I worked for Livelines for over a year.
The main office staff have the personality and politeness of rats.
Your wages are consistently docked, and it’s highly unlikely you will be informed of this before it happens.
It is mandatory, despite it being an adult chat line, that you occasionally take calls of a non-sexual nature, of which you are informed prior to speaking to the client.
If there is any mention whatsoever of an adult nature then your wages will be paid at the basic rate. In my case I’d done over 40 hours and was supposed to get around £380 for 2 weeks work. Because I’d mentioned breasts in the conversation I had £100 deducted from my pay, which I wasn’t warned about..
This is fair enough to an extent, as I’m well aware that the company must abide by certain law’s, However the fact that the ‘Clean’ chat number is advertised on several adult channels on sky, quite frequently made this difficult for me, and very disappointing for the client.
As you have to do a nightshift, between 12am and 6am, occasionally I would be so exhausted I’d be half asleep when speaking to a randy gentleman.
The main ladies of the lines, the office staff have absolutely abysmal telephone skills. They did not even abide by the simple polite gesture of saying ‘goodbye’ after calling me and ordering me to do shifts, which is incredibly ironic due to the nature of the job.
Unless you want to be spoken to like a piece of dirt on the bottom of a tramps shoe, (that’s from the office staff, not the clients), and consistently have your wages taken from you, I would recommend never contacting this company for work. They are absolutely appalling.
