New Feature for Premium Members: Email advertisement to members in public chat.

This is a feature to reward Premium Members for being helpful in public chat. Please note abuse of this feature could allow you to lose this feature.

We have thousands of members that would like to have more help on learning to use Orange Leads. In order to do that I have created the public chat room. All members here, free and premium, are welcome to offer legitimate help and just good socializing. By doing so you gain the trust and goodwill of other members, who will then click on your "cool link" and see what business you are in.

As another reward for our premium members, an email with your advertisement will be sent to the person asking for help.

In public chat an email is sent to the last person that posted, to notify them that someone has responded in public chat.

The premium member feature is: Included in that email will be an advertisement from the premium member, assuming the premium member is the one that responded first.

Once a person has received an email that someone has responded, they will not receive any more emails until they come in and make another post. That is why you would have to be the first person to respond in order for your advertisement to be sent out to the member via email.

You may submit up to 6 lines of advertisements 65 characters each per line:

Credit Card Outage - Update
Some good news on the credit card front:

Our Legal team is currently reviewing a contract we have with a new bank. After we get their approval and sign the contract, we will be integrating with our PCI compliant gateway provider for the bank. After some testing, credit cards will be available once again. We are doing everything we can to ensure that this process is a quick one! We are still looking at a few weeks for the full turn around time.

I have added a count to your Orange Leads home page so you know how many people have visited. You will also get an email when someone visits. I would recommend getting to "my account" and editing your "about me" information so you can get more exposure for whatever business opportunity you are promoting, OR looking to join.


3/29/2009

I have added a feature to your Orange Leads member page. You may add up to 10 pictures. Pictures need to be uploaded elsewhere on the internet, such as Google or PhotoBucket.com, myspace, etc. You can then put the URL to the picture on your personal Orange Leads member page.

To edit your members page log into orange leads and then click on "my account" in the upper right side menu of links. You will then see new boxes at the bottom of your page to enter the pictures and descriptions.


3/28/2009

I have added a new search engine on the very top of the control panel for OrangeLeads.com. Now you can search all of Orange Lead members.

Examples of the new powerful search features: Are you in Australia? Then you can search Australia and find all members that have listed Australia in their personal information. Do you want to work with Buddhist marketers? Search Buddhist. Do you want an expert with Herbalife? Search Herbalife. The networking possibilities are endless.

I have also fixed the problem with break commands showing up on your personal pages. If you have them now just go to "my account" and re-enter your "about me" information.

The search will bring up premium members on top, and then free members below. If more than one premium member comes up in the results, the premium member that upgraded first shows up on top.

I will also have an "advanced search" very soon so you can decide how you want results sorted and get more specific options.

Good luck, and good networking!!

Sorry about the problem with the control panel today, its fixed now. One of the tables I moved over in mysql was corrupted.

However, now we have the main OrangeLeads.com website on a new very fast server, and I have the database for the blogs on a different server, and the movies and a lot of heavy loading graphics over on amazon cloud.

This should really speed up your use of OrangeLeads.com.

I will continue to do what I can to make this the best place for your business opportunity needs.

Coming very very soon, exclusive for Orange Leads members. Only Orange Leads members can sell RetailBucks.com. Free members will receive $8.00 per month from every sale on their first level. Premium members can earn $4 per month from every sale unlimited levels down if only free members between you and the sale. Click here to see RetailBucks.com


3/16/2009

I have added a new feature for OrangeLeads.com members. If a premium member's monthly payment, (or annnual when the time comes), does not clear. Their account will be suspended. When they try to log in they will see this note: "Your premium membership account has been suspended. You can renew by choosing one of the payment options below. If you prefer to start over with a free membership, click here to create a new account."

They will then be provided with links to make payment under your account. If they choose to start a free account again, they will be using your link to join under you again. This should help to keep some of your upgraded members active longer.

I am moving some of the bigger files, such as the training movies to amazon. They have a 15 billion dollar computer network and have been offering "cloud" hosting since 2006.

When someone in Hong Kong plays my training video, amazon's servers finds the closest server to them and plays it from there.

In addition of course they have extremely powerful computers and large internet connections.

The only one I have on there right now is "how to find your free leads" to make sure they feed ok.

Here are the latest updates from Alertpay.com. Those of you that are premium members here at Orange Leads may want to switch over to Plimus until Alertpay gets their visa/mastercard back. They are expecting a couple weeks or so to do this.

It is very easy to switch to plimus, just go to "my account" then click on the button in the orange box that says "Choose Alertpay.com or Plimus.com" and follow the simple instructions inside.

Later you may easily switch back to alertpay.com

Credit Card Outage - Update
We want to give you an update before the weekend. At this time, we still have no further news regarding the credit card outage. We hope to resolve the issue in the next two weeks. We are making changes so this outage does not occur again since this has hurt us as a company, and -- most importantly -- you as a member.

We are working on this issue from many angles, and will have more news shortly. Please note that you can still use an American Express credit card.

5 Easy Ways To Fund Your AlertPay Account
Dear members,


Guess what? AlertPay is still working smoothly and is actively processing transactions! AlertPay members are paying with their AlertPay balance while credit card processing for Visa/MasterCard is temporarily unavailable. We are actively working to resolve this and do not have a time frame of when it will be resolved yet.

How to fund your AlertPay Balance?

AlertPay offers several accessible funding options which many members prefer to use rather than a credit card. Once you fund your AlertPay account, you can use it to transfer money to friends, family, or business associates, to shop online, or pay bills. We offer different funding options for different people:

• Bank Wire (worldwide)
• Bank Transfer (43 countries supported locally)
• Certified Check/Cashier’s Check (worldwide)
• Money Order (worldwide)
• Transfers from other AlertPay members


Did you know …

Some of our successful Business and Payment account holders use their AlertPay balance for their remittances, commission payouts, and payroll needs. In fact, the largest single remittance transfer was approximately $1,400,000 USD. If they can use their AlertPay balance without issue, you can too!

Thank you for using AlertPay. We appreciate your business and support while we overcome these obstacles.

Alertpay has this notice on their blog at: http://www.blog.alertpay.com/

We have just received notice from our new credit card processor that we cannot process VISA or MasterCard credit card payments at this time. This problem has its roots in our relationship with MasterCard. To comply with their regulations, we kept credit card limits to a minimum, barred certain account types from receiving MasterCard payments, and have maintained a very good record with them. Yet they have suspended our account with them.

This recent issue started when one of our new merchants was in the process of getting their account verified, and received their first MasterCard payment yesterday. This payment was apparently in violation of card association rules and the agreement we have with our acquiring bank.

We received notice today that our account with MasterCard is suspended because of this one payment. MasterCard has the option of working with us to rectify the matter, yet they would prefer to end our mutually beneficial relationship. We process thousands of transactions a day, and because of this one payment, we now have another credit card outage to overcome.

Please note that we have a strict policy against these violations as stated quite clearly in our User Agreement. We try to prevent them from happening by closely monitoring the transactions we process. However, some pass under our radar. When a transaction violates our agreement with our banking and credit card partners, we do everything in our power to solve the problem. Unfortunately, Mastercard’s approach is not conducive to ours.

We understand that all of these issues are very frustrating for you, and we assure you that they are also very frustrating for us. We must ask you once again to please bear with us while we find a remedy for this issue.

We are now looking for a more reliable and proactive banking partner to provide merchant services for our members.

Thank you all for your patience and understanding.
