Seems I got the bit about accepting payments wrong (thank you to the not very pleasant gent who took the trouble to point that out to me, ok I got it wrong but there was no need for the abuse).
Ok so seems PureStorm has it's own merchant account and may have to stick to certain guidelines, but even so I still don't believe that has much to do with why they ban those that they do.

Given there are so many that have been banned from PureStorm for no justifiable reason. Why don't we all get together all sign up with different details (easy to get around as we all just use a friend or family members details and credit card, with permission of course) and spread the word to gain support, upgrade to premium membership and then do a chargeback, if the site gets a high percentage of chargebacks it won't go down too well. Just a thought.

I get that now of course.
When I first decided to have a go at this business I joined a lot of sites and I couldn't have read the terms properly. It's my own fault but now I can't redeem myself with PS.
Never mind, I have had some good advice from other members of this site about where to look so I don't feel too bad about it now.

I wasnt advertising that I was looking for b/g work on that site. I didnt mention that at all cos thats not what I was looking for on that site. I actually even listed the type of work I was looking for, as I do alot of non-adult modelling including several published ad campaigns and several tattoo magazine covers and several fetish fashion magazines and live fashion shows, I work with 2 record labels and a few clothing brands, all of which I listed in my experience but cos I listed that I had also shot for Playboy TV and Television X etc, I was suspended.

PureStorm is a business with customers, and whilst yes I agree the site has the right to set whatever rules they wish and to eject anyone on any grounds that they wish to, customer service is often what will ultimately determine a businesses long term future. PS may be keeping the majority happy at present, but even many of those are unhappy with the moderation teams attitude. Eventually it will come back to bite you.

so how the fuck are we supposed to learn then if they deny contact with models?
Ive seen over 500 different girls in parlours and as escorts and I dont remember ever being excluded by anyone connected with them.
I learnt who to like and who to see just the once.
So why not the same with models?If I am paying my cash,why would it be considered taking the piss?
