But - password by phone is a great alternative to have in addition to direct debit (have to write that, or Tanja will not like me anymore :D )
No - honestly - it is a great addition and an alternative for people who don't want to use their bank account - even if at the end his phonebill will be paid per direct debit ;)

Have a good one

Tanja might get angry huh? The very same "Tanja" who helped mismanage Goodthinxx and conveniently never paid hundreds of webmasters?
Now she is with a new company, and it's simply ok for her to jump back in the biz despite all the webmasters that were burned?

Do a search on this board for "goodthinxx" and learn about how well that project ended up.

I don't get it, what's with these non payers who jump from company to company and never get called out.
Then webmasters act surprised when the shiny new company falters and people get left without payment of course, when everything is going well and webmasters are getting paid, people like Tanja speak on panels, hob knob at the shows, have PR articles written up about them
and bask in the limelight. Then once everything falls apart , they have some BS excuse that exonerates then from the responsibility of paying webmasters.

And that leads to another question: why do companies hire people or associate themselves with people who have a history of non payment to webmasters?
What does that say about a companies that hire these people?

Maybe passwordbyphone will pay me the money I am owed , as well as the other webmasters who were never paid by Goodthinxx?

I say take it out of the fat salary you are probably paying "Tanja" , or are we afraid that "Tanja might get angry" ?
