50% is a lot, but I guess it's that because they're providing drivers. Don't be fooled that agencies provide security. By the time they realise something is wrong it'd be too late anyway. I heard of an incident where an escort ended up jumping out of a window to get away from a client, and the driver the agency provided driven off when he was aware there was bother going on! Agencies would be reluctant to inform the police of goings on because what they do isn't legal. There as one case where an agency involved police because of threats being made towards their escorts, and they were closed down shortly afterwards - this was a well regarded agency that represented mainly english ladies.

For your own safety do consider going independent and finding ladies in your local area to buddy with. This site offers fantastic guidance on how to get started. If you are keen on joining an agency I hope you get recommended a good one in your area. In my experience all my agencies have met with me before putting me on their website. Otherwise how would they know you really are the person in the photos? Plus they should want to meet you to see that you're a confident person and clearly comfortable with your decision to be an escort x

Yes, it says something about the agency that they're not prepared to meet you, and it's not good.

For 50%, I'd be expecting an incall location too, but things can vary. Work out what you'd actually be taking home, and ask 'Is that enough?'

Agency work is not safer: they have a vested interest in sending you to anyone with the money. This can include people who other workers refuse to see again - it's not the owners in the room. Do have a look here for a lot more reasons why agency work is not recommended, even though it does work for some.

I think it's not enough. I would probably feel exploited.

Hmmm, not wanting to meet you sounds a bit dodgy to me, do they even get your photos done?

I've done some modelling before so I have pictures already, but I don't think they would help with it anyway.


Thank you all so much for your replies! This forum is extremely useful, I have no idea where I'd have turned without it.
I've decided to apply to/wait to hear back from other agencies, and I'll also try to look for someone to buddy with in the meantime. I guess I have enough time to try a bit of everything over the summer and decide what works best for me. I'll have a look at massage parlours as well.

Thanks again xx

Why dont you just do a day or two a week in a london incall place. They dont take 50% if you find the right one so you can walk away with about 600 a day-ish depending on yourself plus it means you have all your bookings coming in between set hours on a set day so you know where you are regarding your schedule x

Thank you for all the useful responses once again!

I've been wondering if anyone could PM me any good Central London parlours? I'd be very grateful. I've found some on Google already, just looking for some recommendations. I didn't want to start a new thread for this.
