I am now charging $20 for ICQs.
 

I get ICQ'd frequently. Usually with lots of questions and advice. In order to be able to handle these better I will now be requiring a $20 retainer paid in advance by paypal before I reply to further ICQ's. The rate will be $20 per ICQ week. Phonecalls will be $150 per hour. Emails will run $50 per month. Business hours are Monday through Thursday from Noon to 5pm EST.

You aren't even up from noon to 5 pm.

I'm going to start charging like an attorney. Fuckers cost me like $65 just for a 5 minute phone call to see if I would need to come in or not. WTF kind of bullshit is that ?

If I'm not up at Noon to 5pm, I'm saving you money !!

Let me guess .. They wanted you to come in after charging you $65 to tell you that.

It's worth it.. ;)

:1orglaugh :thumbsup

yeah an attoney is for sure not the best friend of your wallet lol. they earn way to much :)

A big problem with charging such fees is fraud - yes, some folks will actually pay the $20 per use ... but some of them won't like the advice, etc and/or are just scammers and then dispute the $20 or more they paid...

Get enough disputes and your PayPal account is suspended; may be anyways way before that if PayPal feel it's being used for sale of adult oriented services, or even merely associated with adult.
