John353 if you have been stood up that many times you might need to start reevaluating which providers you are trying to see.

I have had maybe two incidents where I had to cancel on the same day of the appointment, but never had the fella demand extra time or a discount. If they did that I would cease contact with team, but I offer extra time with the folks I've had to miss just to let them know I am genuine and considerate of their time.

That can also create some issues. What happens if the provider who takes deposits has to cancel? What if she all of a sudden has to leave the hobby? What if the hobbyist only has a certain window of time to see providers and their schedules cannot match.

Another issue with deposits is the fact that some providers are not good with money. What is provider A is coming to Austin for 3 days and ten appointments and is a 300 hr gal and requires a 100 dollar deposit. Let's say she has ten appointments with deposits. What if she has some "emergency" and spends that grand. Will there be the same level of service at 200 hr? What if that money helped pay for her hotel, car rental, etc and its spent before she even arrives. I think deposits makes things a little more tricky if you ask me.

especially if it's going to cost you money to travel.

Well if one is going to travel you should save up a minimum for food, gas, car rental, hotel. One can cut down on food costs easily. You don't have to eat out at a nice restaurant every time you are out especially if travel if for WORK. It sometimes takes money to make money

sixx, that sounds reaallly expensive.

Lynn, you've been out in Syracuse before?

On a separate note, providers, have you multi booked clients during the same time slots and have had to cancel that way, or just ignore the calls all together? I think as a hobbyist, the most frustrating thing is showing up at the parking lot, calling the provider a few times and not get an answer, only to have to drive back home feeling like crap.

The past leaves lasting impressions sometimes.

A professional companion (especially one that cares about her reputation) would never do this.

I am an email only provider meaning I don't list my number anywhere for men to call me. They book me 24-48 hours in advance. The men I spend time with don't have to worry about my phone ringing off the hook. BTW a provider should always turn off her phone during an appointment.

Having said all that, I've never made a guy wait out in the parking lot. The time we agree on is the time he should be knocking on my door.

That is a gesture of good will. That's the way it should be.

You're a newbie to the boards use it to see ladies that dont pull that crap, you are now part of the info highway.. If you're a TOFFT thrill seeker well.. it comes with the territory. Start utilizing what the board, tin eye, Google, etc offer.. You will less likely to have that happen ever again.



Im based there.
