Title: Taking the piss
Post by: tramazi on July 16, 2010, 08:35:06 PM
I have been a member of Achat for sometime now, and have just been taken for a ride for the 1st time  for A$ - there must be some way of getteing this back what you have paid for .And if not make a way off getting it back, because i'll leave if this carries on and so will other members. Think retention makers of Achat cos that's what will make your money for you.

Do I understand you correct tramazi? You paid to go into the room (or maybe to get real pics) and now you want this money back?

We all are saying," You have to tell more of the story.  Because we are just lost as hell.  We don't know why your pissed off.  I hope your talking about buy that worm postion, cause I'd like my money back on that one.  But if you gave your money for some pics, i have alot to say on that, but I'm trying to point out to Bobbycat that I can be nice ;D."

Maybe he is still searching for his money ;)

Maybe he's just realizing he's been fooled and there's not a chance he'll get any help. Without an official policy on matters like this, the AChat team owes us nothing.
Keeping us happy is in their best interest though as they would end up without cash eventually if they didn't.

Actually Bouli another economic model works on the idea of continuously attracting new clientele. Then one's older client base can be more or less ignored as long as all contracted services are rendered as they were promised at the time of contract.

Like when an ISP spends more on advertising to lure in new customers then keeping their tech able to handle the increased demands the new customers they are seeking out will make.

Yeah I'm looking at you Microsoft Network I have neither forgiven nor forgotten.

Yea, absolutely. But I am under the impression that the main way people find their way here is by word of mouth from current/old users.
I think we've derailed from the main topic though. :)

Honestyly, what the hell was the topic?  He never truly explained it.  The title had me thinking he wanted to add pissing to Achat.  I'm still lost at why he is pissed. :-\

He tried to buy sex and was scammed. Simple as that.
A seller's market to be sure. :P

It would have been strange enough if he is a new member. But he writes "

He must know there is no reason to pay.

But for all dupes, I am the first official BOC, the Bureau Of Complaints.

Sorry for not replying but i have been on holiday.

I'll explain what happened.

I came across a member who was offering to send photo's in exchange for A$, I sent her the money and as soon as she recieved it she added me to her ignor list and never sent any photo's.

Now i know it's my fault for being to trusting, but their must be some way of reporting users who do this and maybe someway of A$ back from the user  like you can do on ebay for example, or stop users offering photo's ect for money (I would not like to see this happen as it is up2 people what they do and do not want to do on Achat within reason).

Thoughts please.....

thoughts...you got burned and don't do it again  ;) aren't there plenty of places on the internet where you can see naked chicks?

getting your money back...i doubt it.

So in other words your saying to people if you want to take someone for a ride then come on Achat we don't mind and we don't give a toss about the people who pay there monthly subscription aslong as they keep paying it. >:(

What happened to being able to trust sites like this that i have been paying money to each month.

And yes i can get pics of naked women on the internet

The AChat team will take no responsibility whatsoever for how we users use and abuse their gifting system. It's sad and unfortunate, but both logical and sound from a business and legal perspective as far as I can see it.

Oh well i guess i have learned the hard way, It's a shame because my level of trust of users on Achat has reduced alot   :(
Title: Re: Taking the piss
Post by: sinnnn on July 22, 2010, 06:16:54 PM
WOW.  Really WOW.  

Take a leaf out of my book, please.  Repeat after me,"  I don't let anyone fuck with my money, be it real or fake."

Honestly I really can't feel sympathy for you on this one.  One you can find so many naked pic on line its not funny.  Two this site has whores, whores are con-men.  Three you don't know truly know anyone and to trust a totally stranger on a sex site with your money.  I got con one time in my life, I was 16 and I had no sympathy for my dumb ass.  All I have to say is I really hope it wasn't alot of money.

Now I do give you that Achat need to make some rules and stick by them.  If someone breaks them then they need to be banned, depends on how bad the crime.  If they don't then we should just police ourselves.  Like how Spidermen asshole story got out.  But the only problem with that is they can always create a new account.

Just take it as a expensive lesson for now.  Keep fighting for stricker rules.  And please get your pics for free, its really easy.

Of course, cause one sinle person has fucked you, you may not trust to all the other ones. Though this is a virtual world, this is also the real life. That means, you will find some really nice people which you will meet more often, you will find some people with a singlecontact and you will find some assholes. You just have to hope (and to behave yourself) that the numbers of assholes is much less than the numbers of nice people.

By the way, give us the name of this nice lady. Maybe you can save other big spenders :)
