I’ve found that in the past when this sort of thing happens, it’s because they’ve hired an agent who is not looking closely, or someone who doesn’t have a whitelist to reference.
I have always found Nick really responsive though. Did you try emailing [email protected] ?
As an FYI, I have not heard back from Nick in more than 24 hours. We used to confer about technique, but I recently became a subscriber again and was temporarily blocked and was required to upload a photo ID. Been in the industry and a consumer for more than 20+ years I find this security requirement absolutely ludicrous and a violation of my privacy!
You are going to have to get used to it. Payment processors are requiring proof of age and identity - it isn’t the programs that are requiring new security, it’s the banking system.
Sounds crazy, but it might be because of the Age verification law in UK…
Well actually that make sense, cause there is no nudity on tour either. It’s his way to comply with all new laws.
I would be very worried about GDPR implications and his ability to comply with secrure storage of personal information… no way in hell is anyone getting a copy of my ID uploaded to the web!
This is concerning.
We’re currently emailing with Nick to try to work out just how factual this is, because it doesn’t seem right to me that he would be demanding ID from every new subscriber.
I do know that we occasionally hear from models who leave comments threatening legal action unless we remove their images.
I just politely point out that we are not the entity they are in a legal contract with and they need to contact the other party of that agreement. If we receive a request from the party we are in a contractual agreement with to remove that content then we will.
Just check out the comments on our review of English Lads, there’s so many complaints about the ID and other requirements:
And yes… I doubt he’s complying with GDPR with storing any data or even the fact that his taking all this data in the first place. I’m surprised no one has complained yet, maybe because it’s porn and people dont want to admit that anywhere official.
Our discussion with Nick didn’t last long. We never got an answer about requesting ID from subscribers.
This probably explains why we’ve seen declining sales with EL since about Nov 2019. I’m guessing that’s when things really started changing, with regard to restricted access for members and the demands to see ID etc.
It’s a real shame. Their content is perfect for several of our themed sites and there really aren’t many alternatives we could turn to.
If anyone can recommend solo/straight guy/mutual masturbation content from a consistent site with regular updates please let me know. We could potentially send a lot of members their way after a few months of consistent updates.
