Payment before meets

[johnsheppard99]

Im going to ask a stupid and rhetorical question here, but surely sending money to a provider via bank transfer, before you even meet, is a bad idea right?!
When I was younger and more naive I got caught out before, either with models or I think there was one SP, all asking for money up front for a booking, then does a runner or doesnt turn up.

I contacted a girl I knew a few years back whos not on any escort sites to see if she was still available to meet.
When we met before, it was not as a SP and client and no money was involved. She still wasnt that reliable at the time. When I asked to meet up with her again, thats when she said she charges to meet guys now.
So anyway, she got back to me today to say yes, and she charges £150 for up to 5hrs with her, BUT only if I send money upfront, via bank transfer to her on booking..I said happy to meet, but I won't/Can't send money upfront via bank transfer, but I can give her the cash in hand when I arrived. Came back again no, money upfront, but theres now two of them, and she sent a photo of her with the other girl shes apparently working with whos pretty good looking, so offering a threesome for up to 5hrs for £150..but again ONLY if I send the money via bank transfer.
Bottom line, I refused still and said its cash on arrival or nothing, which was turned down.

So many alarm bells keep going off in my head, though would have been an absolute bargain to meet two girls, for 5hrs, for only £150, but then when things seem too good to be true..

[Waterhouse]

As a test, try offering £200 or more (use the pretext of it being for two if them) but again stipulate cash only. If they still say no then most likely a scam. If yes, then the extra cash has motivated her and you're still getting a good deal for two girls for few hours at a bargain price.

If it sounds to good to be true, then it most probably is.

Sending it all? A dreadful (and ridiculous) idea. Paying a deposit? Well, perhaps.

I paid a deposit once. It was a girl touring from far afield and I had tried to see her before only to find her fully booked. This time she had spaces available but insisted on £20 in advance to secure the place. I was travelling myself, wanted was she was offering and thought it was worth a gamble. The punt took place, so I wasn't scammed. But it was a dreadful meeting and I wish I hadn't bothered. She was a size 18, not the 12/14 advertised. Had agreed to photos/filing but declined on the day (some excuse, I can't remember) and didn't do half or more of the things she advertised. Ever since I have treated a demand for a deposit as a sign that the WG isn't going to be worth it.

[James999]

If anyone should pay a deposit it should be the Pro$$ie to the client, after all he's likely the one travelling and pro$$ies are notoriously unreliable, if a client doesn't turn up she's not lost any money or any expense, however if a client drives to her location and she flakes he's lost the journey time both ways as well as travel costs.

So if a Pro$$ie asks you for a deposit, say fine she can deduct it from the deposit she pays you

Funny this question has been asked as I came across this today, her picture caught my eye

'I also require a £50 deposit to confirm your booking. This is to ensure you are not a time waster and my safety'   

You'd be crazy to part of £50 and also very easy to get caught and identified 

[anothername]

Send the cash to me. You'll still have the satisfaction of throwing your money away. In return I'll reinvest it in a professional so you'll be guaranteed it won't be wasted.

Still insisting on money up front before meeting, via bank transfer..

Not on any of the escort websites or anything. I met the girl a couple of years back through a facebook group, then she told me after she does sex for money. So nothing to link too im afraid.

Exactly my thoughts..they want the whole lot up front..
I can't fathom why she/they would want me to do a bank transfer rather than give them cold hard cash into their hands!?

There's no risk in terms of "getting caught" or "being identified". Cash over the counter of a bank. As I said, I wouldn't do it again. It was pre-UKP days!

You have your answer.  Probably time to move on to something/someone who you know will be reliable and let this one go... at least that's what I would do - never pay upfront, deposit or otherwise.

Your shitting me right  keep telling yourself that often enough and you may start believing it.
OK so how long since you last met this girl and what do you know about the intervening time in terms of what she's been doing with her life?
This screams deposit scam and as she's previously met her there is no reason for her to require a deposit in case you don't show or for her "safety" etc.
She appears to be desperate for the cash, my guess is she's fallen in with the wrong crowd and now has a habit to fund so is getting back in contact with people she previously knew 

[shagmore]

Valid point, but you are not really going to pay up front unless you know them really well. I only did it with my regulars who I knew very well and they knew me.

I wouldn't pay someone I hadn't met before hand

[jordan452]

Escorts are highly unreliable I book in advance frequently including regulars I would say 40% of the time they cancel and give some excuse, then I go to a plan B. If I paid deposit each time my money would be tied to them. I would have to reschedule find time when I’m next available and suffer a bad case of blue balls.

Why on earth would a WG require pre-payment before the meeting from one of her regulars? Why would a regular of a WG make a pre-payment?

Easy. She intends never to see you let alone fuck you.

You can't fathom why someone you have never met and you don't know where they live or much about them at all would rather you sent them £150 that you can not recover?

It is indeed a mystery....

[James999]

Because she realises he's a mug and she can take his money without meeting him 

[andyw1969]

Who in there right mind would send a prossie money before a meet? That's got to be rule number 1 surely?

I have a regular who I seen about twice a month for last few years and i wouldn't trust her - even though I "think" she would be honest with me.

Never, ever trust a prossie.
 

[johnsheppard99]

2-3 years? Think the last time I saw her was the day the brexit referendum results were announced!

You can't fathom why someone you have never met and you don't know where they live or much about them at all would rather you sent them £150 that you can not recover?

Did you even read the first post? I have met her, about 2-3 years ago, and I still have no intention of sending them money..

Two golden rules for paying a deposit

1. Never pay a deposit
2. If in doubt, see rule 1

[latecomer]

Really?  But I'm sure she's honest.  Send her the full amount and I'm she'll call straight back to confirm the appointment.  Yeah, it'll be all right.  I mean, what could go wrong?  You'll have the time of your life with her and .....  er ????

[funfungoodguy]

Prepayment - deposits - anything up front is a very silly idea IMO. I see in the pictures she's standing next to the dog bowls.. !!....   hmm.

Agree simple rules;
(1) never pay a deposit
(2) if in doubt repeat rule 1......

100% agree with that, they are just relying on some blokes being a bit naive, money for nothing if they get anyone daft enough to pay upfront.

I had this reply recently which is an attempt at money up front, which have to say it's quite creative attempt but obviously not worth replying to such things.

"Hi xxx

The deal is for up to 30hrs of meets a month for 3 months.


BUT you bring a small gift like choc, perfume, lingerie to each meet.

first u need to spend 600 on me for things like txting, pix, vids or request pics or vids etc.
then we start 3 months of naughty meets.


I am happy to do foreplay, kissing, owo, cim, receive oral, squirting,
dress up for u, roleplay, anal, sex, bareback, cum inside my pussy or ass.

also if u are up for doing couple cam shows then u can keep the first 600 we make . so u get your 600 back.
u can also take naughty pics or vids of me if u are in to that.

i am not an escort looking to charge guys for sex or to meet lots of different random guys.

i am a 1 guy girl looking for just 1 guy to see.
more like lovers, bf-gf, fuck buddies arrangement.
not an escort being paid by a client.

once u have spent 600 on me then i know u are commited and i can trust u and we can move foward.
i will never charge u again for the next 3 months.
but i will require a little gift to the first meet of each month like underwear or chocs mmm.

i appreciate this might be too messy and akward for u.
so if u are looking for a quick easy escort then i am not for u!"

Always remember ... a fool and his money are soon parted ... if it sounds too good to be true it generally is
Stick to the old proverb  - a bird in the bush is worth two in the hand
I will never send money before I meet ... if they want my cash they'll wait until the meeting takes place and receive it then

Actually that sounds right when used in a punting context as in "A Bird's bush is worth 2 wanks"

How did James get to be an expert on proverbs? Do you think he's read the rest of the Old Testament as well?

Personally I prefer a bird without a bush: too many pricks and prickles otherwise

I know that's a view shared by many here, but I've paid deposits in the past, and would do so again in the right circumstances. Had I not done so, I would have missed out on my best punt of all time. It's all about weighing up the risk against the potential rewards.
