I have contacted a couple of providers recently who have asked for a deposit.   Is this a red flag? I understand why they may want a deposit but have never been asked before.

I have gotten many deposits from gentleman in Colorado, who profile's is like yours. A year old no REVIEWS Or Reference?  Having an account on TOB with no recent Reviews or Reference yes some will require a deposit. Your considered not VeRiFiEd. We just want to stay safe. I use it as a verification and a promise for You to show up. As I don't live in Colorado but fly in 3-5 times a month. I have plenty of REVIEWS and half of them have sent me deposits to come see them. So I guess it depends on if you really want to see that Lady. Do Your Research. And get REVIEWS or Reference and you can by pass the deposit phase.

Just my 2 cent

Smart girl. Expenses are high when traveling. It's a good idea to get deposits, especially from clients who don't have reviews, or a list of references from established, well reviewed local providers who can attest they're not time wasters. If you've figured out how to make it work, then lots of props to you!!! 👏👏👏💙💙💙

 I never used to do this but I hundo P do this nowadays. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to ask for a deposit when being asked to travel two or more hours to an appointment there’s no risk in giving a provider a deposit because if she doesn’t show up then you can write reviews all over the place and hurt her that way for not holding up her end of the deal .  but if a provider drives 2 Or more hours to an appointment and it happens to be a bogus appointment or doesn’t get paid when she gets there she has no recourse whatsoever ...sure she can turn around and walk away and go home  . But thats crapola. so I think that asking for a deposit for anything more than a 2 Hour Drive is completely reasonable.  Asked for cash pain individuals there’s a little app called Venmo that works wonderful so there’s no problem and it’s only fair. The only exception that I would give is for my boys on the board because I know in them so long And they would never pull any crap Ola but there’s a lot of guys out there that aren’t on the board and we girls need to cover our butts all right well that’s all I got say on that subject

I have no problem paying a deposit. I only see providers that I feel I can trust, and If it helps them to trust me more, I am all for that.

Deposit?

In related news: Hell just froze over.

I’m sure they mean well. All the same, just avoid.

Why so? 

In my opinion if they are asking for less the $40 deposit it’s not a big deal. It’s also a good way to know your not LE as well. 

That’s my thoughts but I guess it’s all a matter of perspective.

Now, now boys...deposits aren’t that crazy. 

Just please only consider this with reputable ladies and have a solid plan in place. 

 

I have asked only a few times and on people who have had multiple no shows and then they stop BSing and never contacted me again (probably some of the same game players all the other girls deal with) or they did the deposit and showed up.

I salute you pretty lady.

It's not the principle of posting a deposit that I mind - I have never no-showed, and sometimes require a deposit from my customers.  It's the mechanics of posting it that keeps me with the cash-and-carry ladies.  I will absolutely never use any form of app or other credit card, etc, arrangement for this sport - no paper or electron trails for the bad boy.  I suppose if I could drive over, knock on the door, look her in the eye and hand her a $50 bill, and then leave until the appointment, I guess that would work, but that's about it.

I must admit, I have never been asked for a deposit - must be my sterling reputation

If one lives up in the mountains and wants a lady to come calling to their residence.

Western Union, MoneyGram, etc is one way.

Yeah you give out your REAL INFO, but you also have her REAL INFO.

 

A lady driving 2-4 hours up into the mountains for a 2+ hour appointment needs to assured that she isn't wasting her time and maybe even risking her life to get out to you.

It is a risk you take to have someone COME TO YOU, especially since you are basically asking her to completely give up a day or two just to see you.

Well, if you think a human being is equivalent to a truck, just buy a real doll, and leave escorts for others, like me. You should be very happy.

What does the SO say about this Pfunk?

[acmb2017]

I have yet to make an appointment via deposit. That being said I would only consider said method of meeting if the lady had a VERY strong history. 

If you are a new lady with no verifiable history,  we are not a good match. Move along and all that.

I do understand the need/desire to cover yourself but also you better be A+ reputation, and even then I think it all boils down to how you require said deposit.

In the end you and I will do what is acceptable to our own needs.
