Agree they really need to sort out their cancellation procedure. When I used the cancellation form within their members area they didn't cancel it but sent me an email offering to reduce the recurring billing by 50% and instructed me that I had to reply within 48 hours to accept the discount or reply to the email to confirm I wished to proceed with the cancellation. I replied to confirm I wanted to proceed with the cancellation but I believe that email must have been ignored because I received no reply back or confirmation the subscription had actually been cancelled. After a couple of days with no reply I checked the confirmation email I recieved when I signed up which gave a URL for billing inquiries chp-ddfhelp.com. At that url there is the option to "locate order" by filling in your credit card details which brought up the transaction details pretty much the same as you get with CCBill or Epoch and there was a "cancel" link there so I could see they hadn't already cancelled it as requested. Anyhow I clicked the cancel link and it immediately generated an email confirming the subscription was cancelled.

That's worrying for you. I bookmarked the link from the promo email and just visited the site again but didn't see anything untoward with it.

Yes I refer to it sometimes to find out what other sites the company runs.

Was a member approx. 1 month prior to this review.
|
| Pros: |
A network of 13 sites offering a huge amount of content, 1952 models, 10798 scenes and over a million photos.
Update’s with around 27 scenes per week; most scenes include a video and corresponding photo set.
A huge variety of niches covered; solo, lesbian, hardcore, legs and feet, busty, teens plus much more.
Stunning quality high resolution photos and hd video.
Photos in 3 sizes, 532x800, 799x1200 and 1331x2000 px.
Zip downloads for the largest sized photos.
Latest videos come in MP4 format usually with a choice of 3 or 4 different resolutions typically 1920x1080 @ 12Mbps, 1280x720 @ 4Mbps, 960x540 @ 3Mbps and 640x360 @ 2Mbps. Flash streaming also available in a choice of similar resolutions.
Lots of info provided, model info, scene descriptions, run times and file sizes of videos displayed.
Good download speeds 95% of the time.
Only need to enter username and password once to access all sites in network.
Lots of browse and search options.
PU/TBP discount. |
| Cons: |
Expensive Euro based regional pricing (equivalent of $35 even with PU Discount)
Unfamiliar billing processor
Pre-checked cross sales
Cancellation request email was ignored.
The latest version of the site logo/watermark on photos is larger and more unsightly than previous versions; DDF in large black letters with what looks like a red dragon draped all around the letters, very distracting.
No zip for the small and medium photos might be a con for some although not an issue for me personally.
Little ethnic diversity amongst the models for those of us who like some Asian or darker skinned models.
Some duplication of content between the different sites
Some of the earliest content is poor quality although that’s to be expected on a site that’s been online nearly 12 years. |
| Bottom Line: |
This is one of those sites that has been on my list to join for years but the expensive Euro based regional pricing has always made it prohibitively expensive for me particularly considering my interest is only in solo glamour photo shoots so probably 80% of the network’s content is of no interest to me. I’ve only joined now thanks to an email promo offering a join price of 8.95 Euros and with the threat of a recurring billing of 34.95 Euros it was always going to be in for one month, grab as much as I can of what interests me and then cancel.
Since my main interest is solo photo content the site of most interest to me in the network was 1 By Day. It’s by far the largest site in the network with archives dating as far back as 2001 with almost 12 years of daily updates to check out. It’s the only site in the network that is still adding updates on a daily basis which is great for fans of solo content. It was a real treasure trove for a collector finding a lot of the early stuff of many of the top Euro models like Sophie Moone, Sandra Shine and Eve Angel. Being a fan of Eve Angel her solo site in the network Eve Angel Official was another attraction for me but I ended up being a little disappointed by it. As I’m not interested in the videos or lesbian content I just went through Eve’s site grabbing all her solo photo sets and ended up with just over 7,000 photos in 102 sets. There were a lot of very short photo sets with only around 30+ photos; I don’t know how anyone is supposed to enjoy a nice clothed to naked strip in such small photo sets. For me the old Eve Angel site was far superior to this one in terms of the photo content available.
DDF Busty was another site where I found a lot of nice solo scenes of some amazingly busty models. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many large breasts in one place. There were some models that were quite large all over who might be considered borderline BBW but I found plenty of sexy large breasted models with nice figures that I wanted to download. This site is still updating on average 3 times per week. Although I’ve never been a great fan of foot fetish content I do love women wearing stockings and heels so also found plenty of nice sets to download over at Hot Legs and Feet. I did find a lot of the sets here were from the same shoots on 1 By Day but with additional shots of feet and legs added. This site is also still adding 3 updates per week.
Hairy Twatter is quite a new site with earliest content from June 2011. The theme of the site is girls with naturally hairy unshaven pussies in a variety of solo, g/g and b/g scenes. So far there are only 77 scenes and 51 models with 1 new scene being added each week. There’s none of the extreme hairy scary stuff here that turns me off from joining some of the other dedicated hairy themed sites out there. Euro Teen Erotica just features some of the more youthful looking babes on the network. I’m not quite sure if much of the content is exclusive to that site; when I started browsing it I was seeing a lot of scenes duplicated from 1 By Day. Sex Video Casting gives you the chance to see many of your favourite models in an amateur casting scenario without all the glamour styling and make up. It’s quite surprising how average many of these models look without the professional styling. Also most of these casting videos tend not to have the HD option which I presume is to give them more of an amateur feel.
The other sites in the network had little interest to me. Sandys Fantisies is the solo site of Hungarian model Sandy and is just an archive site that’s not been updated since 2007. Cherry Jul is the solo site of a slender small breasted Russian babe currently with 93 scenes and adding 1 scene per week. Euro Girls On Girls is a lesbian site with 466 scenes and adding 1 scene per week, Hands On Hardcore is dedicated to hardcore action and also adding 1 scene per week and Only Blowjob is fairly self-explanatory and updating 3 times per week. House Of Taboo is where you will find all the more kinky stuff including bondage, peeing, fisting, spanking and plenty of kinky leather and latex fetish wear.
Overall as a first time subscriber I found enough high quality content to keep me busy for a month even with my fairly narrow interests, in fact I’ve probably downloaded enough content to keep me busy for another month or two after my subscription has ended. Despite my not being interested in many of the network sites I feel it would be unjust to score the site any less than a 90 bearing in mind the vast amount and variety of high quality content available particularly for first time subscribers. Returning members may find some issues with recycling or remastering of older content though. |

A better tour would help the site. I checked out the site but it don't give anything away. Click on photos or videos and it just goes to the sign up page. Click on updates and there's no list of updates nor any clickable samples. After reading your glowing review and checking out the site tour I still have no idea how many photo sets or videos I would be likely to find on the site.

720p is preferrable, 1080p just takes too long to download and takes up too much hd space.

I had to consult an online dictionary to find out the meaning of the word oedipal to understand the question. I've certainly never had an oedipus complex even in my younger years, i've always been attracted to younger women.

I'm generally not interested in trials except on the odd very rare occasion if I know it's a small site with limited content and they offer full access with a reputable biller so I know it will be easy to cancel. As others have said good previews and reviews with a sensible monthly subscription fee eliminate the need for trials as far as I'm concerned.

I went to check out this offer today being a fan and former member of Real Peachez. On the sign up page there was the offer of a cheap cross sale to Club Jenni Website (not pre checked) and when I clicked on the site to see who or what Club Jenni is all I got was a 404 page cannot be found error so it seems like they are trying to cross sell a subsrciption to a non exsistant site. Also I could not find any search results for Club Jenni within PU/TBP; my initial thought was that it might be a solo site of that cute Czech blonde Jenni.

Hooliganzo's Review
Good review Hooliganzo, can't really disagree with anything you wrote there. Personally I love their style of photography with the natural light and it's a site i'm likely to return to time and time again as long as it stays at the great value for money price of $10.

Although my preferred niche of softcore photography sites is probably not what most people would call porn since most of my top rated sites predominantly feature the work of Russian and Ukranian photographers and models I guess I would have to vote other as in Russia/Ukraine.

Primarily it's the amount of content. The only sites I've stayed at longer than a month in recent times are Met Art and Only Tease and that was basically because it was the first time I'd joined either site so had 10 years or more of archives to go through.

otoh's Review
Great review otoh. This site has been on my list of possibles for some time but it never quite seems to grab my attention enough to sign up. It's good to know those picture sets can easily be grabbed with DTA though should I decide to sign up one day.

Agree totally with messmer, I like the build up if it includes any teasing or stripping then foreplay but when it gets down to the action I quickly become bored and end up skipping to the end.

That's exactly why I used a prepaid card on this one Squirrel. When I went to cancel I got an email offering me a discount to stay and I had to reply to say if I wanted to take them up on the offer or proceed with the cancellation request. I've replied to say proceed with the cancellation but have recieved no acknowledgement they recieved that email or any kind of confirmation the subscription has actually been cancelled. It just seems like hassle compared to using CCBill or Epoch.

I did get an email acknowledgement of my cancellation request but it wasn't immediate like it is with Epoch or CCBill; I cancelled in the evening and the email arrived next morning. Also it appears they didn't immediately cancel the subscription; they wrote saying they would like to keep me as a customer offering to reduce the rebill by 50% from 34.95 down to 17.99 Euros to which you have 48 hours to reply whether you wish to take advantage of the offer or proceed with the cancellation.

When I joined last week the billing company was Trustcharge which seems to be their default biller at the moment. Because that billing company is unfamiliar to me and the sign up page had pre checked cross sales I didn't take any chances and used a prepaid card to sign up so they won't be able to charge me again; my cancellation seemed to go through ok though.
