Waiting

[lamboman]

Just posted a review where I walked off as I was kept waiting.
I basically call 2 or 3 minutes before time and would expect some acknowledgement even to say I'll be ready in a bit.
Then I call on time if no reply leave it,if there's no reply 3 minutes later I set off for the car.
I'm never more than 2 minutes from the car so by 5 past I'm usually off and away if there's still no reply.
If there is a reply I'm already in a bad mood so I don't go back,I have once gone back whilst walking to the car.
I can't abide lateness it's just rude,I have a theory this is a control thing from SPs although one did tell me it's just bad organisation.
Is that normal or a bit harsh?

[TimeBandit]

Most punters have to plan their punts like a military campaign, so they can be off the radar for a while, and somewhere that they won't be noticed or recognised. The longer you have to hang around outside an SPs place of work, the more the discretion is compromised, so agree with your attitude entirely.
Not to even acknowledge your call or text until they feel like it is just plain bad.

[Bonker]

I agree with everything you say lambo.
It does give the WG control and she can mess you about after that as she has the upper hand.

I appreciate that sometimes it's not her fault, unforseen circumstances or the guy before overstaying but she can always text you.

A couple of times, I've left and had a phone call later and gone back and regretted it because the service matched the initial response.

[berksboy]

All of the above is right , i thought i was being harsh on giving them up to 10 mins but i see i am not. If i can drive there find parking and then find her place and be on time why cant she be ready on time ?

[Captain caveman 69]

On arrival at a punt do a quick recon of the area find a decent space to park make contact by txt on arrival.  No reply i then ring bang on the arranged time. No reply I'm gone

I am exactly the same. I usually come ten mins early and scout the area for lurkers or if the neighbourhood is safe. Then I usually text 5 mins before booking to say I’m here and give them ten mins to reply including 5 mins after the start of the booking to respond. I always leave at the 5 min walk and never turn back. The way I see it, an SP doesn’t give clients an extra 5 mins so they should value our time also. It’s just basic respect at the end of the day and it’s sad because some punters play into their control moves by staying for a punt after being treated like shit (made to wait 20 mins and stick around for b&s) Read it plenty of times sadly

[Jerk Chicken]

OP there is already a thread on this somewhere.

The consensus from that thread was:-

- how long you have travelled
- radio Silence or asking for more time on arrival
- how well reviewed (positive) the WG is
- How desperate are you to fuck this particular WG
- and dare I say it how horny you are on arrival

From what I can remember punters typically waited around 10 mins although some posted much longer times. You will also see a few reviews where punters quote waited 25 minutes before I was in.

For me radio silence = 10 mins max. Responding to my text or even better answering my call I’ll take a view as to how long I am prepared to hang around all depends how the WG comes across.

[Mr Sinister]

I travel by foot if my journey is going to take 45 to an hour I'll let the wg know I'm still on my way with an eta.When I am a few minutes or so away from the location I'll call to get the door number to enable me to walk upto the door and she'll be ready to open it immediately.

My limit to wait is between 5-10 minutes depending on the type of wg, area, time of day and weather. If she has double booked I'll walk straight away.

[StingRay]

A number of years ago I booked and confirmed a meeting with a girl in Bournemouth - a long way from me. Got there, called for address etc. and got no response. Persevered for a while as I had travelled for 3 hours but eventually gave up. Didn't have a plan "B" and came home.

Got a text later that day apologising and offering a freebie at a party the following week in London - apparently no response to original booking since her child was ill - I'm not going to comment on that as would be unfair to do so.

Went to party next week and she tried to charge me until I showed her the "freebie" text - party was good but not great.

Lessons to be learnt (which I mostly did)
- don't travel for hours for a first meeting without a plan "B"
- do a lot more research for a first meeting if not very local

Only ever had something similar once since, but that was reasonably local so no real harm done - still no plan "B" but could have easily found an alternative had I wanted - had a very nice, and cheaper, "liquid lunch" instead.

We live and learn!!!

[lamboman]

There's not much in the way of plan Bs my way,I have detected a slight worsening of this type of behaviour this year.
When I was in Reading this year one girl called me 15 minutes late having blanked me until then saying she would be ready by half past,good for you love I'm already back at my hotel.See if I can remember who it was.

[Sheraton]

I normally wait no longer than 5 mins if the WG has not responded to a text when I'm close to the establishment.  It grates me when I have left and they text back saying 'ready' or giving the door number etc. 

[Stevelondon]

I agree with everything thats been said.
The more professional the provider usually means a more professional service and that includes booking times etc.
I suppose a lot of us have had bad experiences, travelled a long way, no response on arrival etc etc.
I would have to say if I arrived to see someone and she did not even reply to a text or phone call within 15 minutes. I would leave.
That is more than enough time and I think I am being considerate with that amount.

I too have had the text back an hour or so later.
"Sorry mum was ill"
"No electricity"

To name but two

[JonasG]

I usually wait 10 minutes and then do one final call and then if that's unanswered, I go onto AW and try and find another girl.

[alabama1]

I find it annoying to get the "ready" text bang on time. We are effectively being charged to walk to the said destination. It may seem trivial to a wg but when they are charging £2 - £3  an hour....

The points above make sense, I like to arrive in plenty of time so if i've driven an hour and 15 minutes or an hour and a half then i've already invested best part of 2 hours so i'm not turning on my heels and driving another 90 minutes home without giving it a reasonable waiting time otherwise i've wasted about 3 and a half hours for fuck all.

Radio silence is vastly different to i'm running late can you give me 10 minutes.

If i'm going any distance then I like to have a plan B / C / D parlour punt lined up

If only! A minute i meant , not an hour

[Watts.E.Dunn]

Suppose i've been either very lucky or perhaps good at seeing the right SP's?

Normnally phone them or text to get the house or flat number and than will be pressing the bell a couple of mins before the meet starts.

I've got the postcode so very close to the punt address. Normally as siad that works fine had a few ladies asked me to give then a further few miniutes but only once had complete radio silence that was from that Polish bird Ava someone or other, review in my file but thats about all.

[Bush]

Try to get there 10mins before and advise of arrival straight away.......I’ve never been let down other than the very occasional 10min wait.
It’s no defence of the service provider to do the same but I know they get pissed around something rotton by punters so it’s not a ‘one way street’. Manners from both sides is something that comes cheap.

[Bonker]

I've also had the experience where they start the clock from the appointment time, not the time it actually started because they were late.

"Your booking was 3 o'clock". Argh!

[rk_1985]

All makes sense on here, often I’ve found myself lurking to the ‘just getting ready’ text and they take 5-15 mins. Now i found myself messaging early to work out if they’re ready. If no message after 5mins then start looking for plan b.

After 10mins I follow up again and then consider walking. Usually try to get a feel what they’re like with comms before doing the trip. I had one where all was running like clockwork but then waited inside for some time while she finished with another customer. One of the most bizarre ones I’ve had..

[oap69]

Similar experience once. When I phoned on arrival, was told to wait ten minutes as she was in the bath. After ten minutes walked towards the door only to see another punter leaving, so turned around and never returned.  Lesson learnt for me.

[cueball]

I don't even leave the couch until I've had on the day confirmation.

Then, if they're not ready on time and don't keep me informed, I'm off.

[punjabipunter]

Being that the punt doesn't take place, does this warrant a negative review or is neutral more relevant??

[daviemac]

Your review your choice how you rate it but if they piss me about at all they get a negative and that includes short notice cancellations.

[willie loman]

park up and read a book, after 10 minutes drive off, mind you its rare that i see a girl in a flat that i havent seen a few times in a sauna, the advantage of a sauna, the girl is there, plus there is a toilet, i always find taking viagra, triggers an urge to have a bowel movement, and i hate taking a dump in a strangers house.

[Blackpool Rock]

It can depend on the circumstances but most punters will rightly deem it a Negative if they get radio silence.

If you get told the punt is off with a couple of hours notice then at least you have had a reasonable timeframe and hopefully haven't started travelling, if the 1st you know of the punt being off is after you have got ready and driven an hour or so only to be told 5 minutes after the start time then that's also a Negative in my book.

The thing is most of these girls seem to have regular "Emergencies" and turmoil going on in their lives every single day, well at least they do if you actually believe what they tell you 

I did book a punt with a heavily pregnant girl only to turn up at the hotel and get radio silence.
Under normal circumstances i'd give a Negative however she had sent me an AW e-mail about 20 minutes before the start time saying she couldn't make it but i'd driven over an hour to get there and didn't see the e-mail until after I got home (don't have the AW app on my phone)

I actually started a thread on here asking for opinions whether I should give her a negative review and someone told her about it, she then sent me another AW e-mail complaining about it and having a go at me but then explained she had a hospital appointment which over ran as she had had problems throughout the pregnancy and they needed to do extra tests.

In that instance I gave her the benefit of doubt and didn't review however all the details were already contained on the thread, I think that was fair enough if she was telling the truth however shame on her if she was lying and using her unborn baby to do so

[rathbone]

The thing is most of these girls seem to have regular "Emergencies" and turmoil going on in their lives every single day, well at least they do if you actually believe what they tell you 

Agreed, although the emergencies can be split into two categories.  The SP's who live chaotic lives and always have shit going on with boyfriends/ landlords/ drugs so the emergencies are self-inflicted, and the ones who tell egregious lies.  The best/ worst example of that was an SP who said her sister was in hospital in intensive care, later discovered that was pure fabrication when she contradicted herself. 

Compared to that I'm happy to give the benefit of the doubt to someone who's running late because their car had a puncture (that happened to me on the way to a punt).

[OakTree]

Every meet is different. I don't have hard set in stone rules. I do agree with cueball though. I confirm before I leave home. No confirmation back, no journey. If I get there and it's radio silence, I'll probably wait fifteen minutes. I'll keep trying to contact her in that time. After that it's probably not happening and I'll head off home.

On the other hand if she's kept me informed I can be flexible. Shit happens and things sometimes don't go to plan. I'm not going to just fuck off after five minutes due to a principal.

[Bhamguy]

The times you arrive  and keep you waiting  outside for 15 mins had a few. 1 was when rang up said be 15 mins turned out to be an hour then got call saying she going home .just thought I'd ask see what you lot wud do cheers

[Longshot]

Depends how desperate i am at the time but each minute that passes i loose faith in the wg.  Anything longer than 15 minutes and its a fair bet the punt will be shit.

I can understand girls run late at times but if she doesnt space her bookings properly it means shes working conveyor belt and is less likely to be clean and freshened up from the last punter.

[Captainhowdy666]

Yep, 15 minutes then call another girl to see if they are available ASAP.
WG’s soon complain of poised about but think nothing of pissing punters about.

[Foxtail17]

I just won’t wait anymore. If a girl can’t manage her bookings then I can’t be bothered with her. It is totally her responsibilty to ensure a punter finishes on time.

[southcoastpunter]

also have a look at a bit of a thread on this,  a month or so ago

I've merged this with the recent thread on the same subject as it is less than a month old.   wud ???

[Supersix4]

For me good comms and timekeeping are very important. I can't be waiting for 20/30 mins for a punt that may, or mayn't happen.

My rules are after 5 mins of radio silence i walk. No confirmation on the day i don't leave home.
I don't get knocked back for another day after i've booked either. If i've made an appointment for Wednesday at 15:00 that will be the only time i'm free.

Poor timekeeping and poor professionalism annoy me.

[Bikerman]

I have to organise few days before then adk for postcode for travel then look at area for parking..i usually chain bike to something..like lampost outside sofia in middleton...i fone one wg for massage and when i got there about 5 mins early..quick text or call  if no reply aftet 15..im on my way

[petermisc]

I think you have to be realistic.  If you want to see a girl who you know is operating a conveyor belt service, then you have to expect to be kept waiting.  Generally, this is not the kind of SP I see.  However, there was one particular Asian house I used to visit where you could be kept waiting for 20 minutes or more, but the quality of service was worth it, particularly as there weren't too many alternatives in that area.

[Corus Boy]

Depends on the girl;

If I've seen her before so it must have been good, I'll wait but at thesecond delay I'll tell her that I'm leaving in five minutes.

A new girl, I'm gone after five minutes.

[Fkk]

I arrived 5 minutes early and got ripped a new on the door step. I said do you want me to go, answer no come in. The power of money. If it was a yes go and come back in 5. Yeah FRO.

Why not just arrive on time? why go early. 

[Jimmyredcab]

Why not just arrive on time? why go early. 

I don’t regard being early by 5 minutes as anything out of the ordinary. ????

Any half decent prostitute would leave a 30 minute gap between bookings to allow for punters running late.

[oddson1970]

Why not just arrive on time? why go early. 

maybe to try and squeeze an extra 5 mins into the booking?

[daviemac]

It's not a case of how long they leave between booking, it's them getting the timing right so they are ready at the correct time and you arriving before that scheduled time.

I just don't understand a punter complaining when it's the punter at fault.

Well in my experience it takes them 5 minutes to take the money and stash it away in another room, that means a 30 minute booking gets reduced to 25 minutes.

Not a thing that happens with me, a reg takes the money at the end, new one's I've seen haven't left the room they just put it on the table at the side. 5 minutes is an awfully long time for them to be out of the room, if they did that with me it would be reflected in the review.

If I book a taxi to be at my house at a given time I don't expect him to be knocking on the door expecting me to come out 5 minutes early.

[Coriniumstud]

I always send a text 2 minutes before time too say I have arrived then I’ll give it 5 minutes after agreed start time, if I hear nothing I’ll leave

[myothernameis]

I usually text the escort, 5 - 10 min's before our booking, and tell her, Im ready when she is ready.  Usually a few min's later I get text, and if I dont know the flat no, this is included in the text, and told to come up

By the time I get to her door, I still have around 3 mins's to the booking time, so by the time I pay my the fee, and get undressed, its now tick tock time, 60 min's to go

[Adoniron]

I have had bad experiences in the past of being kept waiting or having SPs trying to reschedule at the last minute so now if I contact the girl upon arrival and she needs 10 more minutes I'll wait 10 minutes. If she wants longer than that I'll say no thanks I'm off. Equally If I can't make contact with her within 5 minutes after the agreed start time I'll leave.

Is that normal or a bit harsh?

not everybody has a car so we are willing to hang around a little bit as it usually takes a min of 30min to get there in the first place ,but on the other had  that always gives me plenty of excuses for been late
must WG tend to have a clock in their room especially if they are the finishing early type so just make sure you take a good look at it and preferably mention it to her the what to it should last to
