per min guys have to pay to see me, and took away one of the main payment methods guys can buy credits to see me with WOW is all I can say. effectively they gave a paycut. I will be checking out the legality of this, but in the meantime I'd advise STAY AWAY! Cheapo heaven, and the company are con artists!

[BritishBecky]

Wow thanks for the warning!

[Imogene]

I cammed there in 2009 and loved it. I recently checked out the site and there have been many changes. With what I saw I could immediately see that the earning potential isn't what it used to be. *sigh*

[sexysusie]

You take or leave their rates.. for most girls it won't be worth it. My complaint is with the fact that they have changed the rate guys have to pay to see me (leaving MY cut the same!) and taken away a major payment method, which has directly led to a loss of traffic and therefore income for me. All without so much as a warning. It's bang out of order. Now I'm faced with the choice of leaving them, or sticking with it and having to waste some of my precious bandwith/ upload on them in the hope i may make some pennies

Oh now that pisses me the HELL off!

Ridiculous.

[cherryblossomsinspring]

Shady business deals. I was interested in them but when I found out how much they paid I decided it wasn't even worth it. I believe they pay more if you do both cam and phone but It's like $1.25 a min or something. I can't remember exactly but it was way too little for the amount of work and dedication they required.

[nadia29]

I was ok with the pay at level 5 before they changed to these variable cam rates. Now I am more expensive to my customer and I make less per min. The most shocking of all is that I only get .15 usd cents per min more in exclusive chat yet they are charging the customer .70 in pound sterling!! I think they think we wouldn't notice!

[sexysusie]

That's exactly right Nadia! OMG I can't believe it. I thought it only happened to me. Looks like they are fucking ALL of us over!

[Melodie]

That is bullshit
Sorry guys!

[nadia29]

That's exactly right Nadia! OMG I can't believe it. I thought it only happened to me. Looks like they are fucking ALL of us over!

If you think it's bad for us, imagine the girls at lower levels! They must be getting fucked big time! Wonder what they are making per min.

Also, besides the price thing, the whole platform is bad in general. Tech support sucks and doesn't follow up and I've been told that all the cams move slow. I have checked my cam feed by going into free and it is slow! I don't see how they expect guys to keep paying for that.

And one more thing that drives me nut on that site is I can't seem to have my speakers and my mic on at the same time without getting horrible feedback. I'm talking about when I am just waiting for a chat not even using 2 way audio.

[nadia29]

What pisses me off the most is them sending out that mail telling us how much better it was gonna be and how much money we would make with the new rates. Also loved the mail a week later that said they were taking away the hourly online bonus cuz we would all be making so much more money! Double fuck!!

[sexysusie]

WTF? I didn't get the mail about losing the bonus!

I know! The girls on there are ridiculous. I have actually mailed a few of them because not only were they using the lowest rock bottom prices possible, they are also offering FREE cam and phone chat!!! *Head/ Desk*

The thing I don't understand is, why limit themselves like this? If we make more (those of us that know what the hell we're doing WILL make more!), then THEY make more!

[nadia29]

I know it was nice little bonus! Here is the email:

Recently you have been enabled for Variable web-cam rates, the rates in the fees sheet have already been provided. You may have noticed that as a result of this we no longer pay an hourly log on payment, since you have greater flexibility to increase your earnings without this.

This is effective as of now.

[nadia29]

Double post

[Vlodina]

I never got that email either... Mmm...

I can't really comment on anything else, as I have barely worked anywhere since Thurs daytime. My birthday just went on and on... Bad me.

[nadia29]

I wonder if they took it away from some and not others then. That's even more shady! And without any warning!

[fatoldbroad]

I have posted and not been able to get an answer as to how long it takes to move up levels. I just recently started doing phone and I just can't afford to do it for so little. I am going to have to cancel.

[whirlerz]

Nvr did camming, but I despise their phone service..

are you currently active on pones here r just a prior bad expeience? I am def in the despise mode and it has only been a week.

[whirlerz]

No. I worked for them awhile, like 3 yrs..I mean worked my ass off too, many, many hours (which I know is standard for phone but still). I went thru a huge extreme crisis & they treated me like crap. One time, a mgr called me up screaming about some mistake I made, I had a temp gig I was supposed to go to early that day, I was trying to work the phone late & they upset me so bad I couldn't do that either..I stand by what I say.
I considered doing cam w/them, & I don't remember why I nvr did it, seemed like a hassle tho.
Have you looked in other work section? There's a lot of pso threads, some are old. Textilicious is a texting/phone forum, & there's some phone forums but right now I can't think of any..

Yeah I did but to be hhonest I think just the fact that nobody is working that site anymore is a tell.

[sexysusie]

They are a scummy company.
