So, while we are on this subject: any sites you guys can recommend that is either as good in quality as the DDF (hot legs and feet, hands on hardcore) or as abundant as videobox?
Brazzers is ok but their quality is not up there with the likes of the above. DDF update really slowly and are expensive for the amount of updates provided (and current EU pricing).
Short of trawling all the reviews I am hoping some of you ...ahem...'veterans' can provide quality recommendations.
Thanks

I'm with you squirrel and I am not bothered about the conversion rate as that's easy to find out.
I am just thoroughly pissed off that an online site distinguishes between regions and charges what they 'feel' to be the right price.
I cannot justify the extra costs just because I live in the UK.
As I stated earlier, I own an e-commerce site and short of the usual taxations I do not charge so excessively.
We have the same problem here in the UK with online companies like Adobe that charge dollar to pound as 1-2-1 which means Dreamweaver at $800 costs us £800.
Go figure.
Either way, I am now going to look to join another site.
The loss is Videobox's.
What a lot of these sites, and some members, do not realise is that a few euros here and there makes a huge difference to people like me who join multiple sites.

Have you tried a currency converter? Here is one that I used to use when the sites were charging in Euros.
http://finance.yahoo.com/currency-converter?u
Just type the amount in and what you want to convert it to. The dollar had been picking up steam, I was about to post a comment last week about the European sites that said they raised their prices because the dollar value was falling, but the dollar took another fall this week.

I'm not sure how many times it has to be repeated before everyone gets it but ...
What you're seeing is *not* a CCBill conversion ratio. It is regional pricing. If you care to learn more, see my lengthy reply to remark by another user on another site.

I second that.
I think they're having a laugh - since complaining and telling them I'm gonna trash them on the review sites, my speeds gone down to 2 kbps....gonna take 75 days to download a 25 minute scene.
They're a bunch of jokes.
But, as usual - I'll have the last laugh.
Will report back.

Absolutely - I just get standard rubbish back...like "is your modem switched on?"
I give up already.....at Saturday evening time, I'm now getting just 20 k per second - that's saying 8 1/2 hours to download a 25 minute scene of some 450 MB......it should be done is 10 minutes flat !
Well, they lose out, as I won't be renewing, as I had planned to, and I bet a lot more people in Europe/UK have the same problem, and also, vote with their feet.
Clearly they make millions from Americans and are 90% on BestPorn, so why would they care about a few Brits ?

Seems as if I was lucky in the first few days. After 6 AM CET I do get download speeds of 300 kB/sec and slightly above using my primary ISP. I'll keep an eye on that the next few days.

Hey The Squirrel,
I use Free Download Manager,looks like they would have gotten a more definitive name since it just sounds like someone is saying a free download manager!
You can get it below. It has an option in it to scan for viruses. I've used it off and on for probably 3-4 years now, and have never had any signs of viruses from it. The company that owns it is a pretty reputable one. It doesn't even have ads on it like most download managers do.

I switched over to using Free Download Manager, and it fixed the problem. I had been just using the Firefox download manager. FDM hasn't had one error and is getting right at 100% speed for me. I have a 10 M connection, so my top speed will run at around 1,200 kb/s. Running two downloads at the same time in FDM, keeps a steady 600 kb/s on each one.

from Goldfish:
I was surprised to see the 75 rating for such a great site. I guess if you are really into some type of fetish that is not on Video Box I can understand a bit more.
I will say I don't recall ever having download issues with Video Box. it may be you logged on at a bad time. Definitely give it another try if you haven't already.

I've never been scammed this way but am still very wary of it. i have one credit card on which I requested a very low credit limit ($80.00) that I use exclusively for porn sites. I get notified whenever a charge appears on the account is made and pay it immediately in order to leave an open to spend of $80.00.
The few times I sign up for a high amount, usually for a term longer than one month, I will do so only with CCBill or Epoch.

Tree Rodent's Comment from Tree Rodent:
This has finally been resolved thanks to my bank, who have credited the money back to my account and blacklisted Segpay. I wont be using that payment processor again, but if I ever wanted to, I would have to approach the bank to de-blacklist them! Don't think I'll be doing that.
The two most annoying things from this are, it will be a long time before I hand over credit card details to any porn site again, and I was never informed I was signed up to the cam site in the first place.
Mostly I get informed if I'm signed up to these "free" sites, and cancel the minute I receive the mail, just in case. If I had been notified I could have done the same for this organisation.

Hope this gets sorted Tree Rodent, good to see the webmaster coming on here, I do agree though you shouldn't have to jump through hoops to cancel and refunded on things you didn't order. Without honest porn buyers adult sites wouldn't exist so keeping them happy and willing have a great experience should be paramount, piss them off and they will flee for good.

Incidents like this give porn a bad reputation as being dishonest websites.
Thanks for sharing. At least the webmaster is checking in to it.

from Clement:
Hi! I'm Clement, the owner of bang.com. First I'd like to thank you for bringing this to our attention. I believe I know what happened and it shouldn't have happened.
We have a partnership with streamate, that provides VideosZLive.com and LiveCamsAdult.com and we do create a 100% free account when you join VideosZ.com but there should be no charge.
We do get attacked constantly on videosz and bang with people trying username/password combination from all the other hacks that happened (stolen password database etc) so it's very possible someone found out your access, and illegaly accessed your VideosZ account and therefore created charges on your credit card at our live cam partner.
I recommend updating your password on our site but also other sites, and use a service like LastPass to use a different password for each site. That's what I use personally to secure all of my accounts.
We're committed to providing a great customer experience and as you can see our customer support manager Alison handled your request in a timely manner, and took the time to explain what happened. You can definitely contact her again if you need anything else. You can also hit me up at clement@bang.com and I can give you a promo code to get a super discounted rate to our site as a token of our apology!
Thanks again

The main thing is you got your money back.
Which should be satisfying.
In spite of the work and frustration of dealing with the problems.
Every so often I get one of my credit cards cancelled for fraud.
And get a new card # issued to me.
It happens. A side effect of owning credit cards.
(Almost all of the fraud charges are found by the credit card companies, not by me. They ask me if these charges are valid, and I say no: I've never been in Africa, or some state in the US.) My credit cards seem to travel a lot more than I do.

Just a follow-up and confirmation, Squirrel. I just signed with them again and there was indeed a pre-checked cross sale to another site on the bottom of SegPays join form!

Yes, you scared me enough to do a quick check of my credit card balance and there was only one payment to Videosz. So we're okay, squirrel. :-)

Hi the Squirrel, unless I completely overlooked it this site no longer has any pre-checked cross sales. The transaction was through SegPay whom I trust as much as Epoch or CCBill. I did not get any notification that I had joined an additional site ... however I will keep a close watch on my credit card just to make sure.

Thanks, Squirrel..
If any doubt - check the preview...
It may take a little time to ajust to the navigation, but when you have done that, I'm sure you'll be more satisfied with this, than both Videobox and New Sensations - NS is according to my experience way behind in video-quality...
But bottomline - take the chance - for 17.95 - not that I'm promoting the site in anyway - but, man - I like it much better than Videobox - and I've found some tremendous stuff, I've never found anywhere else...just browse, bro....

I agree, but having the 'amateur' feel to it does add to the overall heat of the site. I suspect that a director of Woodman's ability and resources could use a full crew if he wanted, so I wonder if the amateur feel he creates in intentional. I suspect that it might be.
Thanks for the comment on the review.
