I am now able to view bedpage in Northern Ireland. However, the very few adds under escorts (actually only 1 each day) dont have phone numbers displayed. Is this due to a VPN number (whatever that is?)

It?s on Page 1.
I'm glad I got all the Cynthia Payne books before the prices rocked to sky high.

Folks, do you really want to give your money to an unknown entity that hasn't done anything to prove they are safe and secure, that they won't be closed down any time soon and there is traffic of clients?

I think it would be fair for them not to charge at this point. This website is barely working and they are asking for money already?
What it looks to me is that they are preying on desperate people.

I googled as a punter would searching for escorts. Bedpage doesn't come up on the first page on google. I always thought these were a scam. Really to give them your paypal login details and password is ludricus. 

If they had,a voucher means to pay maybe I would try.

They texted me last year to join.

I wish I had Pams email adresse still, I'll look later.

Bedpage is still down in Canada and US: Site is under maintenance.  I don't know the meaning of that.

But that may mean that the FBI is already after them. Or that they are moving their business entirely to Europe (which would be the smart solution).

But since there are no punters on Bedpage currently, I think we must be careful before spending money on this site. If it is possible to advertise for free, that's fine. Otherwise, you have to think a little before throwing money out the window.

What are you googling, lotm? Googling 'London escorts' has them absolutely nowhere.

You don't actually give anyone your PayPal log in details 😂 now doing that would be really stupid  but I usex PayPal to pay for an advert and had no problems

Now Bedpage is accessible not only in Europe but also in the United States and Canada.

But there is a big change. They are under the protection of CloudFlare, an American content delivery network (CDN) service.

I wonder if this will save them from the claws of the FBI.

Why would that save them from the claws of FBI? Could you elaborate Lotus? Thanks. ;)

Personally, I think that continuing to accept US visitors and continuing to do business with US companies for domain names, hosting or CDN is silly.

As Albert Einstein said: The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.

So if Bedpage hopes to experience a different fate than Backpage, maybe they are insane. ;)

But what could lead Bedspage managers to believe that using CloudFlare could protect them from the FBI? What can lead them to believe that they do things differently now?

I do not really know. In my opinion, accepting ads from American sex workers, accepting American visitors, doing business for hosting or CDN with an American company, is continuing to do the same thing. But here are three hypotheses:

1) CloudFlare (a US company) has subsidiaries in many countries with headquarters in various cities including London. Perhaps they are convinced that their non-US subsidiaries are not subject to US laws?

2) CloudFlare is (among other things) a content delivery network (CDN). That is to say that it hosts the data of a website on more than a hundred servers (151, I believe) located on several continents: America, Europe, Asia, Africa or Australia .

So I guess they can host the content of a specific website (Bedpage, for example) on non-US servers and claim that they are not subject to US laws?

3) CloudFlare is accused of protecting unsavory organizations. Maybe the Bedpage managers think that CloudFlare will use all its stuff to protect them?


But as I said, I do not really know. What I do know is that some people have dubbed CloudFlare... CrimeFlare. ;)
