Hi
At present use only direct cam however can see benefits of skype/msn however on skype when used it previosuly i noted it had own name on, i guess there is some way of ensuring the client only sees courtesan annabel and no other info ?
and how easy is it to set up ?
any help would be great, thanks
regards

I have a separate email address, skype ID and MSN for work. They are stopping MSN next year (not hotmail, just the chat/video side.
Skype is better quality than directcam, so many prefer it...plus the hope that the show will last longer than the booked time. Just make sure you check the amount of credits, time and length of session before you accept a booking as they can adjust the amount...also make sure they confirm the booking after you have accepted or you won't get paid. They will see your skype or MSN ID at this time, so don't give it out to them sooner.

You need to have a skype account just for work without adding your name to it and using a work email.

Go to MY DETAILS and on the left select:
Mobile Phone Verification and SMS Alerts - it will open into another sub menu... select GO and (assuming your mobile is verified!) it opens up something like this:
"MOBILE ACTIVATION
Current Status
Your mobile has been verified.
If you would like to remove or change the number use your Edit Profile page. If you change it a new verification key will be sent to you.
Alerts
When a webcam booking request is made, send me an SMS containing the details. Also, if the booking is accepted and confirmed, send me an SMS about 5 minutes before the session is due to commence. These notifications will be sent to me for free.
When a Phone Chat booking request is made, send me an SMS containing the details. Also, if the booking is accepted and confirmed, send me an SMS about 5 minutes before the phone call should be made. These notifications will be sent to me for free.
Send me an SMS when I receive a new email from another member. I accept that each message I receive will cost me 0.50 credits.
Send me an SMS when I receive a new voicemail. I accept that each message I receive will cost me 0.50 credits. (Voicemail Info.)
"
Basically it will have a tick box (not shown in above sample) next to the Alerts you want to receive. Once you set up the webcam feature and ticked the Alerts you want to receive before each pre-booked Webcam session you should get a text notifying you that you have received a Webcam booking (and also a 2nd 'Reminder' Text nearer the time the booking is due to take place). Hope that helps/makes sense! (oh and btw its free).

I never intend to use skype for shows. The reason is that little record and take pic button they just have to press. I realise that we could be recorded on dc and msn, however its so much easier on skype, and for those men who hadnt thought of recording shows may just find that one click option a good idea
