    Default IMLive CB avoidance?

    Is there any way to avoid the cb's on IMLive or minimise them? I was thinking of only doing really short shows, keeping them very tame, and reserving toys/ fetish/ longer privates etc for guys who have cammed with me a few times before. And why exactly are hof girls protected from cb's but no other girls?? That just proves they could cover cb's if they wanted to, surely they're on shaky legal ground with that?

    This is nothing to do with your question, but just further info. Imlive charges UK guys in £ but pays us in $ as if £1 = $1. So, say a guy pays 4.80 POUNDS per min, we only get 30% of 4.80 DOLLARS. This reason alone prevents me from working there.

    Yeah I noticed the same thing , regarding the UK currency --- and to make matters better , if you ask them about it , they have a tendency to boot you off the site :-) LOL

    So if a guy is buying in £ we're getting about 16%

    I just went through the sign up process and got to the part about earnings - 0.98 cents during the 90 min initial period, then 1.98, and after that you can change your rates DEPENDING ON YOUR RATING!!! Whose fucking bright idea was that?? UK girls would have to charge at least $6 just to make £1 per min, and you can only do that (well not even that as their top rate is 5.80) IF you have a 5 star rating!!

    I closed the sign up page after that lol

    I try not to worry too much about CBs. I don't get them often, and I'd hate to give a mediocre show due to CB paranoia, because that could drive away what WOULD have been a repeat customer. So I just do the show as normal and cross my fingers that I get that money. 9 times out of 10 the guy is legit, and I won't get a CB.

    ImLive has been advertising 'no chargebacks for the entire month of September', which is nice. But it's too bad they won't be cb-free ALL THE TIME, you know?

    The girls on the ImLive forums say that a lot of the guys with tons of numbers in their screen names (for example, bob666555444) are known for doing CBs. I guess those guys with the lame-ass screen names join the site with the intention of getting FREE shows, so they don't put much thought or effort into their names.

    Their no CB periods are a con - They hit you with the CBs once the 'period ' is over . What REALLY FUCKING pisses me off , is the fact that their CBs are NOT 100% genuine , I have had CBs on there from regs who I knew 100% had not charged back , and they had funds deducted . When I've mailed in , alongside the customer , to verify that I know the guy and he was charged , yet I wasn't paid .. they've simply written back 'we apologise for the mistake, your account will be rectified before the next pay period ' and within minutes the CB is reversed ! Mistake my fat ass .

    I mainly work on ImLive and I've had 2 CBs in the two years I've been there.
    One was during the 'supposed' no CB period...which confused the hell outta me. This made no sense.
    I look at the forum on imlive a good bit and see girls confused and frustrated as to the amount of cb's they do get. I will say that with every show I do, I do the best I can and before I go private, I make sure that the guest has a clear understanding of what kind of show they want. I do this, personally, because I do fetish/Domme shows and a lot of guys will pop directly into private thinking I'm submissive and start ordering me around.

    Now I'm not saying that's why girls get CB's...but I think that's what lessens my chances of getting them for myself. Hope no one takes that the wrong way.

    What kills me is I learned some information about CBs and the fact that sites allow them so often is perplexing.
    Everytime someone opens a case for this the website HAS to pay $40 just because someone asked for their money back. That alone is shitty but that's how CC systems work because the bank or credit company has to look into it also.

    Then whatever money the site and the girl made is potentially refunded. For me, I don't see why the site doesn't fight harder to prevent CBs on their end such as having limits for first time buyers and also if a user makes 3 CBs to freeze their account because its highly likely that's some dude trying to get freebies.

    ImLive customer service can be total shit at times and their CB policy is an example of this to me. However that site has some of my main regulars so I get a bit torn on what to do. Oh ImLive, how I love to hate you...

    Not to be off topic but this would be a significant help...I think that a girls ratings should allow her a better earning percentage also. At LEAST 40%. At this point ImLive could afford it. It's also impossible to get affiliate members it seems because ImLive covers so many other sites. What a pain. I've only gotten that ONCE despite having guys create new memberships. They make it really convoluted. Erg...

    IMO the working on sites with CB is a gamble. Sites with CBs dont disclose information to the models about how they handle chargebacks so alot of shady shit goes on. Some models get hit with tons while others hardly get any. Some like ukmissy described get hit with bogus CBs and can get them reversed, while another model might have the same complaint and get told to bugger off.

    You really wont know until you try where youre going to fit in. You might be one of the lucky ones who gets no chargebacks or just one every few months. Or you could be one of the accounts for whatever reason seems to keepp getting 'hit' with them. I personally believe if your account keeps getting slammed with CBs its not the models fault, that its got to be something on the computers end assigning them to her account, because how could one girl be such a magnet for scammers and losers?

    So yeah IMlive is worth a try. But if you get a good regular who happens to be from the UK, it might be worth it to convert him over to different site because of their billing practices.

    Actually that's not a bad idea annabellz. Since I'd have to be charging absolute top whack to even make £1 per min my end, he'd actually be better off seeing me on my main site, which would cost him less
