Do you ever get tips?
« on: 09 January 2020, 10:09:46 pm »
When I worked in parlours then tips were the norm but since I’ve been on AW then I have had only one tip in 4 years! Is it my Service or the amount that you charge on AW, as in it’s expensive as it is?

In a parlour you get the cash at the end of the booking but Indy then you get it straight away and so I dunno if this is anything to do with it.

I don’t expect tips of course but I just wonder why I don’t get them?

Ladies? ;D

I do get them now and again, but not that often and rarely if ever from punters who use AW. It tends to be in London too - never in my home town.

I do think it's likely more of a parlour thing because they know you're handing over at least some of what they give you to the house and they maybe think it evens things up a bit, whereas being indie means you keep it (and if you're specifically.talking about AW, they'll.also know that advertising on there costs next to nothing unless you stick all the bells and whistles on so they probably think you'll come out with about the same).

I rarely, rarely get tipped, no clue why & it's not like you can exactly ask.

I do not expect it, ever. I think it's the tackiest thing on the planet when I see an ad & the girl says, "Tips are always appreciated!" Or, "Good service is not cheap & cheap service is not good!" That last 1 is particularly prevalent here stateside; it just grinds my gears😡.

You think I did a good job, toss me a $50, I'd love that. Unfortunately it's as rare as a hen's tooth, again, for me. I do get a lot of chocolates, sparkling apple 🍎cider (non drinker, migraine trigger), an occasional Starbucks GC etc, so it's not the Sahara but actual cash? *shakes head* very unusual.

I definitely don’t expect tips that’s for sure but obviously it’s nice and I’m not gonna say no, I was just curious about indys getting them this is all.

I once had a client that gave me over £100 extra at the start of a 2 hour booking and I’m unsure whether this was to test me to see if I would declare it, which obviously I did and as I count the fee in front of them, then he saw that I saw it anyway and I said ‘what’s this, £100 extra by mistake’ and he was like ‘oops’, and I had a sneaky suspicion that he wanted bareback and rather than ask outright (not that I do this obviously) then he thought that I would just ‘know’ what he wanted.  A woman I worked with in a parlour had also been with him for 2 hours before me and he had actual sex with her for 2 hours and yet with me he told me that condoms made him soft and so we just talked, dfk, oral both ways etc, etc, and there had been rumours about her doing bareback in the parlour and so I think she did it with him hence him having sex with her for 2 hours, when I mentioned to her that I felt he overpaid me at the start of the booking to get bareback then her face went red and she looked nervous so it’s safe to say this is why he tried to overpay me. >:(

Yes this makes sense about the clients being kind due to the fact we had to pay management a certain fee per client and giving us extra.

Do you think you got tipped in London due to the fact there’s more money there than in the rest of the UKs cities?

In all my 10 years of working in London (posh places like Chelsea, Marylebone), tipping was rare.
Instead, I received gifts of scented soaps, sweets, candles and flowers. Perplexing to me, the costs of some gifts were more than £10 -why not just give me a tip  ???

Perhaps tipping is part of the parlour culture.

My friend who worked had many tippers; she charged £100 per hour for a standard menu of services, any extra services were tipped at the end. For example, £10 tip for the kissing, £20 for OWO, £40 tip for very good GFE. This is probably different than the 'I will tip you anyway for a great service delivered!' though. When the fees are higher, maybe clients assume it is all inclusive?

Very, very rarely, and the only big one I got was for an out-call to a famous country resort hotel.

I would rather have a cash tip than a present, unless it’s Xmas when I often get nice perfume and choc’s, because it’s odd when you get pressies from clients, we’re not their girlfriends and they don’t know us enough to know what we like, well not all of them know us.

Talking of this reminds me of a time when a client I had met twice booked me and bought me a bottle of Moët champagne near Valentine’s Day and I didn’t open it for him in the booking, I put in it my fridge for myself and boyfriend to have later, (obviously I didn’t tell him this) and after he left he sent me a text to say that the champagne was meant to be for him and I and that he was disappointed that I didn’t open it! I told him that if he had said something then I would have opened it for him, I also mentioned that I didn’t drink at work and I never heard from him or saw him again!! Oops!!

Oh well, THIS is something completely different, & also just chaps my hide, grrrrrr!
Client shows for an hour, has an extra $100 in the envelope. Hmm, I think. Does he want A or B? C or D? All of these are an additional cost....guess I'll find out🤷🏼‍♀️.
About 1/2 way thru & I'm giving some of my best BJ moves & say my usual, "Let me know when you're ready for the condom."
He literally whines at me, "Do we HAVE to?"
Aha. This is why I received an extra $100.😡 Too bad for you buddy, bc not only are you NOT getting BB, you're also not getting that $$ back.
I had him so cowed after 5 minutes of "Tell me why you think this is a good idea, no really, I insist." he left😂.

Tantric, girls are flat out offering that over here (stateside) for a mere $20 more. I'm staggered, shocked, floored, disappointed....you get the idea. My personal opinion is it shouldn't be done. That being said, if you're going to do it, charge enough to pay for the GD hospital bills that will crop up. And they will....

Only occasionally have i received money and it would mainly be down to them not have the correct change so instead of messing around tell me to keep it. If anything its mainly the odd box of chocolates. I do find that indian men in particular like to bring a little present with them. I ask one about it once and he said its in their culture to bring a small gift when visiting someones home. However small its the fact they have taken the time to bring something, its a lovely gesture x

Yes occasionally I do never associated it with London, but I'm not there that often.

The bareback guy is more about grooming I think?

I'm in London and rarely get tips or gifts it never crosses my mind. Nice when it happens though :) The odd American or mature gent are more likely to do that.
Like others say...I think parlours have a tipping culture as clients may be unsure of the split between you and da house.
As an Indy they know we keep 100% of the fee.

I did get tipped sometimes usually by around a tenner and twice by around £50. I also mentioned to a client that I was meeting a mate for a bottle of wine afterwards and he gave me all his loose change which came to about a fiver so I could have one on him! ;D
