Hello AsianLulu :)


I'm sorry to hear you're unable to pay with your prepaid card. We have been informed by a few users their payments were declined by the payment provider, Pockit.

If you still wish to use a prepaid card there are couple of cards we can recommend:
https://www.cashplus.com/
https://www.sparkprepaid.com/

I hope this helps you.

Ok, will look into those cards.

How about the monthly payment option like before? As paying weekly is very expensive?

Why not (as the drop down boxes already have prices for different options) a simple option to choose weekly price or monthly price? So we can pay easily monthly on line (ie a choice?)? Is there a way to pay monthly?

I've not advertised since the reported price rises, simply because I'm doing fine from regulars and other websites. No point paying if I don't have the capacity either for enquiries or actual bookings.

I notice they've not addressed or explained the overnight 25% price rise that nobody was warned about. We've already had the one about how the section needs more moderation so it takes longer, followed by the one about how they now had robot mods so it was quicker and easier (and you'd think, cheaper).

Even the greedy bastards at the power companies warn customers about a massive price rise before they do it. I wonder how long my customers would hang about if I did? :D

They are pretty shit I use it as a back up and I get a few decent customers from it so it's worth it
wheh my Add was removed a few weeks ago ( the same add that I have used for years just copy and paste it) they couldn't tell me why or what was wrong with it . I had to get quite shity with them to get it sorted
Then they have the nerve to send me a customer satisfaction form 😂



😀Amy, they are probably thinking that if Sesta /Fosta laws or something similar come into shape they need to screw as much money as possible out of us for as long as they can until they have  to remove us
I bet This won't be the last increase this year   
I don't know if any other sections on Viva Shit actually have paid for sections unless and if they do it's probably nowhere near the cost of what we Escorts pay
So if they lose the Escort section that's a shit load of very easy money gone overnight for Viva Shit

I've just had a quick look in my area they've increased the fee for a basic advert from £9.99 for 7 days, to £12.99. Adding a website link has stayed the same at an additional £2.99. I used to pay £12.98 for 7 days basic ad + link, that will now cost £15.97. This makes them more expensive than quite a few paid directories, and just as expensive as some of the very big names.......perhaps VS is that important to some people ???

If I need it I will renew, but for now I don't and yes it's cheek - my power company have just sent a letter to inform of price rises.

I don't think any of the other sections have to pay, no. Apparently this is because our ads takes ages to check and moderate and no other ads do, so the answer might be to just bung your ad on a page where people are selling garden sheds and see how long it takes them to notice :D.

If they do, then you'll know they're talking out of their arse. Everybody else, regardless of what they're offering, gets a freeb which is in least in part funded by the massive amounts generated by the prossie ads. So it won't do the rest of their advertisers any favours, either - God forbid a plumber or a hairdresser might have to stick their hand in their pocket.

Mine too, so we have the option to try and cut back on usage or just switch because we've had some forewarning. I think it's called customer service :).

Nah it's just that it ranks well on Google. ( well it will until Sara Champion gets her way )
 IF you do local ES AT & show your number on AW thats about £10 a day but at least you can pay by the day

AT isn't worth it for me I do always display phone number, and buy the occasional feature out most of this comes out of PG proceeds which means most of the time it doesn't technically cost me anything. VS on the other hand has to be funded entirely by myself.

Hello AsianLulu :)

So still no reply on monthly options? Increasing weekly amounts compounds that increase to   x4.33 for the monthly amounts now. Why not give us choice to pay monthly with discount like every other place does? Seems an unnecessary way to take advantage of us.

If this continues I will just focus on paying more SEO and marketing for my websites that already generate more clients than Viva. Viva has just been a side alternative option.

VS did once have a monthly option.
