Another annoying update

Okay so seriously.  Vimeo is partnered with Patreon right now..... I think they are out to scam people out of money for bandwidth usage.  Even though My videos only get maybe 2k views a video.  

They are threatening to freeze my vimeo unless I pay 27k..... 27K WHAT?!


Also ONE PIECE reaction will be up tonight.  Sorry dealing with emailing them on the side is stressing me out.

Another annoying update

I called them out on this behavior as extortion on a post on their Facebook page the other day and they just deleted the whole post.

Michael Hingston

You might be particularly vulnerable to it as well, given your role as a vlogger.

dg co

I think this is totally spear phishing. Whoever this person is, they're pretending to be vimeo. I wouldn't click on any links or anything like that.

jon keller

are you sure its actually them and not a scammer spear phishing you? (a form of phishing where the fraud is catered and directly targeting an individual in order to be more effective)

Raynac

I told you that shit sounded like a whole scam.

PaperFox19

they are brain dead holy shit

Webster91

geezus you would need a second job to pay for that!

Raynac

Just stick w/ MEGA

OtakuDeNoche

Dont know what you Guys mean, she´s already using MEGA too? ^^

Speziald

I would just switch to MEGA, another reactor I watch deals with them and so far, haven't had to deal with any of this. I am pretty sure a lot of your fans will understand.

Just switch to MEGA. I wouldn't deal with that.

GoldArthur

Has to be a scam since there are no related links on google flaming Vimeo on it.

GotherL

That's a rip off.

theshittycook

Still a lot xD

Blackeye

Its only 200$ a Year, not a Month :D

Speziald

If i were u and they tell me to pay 27k for this i will give them this 🖕and shut down my acc they should be grateful ur paying $200 a month for their shit site

Blackeye

use mega

Duke

we finna need help from the king of the pirates and above tier😳

Namiboob

MEGA wouldn't work so well, most of us don't pay to pay on MEGA so we wouldn't be able to watch most reactions due to the limit.

Sheeya

Because it takes time to process the upload, because she's having issues with the service she's uploading to, because she's in a different time zone, because she's still editing the reaction, because she fell asleep waiting for it, because something else came up and she knows that the vast majority of us don't fault her for being a few hours late....of course, then there are the guys like you with 0 understanding of any of that who just like to complain. And furthermore, it's astonishing that you are actually making that complaint on a post about how she's stressed out and her video provider is trying to extort thousands of dollars from her. Is reading a difficult concept for you or do you really just not give a shit about the person you are here to watch? Cause if you're just here to watch OP, there are dozens of anime sites for that.

Resticon

Oyyyy f that. Hope it works out.

PowderedToastMan

How come every time Jamie says "OP will be up today" it never comes on that day, always the day after... 😞

Nakos

Definitely fake, especially if she is using any anime sites that have pop-ups and things like that. They can easily infect your PC and get a hold of your E-mail or Vimeo account details. If that happens, they can send you fake E-mails that look real, or even freeze the account. Since they've already got access to it at that point. There's no way any website that has any credibility would ask for a lump sum of money like that for your account. It's always a monthly/yearly payment (not to mention a reasonable amount, at most $100 a year. Even that amount is pushing it though.)

Ghost Tendency

That's honestly wild and I doubt anyone has actually decided to cave and pay that fee. It's almost like they want to drive people away from using their site. Perhaps just use daily motion or something for now? If you're being sent that demand via email, do NOT click on it just to be sure. Access Vimeo how you normally would and find their contact information. I know you've said that it's happened to other reactors but it's incredibly difficult to believe that any company who wants people to actually use their service would employ such off-putting tactics. Email them WITHOUT replying to how you got that extortion message and ask them about that ridiculous fee that way and see what they say about it. Even though they might be able to freeze your account, it's still possible that it might be being done by a third party who's using fishing tactics to trick you into thinking the action is legitimate.

FrofiFly

Vimeo charges multiple different rates none of which come anything close to 27k infact their highest rate is 75 USD per month. So whatever is trying to extort all this money regardless of their ability to freeze an account isn't Vimeo but an outside agitator. So I plead to anyone caught up in any of this, do not give over any financial information over to anyone requesting such an absurd outside of contract payment.

Yeah that’s crazy do what you need to do, f them tbh

Rude-boyy

Problem is that this happened to another reactor and their account got frozen in the end. Definitely not fake - they're just INCREDIBLY desperate.

Tijmen Bergman

That's not legit. I assume it's spam ware, don't pay it any mind.

This looks like a scam, quit Vimeo if that's the kind of cash they expect :P

Murkrow

Mfs better be talking beli

Luisssssss

The sales agreement that you have with them, your subscription contract or whatever should be rather clear in this regard. If your plan says "unlimited" then something like this shouldn't be happening on any serious platform. Same thing with concrete bandwidth numbers. These should've been set in stone from the start, not allowing room for unexpected changes like this. Isn't that number specified anywhere and can't you monitor your monthly usage live? This sounds so scammy.

Pom de Terre

Yea they big trippin

iLight

Yikes that's crazy! Are there any alternative sites you can use? D:

SomeoneElse

Why don’t you try using the DailyMotion website I have no idea if it will work though

Phantaminum

Ayooooo that’s wild

PABLOFLEXCOBARR

The worst part is that they most likely already included this bullshit in your "terms and conditions", that they can charge you whatever fee they wanted if your bandwidth use deviates from what is acceptable to them. They don't have a "D-" rating from BBB for nothing.

GS

Everyone go to vimeo app and go give them a negative review.

One piece is out there

They are acting like Activision with their Micro Transactions

Phantaminum

Take your time and get it figured out. We will be here when you’re ready. 😁

Ernest Mitchell

Was about to say the same thing. Words like "unlimited" or concrete bandwidth numbers mentioned in the agreement are clear enough. There should be exactly zero ambiguity or unexpected change.

Pom de Terre

I thought it was fake too but it is coming from an actual Vimeo email

Mechi

27k L0L fuck vimeo

Blackeye

I don't even understand how that is possible when Vimeo Plus offers Unlimited Bandwidth for $7/month and Vimeo's 4th and highest tier Premium Plan caps out at $75/month. This is extortion. No way in hell should you even consider paying that. Reading a lot of reviews and there are some serious horror stories about Vimeo randomly deleting people's accounts instantly by simply claiming "adult content" when there isn't any and since everything gets deleted there is no way to get a review either. The more I read, the more they sound like scam artists.

Resticon

i would almost suggest it's fake, because thats how outrageous it is. that amount of money is crazy. vimeo really trying to scam people that use their service? damn

B00ch

Confucius once said :"If it ain't broke, don't fix it; if it ain't free, don't use it." (I am just joking of course)

Hairy Potter

Gotta use your Haki when dealing with them

cyd francois

Scam scam no mi

Sage Sensei

They for real trippin

MrOreo133

Get out while u can

Jasmeet Singh

Thats so weird and random of them, hopefully they stop this shite. It was the most convenient site you post full reactions on for me, I dont like using mega lol

Maginpui

Yeah don’t pay them no matter what lol just trying to get your money

Is this Vimeo or Yakuza gang

Teshin Maniparnratna

Yeah, DITCH VIMEO and use MEGA as well as others.

gomugomubrooo

They know you got the clout lolol

Ricky Duong

No OBJECTIONS there.😋

gomugomubrooo

$27k? Its 2300USD/ mth lol!

JoanneLorac

I agree with the guy above, Mega is good enough. Have you looked for better alternatives? I know these but I don't know if you can unlist videos on them: DTube, PeerTube, BitChute

Hmm 27k seems fair...LOL

Freikugel

Vimeo wanting a teacher's salary over here wtf 😂😂

SupremeCai

I won't mind if you stop using vimeo. Mega is good enough

I previously wrote they won't ever be able to compete with Youtube. I rest my case. They'll probably close in the span of few years.

Shendue

fuck vimeo! There are so many ways to get video up. pls stop using vimeo. Use dailymotion, MEGA or google drive. the thing about google drive is youhave a limited numbers of views. but mega and dailymotion should cover for that. PLEASE READ THIS. I GOT YOU

Yeetyeetyeet

they actually froze her account and then she reached out to someone. Hasn't heard from them since. So hopefully they will leave me alone eventually

Mechi

I’m here to support u no matter what so try not to stress so much. 😊

Geovanny Ortiz

Told you, they are a scam company, don't fall for this crap, just choose another host. Also, 27k is totally made up, they just pulled a ridiculous number out of their asses, like.... its not even realistic lol. Don't be stressed Jamie, take your time and don't worry too much about it, we can wait for you to find a better host <3

Mattie

Wtf nice try, fuck vimeo and patreon, just search for other ways of getting content up

Absolutely ridiculous. Don’t fall for it.

Mystrohan

Take your time. Don't go quietly into the night.

EvanKing

I have a feeling inner Jamie-chan is about to come out cause of this. She’s about to unleash the 13 words, lol. Hope you can fix the problem with them.

Jimmy Orchid

Do they actually think someone is gonna pay that! What kind of crack are they on!

Icy Blaze

Yeah, something about that Vimeo thing doesn't sound right. I'm sure you'll get it all straightened out and we can put this weirdness behind us. 27k? Geeeeeeze.

Chris Poveroni

You're better off getting your own site hosted by someone like Kinsta. It might probably be a bit pricey depending on how many views you get a month but at least it won't be $27k LOL. You can just upload the raw videos and share the links. No need for a fancy site or anything.

ednapls

Patreon BARELY would cover any of that especially after taxes. They are tripping

Mechi

wow... even with that amount i can buy a house ... dang!, vimeo know how to do business :))

MasAden

You could do what you did in the past where you upload it to Mega and we can view it like that alongside uploading it to google drive as well.

Nyb

roughly 2300USD a month, for what? You can get a private server for WAY less(200 USD max) and have the same results. Don't pay any of it...

Derper Octinger

They told me it wasn't even the downloading issue, it is just the watch time. which I am like "is this company going bankrupt or something?

Mechi

It’s the scam of the century, her gd got disbanded cause of copyright.

Jimmy Orchid

I've seen streamers been using DLive recently, for live-streaming anime. Not sure how that would work for video uploads though. Have a look into it if you haven't already, and if Google Drive and other services aren't favourable options. Vimeo is literally trying to charge you for $$ per MB of download based on their basic plans rate, which is retarded because usually services charge the people who actually download the videos rather than people who upload the videos. They are trying to TAP INTO that juicy profit flow, fuckers aren't even Toei. At least Toei did produce One Piece anime so Toei (and other studios) copyright videos to get profit (which is also ridiculous, but not as ridiculous as this), but Vimeo didn't do shit and yet they try to scam you even more than Toei smh.

Akachi

So wait why did they almost triple the price you have to pay

That is truly insane 😵 do not send that type of cash hell "NO"

MrxPresident

Not to invade or anything but itsnt 27k about what you make from patreon and youtube combined? Wtf patreon.

Saggad Hassan

That is like buying a new car every year D:

NekoUrabe

Well I think they just know how precious your videos are :)

Yeah she is helping me deal with this now

Mechi

I thought allonas was crazy they wanted 9k from her... 27k from me should be illegal LOL

Mechi

I don't know how Allona got away with them, but I think she just ignored them

maabdii

They crazy lol Just upload to Google Drive or MEGA

Tanbir Morshed

Lol, and i thought patreon was the safe haven from scamming.

Saggad Hassan

Holy cow THAT IS CRAZY!!!!!

Loky

Nigga how much? 😂 Vimeo tripping

Prime Echo

AllonaShareeTV has had a ton of the same issues! Sounds scummy.

SupremeCai

wow, they sound like out of country scammers right now
