Did you not get an email from them? They sent me one the week they blurred out the services.

No

No. I have my viva email connected to my work phone so nothing came through from them even checked spam junk mail zero.

They didn't charge for advertising last time they did this I don't think. I don't advertise with them anymore so not sure if it's the same this time. 🤔

They are charging, also charged me first time despite telling me renewal would be free.

Their webcam and phone chat is dead for me, just hoping the ad gains me some private webcam and phone chat bookings.

I've been using VS for the last few months as it seems to bring me good enquiries in my home city. (I still filter the calls through an old burner phone tho.)

This week they sent me a text about Black Friday deals but you had to call or whatsapp them to get it. I duly Whatsapped. The person I spoke with then quoted me a HIGHER price than I would normally pay! Then just disappeared when I questioned it.
And me, I am not a mess, I am a wilderness, yes

It’s a mobile number right. It looks like a text from Viva but it’s not. I’ve had loads of them, either claiming to be promotions, or saying my ad will run out in X amount of time (when it’s always run out anyway). I tried calling it once, it rang and rang, no one picked up and if I remember rightly not even a proper VM message.

It’s some kind of scam I think, don’t know how or why, but Viva always emails as far as I know and their number is a landline.

I did report it on Client Eye and tried to report it here under warnings but I guess that’s just for bad punters.

I recieved an email of that Black Friday  Deal that included a mobile number and I thought to myself they are rather pushy when  all adverts the info and rates are blurred. I ignored it.

Vivastreet have asked for a whole host of information to verify me after a day if advertising.
Why? And should I send it?

I've moved this here TML, because Vivastreet can reply on this thread :)

What have they asked for? I've never heard of them doing this.

Yes, stuff like that belongs in this thread so people using VS are more likely to see it (just like the Adultwork scam emails/texts one) :).

Has anyone else had a problem with reaching cash out threshold for VS cams over the last 2 months?

I have just received a response to an email I sent regards this, they basically say it's out of their control and no offer to let me withdraw funds. At this current rate it'll take until Christmas to reach their £50 threshold, that'll be 10 weeks.

I like how they keep advertising free trials for premium ads on new sign ups but still charge you after you sign up and try and give you the run around when you call them.  ::) ::) ::) ::)

Neither have I and considering all the advert prices & bio description are blocked off, I wouldn't bother with them myself. Info blocked off because of lockdown? We aren't in a lockdown... ???

I tried to post an advert on VivaStreet this morning but whatever I try it runs some kind of automated check and tells me that the photos I uploaded are "against the terms of service". But it doesn't tell me HOW they are against the TOS.

I'm kind of perplexed; the photos I uploaded are fairly innocuous - just me in a jock strap from the front. There is no photos with my wang out like I've got on my SleepyBoy profile, and looking in the "Gay Escorts" area on Viva, there appear to be plenty of other ads showing a similar amount of flesh.

Its annoying; its like they don't want my money  :FF :FF :FF

I had the same problem despite my pics not being x-rated sensual bikini shots.
So instead I called them up viva and spoke to an agent and made sure the agent was on the phone when uploading pics. The agent told me it's their new updated system so to upload one pic then do the paid add and then add another one by one and you see which image they reject.
I made sure this was done while on phone with the vivastreet agent.
