Exactly what it looks like to me, as well. What I find really strange is that NO ONE, not ONE payment processor is willing to come out and make the same offer to its customers (or at least as a promotion, to gain new ones) as Zombaio does. Same deal, not some 'temporary' version of it, not some 'trial basis' but the real deal. There is so much wrong with this industry. It's both scary and hysterical at the same time and that's special because not many companies can make that claim.

LOL!!! Great post amanda, thanks!

Wait, I think I can see John on the 5th floor....

But who's the guy on the bike? Gee... look at all that cash in his pockets, he must be in charge for the payouts...

Amanda what deal is that...i am getting 7.9% at Verotel that is less than Zombaio normal 9.9% deal, the only time you get 4.9% is when you are doing $75k weekly.
Verotel will work with you on MC/Visa fees, plus since I have been back with them, they havent missed or been late with a payment in over a year.

I'm tired of Z not being upfront and honest with me, so I'm interested in hearing from more legit payment processors for a subscription based site and leaving Z entirely by February 1. Honestly, I'm a little confused as to some of these options, though. So reps, please PM me and I will let you know my needs.

the thing is Paul, in contacting support all I get as an 'inactive' merchant is a we can't say when unsettled amounts will be sent out.

Don't get me wrong, I have no complaints about Zombaio support; Jesper, David and Michal have been awesome to me. I don't hold them responsible for these delays and Z merchant support (sadly) continues surpass my current payment gateway.

That said this current situation with the 'new zombaio' in terms of payments is unacceptable. The notion of sending new subscriptions in order to get paid back funds when I'm owed from July feels crazy to me.

Does Zombaio have an ETD on overdue funds for inactive merchants? If so, when?

I also got 3 large payments.

Sorry but it is more than likely your overdue funds are being used to pay other merchants.
Owed funds from July and its Dec....damn!!!!:Oh crap

Please email me with your merchant id and I will see what I can do.

The building is having some teething issues, please be patient.

Is this a joke? Last time I saw this request the requested got a shut down account.

Sure as hell can't remember who that was though... 69 or something

Given that Zombaio has had trouble paying, while offering the deal they have, the math may just not work for the processors with more reasonable (from our perspective) fees.

time will tell I guess. I will email Paul with my merchant ID-as I have nothing to hide. None of my sites offer Z processing currently anyways, as I won't process a dime through Zombaio until I'm paid in full, until other Z-processors I'm in contact with are paid in full.

My adult work isn't a game, it's a significant portion (1/3) of my livelihood. In my business I'm responsible for payouts of 1000s per week. Small potatoes to some but for me it's huge. To the women I pay it's huge. Hell, for myself not having to pay out from my savings like I did all fucking summer is huge.

On payout day I do not rest until everyone is paid in full, as that's a significant aspect of my job. I can't fathom a person sleeping peacefully knowing that they have a debt unpaid. In my case I had to pay peeps thousands out of pocket for months even after leaving Z, and both my current processor and Z apparently couldn't care less about their commitments.

At least Z answers emails in a timely fashion; it's kinda sad that I have my own merchant account with a payment gateway and that I'm on a first name basis/mutual appreciation society basis with my merchant bank*, as my so-called merchant account/payment gateway rep rep is utterly useless.

So yeah, in terms of unprofessional conduct I don't have a lot of patience but at the same time I'm cutting Z some slack in at least attempting to get their ish together, as for all their faults they have been superior in every way to my current processor

Tomorrow I'll email Paul with my merchant ID, if I get canned for speaking up so be it. I doubt I will be, time will tell and I'll def report back here either way.

Wishing everyone the best of luck in getting paid, I really hope Z can survive this and get their ish together.

*If anyone from Humboldt bank reads this, Tamara deserves a raise. I've already sent emails in this regard to her superiors.

See what you can do....lol ? What did Zombaio forget that they haven't paid a merchant in 6 months...get real? Why do people have to beg for their money, Zombaio has obviously collected it. I will tell you why PONZI:thumbsup

Thought that guy looked familiar.. kinda looks like this guy on this bike.. https://gfy.com/17582446-post45.html

Oh, I definitely remember that...lol:pimp

This thread is disturbing :1orglaugh

definitely with those pictures

Paul- I am an active processor and still have had nothing worked out for the money I am owed. I'd been emailing with you guys about money owed and messages stopped. Why is this and when can I expect my funds?

100 lame excuses

Drop me a line with your merchant id and I will look into it for you.

How about you just look into everyone's merchant account and get us all of our owed money?

As has been stated in this thread multiple times, we shouldn't have to beg for our own money!

Pay people what you owe and maybe you will start to see some of us people adding Zombaio back into their tiers. And don't expect to placed at the top with any of us, as you guys are trying to insist on.

If you really want to help not only us merchants who have a bad taste for Zombaio, but also yourselves, get right with people and these negative threads go away. Pretty simple fucking math if you ask me.

Want to answer a Question Paul? If Zombaio was sold, where did the purchase cash go? Because last time I checked (2 minutes ago), I didnt get any of what is owed to me out of it!

Switched to Verotel as well. On time every week. Actually, always early. Zero issues. I havent had to contact support once yet.

Paul doesn't have an answer for any of the real questions, just a bullshit can responses.

I went ahead and sent him my Merch# and contact info.

Whats the worst that can happen? They block my account and not pay me the money I am not expecting to get paid anyway?

As I said a while ago, cancelled all my rebills and a lot of them have switched over to my new processor. Not all, but enough. And this money I actually get.

So, if Paul is legit and I get the money owed to me, great. And I WILL post a follow up here. Good or Bad

Hi,

You sound like someone from my own era.

They will pay you "maybe" 5 cents on the dollar. good luck

Ha... Nothing below what is owed will be accepted

If Zombaio still owes you money, dont fret some people are getting paid your money and eventually you will get paid somebody else's too.

Those people that stick with this shady company deserve what the future holds..lol.:pimp

Paul, the contact button in your sig seems to be a dead link

lol @ zombaio.

fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice... well you know.

All of these "low cost" processors always end up in the toilet. Is there one that has even lasted half as long as Epoch or CCBILL?

The link is good. Clicking it will open your email client if you have a local one like Outlook, or hovering over it will reveal the email. Alternatively you can find it in the first post in this thread.

I guess Zombaio figured that Michael O had lost all creditability, so they had to go find a new sellout, sorry I mean support person. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:pimp

As I promised, here is the follow up.
___________________________________

Got an email right away from Paul asking for time to check into it.
Next day, another email saying he was able to get partial payment released Monday.

Checked Payout reports, nothing yet. However he said it would be out Monday and should have in my account end of next week.

Will keep on following up....

So, the good is, My account wasnt blocked after contacting Paul.
He was very responsive.
Said he is getting shit done.

The Bad is, partial payment (If it comes through). But, we shall see I guess

Paul is smart enough to know the bad posts , late payout, no payouts and the lack of communication and transparency is killing Zombaio.

The real problem is it hasn't killed them already

Not sure why they would promise a partial payout then not give you anything. So that sounds like probably good news. Hoping for some as well.

The bad is... partial payments??? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh The bad is... you're BEGGING for a bit of chump change and still might not even get it / still haven't gotten it, THAT'S the bad... please be realistic this has happened to most of us at least once.

ok well call me crazy but i have added them to my back up behind verotel once again-- they sent my partial and an on time payment -- i have hope so i will send them a lil biz as long as my weeklies keep coming ---- not worth paying $1000 bucks annnnnd high ass rates for a back up -- so im in it to wait for it lol will update you -- and note i have been processing with zombaio since they started

The bad would be not getting anything at all. I was commenting on the BAD from the conversation I had with Paul.

Yes, it has happened to me as well. When I first started, before moving on to "Main Stream Work" I was one of the first webmasters to use Lancelot (There is a throw way back for you) and even used AVS systems, but mostly for traffic.

Even though I have recently gotten back into the Adult World I have played this game before, not anything new to me.

But thanks for your input.

Ok �� CRAZY, but not surprising, also 9.9% is not a low rate?
I cant use them anyway, but wouldn't if I could, lesson learned.

Not worth the headaches and late payouts, disappearing money for the ability to not pay mc/visa fees and possibly several percentage points.
