Your experience with the automatic signup matches mine about a year or so ago. The practice was also present at Naughty America but only for a month or two. Somewhat similar to VideoBox as well.
Both sites stopped the practice quickly. I would hope that BB would as well.

I agree with virtually everything says. I agree totally with his score which he discounted significantly for their lousy business practices. They don't need to use subterfuge to make a few extra bucks especially when it serves only to piss of good (paying) customers.

Hi Amanda,
Based on recent comments above, it appears that the folks at Bang Bros have decided not to correct their dicey business practice. It would be appropriate, in my opinion, for PU/TBP to "delist" Bang Bros the way you have delisted other sites that use inappropriate business practices.
I'm not talking about the daily "we want you back" emails. I'm talking about the inappropriate (illegal?) credit charges for sites never ordered.
Thanks for all you do.

Great point! My IT guy at work showed me how to delete cookies back in September so I did it. It was a pain because I had to restore some of my auto settings but it was about that time when I stopped getting strange stuff from Bang Bros as well.Now I get 3 or 4 "we want you back" emails every day but they are easily handled compared to the unintended subscriptions.

Thanks Amanda. Candidly I'm surprised that Bang Bros Network doesn't recognize how the negatives of this business tactic far outweigh any gain they may get from selling a one month subscription. They've lost me permanently as a customer after several years of monthly subscriptions.
Hopefully they'll figure it out and discontinue the practice.

Epoch is great, but charges for extra sites aren't Epoch's responsibility. They will handle the reversal process efficiently but it's still a hassle.

The problem starts with their cross promotions on the BB site. I've simply clicked on the link expecting to be directed to a preview site. What I get is full access and a credit card surprise...just from the one click.
That's bad enough but when those ubiquitous promotional emails arrive and you click the link, you've signed up.
It's that practice that I will never sign up again with BB. I'd sure like to see PU/TBP to look into this very shady business practice.

While I agree with the quality of BB's content and its huge inventory, I hste their business practices especially when they keep your credit card number on file, then when you simply go to one of their non-network sites just to check it out you wind up getting subscribed to the site then need to go through the hassle of canceling and getting the credit card charge reversed.
100 means everything is perfect. That's not the case by any stretch with Bang Brothers

Great idea.
The two quality billers I've dealt with are CCBill and Epoch. Both are totally reliable and professional. No bullshit.
In fact a few years back I had some real issues with a site and worked directly with an Rpoch attorney to resolve the problem. We communicated by email and by telephone.
Long story short, Epoch fired the site because of it's bad acts.
I'm not happy with the bullshit games Bang Bros plays so I avoid them like the plague. However now that you explained the trick, I will sign up again and use it so zi can get Epoch.
Thanks.
Jack

Ditto both replies. I just got a rejoin promo and, because my memory lasts shorter than my hard dick, I totally forgot I had this problem a while ago, so I clicked on the link. Bad news...it did attempt to run a charge. Good news...I had my card issuer change my credit card number after those assholes succeeded in this trick before so the attempt failed.
It's looking like this once wonderful and groundbreaking porn site has gone straight to Hell. Perhaps it's time for TBP/PU to delist the site because of its horrible business practices.

I agree. BB is up front with their ad displays for other sites and isn't using trickery as other sites (like Naughty America*) do.
*See my comment on the PU page for Naughty America.

Federal law limits the consumer's fraud losses to $50. The credit card issuers must eat the rest. Accordingly issuers are becoming increasingly aggressive in dealing with merchants (web and others) who have more than average numbers of consumer disputes.
What you experienced with Bang Bros is happening with many (most?) porn sites.
My experience has been that the major billers like CCBill and Epoch have a much higher credibility than some of the no-name billers so that becomes one characteristic I always look for in signing up.
Danni Ash has created its own biller (DHD) that some sites use but their record is less than stellar.

I agree with the review except one thing; too many bogus boobies for my taste. Score-wise I would give it an 89, deducting 3 points for the deceptive double DD's.

Bingo. I use FireFox for almost everything myself. That had to be the difference.

I have had no recent trouble with Bang Brothers. Before I posted this reply I accessed the site and downloaded the Raylene update posted on 4/23 with no difficulty.
I suggest you contact their support people. Not the fastest in their response but they will get back to you with real suggestions, not blather.

Got it.
RK was always trouble for me on Firefox.
Don't miss it yet, especially the excessive silicone implants.
BB, with the ability to search for natural, has really improved, but I'm not sure how accurate their "natural" designations are. There are clearly some aftermarket enhancements in the search results.

malikstarks, thanks. I just signed up to Bang Bros and will be canceling Reality Kings (I'm now at $17.95 per month. I may re-up at $9.98 after my account is closed.
Your tip is very much appreciated.

Now that you mention it, I recall they did the same with me. It'll be a one month signup followed by a cancellation two weeks later...then wait for the email barrage.

I just checked the preview site and see what you mean. However I did find a few babes who have "enhanced" tits in the "natural" tits listing, but it's quite possible the content for them is pre-enhancement.
Another question. Are you a multi-month member? If so are you being billed at $17.99 for later months(the TBP special rate for new members) or at $26.91 as stated in the latest review?

BZ is loaded with aftermarket enhancements to the point that I'm ready to cancel after over a year.
RK, on the other hand, still has enough naturals to keep me around.
BB, I'm back. BZ, nice knowing you but it's time to move on guys.

It's been about 2 years since BB got any of my hard earned money. I like their style but the aftermarket tits showed up way too often. I'll go for amonth or two to update my collection and see if they warrant a longer term "loyalty." Thanks.

I hear you and may switch back to Bang Brothers simply because they have added the natural breasts search function after I drop Brazzers and Reality Kings.

I dropped Bang Bros two years ago because I really tired of the excessive number of aftermarket mammaries they provided. I'm getting very close to dropping both Brazzers and Reality Kings for the same reason.
It's to a point that, if a site doesn't have a genre search function that includes "natural tits," or at least a designation tag that says enhanced or natural titties, I'm not signing up.

Have not been a member for over a year, but it sounds like nothing much has changed.
I was constantly finding scenes in their public site that were nowhere to be found on the member site and I never got any response from the support function.
I had no special problems with their download speeds, but that was in 2008. Servers and their bandwith could have changed since then.
And the quantity of silicone installed as aftermarket equipment on their models is HUGE, as you suggested. When I see tits in a porno scene, I like to see a little bit of movement.

Second that. Their content and quality issues coupled with this made Babg Bros. a former site for me. I was a member for about 6 months but decided to cancel earlier this month and really haven't missed it for a second.
