I agree. That's why I think they could be a bit more inventive. However, ofcon still is part of the reason why the channel hasn't been that great. When was the last time you saw the handthong on Elite? I haven't seen it from any of them, not even Caty in over a month. Lori's shows are probably the least tame performances lately, but most of the other shows have been toned down considerably, most noticeably the 2-4-1s. The Sophia/Lori 2-4-1 was the best one I've seen in quite a while.

yeah am watching kitty lea on the 914 stream dont know if its me, but that lighting is even more whacked out then usual.

unless kittys just gone overboard on the tan which i doubt. and i know am not imagining it,

nah its bad lighting

Perhaps Elite have adopted Mrmann's idea and are slowly turning the lights off!!!

Will help their sleep patterns for sure

I too got stuck in the menu system, repeatedly being told i was being put through only to hear nothing but dead air. I e-mailed jamie at elite and he replied asking for details of what happened, i explained the problem and he promised to look into it. The next day i was contacted by Lee who confirmed the details of what happened and apologised for any inconvenience and said he would sort things out.

Unfortunately i can only comment on my own experiences with Elites customer services, and i have to say it was a very positive experience.

Hopefully they will be able to sort out any future problems with equal success.

Same thing happen to me last night tried to call Lori at about 9.20 and was told I would be connected only to see her sitting there not on a call and silience on my line. This is not the fisrt time this has happened, does not getting calls effect the girls money or are they paid so much for the hours they spend on screen. Elite need to fix this or they will loose customers!!!.

Which as we all know is really one of the other girls on their break or a 'hired hand'

Can,t really see it affecting the girls pay as technically you are still being charged for as though you have been connected to the girl. I don,t believe it is in anybody,s best interest ( the caller losing money or Elite losing a customer ) that these issues go unresolved. Try getting in touch with Elites customer service and explaining the problem, as long as you know the approximate time and length of the call they should be able to help you out.

If people don,t tell them then they cannot sort the problem.

I don't think it is a technical problem, it's just how they make money... here's a crude way of looking at it. I'm not in the biz so this could be way off, but hey...

1.53 per min x 60 mins = 91.80 per hour x 8hrs = 734.40 per girl per night if she's on the phone the whole time. Pay your girl 350 and that leaves 384, plus her cab home so you're clearing approx 350 per girl per night. Then you've got equipment, cameras, Afroman, camermen, studio, heating (that must cost a bomb to stop the girls getting goose bumps), airtime rental... so profit per girl per night isn't that great if anything. EDIT: and you've got three girls and two screens, so it's squeezed even more.

So they have to stack calls to make the business work... an average of say four callers in the system per girl all night would quadruple those numbers. In fact all the profit for Elite Nights might come solely from callers waiting in the system, it's just a game of seeing how far you can push it before it starts working against you, which is why if you do complain they're pretty good about it, but they carry on.

Unless the website and other chat services fund Elite Nights... in other words Elite Nights is just a way to promote the girls, text services and the website, the real earners. What's Eliteonline, 10 quid a month? 10,000 members = 100k per month/ 1.2m per year in revenue... nice chunk of change.

It has been said previously on the forum, that the money is made not from the callers who actually talk to the girls, but from the many more people who pay just to listen in.
I think I saw a figure of 20 or 30 times mentioned somewhere, but only Elite would know.
