Adultwork’s SMS service

[Corus Boy]

A first encounter with this AW Service offering.

As my phone is not registered with AW it seems to block me from finding any information.

I'm guessing that it costs me what my Service Provider charges for a text?

Plus there is an additional levy, of Credits, by AW for using the service?

Does the girl you're texting get a cut?

Anyone have fuller information?

I am really interested because today I've tried to booking a girl and she has replied;

"...All serious enquiries please use Adultwork’s SMS service so it reaches me instantly..."

You need to have your phone number registered with AW to get your replies. You also need to have 1.5 credits. AW keep the 1 credit for texting your message to the SP's phone, the SP gets the 0.5 credit when she responds to your text.

It's a money maker then, someone should tell her that an ordinary text or Whatsapp will reach her just as quick.

I'm sure a seasoned punter like you CB didn't fall for that one?

The conversation as it was ended there.

I know that the girls probably get a lot of time wasters, but my Feedback on AW is all good and over many years, if that doesn't indicate that it is a genuine enquiry, lobbing 50p in her direction for an SMS is proving nothing. IMO.

A follow up question to Wendy.

Do girls get charged Credits if they reply?

[Working Wendy]

SP's only make the 0.5 credit when they reply to each text. It doesn't cost us money to text back, other than the standard cost of a text by our mobile phone provider

So, the 0.5 apart, what is the benefit over a ( free ) WhatsApp message to someone with loads of positive f b ? Never heard of this service before this thread ! Oh, and free A W e-mail service .

[Working Wendy]

0.5 aside, not much other than to protect the SP's privacy. The number shown on your reply text is a fictional one like they do on vivastreet

Thanks again Wendy.

Sounds like a mini scam to me.

You're welcome, happy to help, otherwise I'd have charged you 0.5 credits per post lol

Who was it out of interest?  Does the profile mention it?

Profile doesn't mention it, a surprise out of the blue.

Sorry I can't place the link as it will tie my AW Profile to my UKP Profile.
