Texts from WG out of the blue

[samsungsid]

I recently got 2 missed calls from a number that i didn't recognise, googled the number and it came up Claire of Cambridge a WG. Then 2 days later i got a text message from Katesexyhot who is on AW working in Harlow. I've never used any of the numbers that contacted me or the girls to which the numbers are linked. Has this happened to anyone else, also do you think the girls pass numbers around as a way of picking up trade? I have a punting phone so it's not a major problem but could have been.....

I've never understood why this is a problem. I get the odd text (maybe one or two a week) from WG friends and so what if I do? It's my phone. No one else reads my texts. No one asks me "who's that texting you?" Why would they? If I get a text, my wife just assumes it's work or a friend...she doesn't think "I wonder if it's a working girl?" Are some of you completely paranoid or do you have wives who respect you so little that they see fit to access your personal communications or question you about them?

I personally wouldn't like to do this. For one thing, a lot of people use smart phones these days (not all punters have a £10 phone they use just for 'punting') and if your sat next to somebody with one and you care to look, the actual body of the text flashes up on the screen. If the guy is sat with someone who might care to look, like his wife, it wouldn't go down well.

Plus some phones are linked to Pads and stuff and the texts flash up there. I don't know what discretionary 'measures' a client has in place so I just wouldn't go there.

Its way out of order unless they have prior permission to call or text, they have no idea of anyones personal situation

Spot on. For me its the principle rather than their being a chance of being caught out as that wont happen as my punting phone is off most of the time.

[Paul31]

My regular May txt the odd time but that's only because I have told her I can. If any other wg done that they certainly wouldn't get my buisness

[potato]

I think the OP is asking more about how girls he has never met or called have got his number rather than the etiquette of girls contacting punters out of the blue?  Wasn't there an issue with Adultway or whatever it was called randomly texting punters?  Maybe a girl that you have seen has retired and sold her punter contact list on to her other girls?  Could it be pimp doing it?

Yes on principle but also out of pragmatism. Not all guys use a separate phone just for 'punting', especially if they are only intermittent users.

Quite, but it could be that a guys wife finds his punting phone & switches it on. There's much more chance of explaning it if it's clean of call history & texts than if it's got random texts from Wgs.
Dangerous practice, discretion at all times should be the norm.

I have no other half to worry about but I still have a separate punting phone, I always say to girls I've got on well with it's ok to text and it's worked in my favour several times with better offers than normal rates.

Absolutely right.

I'm guessing folks who are members of, and post to, UKPunting are more interested in 'punting culture' than the general population of men who pay for sex and I'm guessing are perhaps more likely to use a second phone.

Most guys I meet I can see call me on their 'smart phones' from my front yard to say they are here, then spend some time during the booking fiddling with said smart phone, answering a quick call from the office, replying to texts, "....going to turn it off now" and so on...

It may seem foolish for reasons this thread illustrates, but there you go...

Not acceptable IMO. Hasn't happened to me and I wouldn't be happy if it did. Both the prossies you mention are active in East Anglia. Claire has being about for years, saw her a long while ago and from memory it surprises me that she's sending out texts to random strangers. Things change over time though  . Elwood makes a good point about Adultway.

Paranoia and respect don't come into it, it is being careful. You only need your OH to see one text and you've got a lot of explaining to do. My wife uses my phone and I use hers and I don't have my phone on me all the time, depending on what type of phone you have a certain amount of information is displayed when  text comes through. I would rather that wasn't on display.
Why would an OH ask 'who's that texting you ?' - out of interest ?? because you're expecting an innocent  text ??  My wife asks sometimes and it's not being disrespectful or giving the 3rd degree.

Are you stupid?

I'm guessing, at the very least, you have never even had a girlfriend.

Say if I'm sat next to a gf and a message pops up on the screen and she reads the first few lines (as that's what a smartphone can do, you probably don't know that either) "Hey sexy, fancy a…..". Perhaps I have changed my settings so as to not show the start of a message, but it shows I've received a message from a number that isn't in my contact list. "Who is that?" she'll ask. "I don't know" I'll say. "Open it then"….

Women, in the main, are fucking suspicious. As I say, I suspect you don't know that

I agree, this seems to be the OP's question.

I have never had it happen to me. At the end of the day these prossies are in competition with each other, why pass on details that might make you out of pocket?

That said, it probably does happen. As punters we need to understand that prossies are not be trusted and we should not be giving them our real world numbers.

[samsungsid]

Yes Daffodil I was curious if this has happened to anyone else. I have had a few text messages from girls I've seen in the past saying they are in town again and a friend of mine gets regular updates from a Chinese massage shop telling him that new girls have started. As I said I have a punting phone so I am pretty safe and cover my tracks. Do you think a retiring WG's SIM card could be of some value to another WG maybe as a way of contacting punters?

I do, and we have seen AW profiles exchange hands/get put up for sale.

I also have a punting phone so use it to my benefit ("Ah, yes I'd be interested, but how about £x for y minutes" as I'm presuming they're a little desperate), but in principle it's piss-poor behaviour on their part.

I quite like it.  I get that it's good etiquette of them to ask for permission first but frankly you married and with-girlfriend guys: if you're going to cheat on your partners then it's your fucking problem. People send texts these days. Deal with it.

Yes, get a punting phone.

Still remains that most prossies harp on about discretion, sending unwarranted texts is not very discrete is it and discretion works both ways.

A PM apology required there, I think.....

Only a single man would have the luxury to say that.

Married men have to live with the knowledge that their wives will turn into raging harpies and take the house, car, pension, bank account and children if they ever found out about the prostitutes their husbands see.

Is your punting phone an Android phone? If it is then block them.

Prostitutes who make unwarranted and untimely phone calls or text messages have no sense of discretion and should be shunned.

[Bristol Helena]

Not all escorts who 'harp' on about discretion behave indiscreetly. I certainly wouldn't; I don't even really like to call back or text missed calls unless it's an only-just-missed.

Actually, come to think of it, I struggle to remember to text/ call actual boyfriends, and it's never so slow at work that I need the money.

If all that mean that much to them why didn't they just stay at home and have a wank instead of seeing WGs?  Fair enough, I know a lot of you fellow punters are in that position, but don't carp on like you deserve sympathy or everyone in the world to bend over backwards to help you out.  I'm not judging anybody but if I was a married punter and I got found out I would take responsibility for my actions and not try and blame someone else or try to demonise all WGs who ever sent a text to a potential client. 

Apologies if anyone is in a forced marriage.

I now see why you are alone

You say that like it's a bad thing.  I can host out calls for one thing. 

You're right though, I'm really jealous of all the married guys on here.  You guys have it so good.  Marriage sounds so great.

So do you also like it when you get marketing texts from all manor of companies or cold calls trying to sell you stuff as well

Why don't you stay at home and have a wank instead of seeing a WG ? Probably the same reason. Or perhaps you believe only single blokes should see prostitutes ?

Clearly you are being judgemental. I haven't seen too many married punters on here looking for sympathy or expecting people to 'bendover backwards' for them. Try being married, or at least having a real girlfriend before pontificating on what you'd do.

Yeah, I forgot.  She was a pretty forgettable one, I got her confused with the others.

Too far 

[JV547845]

Only if I've had a good experience with them before and they are particularly keen to do business again or are offering something new that they're excited about and guarantee customer satisfaction if I take them up on their offer while it lasts and they will go the extra mile for me.
