I know my experience here is special. I have my own expectations.

I've been using Tryst. Oddly (maybe ironically) a lot of the providers on that site aren't well reviewed here. Sometimes the reviews here (on eccie) are tough to parse out - Santa's Little Helper being one. Even the positive review has me asking questions. My alarm bells ring loudly when providers are even the slightest bit shady. The last one I contacted myself was a CMT who claimed they don't schedule out more than two days in advance. Which may or may not be true, but when I'm leaning towards that type of service, I would prefer a greater level of standard professionalism (again, as opposed to the provider named above, who I might already guess is flakey).

I was really active in this hobby many years ago when backpage and craigslist were a thing, and it was easy to find a single provider and just make my appointment every 4-6 weeks. The providers I've been in contact with nearly absolutely need references. I'm almost to the point of biting the bullet on some of the more established providers who I'm not particularly interested in, just to get the references...

Have you considered joining p411? I know it may not be for everyone, but the two sites you mentioned using previously are kind of like STG and LC today with what seems to be in general a higher rate of poor outcomes based on many reviews in terms of communication issues, underwhelming service, and shady locations. I guess my point is if YOU are not happy with the outcomes your receiving, perhaps look at alternative options on where to shop.

This seems so strange to me that gents have this level of striking out. I can only think of one lady I've scheduled in the last several years who NCNS me and she did have reviews here, and posted on both tryst and p411 at the time. (She's no longer posting on either site, as I think her poor business practices on those sites led to her getting very little business). Research, research, research, is all I can say. And don't schedule dates for the current day or on short notice.

Great advice KCFalcon77

I was ghosted several times.
I’m very low volume and if someone requests multiple hours I’m not seeing anyone else that day. Ruins my day, my week and my month .
Multiple hours booked with no show , no call, or the last min
Something came up, but they never reschedule.
Last one was 2 weeks ago, a four hour booking!
All of these were new clients, or wouldn’t been, I never met up with any of them.
Maybe being done deliberately so providers all start asking for deposits
Then they will post as provider and get deposits more easily, and they are possibly scammers?
Idk, maybe I’m just not trusting anyone , but I’m being bombarded with scams since Jan 1st.
