I had half hour confirmed booking with Bethany. Arrived at the postcode that I'd been given by diamonds and realised i was not where i was meant to be.  Moved to the well known hotel nearby and phoned the agency with 5 mins till my booking started, informing them I was having problems finding the location. Agency were terrible in providing directions even with a map and sent me in the wrong direction and then back past the location even after i confirmed where I was.  What a carry on had me driving back and forth so decided to park the car and try by foot. Agency on the phone had me running around trying to find the location. Once we had figured it out, confirmed with agency I would still get my half hour and was told yes.

Got inside, Bethany looked gorgeous and said she thought I'd be a no show. Money sorted and no mention of how long i would have . A quick shower and back to the room for dfk and oral on me, then 69 and on with the rubber for sex. Feeling very rushed, I cum and get told my time is nearly up. Cannot believe this as I've only been 10 mins in the door.  Not happy, I call the agency only to receive an apology but that's no good to me so I ask for some of my money back and get offered 10% off next booking. I'm still not happy and basically it's tough luck.  Quick call to the owner and manage to get their commission back.  i missed half of my booking due to the agency's inability to give me directions to the location.
Very disappointed with this agency. Agree with looking4fun, they take their fees but don't know how to give directions to a punter,poor service to the punter and escort.  Very bad form diamonds.  Bethany on the other hand was very understanding.


Overall experience was let down by the agency and so I though it only right to give this review a negative.

[Looking4fun]

When was your booking?

[spartan]

Booking was yesterday just before lunch time.

[Looking4fun]

She told me she was moving location? but if she didn't you would think the agency would have sorted directions out, harsh  she gets a negative because of the agency

[Inquisitive Male]

Spartan, a very similar experience to yourself as I did a review of Bethany 17th February, which included the following transcript which was particularly annoying to myself as I am not from Gateshead/Newcastle and was actually early but couldn't find the turn or entrance to the apartments on Gateshead Quayside.

'No SatNav but could see where I wanted to be, or so I thought, twice in the Hilton car park ,call to Diamonds who only reiterated the address, panic beginning to set in. Building found, car abandoned, another call to Diamonds, now I have the flat number, but no answer from the intercom but was able to tailgate my entry into the building. Lift not working, Apartment door rung. What else could go wrong!!!'

I found the Agency useless in trying to assist me, and to keep repeating the address is no good to someone needing help in finding an apartment block, in fact it just infuriated me further so maybe the Agency staff (and not just at Diamonds) should have an understanding of where the ladies that they are representing, actually work from. It's not as if these locations change that much. Have just posted something on a thread about Chelsea and the fact I had to move from Dunston to Gateshead for a meet to compensate for one of their girls 'no show', the Agency again were pretty useless in helping me so I guess the answer is to invest in a SatNav.

Like your experience, Bethany was excellent, unaware of the clients problems again in getting to her apartment I at least on this occasion benefited from being her last meet of the day as she was able to ensure that I received the full duration of my meet and of course she provides such a fabulous service too. So like you I wasn't happy with the Agency, but had no complaints with the lady herself.

I'm no chris columbus but "baltic quay" gave me a good indication it was near a well known art gallery lol

[Looking4fun]

I'm no chris columbus but "baltic quay" gave me a good indication it was near a well known art gallery lol

Quoting my review as an example but she was working in a totally different location to where I seen her
Weird?

[flash1965]

I saw Bethany yesterday, after confirming the text I received from Diamonds told me where to park and even the general direction of the flat. (Baltic Quay). Called for flat number upon arrival. The entrance to the flats are signposted so is fairly simple to work out if your heading in the wrong direction.

[Inquisitive Male]

Re my review of 17 February. She wasn't working Baltic Quay then!
I wouldn't have need Chris Columbus, Sat Nav or the Agency if it had been as simple as that. In my case a very different location and for the help I got from the Agency in finding Bethany's apartment I might as well have used a compass or smoke signals. Repeating an address over and over is not a help, as I said earlier infuriating springs to mind. When I ring an Agency for assistance, and say I know I'm somewhere close but am in the Hilton Car Park for a second time and a further ten minutes has elapsed to hear the address be repeated again is maybe one of the reasons that I've not used Diamonds since.

I do think it's harsh that Bethany gets a negative from Spartan as it wasn't her fault but the review is about an overall package, the girls allow the Agency to represent them and vice versa so I can understand his frustrations as the 'team' providing the service were not up to scratch. I, as I say was fortunate that the hassle in getting to the apartment was quickly forgotten by the the young ladies abilities and assets.

[spartan]

Inquisitive, totally agree with you, service from diamonds is very poor.

Chris, I mentioned I was near Baltic quey only to be told its no.x on mill road. I was in fact directed away from the location only to be directed back to it.

Looking4fun, apologies if I quoted your review as I did think you saw Bethany in the same area.

Flash, good for you. If it was after I saw Bethany perhaps they sorted their act out.

[flash1965]

I was her first booking 10-11, to me this should have been done as a review of the agency not of Bethany

[spartan]

Good for you flash.

I based it on my overall experience. Perhaps I should have confirmed my time with Bethany before we got started but she could have also.

I did not appreciate being rushed either.

If an escort is being represented by an agency, it comes as a package so I stick with my overall negative, unless admin wish to change it.

[Looking4fun]

In my experience she wouldn't have been rushing you, just trying to please you in a shorter time & she's such a popular girl she probably couldn't extend your booking as her next punter shouldn't suffer because the agency couldn't help you find the location.
the boss won't change the the negative unless you ask him, it's your review

[AnthG]

In my experience she wouldn't have been rushing you, just trying to please you in a shorter time & she's such a popular girl she probably couldn't extend your booking as her next punter shouldn't suffer because the agency couldn't help you find the location.

But the agencies all use the statement of you are paying for the girls time, not what you get. So if the punter couldn't get his full time he has paid for. The agency (or girl) shouldn't start the booking in the first place.

I do think like you say it was entirely Diamonds at fault though and not the girl.

[Rod trotter]

I got shouted down when the agency fucks up and the girl gets a negative, i dont agree with it but to be fair the OP has no other choice.....i do however think the titles could be worded better unless its not allowed?? I.e if it all the agencies fault it should be headed "Diamonds Newcastle " (Bethany).

Theres been a few reviews where the agency fucks up completely and the girl gets a negative on here but it seems they go together so its a case of tough shit it seems.

Never mind.shame you got pissed around

[Looking4fun]

This review wouldn't put me off seeing Bethany, I'd just be asking for better instructions on how to get to the location next time or contact Bethany on uke, I'm sure she would be more help than diamonds

[johnny34]

Diamonds seem to be providing a shite service to both the punter & escort. Things seem to be getting worse since the new owners took over rather than better. I think the sooner Bethany is able to go Indi the better imho.

up to her to do something about it then.
She seems to have a few fans on here so no reason why she couldnt make it as an indie

[Dwilko]

Kind of a package deal in my opinion. Fair negative. I get the feeling if it was a less popular girl then the negative would be justified?

[GeordieBadass]

I'm a big fan of Bethany's. She's a cracking good lass and great at what she does. Not her fault the booking started late as the OP couldn't find the place but sounds like she did her best to ensure he had a good time. She was probably limited by further bookings. IMHO the review should not be negative on her and as has been suggested the title should reflect that. The review certainly won't stop me seeing her but I'll be making sure I know exactly where the location is. The place she was at is quite tricky to find with Sat Nav but Diamonds should have been able to give proper directions.
She would do well as an indie if she can handle the amount of e-mails she will inevitably get.

[BethanyDiamond]

Did the agency mess up? Yes they did. And no I'm not happy about it. First negative review I've ever received.
The location is easy to find but in Spartans defence he is from out of town. The lady on the phone also knew I was fully booked so there was never any question of the booking running over. She also gave him wrong directions at one point.
I was at fault for not confirming with Spartan that he would only get 15min but as he can confirm from the texts I showed him the agency were well aware of this and had confirmed he would be informed. She said she texted him to let him know. He seays she didn't . I have no idea.
For my own part I'd  been sat waiting for him since 11.15 as he had originally booked an hour and changed it last minute to half an hour. At 11.45.
I gave him back £20 from £60 as soon as he informed me. And no I wouldn't give him a refund as having sucked whipped cream off his dick and fucked him Till he came on my body there was no chance of a refund happening.
It's unfortunate the way things turned out. I hope your next booking goes better xz
As a client, Spartan was very friendly and I enjoyed our time.

[AnthG]

I gave him back £20 from £60 as soon as he informed me. And no I wouldn't give him a refund as having sucked whipped cream off his dick and fucked him Till he came on my body there was no chance of a refund happening.

But this is the exact issue I had with Diamonds that time back. I paid for 45mins, but I got a 20mins booking due to Diamonds screwing up the bookings. And the girl happily took £75 off me knowing she could only give me a 20mins booking.

Which you even said by PM to me (hope this is ok to thus say on the forum) that I should have held firm and demanded the entire time paid for from the girl. Which you were 100% right in saying this to me. I paid for 45mins, I should have got 45mins or £50 returned and only paid £25 for my 20min booking.

If he could only have a 15min punt. You should have took £25 off him not £50 for a 30min punt he would not be getting. You must see that is reasonable.  He got 15min booking, but he paid for 30mins. Like is said on Diamonds and every agency site. You pay for the girls time and nothing more so it does not really matter if in those 15mins you ate whipped cream off him.

I say this knowing Diamonds are at fault at this as Diamonds are world renowned for giving poor directions to the punts. Its one of the well known Diamonds'isms.

So please do not take the above as getting at you. I know Diamonds will be at fault here. I am just saying.

[FLYING BLUE]

I have just read this and I'm honestly surprised that the girl in question got a negative.

Too late now but, perhaps it would have been more appropriate to headline Diamonds as a negative as opposed to the WG?

Understand that Bethany chooses to be represented by an agency who, in my opinion, have completely lost the plot & I guess that's her decision - guilty by association (just noticed that the OP also states this & in that respect, I fully agree with him).

Harsh in my opinion but it's the Op's view - For the record, I have not seen Bethany (although I did try once)

Its happened a few times now where 100% its the agencies fault.theres no way of seperating the pimp from the girl FB they are a team and as such go down together,,yes its harsh but its happened to others.its unfair in my opinion but thats the rules im aftaid.she isnt the only one

There is a topic on UKE where a WG asks if its ok to work for more than one agency at the same time.

The thing I do not get is, why girls - especially girls on Diamonds right now, do not put their name down on more than one agency to see which brings them most money.

So for example work a Monday and a Tuesday at Diamonds and a Thursday and Friday at Allure/Amour/Premium, and then after a few weeks see which of the two brings you in most money and more importantly has less drama for guys punting you. And then basicaly leave that one and stick with the other (and even if you wanted, do the same with another agency for a short stint and see if that one brings you in the most) The agencies work for the girl remember not the other way around.

[sqlbatsman]

IMHO I do not agree with the separation of the responsibilities here.

There is no rule that you need to chose an agency to represent you. The ladies can very well represent themselves if they want. But the fact that a lady has chosen an agency to represent her, means she fails when they fail and vice-versa. Also if she continues with the agency in spite of them being incompetent, it means she has chosen to provide mediocre service and must be ready to receive a negative every time they mess up.

The service is as much about the handling of communications as it is about sucking whipped cream off someone's cock.

[Looking4fun]

I'd like to hear some sort of explanation from Diamonds about this, they take their commission but don't seem to care about the girls getting bad reviews due to their bad communication

[rugger35]

I had similar issues with Diamonds when I saw Bethany the other week she herself was excellent but I only ended up getting 35mins out of an hour booking after being giving duff information. Compounded by the fact that I don't drive and had to jump in another taxi to the address.

[FLYING BLUE]

I think we will wait a very long time for that to happen ;-)

I think we will wait a very long time for that to happen ;-)

I'm afraid your right mate, I know one agency boss who would have been on this review trying to sort it out for the punter,sort of proves diamonds couldn't care less

[AnthG]

I'm afraid your right mate, I know one agency boss who would have been on this review trying to sort it out for the punter,sort of proves diamonds couldn't care less

I think they all would be bar Diamonds to be honest.

Both Amour and Allure are fantastic for fixing issues. And you would suspect Premium would be the same given who runs it.

Its just Diamonds. They can be good and helpful at times. But its never consistent. Whereas with Allure and Amour you know everytime there is an issue they will help without fail.

With regards to the people not getting full time paid for, i.e the OP and also rugger35, they should be getting free return bookings from Diamonds due to this IMHO. I would email them a complaint to them via the website asking for this. As Diamonds have not logged onto UKP since the 25th January so its not likely they will see this now.

[Rod trotter]

In a business where getting the right girl at the right address and then passing on bookings is key youd think youd never make a mistake ffs

I agree, it would be worth the OP asking to get the title changed to highlight that it's more Diamonds at fault than the girl. By the time the guy arrives the girl doesn't really have a choice as she has to finish early in order not to mess up the next booking. The ending up with 2 pissed off customers.

We do seem to be getting a lot of negatives at the moment due to poor comms, bookings not taking place, more than actual bad service when the punter gets there.

[Looking4fun]

She's working indie this weekend lets hope she stays indie full time

[spartan]

So i took Anths advise and contacted diamonds about my complaint and requested free booking.

Response i got as follows:

'Hi Spartan

Thank you for your email.

Your booking was originally for 60 minutes with Bethany. You cancelled the
first 30 minutes leaving Bethany unable to have another client before your
booking. You then turned up 18 minutes late for the shorter booking.
Having spoken to the woman taking the bookings she said only 3 minutes of
that delay was down to her giving you the wrong direction. You got to your
appointment and proceeded to have a shower, have the full GFE with Bethany
and then were given a discount of £20 and left after 20 mins which was the
longest she could possibly give you due to other bookings.

Whilst you seem to think your time is very valuable you have no such
respect for Bethany's time or for the clients who were booked in after
you. They were not going to be inconvenienced because you change your
mind, cannot follow directions and then, even after a 33% discount, ask
for a free session.

I will not be authorising a free session.

Kind regards

Anne

Diamonds'

I did cancel 30 mins of my initial 60 min booking but this was early in the morning along with my confirmation text.
It was in fact 18 mins of the 18 min delay down to diamonds giving me wrong directions.  10 of the 20 mins i was with Bethany was for my booking, the rest on the phone to diamonds.
Had i known i only had 10 mins i would have rescheduled, not go ahead and let alone have a shower or have whip cream licked of my dick .
I can follow directions very well if given correctly but the lady on the phone herself did not know where to direct me.
Damn right i got a partial refund, 20£ instead of 15£ because Beth had no change. If it was however only 3 mins delay diamonds fault like they claim,  why return some of the money.  They know it was all down to their inability to give me directions but have the cheek to blame me  for their cock-up.

[spartan]

I have a lot of respect for Bethanys time and also the punters booked in after me.  As soon as Bethany said your times nearly up to my shock, I went straight to get ready. Its not in my nature to argue, even with the lady on the phone who was telling me its tough luck.

I was just disappointed after all the glowing reviews about Beth, my experience was one to forget.

[oldfart]

Hi Spartan,
 would it not have been best to cancel when you knew you would be late,
 and booked Bethany another time and getting your full time.

   i think that's what i would have done.

    not really fair a bad review for Bethany,
    after it was nothing to do with her really.
     Diamonds cock up

 

     

 

[Looking4fun]

So you got 20 minutes for 40 quid?

[spartan]

Like I said, diamonds made me late and confirm I would still get my full booking.  Had I known I would only be getting 10 mins I would have cancelled.

I was there for 20 mins, 10 mins for my booking and 10 mins trying to sort out the cock up as advised by Bethany.  I paid £60, got £20 back.

So depends how you look at it and how critical you want to be with time and money.

[AnthG]

Whilst you seem to think your time is very valuable you have no such respect for Bethany's time or for the clients who were booked in after you.

Diamonds'

She comes across as a complete and utter cheeky cow in that response. And you can now see first hand why Diamonds are going under big style right now given the tone and content of that response if that is the way she talks to customers. (she is the new, current owner of Diamonds, buying it from John in December 2015; the owner who bought it from George in December 2014)

I have a lot of respect for Bethanys time and also the punters booked in after me.

Like I said above. Bethany has advised herself to me, do not ever leave a booking till you get your time you've paid for. And also Bethany should have told you at the start of your booking you were not going to get full time you had paid for.

We are paying a lot of money here for these bookings. And Diamonds are notorious for giving out poor directions.

The problem is with Diamonds, unlike other agencies, they do not give out the address prior to the punt. They give out very generic info such as just a postcode and often if you are lucky another street or landmark it's close to  - e.g Off Chillingham road is one I used to always be told for their Heaton flat - The problem is, Chillingham road is a very long road that would take 20-30mins to walk down it from top to bottom. So its a case of 'good luck' if you went to the wrong end of Chillingham road and you were on foot trying to get to their old flat there.

And then its a case of in the 5mins before the booking starts when you confirm is the time they only give you the exact address and you then need to rely upon the call handler telling you where to go and giving you good enough directions to get from where you are to where you need to be. And if you do not know the area, that is a nightmare and takes much longer than 5mins. (and before anyone says it, if you phone before 5mins, they just refuse to give you the info saying call back 5mins before the booking and we will tell you).

You do not have any maps in your hand or anything so many times it's a confusing mad dash to find the house/flat/place you need to go to in the 5mins before your time is supposed to start. Its a stupid system really.

An 'interesting' and badly worded response from Diamonds which is bordering on straight rude.

This could (and should) have been handled much better by them.

A simple gesture of goodwill, i.e. a small discount of the next booking may have been all it took but instead, they have most likely alienated the customer completely and doubtless alienated others (myself included) from using their services in the future.

Good luck with that 'Anne'

[foreverchanges]

My sentiments exactly FB.

[Tiger63]

Dear Spartan.
Thanks for the money.
It was your own fault.
NEXT!!!!.


Think that about sums it up.
Shame Bethany gets a negative but its about the whole booking.

[Lucky66]

(she is the new, current owner of Diamonds, buying it from John in December 2015; the owner who bought it from George in December 2014)

I am confused now. I have thought the current owned of diamonds bought it from George. I did not know it had been sold again. How do you sell an escort agency? I have also read on here that Gracies girls were involved with running diamonds is this true or has Hannah bought diamonds?

 I have had many slightly shortened bookings with diamonds in the past due to being unable to contact them as the phones were busy for the 10 mins before my appointment. So
I hated using new unknown to me apartments as it generally lead to a shorter booing. Have to say tho my last shortened booking was with amour when I lost time at the beginning due to gem having problems contacting the girl and also lost time at the end as the girls driver had arrived early and wanted the girl to leave for an out call. Not good !!

I have seen Bethany once and she was very good, I am unsure where any of the diamonds flats are now and that's what stops me booking her again.

do you supply the whipped cream or do the punters have to fetch their own ?
