AdultWork WGs without phone numbers - what's that all about?

[Dave2014]

How difficult can it be to just get a SIM card and give a phone number for potential bookings?

I don't want to be a member of AW (I think it is bollocks) but I am happy to use it to find hot WGs and call them to make a booking. Unfortunately, there are some WGs such as this one . . .

Who I would definitely book (if I could get a 30 min slot) but as she doesn't have a number - forget it!

Am I missing something here, or is this just a fundamental lack of business sense by them in making their point of sale as difficult as possible?

Rant over.

I think it costs £5 a day to have the phone number displayed. Possible reason.

[JohnEv]

Last time I looked, it was £1 a day for telephone number display.

[latecomer]

Yes I believe it's £1 to show tel no and £5 for Available Today.

By being a member of aw, it provides some sort of signal to the wg that you are less likely to be a timewaster. Anyone can just view the site and could potentially be making time wasting calls or texts. Not a 100% guarantee obviously and I can see your point but I would think this is the reason.

Its the prossies choice if she wants to pay to display her number and your choice if you want become an AW member.

Some WGs choose not to display their numbers, obviously thats up to them but i have a simple rule, no number, no business off me as i have zero interest in wasting my time emailing WGs. I have been told it costs £1 a day to display their number, if the reason some dont is to save that quid that is bad business sense, but then some WGs do have bad business sense.

I think that sums it up - there are definitely a lot of timewasters and wankers out there, and AW - shit as it is - at least provides WG's with some degree of protection.  Had a WG recently who took a phone booking "referred from AW" and ended up with an attempted robbing that resulted in her being stabbed and slashed with a knife.  She now only sees regulars and AW members with 5 feedback.  Other WG's also insist on positive feedback no doubt for similar reasons.  I think it's fair enough tbh - all kinds of nutters out there (on both sides of the fence).

Which gives them the potential to earn £500+ in a day, not a bad investment.

Indeed, and my choice to move on to a girl who displays a number.   

[AlexisTaylor]

ive always taken bookings online, i only pay out on hotel and travel if i have the confirmed bookings, some times i get cancellations but not often. if i have spaces on the day i display my number. i prefer to see gents with regular feedback for piece of mind.

[JohnEv]

How many punters would put their punting phone number up publicly, the reasons you don't is probably the same as why the girls are hesitant.  They must get thousands of fake or abusive calls/texts, half of them from the school kids who put up fake profiles for a laugh during school holidays.

[jackdaw]

If you're interested just send her an e-mail and ask her for her telephone number.

The huge difference is its the WG who is advertising for punters, she is selling her service, the punter is buying it so its totally irrelevant for a genuine punters number to be online. So i dont put my punting number online as there is absolutely no reason for it to be online.

How a WG operates is her business just as how i choose to punt, with WGs who have displayed phone numbers is mine. Certainly timewasters do genuine punters no favours.

[galcom666]

My home phone number is bombarded with PPI, accident claims and telemarketers asking if I want double glazing.

I get 4-5 calls per day. This is extremely irritating. Consider a WG, if she publishes her number how many time wasters will she get bombarded with?

[Jimmyredcab]

Some time ago I saw a profile of a girl in Southend who looked my type, I sent her an E-Mail requesting her phone number, she told me that once I made a booking she would give me the number ---------------- needless to say I took things no further, prostitutes are ten a penny, I refuse to abide by THEIR rules.

Every business gets timewasters, what makes prostitutes a special case, I need to hear a voice before I risk £120.

Try this. It takes a month or so to kick in. But, after that it works a treat. I never get unsolicited calls any more. It works for mobile numbers too.

I am registered with that service but still get nuisance calls.     

[Qwerty]

This is going somewhat off-topic, but since I registered with tps I hardly get any sales calls. but still quite a few "[Indian accent] Hi my name is Brian, I'm calling from Microsoft support" "I'm conducting a survey" etc. Not 4-5 a day though, anything like.

[kenw1]

Same here. PPI, Car accident , double glazing and the list goes on.

[Corus Boy]

Does it really matter?

TBH I use it as another elimination test.

No phone number, rthey get an email from me.

My personal evaluation:  If they answer my questions and give me a phone number straightaway, they are more likely to be for real.

[Wilson85]

Some prossies only display their number when they actually want to take bookings.

Those who fancy another punt will have saved the number so they can still call when the number isn't on show.

I started off with a similar belief, but a good number of positive feedbacks from escort bookings appears to work wonders.

1. Emails and enquiries are replied to quickly and comprehensively;
2. SMS messages (ignored by many girls) are answered promptly;
3. Girls know that the chap coming through the door is 'legit' and (in my experience), are always therefore relaxed;
4. Not once in the past month have I been 'rushed' - or experienced any 'clock watching';
5. I could simply be imagining this, but on repeat visits to certain ladies it seems they have made that 'extra special' effort.

My jaw literally hit the floor last night on one such occasion. 

[SelinaKyle]

I considered displaying my number on my AW page, but as others above have already expressed, at least when someone is a member of AW you can check for feedback and such. I only do outcalls, and only when I want to - as opposed to it being a full-time job. So taking a chance on someone who has called to book me, isn't something I can really do.

I reckon if I were doing it full-time and offered incalls, then having a number displayed wouldn't be as risky. At least then if someone is a timewaster and doesn't turn up, I won't have had to leave the house to find that out.

[threechilliman]

I honestly don't know how some WG's make a living doing this. You'd have thought that if they don't display a number, they'd be pretty hot on AW messages. One I want to see has no number displayed so sent her a message on Monday. She hasn't logged on since so the email remains unread.

I might write her a letter.....or perhaps use a carrier pigeon. Anybody got any bright ideas apart from move on?

I've booked someone else now!

tcm

[pukkapunt]

some only display there number on days they are available. theres other is see that i think are not serious dreamers that like the messages for attention. bored wives lol

[Welshguy78]

Most of the girls I've seen will only see people with feedback. Had a chat with a regular and she said it stops time wasters.

Went to see a girl once and her phone wouldn't stop ringing during the appointment which totally put me off. Maybe they get too many phone calls if they display it?

[kefell]

I may be a bit sceptic but the first thing it shouts to me is that they are not looking for any bookings at all, will ignore any emails and only there to "sell" their private photos.

[Brumish]

Exactly my thoughts. Most of these profiles are a scam.
The twats that agree with the tow line of 'stops time wasters' are the same guys that'll believe everything the prossies tell them.

Most prossies sit by the phone all day praying for it to ring. The others actually pay someone to do it.

[sublimetoridiculous]

Not necessarily, but unfortunately there is no way of telling, other than messaging and see if you get a response.

There are also women who mostly only work the RB system, as it suits them to do so.

What I do know is that many of the the best shags I've had from AW do not display phone numbers.

[Bangers and Gash]

Can you imagine having to send an email to your local taxi firm or pizza parlour in order to get their phone number so you can give them your custom. I can't think of any other 'business' that operates in such a fucked up way. Maybe these are the moaning pro$$ies on Safe who are resigned to finding a part-time job at Tescos because they're lucky to see one punter a week. 

[sublimetoridiculous]

You are missing the broader picture: the occasional/part time WGs (who are often the better shags) only want to see one punter per week. Or maybe they do a couple of overnights per month.

They don't operate a conveyor belt easily accessible by phone.

Indeed, as i always say i punt to suit me, the service buyer, NOT the WG. Never ceases to make me chuckle that some punters will play to the WGs tune just to get to fuck a WG, up to them though of course. NO WG is worth me changing how i punt.

[Silver Birch]

I  can see that pro$$ies must get a lot of nuisance calls, and if they are getting enough punters without displaying a phone number that's fine, but they are missing out on a lot of genuine enquiries (me!) because their email communication is mostly shit as well

This group of part-timers accounts for a small proportion of prostitutes who don't display a phone number, I think.
The thing about only booking through AW and/or guys with feedback is bollocks, as has been said.

All anyone has to do if, for example they're entertaining a punter, is to turn the phone to silent for an hour FFS
