Rate increases are nonsensical based on reputation and reviews
Not comparable sp's in area or market rate

Less people are likely to stump up £150 for a toftt than they are a well reviewd generally positive reviewed sp

I've usually found rate increases reflect reputation and demand rather than anything else cost of living, comparable sp's etc

If you have an audience, milk it i guess  :unknown:

I agree. There was one girl who was reviewed, but reviews were sort of neutral, I would take the risk for £100, but not £130 and a two hour round trip.

New norm? £150 PH has been the regular rate for indie in London for the last 15 years at least. Punting is about the only things where prices hasn't really gone up that much in the South East. If punting cost goes up at thew same rate as a pint of lager in London, a typical AW punt would have cost £300 an hour at least.

There is no such thing as a regular rate, WGs charge vastly different rates in London in reality, from a £25 or so Soho Walk-Up quickie to ridiculous to me rates. SOME WGs have been charging £150 an hour for the last decade at least as have some agencies, £150 an hour is the entry price for many London agencies.

But so called Indie wise in the last 10-15 years there have been some good WGs charging from £60-100 an hour, the point is on average in my area that's gone up to £80-120 or more an hour and locating good WGs under £100 an hour is harder than it used to be. The best time for cheaper rates with good service offered was between 5-10 years ago in my experience.

I have to agree with you and I'm not in London. I don't really do 30 minute bookings any more, but very little for less than £70 outside a parlour. Still some bargains to be had, but it's a shame i wasn't punting much 5 years ago.

none of them are near £150, but there are big differences between towns

Most of the Polish girls in Preston are controlled by Lena's pimping group and she keeps the prices high. She's pretty ruthless with how she treats the girls so there's not a lot of argument. Of course the English girls price up from that. Romanians in Preston rarely stay long.......

So the Polish girls are being controlled and coerced...  And "Lena" hasn't been taken down by the cops?  No-one reported her?

This may sound stupid but is there a way to get some kind of ranking on this website? I've never found any but would be very interested!

Not on here, but if you look at the Punting Wiki you can sort WGs by positive reviews.  Not sure how up to date it all is though.

I hope £150/hr  is not going to become the Norm.

But I have noticed prices creeping up in London and it is now difficult for me to get the sort of 1 to 1 I want at less than £120 or 140 with an English speaking WG.

I stopped punting on AW last year and have only seen one girl from there that cost me £100 for half an hour. I wanted to last longer and use my whole time but she didn't edge me and just kept going even though I tried to slow down. 150 ph is too much for me. I have paid it for one offs just to tick my bucket list, but never repeat visit. I have a £400 a month budget about £5k a year and like to nut once a week.

To get frequent nuts I either find half an hour girls for £60 or find a decent girl in a parlour. You can get a 45-50 per hour massage with a 20-30 hj. I paid this lady £65 for a good massage and handjob for an hour. At £150 I can only nut twice a month which is not enough for a young man.

I've noticed a lot of girls charging £150 plus per hour and I refuse to pay that amount again after a recent encounter with a supposedly reputable escort.

That's odd. I rarely have trouble directing girls. I do agree £100 is too much for 30 minutes, tbh anything past £80 is too much.

150 or more is a good ball park figure, keeps them safe and us safe. People willing to pay that much will be serious about it and serious about hygiene and treating the WG right I feel. That's a win-win for us all even if it requires more patience financially.

Why? Without telling me why I'm wrong I won't know if you possibly are. I feel like the more they charge the more likely they are to be safe (in all ways). I'd imagine the safest ones are the ones charging 300 plus per hour. I would imagine the less you charge the more risk as an WG. So why am I wrong?

Wait. I'm talking about 1 hour for 150 (incase you didn't realise).

30 mins 90+ seems ok (my opinion)

A pretty meaningless thing to say.

Plenty of providers give a crap service, regardless of whether they charge £70/r or £150/hr. You seem to be under the misapprehension that High Price Always = Quality. It doesn't work that way.

About the only thing that rings true in your post is that punters willing to pay that much will indeed be 'serious' about it. And, I guess, that a WG charging that much won't get many dustbinmen ringing her doorbell.

Offline winkywanky

Oh, and £150/hr doesn't mean the WG is 'serious' about it.

It doesn't mean she'll look as good as her expensive 'professional pictures', it doesn't mean she won't provide some of her services with reluctance, and it doesn't mean she won't charge extras (when she hasn't stated as much on her profile).

I know you were talking about per hour. You are wrong because there are no guarantees. A woman at £300 an hour could be trafficked, a woman at £200 an hour could be forced into it by an abusive husband, a woman at £150 could be a druggie doing it for drugs. A woman at £70 an hour could be a hobby escort who doesn't need the money, but does it for fun or our of boredom and a bit of pocket money.

I think you are trying to curry with favour with some of the escorts on here or maybe you are saying what you think people should hear.

No. I agree with all you've said. I was more talking about British girls, should have mentioned that. The abusive husband and druggie parts are true too for all nationalities agreed. I do know punting is a minefield. You have more experience than me and happy to admit if I am wrong. But I wasn't saying without a doubt, just more likely they will be safer the more they charge (in my mind - perhaps it's just a complete minefield / free for all and I'm talking bullshit in which case I am happy to admit I am wrong).

On paper what you say makes sense, but punting isn't like other areas of life or business. Also what winkywanky typed about higher priced not being higher class, better at sex or being reliable is true. There are £300 an hour agency escorts in London, no guarantees you won't get a cokehead barbie who does £150 worth of coke in one line in front of you.

Not the case in my opinion. Quite often the ones with the most money are the ones with the greatest sense of entitlement. That leads them prone to the 'I'm paying you so I can do what I want' attitude. Reports over the years in the media would seem to confirm this and that puts the escort at greater risk.

What a load of old cobblers. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Its got NOTHING to do with what a WG gets paid as to whether they will be safe or not in reality. Where do people like you get these ideas from. :rolleyes:

Some of us who pay that much and a lot less are serious about it and our hygiene and treat WGs with respect. A win-win for me in punting is to find a good WG with a great attitude who offers me a good service at the price they decide to charge.

For someone who's been lurking almost 4 years you seem to be utterly fucking clueless about what punting involves.
Suggest you try re-reading the forums for the past year and re-evaluate your world view before sounding off again.

Actually I shop at Waitrose, Sainsbury's, Tesco, Lidl, Aldi and Morrisons, wherever the price comparisons dictate the best deals on the items I want.   Almost without exception M&S stocks items that are poorer VFM whether identical or substitutes.  Which makes M&S a bit like those rarely used knock-off websites listing Latinas or EE girls for more than they are on the well known sites.

Much like Thais, transgenderism and cross dressing is part of their culture. That said a lot are very attractive, but where as EEs jam rolls in particular really did drive down prices for a few years nothing has since. It also had a knock on effect in that a lot of British girls around the 2000s really upped their game to compete whether that was special offers or offering gfe which ee take for granted now.

How do you account for girls who change their rates? I saw one girl at £120/hr, second time at a special offer rate of £80/hr. Stopped seeing her when she went to £150/hr and the last time I spotted her profile she was £200/hr. Was she less safe when I saw her at the lower rate the second time? Did she get safer as her rates increased?
