Epassporte - still lame after all these years - Page 2

pc · 2008-10-26, 09:21 AM

Only problem I had is that they totally mixed up my login, password and name on a debit card when I was signing for it.Other than that is all good.

I love epassporte, use it all the time with no problems.

The $30 fee isn't all that great, but with the way we receive payments from lots of companies it is much more convenient than waiting for wires or dealing with checks, and better than using paypal which isn't ok for adult stuff anyways now.

I pray they never go away.

Besides hes off shooting movies about this business in hopes of rewriting history...

My comments in that thread remain the same - that "rewriting history" is what rang my bell.

Maybe Gonzo can stop back & fill us all in, seeing as I don't get out enough to know what's really going on

I think this sums it up.

"There were 7 people in that movie & the only one I know is Sweet T. Who are these people!?!?!?

Where's Fantasy Man? RB? Webfather? Serge? Lensman? PK? Jim? I'm serious. I've been here since 96, so it's not like I just got here & I'm scratching my head as to who these "early days of the online adult entertainment industry" could be."

Hell where is GreenGuy or Richard for that matter.
Some people will run around and tell you they invented or origninated everything on the net in this biz from AVS to popups.

Ocassionally Robin Nixon argues with Timon on that fact.

Recently, I applied for a business account. It took 2 weeks for them to send me the application paperwork (even though their website says I should receive this within a day or two)

Then it took them a week or two to review it.

Then, my application was declined and they will not tell me why.

Otherwise, I've never really had a major problem and no other complaints... just a little irritated.

It works ok for me -- I use the electron card to draw money from a bank ATM and it is ok. Just as long as one doesn't have to use "customer support" you are ok.

I try to keep the balance to the minimum though as I suppose one day they are going to go belly up.

mrfrisky · 2008-11-19, 05:42 AM

Untill now no probs at all except for not being able to pay with virtual on the internet pokertables.

I have about 4-5k on the account almost everyday.

Dunno which i should be using when not epass.

faxxaff · 2008-11-22, 01:04 PM

I have always bitched about epass in the past, but once I sent them verification documents their service is really efficient for me. Since there is no legal guarantee that funds held with epass are safe during the present financial turmoil I decided to withdraw all my funds. To my pleasant surprise I received a wire within 2 days after I uploaded all docs. Heads up from me :-)

ritto · 2008-12-04, 05:58 AM

One of my sponsors quit paying by ccbill and offered me an epass and atm card instead. I said okay.

A week later I get my card in the post and an email to say its been loaded with a few hundred $.

Straight to the ATM machine and withrew the lot. No problem, no charge, easy.

As soon as I get an email to say a payment has been made (to the card), I go and withdraw it. The ATM machine is outside the supermarket, couldnt be easier or more convenient :-)

When buying stuff online I'll use my other credit cards I know and can trust. I only consider the epass as a way of being paid relatively small amounts from sponsors. If I were to wait for a check in the post, its costs me about $10 to convert it into british pounds, so again the epass ATM card is a winner for me.

James_HotMovies · 2008-12-04, 11:29 AM

I'm probably not your average epass user, but I've been happy with it.

I wire in 50k a month with a $20 fee - not great, but not horrible.
I pay affiliates with $2.00 fee per affiliate - think this could be lower, but not horrible

on the receiving end I have 5 or 6 sponsors pay me via epassporte.
I use the physical debit card to take out money at the ATM.
I normally take out the $500 limit to avoid extra fees.
(ATM fees from the ATM Bank, Epass fees)

It never ceases to amaze me how many people make money off our hard work.

Every time I see one of the billing companies sponsoring large parties I wonder how much of my money went into it.

I haven't seen anything of yours but aren't sponsors that use domains on banners and content (amongst many other tricks) doing exactly the same?

Wanderer · 2008-12-13, 08:55 AM

US epassporte user and it works fine for me. I tried transferring funds once or twice and those took far too long. The Electron card is expensive but I use it on a regular basis at ATMs or payments.

officegirl · 2009-01-09, 09:12 AM

no problems for me with epassporte, i use the electron car dand it works fine, i'll pay the $35 for just the ease of getting my money when i am in the USA
