We will be moving the server for The Finer Things to a new datacenter. This move is to help improve access for the XLO Surf program which is located on the same server. The move to the new datacenter will mean increased speed for The Finer Things - which will improve access for everyone. The move is scheduled for Thursday 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM SERVER time. What will happen is that the site will be offline for at least 8 hours - probably 16 and maybe 24 hours. We will continue to make payouts while the server is offline but you cannot, under any circumstances, spend to the e-gold account directly. Just wait till the site becomes live again. One additional point. Many members are spending every day and it is possible that the website will be down for a good 12 hours (the time frame is uncertain). I have also made it very clear that the max per day was subject to review. So what we will do is - when the site comes back live - the max individual spend of 2k will stay but you will be able to do that twice a day if you like (the daily max will be $4,000 USD) If you are not a member of the forum at www.xlo-tftforum.com please join up as we will be posting updates there throughout the day. In summary - The Finer things site is scheduled to go offline at 9:00 AM SERVER time Nov 2 - which would be 8PM EST on 1 November 2006. We expect it to be back up and live by 11:00AM (EST) on the 2nd. To further complicate matters - e-gold is going to be offline for scheduled maintenance from 5:30 PM - 9:30 PM EST on 1 November. Payouts will be made around that downtime... http://www.e-gold.com/unsecure/downtime.html Please post your questions in the forum so that others may benefit from the answers. Thanks for your patience and your support. Andy |

He attends to every detail of both programs and pays almost immediately with both programs. He has a separate forum to further establish a rapport with members. I am 'comfortable' with his operations.... but this IS HYIP. Spend only what you can afford to lose. (IMO, it is a good risk). golddust |

I have just been notified that e-gold has placed a balance limit on the spend in acct for The Finer Things. This is a little bizzare as the contact information is correct - I have called e-gold twice thus far and will continue to do so until this is resolved. What I believe has happened is that The Finer Things was linked (vis the Money Maker Group) to some crappy failed program - there were posts on that forum where members of the other program were complaining. It now appears as if someone has complained to e-gold that we are not paying - hence the value limit. We have created a new acct to accept spends - while I get the situation with e-gold resolved. (Thus far two phone calls - I will just keep trying...) You are more than welcome to come to the forum to comment on this situation - and I do welcome your feedback. I will keep everyone updated. Thanks for your support Andy |

Sorry this has taken so long to get written OK Last night (my time) at around 2:30 am it looks like there was a brute force attack on the server and someone managed to sneak ina wrong e-gold acct for TFT. This was caught immediately but it took me just a little while to get it fixed and a half dozen or so spends went to the wrong acct. When he changed it he changed the text on the page so the members who did get caught had no idea it was wrong and I am buggered if I am going to have our people pay the cost of this person These people have all been refunded from my own pocket. The hole that this little person crawled through has been patched and now nailed shut.. ( I had notification at the time that spends were going to a wrong acct - it just took me a little while to get everything fixed.) I am considering options - including moving the whole thing offline (after all you know we dont need the database to pay out) and that will foil any malevolent person completely. However a final decision hasn't been reached yet. Everything is ok - but there are nasty people who infiltrate the web... WE WILL and (HAVE) be making sure the doors are locked a little (lot) tighter. Thank you for your patience - and your support. Andy |

Hey there With the growth in The Finer Things some of you may have noticed some web slowness - and every now and then a spend does not make it into your back office. So effective immediately we have decided to make some changes - which will help protect the integrity of the program TFT will no longer record the spends in an online database What does this mean? 1) All spends from now on going forward will not be entered into a database therefore they will NOT show in your online account - you will not have an online account any more 2) Previous spends will not show in your online account. (This facility will be removed very shortly.) 3) There will be two ways to spend to TFT a) Directly from your egold account to TFT egold account 3763976. No confirmation email will be sent for spends made this way. b) The same way you always have. Login to TFT and there will be a spend page. This page is not attached to an online database. If you spend from this page you will receive a confirmation email. 4) New members are still asked to sign up at the website so that we have a record of email address to notify of program details. 5) All terms remain the same except one. There will no longer be any referral bonuses.(  ) Tracking referral payments under these new arangements will be too cumbersome and time consuming.6) Payouts will be done after the maturity time expires, which is 30 days. You will now need to keep track (of your new spends) via your egold history. 7) As before, there is no requirement that you ask for your payout. They will be done automatically upon expiration. Why we decided to take away the TFT back office. There are a number of factors in making this decision. The strain on the server processing - with both TFT and the partner program XLO was meaning that more spends were not being processed through to the database in TFT. Additionally- by taking the program "offline" we are immune to various sorts of "online" attacks. We will pay to the egold acct you spend from - there is no possibility of your TFT account being hijacked by anyone else. These changes take place immediately - and any spends that are went "missing" today - and have not been returned will fall into these new arrangements. Please come along to the forum at www.xlo-tftforum.com and make your comments. As always we welcome your feedback and support. Andy |
| As you would all be aware TFT payouts have been continuing as per normal - many of you have utilised the "spend direct" option; this certainly gets around any issues that there may be there. |

There is going to be a twofold change to TFT. We have had a few problems with the earning vehicles used for TFT. My sense of why is connected to the recent actions of e-gold and a perceived dropping of confidence in them. Comments by many that e-gold was going to close has added to the general decline. While this is not my position - the way that we used to generate returns has been steadily dropping. Looking for the right alternatives is a daily process. Steadily dropping returns has meant that some incoming were used to pay existing obligations. The decline started early December and accelerated throughout the month. This has caused a cash flow issue . Within the HYIP arena there are such things as private placements - they tend to be "those things you hear about but never actually eventuate." My reading and research has shown them to be real - but previous to now I have not been able to access one directly. This has changed over the last little while. The reality part is that I cannot say a whole lot about it but I can assure you and reassure you that I have done my homework. This opportunity (high risk though it is) is one that I plan to capitalize on. The downside - the placement fees are high - we are talking serious money here. So after much discussion here is what I am going to do. All available TFT funds are to be diverted to this opportunity. This amount still does not meet the minimum required so the following will happen. Payouts will stop - for the course of the trade. TFT incoming spends will go to the placement. TFT will close on 3 January (1 week) ALL spends (all existing/outstanding ones + all new ones) will be paid in full as of January 31. To be clear - no more TFT payouts till Jan 31 then EVERYONE gets paid. Additionally a place in the forum will be set up for those who wish to participate more directly in the placement. Access to that is going to be at my discretion. I cannot empahise enough that this is a private offer. I cannot and will not dicuss publicly. Participation will be via e-gold - that doesn't change. Maximum amount to invest is under review. One more thing - once the amount needed to participate is reached all offers will be closed. We will not accept more than we need. Period. Now this is not a "going private" thing. It is an opportunity to pool funds to participate in a private arrangement. I also know (extremely well) that this is going to cause some discussion dissention crtiticism etc. I accept that - just as - on opening the program I accepted the responsibility to generate the returns to you in the most efficient manner possible. To head off queries -the most obvious being could TFT continue - based on the current (right now) trend - No. Could we trade out? I was and am going to try - and this is the option I have decided upon. Are refunds available - No they aren't. I had previously stated that if and when TFT closed everyone would be happy. This closure is sooner than I thought - but I am adjusting to the circumstance. It is my real belief that although the delay of payout until 30 days may cause some (a lot?) of pain for some, the fact that the program will payout every member in entirety is a plus. Now the other thing I need to mention. I reckon you have heard this spiel before - I think I have heard things along similar lines. Why should you believe me? To answer that I can only say that I am going into this trade openly and will keep people posted along the way as to progress. I am not closing the forum - nor XLO (which is it's own distinct program). I am working to provide each and every one of you the return you were after - circumstance has dictated that this will take longer than originally thought. In closing - I take full responsibility for this decision. I understand that is not going to be popular to all - but it is my thought out and considered opinion that it is the best option for everyone. Your comments are always welcome. Andy |

XLOsurf is one of the big survivors in the AS industry, over 8 mos running now. The Finer things is a high risk program, however, if it performs as described, it could very well become another Golden Rocks, (JMHO). The program offers 80% ROI after 30 days. The total return to your account is 180% of your spend. This is not a surf program, it is a High risk / High Yield opportunity. Payments are made after 30 days, to your egold account. http://xlentxtra.com/forum/ http://xlentxtra.com/ |
!! I almost choked. It appears to me Andy waited way too long before bringing up the situation to members even accepting spends up until the announcement. He claims that the freeze of all Iranian accounts by egold, limited trading activities, (if anyone can explain that to me, I'd be grateful), and he also paid December matured spends from new spends, but he also claims this never happened before.
