I never think just with my dick nowadays and have a plan B option so I find it easy to walk if necessary. And I don't double book WGs.
I don't do business with clear bait and switch low lifes, it doesn't matter what the switch looks like assuming I am aware its a B&S which I imagine I don't know sometimes as I do punt with WGs who have no face pics, or free face pics. Sadly as I see it loads of punters who do or have done reviews on here have given a positive review on the switch which to me just encourages them more. And I know its not against the rules to do such a review but to me a B&S can never be a positive as the WG set out to deceive from the start.
Virtually everything I tell a WG is a lie, I don't trust any WG including regulars with my true personal information and I don't do Outcalls to my hotel room let alone home which I see as utter madness. And I am aware that some on here haven't had any problems with Outcalls, it only takes 1 bad WG or pimp though, not worth the risk to me however small that risk may be.
Never ever pay a WG a deposit, I don't get myself into punting scenarios where a deposit should ever be asked for, but when it has been on rare occasions that's the end of my interest. My punting is a pay the WG in person on the day pastime.
I use a punting phone which is only on when I am arranging and on my way to punts, simple to change number from time to time. I never email WGs, if they don't have an advertised phone number they don't get my business, I wont jump through WGs hoops anymore. So needing to have A/W feedback and do a booking request on that poxy site is a never for me. I punt to suit me NOT a WG. If she operates how suits me it could be punt on, if not I go elsewhere.
I don't trust 1 word on A/W unless I know and trust the punter who has left feedback. How I operate is a WG I haven't met before has to show me she offers me a good service and does what her profile says, until then I am always suspicious and ready to walk. Of course reviews on here from punters I find credible and others I know in person can greatly help which is appreciated.
I will always do a negative or neutral review quickly after the punt or as is more usual attempted punt to warn other punters. I may name and shame bad WGs on here on other punters review threads if the WG has fucked me over, I don't care if the reviewer doesn't like it. Good for him that he had a positive punt, I didn't and that's the consequence of fucking me over, I never forgive or forget. And other punters apart from the reviewer may not be aware for all I know, though A/W reviews are often linked in well nowadays. However, if the WG had a previous profile which happens quite a lot the reviews linked to that profile might not be linked in. Also just because a WG A/W profile is down doesn't mean 100% she is gone, some take them down then put them back up, or change area and name but kept the same numbered link, so I wouldn't not do a negative review because the profile happened to be gone at the time. I will do positive reviews when I decide to do so.
My usual max distance is a 50 mile round trip from home which I rarely go over, and I try to time things so I am in the WGs area anyway on other business though the WG wont know this. I also say if asked nowadays that I got a cab to the WGs place, I don't say I drove myself, me having a car is nothing to do with a WG. I always park away from the WGs premises, NEVER park where a WG insists is my advice. The fact is the WG will know you will be with her and for how long, who knows what some low life might do. Plus the WG or pimp may take your reg number down and share it with others for all I would know, again not worth the risk to me however small it may be.
I go on my instincts so when a WG opens her door to me for the first time if I get a bad vibe like a face like a smacked arse, a monotone voice with no effort to be friendly I may well walk. My logic is obvious, a WG should be trying to impress me especially before I have handed my cash over, if they cant make the effort to do so that's a big red flag to me. Any hint of a bad attitude is enough for me to walk nowadays and book in with my plan B usually a regular.
I don't knowingly punt with forum WGs and haven't for years now, I used to off another punting forum before UKP existed, the problem I found was a small number had no interest in discretion and knew a few things that I had told a previous WG. So not worth the risk for me to punt with any of them now, and I know some or many would be fine, but that's a rule I now have.
I wont buy anything off A/W including WGs PG pics, I use the site as a location tool as its the best for that but I wont directly contribute to their coffers. IMO the owners are scumbags, they certainly allow many well dodgy profiles to exist. IF they strictly enforced age verification I may buy a card from a Paypoint anonymously so I can still access the site, or use a VPN. I would decide that if and when it occurred.
Sadly if a punter has something to lose in life, a partner, kids, a job etc in my opinion being extremely careful when punting is wise. It is not illegal to punt with an off/street WG of course who isn't being forced and/or underage but like it or not paying for sex is looked down upon. Great if a punter doesn't care who knows he punts, not all of us are in that position so I do what I can to negate the risk. Obviously I could do more, by not posting on here or elsewhere, I choose to continue posting but who knows if that might change or when.
Punting is a business transaction NOT a relationship, I stick to that and can punt with good regulars loads of times and not lose track of it. Its very clear to me some even on here treat punting like a relationship, up to them but not a good idea in my book.
