punting in the northwest (massage) is very scarce it seems

[JM73]

I know I'm not the most prolific of punters, a lot of that down to medical circumstance lately but I've noticed less and less reviews in the massage section of North West.

Very few reviews are posted weekly let alone daily unlike before.

What's everyone's perspective on this?
Financial probably the biggest factor perhaps or are many still punting but not reviewing?

Just curious because I used to look forward to reading reviews daily whilst being unable to punt myself 🤪

Thoughts??

possibly because we've seen several times in the NW the effect a review of a massage girl can have: sackings, closures, withdrawal of services

i really enjoy a good massage but the quality of massages available now, and the quality of HE, has meant that the overall massage experience has also dipped big time esp as prices have risen over the last year for add ons such B2B etc.

So for me personally i am now visiting the same places and seeing the same girls who i know will give me the quality of service for the price i pay so i have not been reviewing them each time as i have already reviewed them

[Bustydusty]

I only see the same ones Prisca Sofia and Claire - just cba haggling about extras or going to see any of the million Chinese places where they constantly change the girls
Also I often get a (sometimes decent) massage between pops when seeing an escort where I’ll get fk,owo,cim and sex for no more than massages generally cost
Off the top of my head Ashanti at Roses gives a good massage

I started going to massage places because they had regular staff members that you could specifically book to see (Kat at Hatta for example.)  Now it seems that staff turnover is so frequent that the best you can hope for is a consistent parlour rather than a consistent girl.  I generally get a good experience at Genki but I mostly don't bother asking the girl's name anymore because by the time I review it, the chances are she's moved on so the review is more about the place rather than a specific staff member.

I used to enjoy Pink Peony when I knew I could book Coco but like most places, there isn't a name of a girl who's there long enough to build up a good rep.  It makes everything a bit more hit and miss.

Because the quality of massage and HE has become so variable and I have grown tired of the haggling necessary to get down to sensible money,I have decided to give the Thai/Chinese places a swerver. If I do fancy a rub n tug I visit Claire,Sofia or Prisca. You know what you are going to get - and no haggling!

Has anybody seen Prisca since she went away as  price seems to have gone upto £50

Tbh I was thinking that myself which is a shame because the whole purpose of this forum is to provide information on where best to visit and what's provided. VFM etc but I get it.

The SP needs to be respected at all times. Ah well.

Ive seen her and I think it went up to £50 quite a few months ago - personally I think she’s the best esp at that price
More teasing than Claire and Sofia plus the option of ow - premises nowhere near as good tho obviously

In all fairness the scene in Liverpool has gone stale, so apart from the constant churn of girls through the chimes and Thai places there haven’t been any new girls for a while, so I would suggest most punters have their regular girls and therefore don’t see the need to constantly review after each visit. Liverpool probably name Layla, Irina and Tania as most reliable decent non Asian pints. Last decent newbie was Leticia but that was probably 2 years ago now and she appears to have gone legit

Completely agree with this, I haven’t been to Pink Peony or Sakura due to the cost of the massage before you get to the extras which are nothing special.

I keep looking further afield for the adverts showing the total price but haven’t found anything to tempt me. Maybe when Jopan/Lin returns to Southport I’ll pay her a visit. Might even try Maureen in St.Helens for the Gilf experience just to make a change.

[standardpostage]

Have not reviewed for a while. Found a regular who is not advertising.
I will review if she advertises.

[darby29]

Not surprising its getting scarce to find good places when they totally confuse you.  Tried to contact Maureen in St Helens last week by phoning.  Immediately got a text to say "please text me".  So I sent the text asking the relevant questions within ten minutes.  Five days later my text was replied to saying "ring for details thx".  So you do what you are requested to do and then get asked to do what you did in the first place.  What's that all about?

Far to many options out there now, 70% of them I would say are all subpar, not worth visiting and are just trying to cash in on the gravy train with new customers and not repeat customers.

When I first started going for massage around 2007 there was very limited options, hardly any shops and most where independent. Due to the limited options You generally got better service.

I have found these days, trying out new places or new girls is to much of a risk to reward for the cost of the massages. I find it a better option to stick to regulars or well reviewed girls to make sure I get the right service for the fee paid.

I would expect this is the case for many regular members going for massage, so if members are visiting regulars and already well reviewed providers, the reviews are going to slow down.

*just to note I have travelled down south a fair bit over the last 4 months and the scene down there isn't much better and the costs are higher than up here. So it really does sting if you get a shit massage down there.

Cheers to all that have replied.
I understand that others are less inclined to review for fear of being the SP into trouble as well so like you've pointed out, we're left seeing regulars.

I think reviews are still necessary to aide the OP decision making so we're not losing out of at least we're minimising our poor experiences.
But where discretion is needed, then just leave out the SP details, date, time visited etc and maybe not be as descriptive/detailed in what was offered but make it clear it's worth the visit.
I'm sure we can all use creative license so inform others of somewhere to visit and still give names of the SP without the full blown account.
Thoughts?

Just to add my 5pence for what it's worth

Bar one on here recently which wasn't anywhere near where I live, I don't think anything is standing out as a potential for me to go bar my faves. Very similar to what someone else has said here really

If I want be really turned on, but an ok massage I'm off to Prisca
If I wanted a damn decent massage, with an ok h/e, I'm off to Pontip to see Lin
If I want a hybrid of the two, I'm off to urban Thai

I want to see the Claire and Sofia at some point although from wheat I remember, one of them started to get lack luster reviews. And I'll definitely see the girls in Cheetham hill (Roby at queen's is it?) but really, there's nothing new on the market to really make me want to go and try something or someone new

That's quite common for her.
She's very cautious.

I regularly look out for new entries on gumtree within about 30 miles and have often TOFTT, but they're few and far between.
It's generally the same old same old.

I had a booking with Maureen last week but she cancelled, saying she had a sore throat and would be available again on Tuesday of this week, so rang again Tuesday, no answer, sent a text, no response, so basically given up on trying to get a booking from her

She doesn't work all the time, and seems to go AWOL for a while when her name comes up on UKP.
Let the dust settle before you try again.

Thanks for that.  Point taken.
