According to several recent stories posted at AdultFYI [source] there have been some serious problems at Bluebird Films including talks of former contract star Dylan Ryder suing them for lack of payment and the loss of the person who heads up their websites. Other stories on the same site mention that Paul Chaplin has stopped funding Bluebird Films USA and well the long and short of it is, looks like if Bluebird Films owes you money you are SOL.
Gene Ross at Adult FYI provides no actual proof of these allegations. He only goes on to quote unnamed sources. But he makes mention more than a few times of people being owed money so it seems if Paul Chaplin did cease funding the company that would explain things.
Another thing to note is that Dylan Ryder via a press release and twitter did confirm her departure from Bluebird but she did not indicate any troubles at that time.
Via twitter Kelli Roberts their former head of their websites did tweet a confirmation of her departure from Bluebird as well.

@MissKelliXXX tweets : So there is no confusion … I am no longer with Bluebird Films and I did not have anything to do with any stories out there like@adultfyi. I will not discuss anything with Bluebird, good or bad. I don’t ever ever ever discuss clients. That’s just silly. Plus to me all clients are fabulous – no matter what I always always learn something from them
BabeShows.com, the companies official forums have seen a rash of posts recently complaining about lack of affiliate payments, shotty customer service and problems with their websites. Here is one post from a board regular davos11 who writes
“You’d think this company doesn’t want paying customers…., Im sick an tired of waiting months (actually over a year since this film was due to be released) for a scene , then getting snotty or insulting answers and replys when you ask simple questions. Just curious …..but why do you have a problem answering questions when that’s the sole purpose of both the forum and the job your paid to do ? Ill take my questions and custom elsewhere.”
