Hi,

Yes, any thing receive through the AW system takes 35% off if you cash it in rather than using it on the site.

I have taken webcam deposits but have asked them the gross it up, (as a timewaster premium!).  I only take about ?20 through so that is a ?30 webcam.  Plus make sure they put it as the right amount of time for the webcam.. I had mine reversed as it looked like a credit transfer , (hmm yes), which is against the rules.

You can also accept AW vouchers.

Alternatively search this site as there are many other ways of accepting deposits re pre-paid credit cards etc.  I am a luddite so cannot for the life of me understand that so AW does provide a service for me.

People may dislike AW and it may take an admin fee but no other site can help you get cash up front and check their ratings at the same time.  OR allow feedback if they waste your time!

Hi there

AW only take 35% on directcam, they actually take 30% on everything else.
Directchat is 30% + 15p per min deduction, but anyway.. I'm digressing..

The best thing to do would be to get yourself a pre-paid credit card such as Splash or Optimum, the client can then purchase an e360 voucher at any paypoint, then text you the code, you update your card and bob's your uncle, you have your deposit.  The administrative cost of them making this payment is usually no more than 3%, now compare that to AW's wopping 30% and there's no comparison.

I've ordered a pre-paid credit card arriving in a few days solely for this purpose.  I'm then going to ask zero feedback, those without escort feedback, etc for a 30% deposit.

?20 deposit may not be enough of a deterrent for TW's.

Good luck whatever you decide  :)

I have one for booking hotels and things, but I bought it for cash in a paper shop rather than order it online - it was for when I was going to Aberdeen when all the bother was on and I needed to be untraceable  ;D. I've never actually tried topping it up as I've never used it to pay for anything, but as far as I can tell it's pretty straightforward.

I get my deposits sent as Amazon vouchers (and have got most of my Christmas shopping done  :D).

I was wondering what people think about aw clients who have never seen other girls before, i am getting alot of these, and i am dubious, it concerns me that i can not see ratings to see if they have a good reputation or not, do you think they still deserve a chance?? 

What if a guy has been with AW for a few years and yet it says he has not seen anyone before emailing?

Do you mean the guy has no feedback? Or is there some other way of knowing how many escorts he's seen?!

If he has no feedback, he might've only punted a few times with someone like me who doesn't demand a booking request and/or feedback for every appointment. I find it easy enough to weed out timewasters and I have a very limited schedule, so I really don't need guys sending me bloody random booking requests for times I can't make.

I know this isn't very helpful to other women on AW, though. :-\ Do you have plenty of your own anti-timewaster procedures in place? I demand totally sane, polite and non-pervy emails and then at least two phonecalls at times I've designated. Again, they must be polite and non-pervy.

I honestly do find that 99% of timewasters, creeps and idiots fall down at one of these hurdles; usually the first one! It's easiest to just let these guys fall over their own feet... They won't be able to resist a, "So, what will you be wearing?" or an "R u gna lick my ass?" or being totally vague and annoying or way too specific in the detail regarding their own penis. Any rudeness or pushyness ("Why can't you see me NOW?") is equally self-incriminating.

Then, once they've revealed their true nature, you can just smile and click the block button cos they have just cancelled their own appointment with you - how kind of them to let you know in advance, eh? ;)

If it all sounds rather harsh, I do like to point out that all the clients I do see have absolutely no problems being polite and respectful, and following my instructions, and not trying to show me pictures of their penis and get some free jollies from an unwilling participant (ie harassment), so I simply see no reason for our standards to be any less than high. Our job should only really start once the paid appointment has begun - if you find yourself going 'urgh' when dealing with bad manners and pervy crap or timewasting from anyone, he's a total waste of your energy which you need for the nice, genuine guys, so cut the bad'uns loose asap! In my experience, you can never be too un-lenient. ;D
