Ignore me I had 3 back to back no shows. Really hacked off

If you are still working it may be worth it to ask for deposits. There will be plenty of wankers and idiots with no intention to see you.

One of my regulars i see once a week said he needs to cut back as the place he works is struggling financially due to coronavirus and could be out of a job in a few weeks unless things change for the better. This will have a knock on effect with other businesses too plus people self isolating will affect our business too.

I got it and i didnt have my green light on, havent for a week x

No green light for me either and I do not offer other services but I received the email from AWork today too. It could be that it is sent to everyone as AW revenue must be dropping rapidly with sps taking long breaks from real life meets so not needing to pay so much for advertising.

They could be sending them in groups or alphabetically (areas or cities etc) who knows but I doubt just a few are getting them. You may still find yours any day now.   Those sps who already do cam and/or phone chat don't really need to be reminded to ramp up those services though do they?

I am escort only but my light wasn’t on yesterday so it may be an escort only that gets them.

Mine too, and I got one. We can't blame them for wanting to try and get those of us who don't pay them a cut for this other stuff to give it a go - I daresay at least some people who would never have wanted to do webcamming will be thinking about giving it a go even if I'm not one of them.

Hey Ladies,

I am feeling really stressed right now. I know some of you have civvy jobs but if we go into lockdown will you still be able to go? As a massage therapist my work is dead and I really don’t want to escort right now aside the virus I think it will be very quiet and not worth the hotel money etc plus I think clients will think “how many guys has she seen today” ugh!

I’m all set up for camming and was on AW earlier but with 500+ girls online at the time (around 4pm-6pm) I didn’t even have one single call and I don’t think I’m changing over the odds for group and private - it’s just my profile is lost and then AW cash in and make you bid to be seen and pay more just to get your profile to the top. It really is so frustrating and unfair and they have the monopoly AND waiting two weeks to be paid out is ridiculous.

If anyone has any tips to boost cam clients or any other good sites or a way to play AW in your favour please please let me know.
I have zero patience as it is.

I sat in underwear for over 30 mins - gave up, put joggers on over the top and watched TV and waited for the cam to ring but literally nada. :'(

Ill give it another try now  ::)

Stay safe, sane and sensible

Xxx

I don’t want to webcam, or do anything else sex related, and I am happy just doing the escorting, as long as I make at least £300 a week then I can manage and it’s totally doable even just now, plus I have signed up with a cleaning company and you download their app and when the jobs come in then you take it or not, it’s very similar to how a taxi company works with their app.

Someone else said here that up North then folks don’t care as much and it’s the same in Scotland, though they care so little that it’s bordering on ignorant and annoying but hey, it’s their choice if they want to book an escort with all this going on.

We all just want this to end though, what if this is how it’s going to be for the next year or so, or are these things strictly seasonal?

When I started escorting I swore I would never do webcaming I am one of those people who are so impatient. Even if I thought of doing it now I am fucked as I have two sons who live with me as a single parent one goes to work  and one in a boarding school all are home as from this week. Will just have to survive on savings cut right  down on all the luxuries for now am afraid.

I just hope that the government start making changes for those of us who need to pay rent. I'm struggling.

I am up to date (I think) with the info on mortgage holidays for 3 months but private renters are not included and individual landlords could prove difficult to deal with.

Apparently the government are going to be telling us about help for renters also in the next couple of days. I've noticed a significant drop in my income particularly over the last couple of weeks. I put this down to the majority of my clients being 60+, the uncertainty about finances for people who have to isolate themselves doesn't help either.
