So I'm going through some of my reviews here, and I find av9898, a good site that I promote via CCBill now has a new webmaster URL etc, so I check it out. I see they have Nats now, but my ccbill codes are working so whatever. I just wanted some fresh pictures.

Anyways I looked at their join form, and it says they'll only pay through Paypal, and there's a TEN dollar fee... I don't have a single sponsor that pays me by Paypal to begin with, but then ten dollars? What the fuck are they thinking?

Then I checked a new site submission we received, and I see they're using Nats as well (http://www.adultrealcash.com).

Check fee - $6
Courier fee - $50
Epassporte - $4
Intl Wire - $35
Paypal $4 or 5% (?...)
US Wire $18
WebMoney - $4 or 2.5%

On a $50 min payout, $4 is EIGHT percent! I prefer to get checks too, so that would be 12%...

I mean I couldn't list these sites if I wanted to.

I also "found" around $700 by logging in to 2 sponsors yesterday who for whatever reason weren't paying on time. Sands from ETU Cash got right back to me, and the payment type wasn't setup properly, so props there.

Really gotta do regular checkups on all your sponsors, it's worth money nowadays.

Also I'm seriously gonna have to consider implementing my own fuckin terms and conditions and policies.. I'm sick of losing money to these greedy payment fees, paying money to get paid.. as if I don't pay enough in bank fees already or something
