How participants in Russia are getting paid with current sanctions

It looks that Visa and Mastercard followed the move of western financial insutions banning russian banks

With Swift also blocking transactions to Russia, how VHTV would pay partcipants located in Russia? Are we going to see more appartments going offline in the next few weeks ?

I don’t think the business practices of VHTV are any of our business nor how they pay their managers or participants is it?

But this is something that can affects my membership if more appartments will be gone offline. I pay a premium membership and this is a legitimate question

If there are going to be less then I fully agree with you, but the point about the method of payment to whoever then I cannot agree with you. :slight_smile:

If this doesn’t affect the appartments numbers or their location (I’m not much into South American appartments), I wouldn’t care how VHTV find a workaround to keep those appartments.

The way participants are payed is nothing to be discussed here in public. Thanks for understanding :+1:

We are watching events rolling and are prepared to switch to reserve channels to provide funds to our studios & participants. The workflow hasn’t changed for us and we keep everything operating.

Apart from that, these are internal matters of our project. In case you become unsatisfied with our service, you can always cancel upcoming re-bills and join back whenever you like in the future.

Thank you for clarifying as long you keep the same approximate number of appartments in the same area ( I’m not much into South American appartments) I would remain satisfied with the service. I don’t care how you find other channed to keep those studios as long you can keep them

Are going to accept new people requests to participate these days if any, or you’ve decided not expand number of flats now?

Are you volunteering Waldi for the camera? Go on I dare you, could be fun seeing you snore at night times, with your feet poking out of the bed. I know ‘some’ people would get excited by that. :rofl: :rofl:

Pretty sure most planned openings are not effected.

Nothing like that, I’m just curious :grin:

Disappointed :sob: :sob:

You wouldn’t see anything interesting anyway; I’m old, fat, ugly, and most of the time out of the flat :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I would also add that Participants in Russia are just ordinary people like us who just want to move on with their lives and have nothing to do With Putin. So it’s unfair to punish them.

Well there are many chocolates flavours and some like the popular ones, and some like the less popular ones. :slight_smile:

No one here even thought of punishing them in any kind of way, lol

I see a lot of forum members supporting sanctions against Russia on the other thread and they don’t realize that this can affect some of the participants they are watching

Only seen it once on here and the guy was jumped on made to look a fool. :slight_smile:
