Abrupt Texts

[Count Backwards]

I've tried to contact a few Thai girls recently to enquire about services and check availability. I'm used to having to ask the same question 3 times to get an answer but more recently the responses have been quite abrupt "yes" with nothing else or today I got "nope". I'm still not sure what she was saying "no" to.

No wonder they aren't getting many bookings. I'm not sure if it's down to poor understanding of English, a handler who can't be bothered or if they don't like my tone - but these have all come off my HL.

The person who was sending "yes" messaged me later to say "I free now". Sorry, that was a hundred miles ago. I've moved on. These things take a big of organising and I need more confidence that it's actually going to happen.

Is there a point to your rant OP ?

Yes.

I've also noticed in the last couple of months that i've had some one word replies and not what used to be the standard 2 or 3 text replies with a menu of services and prices etc
Perhaps a handler or whoever helps arrange these things or sets up standard messages on the girls phones has changed recently 

I agree though it makes it hard work, whereas I used to text asking if a girl was working and get a list of services and prices including extras and exclusions along with a postcode you now just get a reply saying "Yes" so then have to ask for a postcode etc and it becomes like 20 questions

The maid of the SPs is probably receiving 100s of text messages every day and is getting worn down by them and thus the responses you are receiving are getting shorter. My suggestion is ask clear simple questions and then you should get decent answers.

[Waterhouse]

Yes.

[Cheltclient]

Yeah it’s difficult this. On one hand, I get it. If you’re getting tons of text, most of which don’t follow up with a booking, must get hard to send constant replies and be friendly. But on the other hand, if an SP (or maid) is abrupt, it tends to put me off. Just makes me wonder whether that unfriendliness might follow into the booking.

I think some of the more tech savvy operators use WhatsApp for Business and have a pre-loaded response with menu of options.

That at least automates the first stage of the process, along with a few other handy features.

But if, as suggested, it  pisses potential customers off so much they go elsewhere, what's the point?

From what the OP is describing, with one word answers, and not sending a helpful menu of services, the people who are pissing him off are not tech savvy and not using WhatsApp for Business.

A message to say an account is using WhatsApp for Business  shows up in the details about an account when you send a message in WhatsApp so its easy to tell if someone is using it.

What gets me is the number of girls who just reply with "Hi".

You ask if they're available and where they are and they just say......."Hi"
So maddening!!!

I sometimes try to convince myself it's because the girl herself is doing comms.  Mostly get this from Latinas and some Euros claiming not to be Rom.  Particularly frustrating when you ask again, breaking down texts into single questions  and they continue to not give the answer needed to make the booking happen i.e. confirmation of prices and services and address/postcode 

[Diggerd91]

I think the language barrier is a part reason for this , keeping it simple to yes or no is probably easier if you don’t speak the language and they probably can’t understand very long messages …by long I mean longer than “are you available”

Some are better than others

They all know about Google Translate, comms is not difficult nowadays

This.

Latinos most guilty

[MLawro93]

My only big issue is when they request you write a response in a specific way, which effectively states what you want, etc.

You do that, and you still get a "Hi" response, which is even coupled with a "What you want baby?"

At that point I don't bother. Either they are heavily managed or just not all there.

Your number could be saved as a timewaster or you message quite frequently but don't book

Multiple messages of hi and no substance can be infuriating for both sides

Hmm yeah, I get this.
I will often message a girl, ask for list of services/extras and if she comes back with a shopping list to rival my weekly shop at sainsbury's I'll normally send a polite reply back thanking her but a no thanks.
Mindful that this has happened a fair few times with touring Brazilians on the south coast who seem to have the same MO.
Perhaps they have the same pimp too and eventually I'll be blocked

I like the shopping list as it gives me all the information I need in one or two messages and I can then make a decision on if I want to see the SP and what combination of services I'd like.

The ones I don't like are the ones who say text me when you're 10 minutes away without requiring a booking. Just makes me think that they won't put the effort in on the booking and I'll turn up and they'll be triple booked, so I don't bother replying.

Potentially could be something like this. However, I've found it to happen consistently over the years, and although I do have a punting phone, I change the number semi-regularly. Should state this only happens with people are evidently brand new to the scene or London, doesn't happen with any of the more experienced SPs.

Too many things thrown into the extras list and silly pricing means they go straight in the bin for me.
One Brazilian I enquired on the other week quoted £40 to wear heels in a list of extras that took several minutes to read

Yup, definitely avoid these not willing to take bookings.  If I want a walk-up I'd rather go to an established brothel who maintain a decent rep.

Also suspect it's a clash of punting cultures where the SPs are used to walk-ups and don't honour bookings with girls taking punters by turn or whomever they're first to answer the door to that chooses them.

[Munter84]

I always operate on the assumption that the SP (or whoever is handling comms) is busy, has basic English, and assumes all punters are time-wasters and fantasists until proven otherwise. Hence I keep enquiries very clear, consise and direct. It usually works well. Any SP who then can't or won't give me a straight answer then gets binned off for another day.

[RandomGuy99]

The ones that offer "Deep Thought" always intrigue me. 

What does that look like?

Do I have to bring my own topic to think deeply about?

How long do we think?

How deep is deep?

I prefer texts as it's clear and in writing but a few years ago I had a Romanian call me after i'd text to ask what number she was (i'd had the text saying she was ready but she hadn't given me the house number)
Anyway she told me it was 57 so I repeated it back clearly "FIFTY SEVEN" which she confirmed and I checked again just to be sure, I quite quietly knock on 57 but no answer so I knock a bit harder but still no answer despite people clearly being in the house as the TV was on in the front room.
I then get a call asking where I am and I say outside can you open the door but the girl says you're at the wrong house and tells me she's a few doors down on the corner.
Turns out it's 67 FFS 
Still could have been worse, thank fuck 57 didn't answer
