Bangbros and 1080p Can any current member of BB please tell me how to find the 1080p videos on their page? For some reason, I only see 720p vids, although BB as well as TBP are advertising 1080p. | |

I think its available to only premium members. I myself have tried it some time ago but failed. [ SIG Spam Removed by PU Admin ] | |

If you read the error report on TBP about BB than you'll see that 1080p is not available on all of BB's sites. they don't actually teell you where it is and isn't so my solution is that yu check out different BB sites and see if it is. if you do find out that it's no longer available on any of their sites then submit an error report and the TBP staff can look into it for you. Long live the Brown Coats. | |

Well (see my comment on the site's page) there is no mention anywhere that you need a premium membership to get the 1080p videos, except after you sign up. There is also deliberate deception because, if you take their tour, you will see that all their most recent updates sport a 1080p within the HD button and this is what you expect to get. I do wish that TBP made it more obvious that the ordinary subscription to this site doesn't give you what is advertised. It would also be nice if there were an official mention somewhere that the site has turned into a trap, trying to entice you to upgrade to a full membership. I thought I was getting a full membership when I subscribed recently. Bunch of sleazy opportunists .. and it was such a good site at one time. | |

Every single update is marked 1080p on their tour, Pat. One does not have to go from site to site in order to find them. Bangbros have become crooks, plain and simple, since all you get when you attempt to download those so-called 1080p videos is 720p. I am repeating what I wrote in my comment: I wrote an email to support in connection with this deception, got a formulaic answer telling me how to download an HD video in mp4 (720p) but not responding to my original query how to get the 1080p version. A second email remained unanswered. Hook the customer with a cheap subscription price, lead him to a page of "upgrades" when he first signs in rather than to the home page with the latest updates .. these guys could stand an investigation for downright deception. And last time was such a positive experience. Either they have become desperate or they are under new management. Edited on Dec 23, 2012, 10:51am | |

Thanks, messmer! I guess I will avoid BB in the future. Pretty dissapointing, this trend lately (not just BB, other sites as well... see my harmonyvision review). | |

Have either of you guys submited an error report to TBP? The one I checked in reference to 1080p was in August so maybe BangBros changed their site after that date. The last time TBP updated their facts was in September. Maybe it's time they made another verification and altered their information to reflect the current state of 1080p videos.

Good idea, Pat. Unless Khan has read this thread and has taken steps already to check things out an error report might be a good thing. | |

I mentioned this one to one of our editors. They took a quick look and said some of the BangBros sites are listed w/ 1080 and some are not. They also mentioned we don't currently have login access to all the BangBro sites. They *did* mention that it looked like something odd was going on. What they suggested was this ... For each site you find that advertises 1080 (on the tour or our listing) but does not have 1080 in the members' area, submit an error report.

Thanks, Khan. The strange thing is that ALL the recent updates from their various sites are listed as 1080p within the HD button (check their tour) yet when you download that particular update it is available in 720p only. I have not yet come across any site that had a 1080p video for download. Maybe there is a premium membership where they would be available but that option is nowhere listed when you sign up. Something is indeed going on. It is called misleading advertisement. In any case my subscription has now expired and the site has been black listed by me, never to be visited again. Once again, thanks for your hands-on way of looking after us! | |

This is one of those sites that always leaves me wondering why people continue to join - especially the people who are active on PU. Their history of deception and seemingly shady business practices scream, "No fucking way!" to me. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

Last time I joined it wasn't that obvious to me, RB. Everything appeared to be above board. I guess I was one of the fortunate ones. This time, however, it didn't take long to see how blatantly unethical they were. | |

With all the complaints I've seen about this site over the years, I guess it comes down to playing a game of Russian roulette. You shouldn't have to be lucky when joining a site just to not have "issues". Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

There are a lot of complains about BB, that's true. However, I guess that's a thing that comes with the size of a site. The bigger the site (in terms of recognition/market share/subscribers), the more can go wrong with individual customers from around the world and the higher the probability that some customers are also active on a board like this, sharing their experiences. It's just a matter of statistics. I'm in no way defending bad customer service or even the attemt to rip off people. However, based on my job, I know that the feedback on forums rarely represents the real image. | |
