No Telephone Number

[starman]

I have been frustrated for a while now that several active service providers I would love to see never display their phone number. I understand that this may be because there are some twats and time wasters out there who mess them around, but this has to be only a minority. They must be losing so many genuine punters that surely displaying their number would be worth the occasional hassle.
And before anyone tells me to use the online booking or email, I have done so, got my computer hacked and a virus, which was a lot more damaging than a hoax phone booking. Most phone bookings I have made require at least 2 phonecalls or texts to confirm, and the people I have seen confirm that the genuine bookings far outweigh the hoaxes.
So, come on, all the others. Get your number displayed. I could be your next client!

To me its very simple.

I have very little use of, some parts of the A/W system (to open to abuse/misuse)

There are some very good W/G listed (review and feed back wise - mostly here) that I've not seen.

For me, I require certain things when booking and paying for services. No phone number listed, no booking from me and I will look else where.

Its up to the W/G (managed or not) how they wish to conduct bookings and chose who they see.

Just like its up to punters, where to spend (punting cash) and who what they wish to punt.

Thus:

Some punters may miss out (on a good W/G)

And some W/G lose out (money wise)

What gets me is when you read their profile and they ask you not to hide your number .  When there is no number even displayed 

On Adultway they all display their mobile numbers .

I don't waste my time emailing WGs so no number, no business off me. From reading posts on here by punters I find credible some popular WGs in London who don't display their numbers are still getting business and my logic tells me if they weren't getting enough punters they would start displaying their numbers.

On Adultway they all display their mobile numbers .

Having done a little research I have found a few girls who advertise on AdultZone, VivaStreet, UKSexContacts, and other sites as well as Adultwork.  Very often their phone number is on one of these other sites, (however their prices are often quoted as higher, so don't say where you saw their profile. Lol)

So I guess sometimes they must take some bookings by phone, even though they say they don't on Adultwork. Oh well, no phone number, their loss!

Very good point

I don't think it is just London. There are many nationwide that don't display a number.

I think the majority are part-timers who do not offer same day bookings.  Some of the more popular girls are often booked weeks and sometimes longer in advance.  Not much point them making themselves available for phone calls in such circumstances.

I would imagine that if Starman was with a w/g who kept on answering her `phone he would be complaining on here about her.
Similarly, if a girl is busy, can`t keep answering her phone, and puts it on voicemail many punters would be annoyed. She simply can`t satisfy everyone.

Personally I`d rather use email any day; it`s free, and I have a record for posterity of what I have said in case of any argument later.

They have to pay per day to display their number, hence, at times its not shown

But

punters have to pay for their time, hence a cost (as in any business) like: Rent, Wet wipes, Lube, even condoms etc!

I noticed Khloe does it, for most of the time she doesn't display her phone number. But a few days ago when she returned from her holiday it was on her AW profile so finally i got it. She is the last WG i would like to see - before i will quit.

But like the others said: no phone number - no business with me. I have better things to do than writing and sending e-mails to WGs. And waiting for their reply...

[The_Don]

before i will quit.

If that the case, I hope will you still visit UKP

I have no idea how much it costs for them to display their number,  but I doubt it's anymore than £5.  I would of thought a potential booking of say £120 for an hours booking , would be worth the cost of displaying their number

I am thinking about it, maybe it's time to quit, i don't know. It's nothing to do with money or STDs. After 2 years in this game - sex with prossies doesn't satisfy me. I need more than sex - i need a GF and proper relationship. If i would quit i would stay on UKP - i would read about punter's adventures  and would recall my "good old days"

Very good point 

OR - they have a private gallery and make all their money from that.

I've scanned through AW quite a lot, and I can count those that fit what I am looking for, which includes a phone number, on the fingers of one hand. Out of around 18,000 escort profiles that's a very low percentage. There's also currently nearly 700 that have been "asked to verify" which means approaching 5% highly probably timewasters/scammers.

Which is fair enough and of course up to the WG. It used to cost £1 a day to display their number.

[Punting Valley]

Not an issue for me as I prefer to email them whether or not they have their numbers posted.

I agree that it does help for a WG to have a phone number displayed on their AW account...... That way on the day of the booking, you can call them to let them know you are coming and also ask any questions to clarify certain things!!!!!!!!

A few months ago, I was interested in seeing a lady in Stoke for a meet. On the day before, I e-mailed her to ask if she available the next day for a certain time........ She replied back the next day and gave an off-the-wall answer...... stating that she was "available from today" and would be happy to cater for all my needs!!!!!!!!!! On that very day she marked her profile as "available today" but provided no phone number!!!!!! On that occasion, it would have been so much easier to have phoned her to clarify things!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On my last punt, the lady that I had intended to meet, but subsequently fucked me about........ did not display a phone number on her profile.... and that is despite making a booking on AW!!!!!!!!

You see....... It really does help for the lady to have a phone number displayed on their AW profile!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
