tbh during this time in the business (8 years) I've had a negative experience with every 3rd party service I've ever used
Epass: back when I just started as a cammer, while still in school expecting cam funds earned would help cover tuition and book fees. Wrong.
I did eventually end up getting my funds owed, it took months though. I was broke as fuck during that time and will always be thankful to my peers at uni who lent me their books cuz I could not afford to buy them. Working for free, at least temporarily when real life obligations are involved is not fun. Had I no savings I would have been kicked out of school because without those savings I had no tuition money. Real life ish yet these companies treat our money as a game.
Camwealth: Owed me thousands and if I hadn't sued them (I did and won every sent I was owed and spent pursuing the case, including all court, legal, trace, process service fees, etc) they def never would have lived up to what I (apparently incorrectly) would assume would be a serious issue of ethics and accountability
Zombaio: closed my account with them and will NEVER receive the reserve they currently hold (a small amount, maybe $155 I think) but still the principle applies. If I owed someone $155 dollars and just ignored them I'd be disgusted with myself.
Chexx: Held 27k of my money for months. even when when they paid me back (for which I was and am still immensely grateful) the amount sent was over 1k short. Plus I had my bank account frozen as I was sending regular payments to Chexx so another 9k frozen for 2 months. 36k in total for months (aka over 50k of my CAD savings). was a fun time and I hate that a bunch of peeps (Luke, Simon and Lorelai) lost their jobs due to the inability of their parent company to not steal from the elderly, vulnerable and infirm.
Payoneer: I'm lucky I suppose they only owe me $6300 right now. Have zero idea as to whether it will be wired back to my bank account within the 90 day statutory maximum for withholding funds. Both Pearl and Dan have gone out of their way to provide me with whatever info they can, but they don't run Choice Bank.
And then there is Paxum. I adore you Ruth (I hope you know that, whatever you're paid currently should be tripled for being the public face of so much dissatisfaction that we all know is not your fault) and know you're swamped with work but seriously? I can't get $30 out of my Paxum account being a Canadian/Jamaican dual citizen with a US corp account and address, a home I own in Canada attached to a CA bank account and Belizean residential address and bank account (with dox to prove all of the aforementioned)?
Being real, how could I possibly recommend your service to my friends, peers and contractors who work with me when it looks like my only option to withdraw a minute amount of money without some special new card will require require hitting up Roby or Chosen?
People: get bank accounts. They are at least accountable for the funds they hold
