i appreciate the fact that those of us doing the transfers made a little money outta the whole thing. i stopped doing them when the first post about NT closing accounts was made and i was charging the standard 5% fee up to that point.
i actually made more on one or two transfers as the guys involved were so grateful that they either transferred some BACK to my Stars account or i was told to transfer them less than i originally quoted - apparently it was Karma [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

anyway, the money i made over the 3 nights(last Sat, Sun and Mon) was less than i would have(probably) made playing poker for the same length of time so it wasnt about making some easy money for me.

the best part of the whole thing for me was that these people actually trusted me to carry out this transaction for them. To me, that meant a lot more than the money i made outta the whole thing.

so to the one or two people who are criticising in this thread, who are you to tell someone else that they shouldnt be grateful? if someone is happy to have their cash back so be it and theres no need for you to start posting here about how so many made so much outta the whole thing.

and also suzy, i offered to transfer your NT balance last weekend but u wanted someone at the Commerce to deal with so theres no point in coming on now complaining about a 7% fee or $550 fee or whatever exactly it is you're complaining about when you could have that cash available to you now.

also, on a personal level, i dont think it was right that some started charging large fees once news of the NT closures starting breaking but thats just my opinion and generally my opinion doesnt mean much [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

to finish on a nice note, to those who posted their thanks, it was a pleasure and once again, it meant as much to me to be trusted with peoples money as it was for you all to actually have access to it again. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

OMG....it looks like suzy really gets around. I also offered to help her MANY times. On 3 seperate occasions she initiated contact with me thru AIM and wanted to cash out thru me. Each time was like "ok I am ready" or " [censored] it let's do it" and every single time she backed out at the last minute. I even responded to her post about bringing her money to Commerce bc I was going to be there last week of Feb. SHe said that it would be too late and that she wouldnt be there anymore but I can give it to her friends. I said I'd bring a cert check or bank draft and she still backed out!!! Every time she backed out, I was polite and said "ok np". If I knew that she was doing this to Mythra and Whatdoescallmean, I woulda told her where to go. What a complete waste of time. Anyone else get conned by her?

And as far as us making money and not doing it out of the kindness of our hearts.....give me a effing break. Everybody that I did transfers for were so appreciative of the fact that I and I'm sure others stayed on AIM with them the whole time. There were a few guys that I literally stayed on AIM for well over 3 hrs with just to they don't [censored] themselves. Suzy, you think it's so easy what we did?? You think we just clicked on a few buttons and made an easy 200 bucks each time? We literally had PMs coming in every 10-20 secs at times and I replied to almost everyone whether I was willing to help them or not. Some people took 20 PMs back and forth BEFORE even getting on AIM for them to feel comfortable enough to trust me. Once we're on AIM and the money doesnt come thru in 10 min, it's like "what's happening whats happening how come no money yet"? Sometimes I was doing 3 different people at once and I had to make sure I didnt get their screen names,2p2 names ,AIM names mixed up. I charrged some people more some less bc of their number of posts so when you get 20PMs coming in and you quote a guy 8% and anothter guy 7 % , and then they dont respond til 20 min later, you can't even rememebr what was quoted in the beginning bc I had talked to 10 guys in between. It was literally like an office job for 5 hrs a night. I guess any doctor who gets paid to save a life is in it for the money too , according to you.
Goddam ingrate.
