Shifting ground there pfunk. You went from a generic appointment deposit to a specific appointment type deposit. In general, there's no positive to the gent. The benefit is entirely on the provider's side. A provider can run their business any way they choose. Painting deposits as a positive to the client is just a marketing ploy to the daft. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps you'll notice that she said there's a positive to deposits for the customer and acknowledge that that's a simple untruth. There's no positive to the customer. If there is no positive, why do some clients send deposits without requesting one? Better yet prepay in full without a provider requesting? They're getting something positive out of it. Some peace if mind or enjoyment. People don't do that kind of thing for no reason. I think it's just hard for some to imagine there is a whole other world of this industry that they aren't experiencing, and all we have to go on is our experiences. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, Hunter, there must be two entirely different "hobby" worlds: The one I live in where beautiful ladies respond to my inquiries, I make an appointment, we both keep it, there is no haggling or menu and we have a wonderful time exploring each other for exactly 60 or 90 minutes; and the one where folks are rude, inconsiderate, and just plain nasty, ghosting appointments, haggling, complaining about "services" and not having much fun at all. Y'all in the second world ought to consider joining Hunter and I in this world, it is great. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you offer two options, 1 & 2, with the only difference being option 2 requires a deposit, what percentage of your customers would pick option 2?

Posted July 7, 2020 Within the last 2 weeks I've met with a couple providers, each requiring a deposit. YL 1 required 200 to drive from the Springs up to Loveland/Greeley and secure hotel before leaving. The day she was supposed to come up things happened and I thought I had been scammed. Still not sure about the reasoning, but date occurred and deposit was taken off total. YL 2 required a 30 dollar deposit for same drive. Played cat and mouse and then couldn't leave film she made $150. Made a deal to take care of that, and she sent pictures proving she was the girl in the ad. And then she was gone. But my experience has now stopped at least 3 people from doing the same, so win for the Good Team. YL 3 required 20 bucks to drive from Louisville to same area as above. Originally rescheduled date because she didn't realize the drive was over 20ish minutes (this was 3 hours after deposit). Said it was her choice to push back or not, but we were doing an open ended date and less time means less time. Replied she was about to leave. Arrived at my place an hour later. I still don't prefer deposits, but it's like every business and we can do what we like. If you're a provider who requires them it doesn't mean you're a bad person; you just value your time at the risk of alienating customers. If you're a hobbyist who won't pay a deposit you're not bad either; you just value your security/comfort at the risk of missing out on a provider. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are flakes out there. There are ladies who treat this like their business and their livelihood depends on it. It's up to the clients to make the decision if the provider is worthy of a deposit. It's their hard earned money. Again, deposits should only be given after extensive research has been done on a provider and it's been determined she is trustworthy and does not steal from her clients. Imo. If someone is out there taking one for the team, I would think some goofiness is to be expected much of the time.

Posted July 7, 2020 Just recently I had a lady ask me for a deposit. For an incall. I don't know her, she doesn't know me. Obviously she doesn't trust me, why would I trust her? If we knew each other, and I trusted her enough to send a deposit why wouldn't she trust me and not need a deposit? Unless, she needed an advance to buy some necessities. Anyway, I always personally deliver a 100% cash deposit after a hug but before the really good stuff begins. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are two types of providers, ones how make money off scamming guys to into pre paid deposits, gift cards, CC then never call back, ones who are sincere. The third would be old school, where cash at the door and trust meant something. I totally get why Black lists are created. Some guys are shit heads, or have second thoughts of showing up. With the current government and epidemic tensions, Lack of trust widens the gap even more. The stress for a provider is high. The oldest profession ounce again struggles to truly find a simple way. We all truly appreciate the hard work provides do, the willingness to offers amazing service they do. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't get why some guys are like this, the whole point of this lifestyle is to relax and have fun. If you're intent on being a dick, then you've already spoiled any real enjoyment there could have potentially been. If you can't be bothered with treating another human being with some common decency/courtesy, then they have some really creep-ily realistic looking blowup dolls that will do the trick. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 13, 2020 I can tell you this about my experience with deposits so far. When I went on my tour through Wyoming, South Dakota, Baltimore, and Tysons-the ones the put down deposits showed up and were amazing with no issues, the ones that contacted short notice that made no deposits canceled or changed appts followed by NS, or acted like they didn't know the donations, etc. Literally night and day difference. I will be requiring deposits from now on. I can see now why more and more providers are doing it. As has been said, do your homework.
