Punting phone is essential - yet another warning!

[Jerk Chicken]

I know this topic has been discussed before but I believe this is a valuable update/discussion point.

Still amazes me how many of you guys use your personal phone when booking a fuck!

Had a farewell pre Covid-19 lockdown fuck few weeks back (although I didn't realise it was just that at the time)

Anyways post punt chit-chat with SP revealed she regularly looks at guys WhatsApp pics especially before they arrive revealing them hugging their "loving gf/wife", kids, other social situations even their place of work!

What da fuck is wrong you guys! Get a blooding punting phone. There are some crackpot SPs out there and we have no clue where your personal pics might end up if you have a bust up with a particular SP

If you cba to get a punting phone maybe consider restricting your DP.

[GingerNuts]

I don't know why you think we need another thread. This could have been added to an existing one.

Anyway, if for some reason you're not using a punting phone then don't add the WG's number to your contact list and set WhatsApp to only show your last seen, profile photo, about and status to "my contacts".

[RandomGuy99]

This would be why I don't use social media or Whatsapp.

You gotta remember that alot of punters dont have a loving wife or gf or any skeletons in the cupboard to be afraid of , and just dont have reason to be so obsesively paranoid as others on here.  But yeh if youve got a loving wife , kids etc to fuck up then it makes sense to be ultra paranoid.

That would be me, thankfully I never married or am in any kind of relationship, makes things easier I suppose.

Agree with you on that point but based on some of the reviews on here even singletons skeleton free need to tread carefully regarding some SPs/Sergei when things go wrong. Some prop nasty cunts out there!

Absolutely you should have a punting phone regardless 

[Hobbit]

I don't do social media but would advise a punting phone if you're married or an extremely anxious individual. I myself am single and hope to stay that way, amen.

Much cheaper and easier and hassle free.. I am so so glad I'm back to that life...eye of the 🐅🐅👊👊👊👊👊👊👊

[MLawro93]

I don't do social media, and I only punt when single. Got nothing to hide or feel ashamed about, but even I have a punting phone these days. It's annoying when girls spam your phone with messages stating they are available, etc. For that alone now, I have a separate phone.

I'm single and used to use my personal phone for punting which I stopped doing after posting a review on here and the escort in question threatened to out me to work and to social services (I'm registered disabled) about my activities. Since then I use a punting phone.

Be careful out there folks, there's some right nutjobs around.

Yeh well if your phone is linked to your work and your social services info then obviously thats something to take into account in the whole phone risk assessment thing.

[willie loman]

Yes there are some nutjobs out there, although single etc, still wouldn't want everyone who knows me, learning about my curious hobby, will be getting a punting phone .

Realisation dawns after eight plus years.

[intpro]

No need for a punting phone specifically but definitely get a second number.

Use an app to purchase a second phone number...textme etc. Around £20 yearly.

If you want WhatsApp as well, sign up for tutuapp vip for around £15 yearly and download WhatsApp++ duplicate. Sometimes the apps get revoked and you have to wait days/weeks for it to come back but worth it for me.

[mr.bluesky]

This would be why I don't use social media or Whatsapp.

+1. Something I've never felt the need to do. Don't need it. Don't want it.

Sorry bro can't see how this advice will work for most. If punters are like me unless I save a WG's number I have zero chance of remembering who I have called, who is texting me back following a missed call from me et al.

[fbarge]

quiteeasy - don't put your name on WhatsApp - put a nickname like rocky or houdi or initials BJ - and don't put personal pics on whatsapp

agreed you need to save numbers - so- don't put your real name on WhatsApp - put a nickname or a neutral name like rocky or houdi or initials BJ - and don't put personal pics on whatsapp

Save the numbers in a document instead of as a contact.

I'm sure you can identify the numbers from the few WGs you're contacting at a particular time.

[GingerNuts]

My advice is for those still using a non-punting phone. Wives, girlfriends etc. are going to be suspicious if you suddenly change your name and picture on WhatsApp.

[Jerk Chicken]

I would love that to be the case mate... I could not read of family members numbers by heart let alone remember a WG number that I may have called in the morning and she pops me a reply 4-5 hours later and no way am I creating a document with a list of hookers I may want to fuck one day!

You save the numbers of WGs as contacts on your phone and you've already created a list of WGs you might want to fuck one day.

Think you're missing the point bro or perhaps my reply wasn't clear.

I have a punting phone with WhatsApp. The numbers saved there are SPs I have fucked not ones I may want to fuck in future. If I call a new one or quite a few newbies on a given day I only save their numbers once they respond indicating they are available. If they don't number not saved. The SPs I contact rarely call back they prefer SMS or WhatsApp which is absolutely fine by me.

Cannot see the need to create a separate document be it on my phone or elsewhere of SPs

You and fbarge have been making the clear case for having a punting phone by the very nature of the elaborate work-arounds you're suggesting to maintain anonymity on a non-punting phone where your "real life" contacts will be expecting a certain amount of transparency due to the way that the OSes and Apps integrate connections, activities and locations.
At any point when you update your smartphone OS or the apps installed, your settings may be reset, temporarily integrating and exposing everything saved, if you don't notice this then your "new" life may possibly start leaking out into your contacts suggestion lists.  Even if you put the numbers in a document and delete call lists and messages, if the SP saves your number then it will be integrated into the Cloud via whatever laxity she maintains about that phone.  Therefore be very wary of SPs known to be active on social media.

You will never persuade everyone to have a punting phone. For those people we can hope they at least take what precautionary measures are available.

A question about dual SIM phones please.
I have a Samsung phone that has dual SIM card slots. Can you effectively switch off one of the cards altogether, so no calls/texts appear whilst not in use? It looks as if it can be done but not sure enough to try. In my case it may be the easiest place to hide a punting SIM card, rather than a second phone.

You can disable the SIM card which is effectively the same as removing it from your phone.

Ah i see , so did the escort have info about your work and social services or was she just making empty threats or you dont know precisely what info she had.

I remember before I ever had a mobile phone in the mid to late 90s, and was living at home with my family. I rang and left an answerphone message for one escort and told her if she couldn't reply that evening not to call me back the next day as it was a personal number. She done exactly that and seemed have an attitude when I didn't want to speak to her the next day. That was just one example but others had done similar things back then. I was taking a big risk and they didn't care at all about the fact I might get caught.
