Has anyone had an experience of punters reversing a payment via bank transfer ?

They can't with Amazon vouchers/gift cards, because you add the value to your account so you can spend it when you're ready. So if you went to add it and it said the balance was zero, no booking :)

Thankyou. I will see if the supermarkets have an option to add to account too as I would probably use those more than Amazon seen as my shopping bill is through the roof  ::)

Yes ! Me unfortunately, it was only for a £10 phone chat ! The guy had the call , then tried to reverse the payment but the bank immediately put my account on hold so I had to go in and i was given a number to contact fraud team ,luckily I had all the messages in black and white to confirm the call and the call log proving I did the call. Emails with the fraud team were slow and days between (they didn’t do calls!) …took a few days at least to get my account back ,then they tell me I should have a business account. Was very stressful,all over a tenna ! The icing on the cake …the same guy messaged me a few weeks later asking for another call  :FF :FF

That's bad over 10£ did you get to keep it? Only thing I'm worried about is them closing my account and keeping a big amount. Then the proof I have to show them about escorting they won't accept because of the type of job

I actually don’t know, I was so relieved to get my account open again and  fraud team off my back that I didn’t care at the time  !
I have 2 personal accounts. (One I class as business ) so I put escort cash /online payments / bank transfers from customers all in one bank so it’s logged down for tax/accounting purposes but i move it immediately into my other account which I use for savings , personal bills etc . I only leave business expenses in the business account. That way if for what ever reason it did get closed again. There’s nothing really in it to lose x

Good Morning everyone

Before Christmas I had a few time wasters so I've decided I want to start looking at taking small deposits for bookings.

What system do you use to take deposits that keeps your personal info (real name etc) secret from the client?

Thanks

Get a business account you can name it anything you like then you don’t have to give out your name.

If your a sole trader not all business accounts let you have a business name as such

TIDE will let you have a business name
But some of the online business accounts won’t

I use a mixture of my tide account and wishhush and occasionally Amazon vouchers

I’m with Nat West Bank and have a business account and could name it what ever I liked when I was setting it up.

Careful with Nat west, they have form in freezing people’s accounts without explanation.

I set up a couple of business accounts, one in a non-sex work business one a high street bank the other one of the newer online banks. The high street bank was VERY thorough, both wanted to include my name in the account name.

I do accept bank transfers from regulars I know I can trust. I check it is in my account before we start. I receive it pretty much straight away including weekends so guess each bank varies when you receive it.

Some weekend payments don't show in my app, but do show in the browser version. Also one bank (former building society) still doesn't process until next working day.
