I wish Streamate would for once and for all fix these fucking 'dick errors' so my shows would last long.




God for-fucknig-bid that I actually be able to stream a smooth broadcast. So many regs came and went today because my broadcast was shit. So, the usual. Guess I'm gonna start the week off not making my goal, thanks SM, you fucking suck.








I now applied for a check via regular mail on Streamate. I have never done a check!! So I'm very stressed out. I also heard they can go lost?? I still applied for one cuz my bills are due and idk how to get my money anymore...My parents start to question me like Where's your money at?? well that's a good question, since FCP shut down for SWs it's been hard for many of us anyways.
Does someone know how to get the money out of the check?? At the local bank or...? Cuz I have 0 ideas how this works!!
The checks are from a wellsfargo account.
you can cash them there. i think there is a 5.00 fee if you're not a member
I deposit mine the same day of receiving it and instant credit, never had a issue with one lost. I had them show up 1-2 days late bc of holidays but never lost in the mail.
I have received checks from sm since day 1, I never switched my WL to transfer to my bank and they have been on time. When I move, i have sm hold it.
it sucks we had switch back but then again I always thought in the back of my head that once it leaves streamate they are no longer responsible unless it is a check. We can get new ones by waiting 30days or paying a reissue fee
luckily some of us dodged that bullet from FC closing by one day.

I see u are in europe too, u should mention ur location when asking about paying options cause american girls have it easier with checks.
U'll have to deposit the check to a bank where u need an account in US dollars, it can take up to 45 days for the check to clear so u get ur money and u'll pay a comission as processing fees also plus the taxes for having a bank account; this depends a lot on the country u are from but here in eastern europe in my country that's the procedure.
I cant deal with checks, too much hassle and veeery inconvenient, thanks god SM offers us Cosmo pay, have u looked into Cosmo? It's similar to First Choice.




Checks are a pain in the ass for Eastern Europe. Some banks don't even accept them and if they do, it take a few good weeks to receive the money.
Maybe Cosmo or EFT transfer from Paxum into your local account would be better. Keep in mind that takes around 10 days to receive the Paxum money.





^^^ Most banks refuse them yes, forgot to mention. I dont even know if they'll accept them at all now a days cause i dont think models in this region opted for checks anymore since electronic payment was introduced on SM (and other sites). Checks are mainly used by american girls from what i know.







As if traffic werent bad enough this week, theres a contest coming Sunday-Tuesday.....so glad im gonna be out of town for that one so i have an excuse to not sit online staring at myself for 6 hours a day through that shit.





I think i seen ur country on the list but cant see the list anymore as my account is approved already and they dont list the countries anywhere for me to see.
When u try to register with them it says its available for european countries part of the EEA, go ahead and see if they have ur country on the list.

wow, wherever SM is getting their traffic tonight is douchebag central... just a massive influx of illiterate horny morons. plus new guys who are cheap as fuck. i had multiple dudes questioning why they should spend any money on me; it was like they were dangling a fucking single dollar bill in front of my face and trying to get me to do a trick for it or something.
fuck this. i'm out. making clips instead. >_<









I'm happy that you're going out of town for this shit show of a weekend coming up.
Memorial Day has always been my slowest time in all 7 years of working it.
I have no idea where all the shitty freeloaders come from during this holiday.
The only thing that makes it good, is that it mentally prepares me for the summer slowdown that immediately follows it.
* Speaking for only myself in the above statements, because I'm sure summer is the best time for others to cam.




Contests are a mask for working at the website. They usually implement and test things during that time, while girls hustle even if it's full of errors. Win win. This weekend is a free day, maybe more customers, maybe more part time vanilla working models.
I'm sure 50K is nothing for them, dust in the wind, probably money customers spend on 5-6 good models in a week. Plus, contest means is going to be more than an average week, so might seem a lot of money for us, but they take 65-70% of what we do.
They are a company, they keep stats, they have a manager for that department (I can bet), employees that check for frauds and analyze the profitability. If contests wouldn't bring profits, they wouldn't run them so often.
I'm at the point where I don't blame SM that much anymore. It's a lot of hard work to bring updates again and again, now they are working on SMConnect, the tip vibe option, mobile version, more payment ideas and God know what's extra. Losing money it's not easy, let's remember again they lose more than us.




I wish SM would catch tf up and offer Direct Deposit. Its Wed. and my check hasn't come when its 99% of the time here on Monday, full on stressing me out bc im going out of town for a mini vacay this weekend and that's my vacay money.





As soon as a contest is announced the traffic disappears, my room is simply dead!
Before, during and after a contest i have no traffic anymore and struggle soo much to make money.
I am tired of this up and down roller coaster SM!(((
Oh, then SM gives "test tip vibes" to their favorite models to try. I love when SM plays favorites. They can ram their tip vibe and ugly gold chain up their asses.
They always do this, only top earners and some other models who kiss their asses get this stuff. They also send out hand written thank you cards to their top earners. Like thank you, but no thanks to everybody else who works hard on the site.

it’ll always be that way because they (as well as all other industries) have to keep their top earners happy. the “average” earner is simply a bottom feeder in their eyes. adult as well as any other industry is more than likely a revolving door so when 1 leaves 10 more newer, younger and bright eyed “girl next doors” sign up in hopes of popularity, riches and diamonds. but the top top, elite, power players will always get the best treatment, including gifts, all the traffic during contest time and goodness knows what else. i’ve been around a very very long time so i’m not speaking out of my ass or trying to be negative but simply sharing what i know. xox
