Genuine Escort Sites?
« on: 20 August 2009, 04:07:17 pm »
Hiya,

I am considering becoming a social escort, after contacting a few agencies two have replied offering to market a profile for me. Although I have read warnings about agencies that require a monthly fee.

I'm posting this hoping that someone may know of these two agencies and may be able to advise me on whether or not to join them... 

One is ExtraPillow.com

and the other is iescorte.co.uk

Thanks!xx

Hello!

Having googled them both- I would say that iescorte is a genuine social only escorting site as they say they do not ask for a registration fee from you, and they also advertise escorts to members of the public without having to pay to view profiles. Another way to tell a scam agency is if they advertise "how to become an escort" on their landing page rather than the escorts on offer for clients to book a date with. This site wins points there.

No idea how much business they could get you though because in my experience the social side of most escorting either doesn't happen or is a prelude to sex.

The other site- extrapillow.com.... regardless of what they say, it looks like a sexual service site to me because of the provocative pictures. A bloke is hardly likely to see some of those poses and think "they look like they'd be the right girl to accompany me to my sister's wedding". Methinks the contents of his pants would be talking to him in all honesty.

There are LOTS of threads on social escorting on saafe, I don't know how to do the little link things but all you have to do is type "social escort" into the search bar and all of the topics should come up for you to browse.

ExtraPillow isn't an agency, it's an advertising site. They'll create a profile for you but they're not saying they can find you work.

iEscort? looks reasonably genuine although that doesn't mean they won't try to get some money from you once you've applied, many of the scams don't mention the registration fee upfront. If they don't ask you for money then you could give it a try.  I'd be a bit uncomfortable with them taking the money instead of you (and I imagine that would be annoying if a client wanted to extend a booking), but it's not a huge red flag as it is with sexual agencies who claim they'll take the money and pay you afterwards.

Another one to avoid is Candy Escorts who offer some social escorting but ask for hundreds of pounds up front promising the earth. If it sounds too good to be true, it most likely is. These arent to be confused with CandyWall who do adult phone chat and/or webcam.
Good Luck and welcome.

If you're the lady who wrote to me recently, welcome to the forum and I'm glad to see you've signed up. But please heed my advice on the fact that there is very little call for social escorting, if at all. If you are lucky enough to get any work, appointments would be few and far between, not enough to sustain you.

But that's not to say that you have to turn to this line of business if it's something you don't have the stomach for. Please think long and hard before you take any steps.

I like that iEscort? is upfront about there being no guarantee of work, even if they spell it "guarentee".

Indeed, for someone trying to put across a high quality image, they could really do with someone checking their grammar: "Proffesional engagements ... an Escorts conversational and social skills are as important as there appearance", "Privite dates whether to a resteraunt", etc etc.

My guess is that they're new, I doubt they'll make much 40% commission, but they don't set off the scam alarm bells. I also doubt they'll last a year.

Hi and welcome to the site, you will find this site and all it's memebers here completely invaluable in this line of work. Many of the ladies on here know exactly what they are talking about and will always be honest with you so please feel free to ask anything. As for the SOCIAL ESCORT work !! sorry to burst ur bubble here but honestly it does'nt exist. I almost fell for this scam myself only  a few wks ago now then the night before I was about to part with over ?200 I found this helpful website, saved me in the nick of time too. From what I can gather most if not all of the websites and organisations out there offering social escorting work are all scams and fake, please, please dont join any of them, you'll lose money i'm sure u cant afford to waste. If your serious about getting into working as an escort then you should understand it is all about sex but just think carefully about it before going ahead. Some women can just turn off and become someone else, others are driven purely by money and greed etc, it's a very tough line of work. I have been escorting now on and off for about 5 years and i've also done reception work in a couple of private houses so i've seen much go on and how some women running these places can try to control you. You can of course work independently as an escort but believe me with the current climant being the way it is right now there is sooooo much competition out there now you'll be fighting for your life against women charging silly amounts and those working without using protection.

I hope you find this advice helpful and this site will be able to get you all the help and advice you could ever need.

Good luck with everything, stay safe and well J x

It's probably worth saying that trying to compete on price is - at best - risky, because there is always going to be someone cheaper out there. Thinking that you've only been chosen because you were the cheapest cannot leave a very pleasant feeling either.

Like with most other things, there are more than one market out there and not everyone will be looking for the cheapest bareback sex they can find.

XW5's comment above maybe right, however I seriously doubt it somehow, there are some decent clients out there looking for safe, discrete services but lets be honest about this shall we men are men at the end of the day.

Make of it what you will, my advice is open, honest and all above board, I'm not about to sit here on this site and see women glarmourising this industry when in reality it is what it is...................... it'll never be legalised and society as a whole will never ever accept it.

What is it that you want to say?

You think xw5 is probably wrong in his assertion that not everyone is looking for the cheapest bareback sex they can find.

You think "there are some decent clients out there looking for safe, discrete services".

Then there's the "men are men" comment. In this context I suppose that something about men thinking with their pricks? Is the point to tie together the contradictory statements above by saying that some men go out looking for safe discreet services, but if presented with an offer of ?20 bareback their manliness takes over and demands that they blow their load with no thought for the consequences?

Please tell me who on here glamourises this job. We talk about catching STIs, the horrors of condoms breaking, timewasters, no shows, hagglers, unscrupulous agencies and webmasters, not to mention the fear of our loved ones finding out what we do when we don't want them to. Which parts of the above are glamorous?

Prostitution is actually legal in this country, so not sure what you don't think will be legalised. It's the off-shoots like brothels, brothel-keeping, soliciting on the streets etc., and the running of agencies that are illegal. Selling sex itself is legal.

Could you please post links to the statements where we 'glarmourise' our job? I must have missed something.
 
I've recently posted about being assaulted and robbed (an isolated event, hopefully and certainly a first for me), but I also earn an extremely good living through my work and operate entirely within the law. Please expand  on your final sentence ???.

Hello to all of you out there that I obviously have offended by my recent comments here. I am sincerely SORRY. When I say GLAMOURISING THIS INDUSTRY I'm merely talking about those ladies out there banging on about it been a widely accepted career choice, one that you still seem to think society as a whole will one day learn to accept. I know some women out there do make a good living from it and you seem to forget that I am also in this industry to some degree aswell, I may not have been doing it as long as some of you but I do have a good sensible head on my shoulders. I have found this site to be very useful in many ways and most women on here do seem to geniunely want to helps others and give really good advice, however some of you do tend to jump on your high horses a lot of the time and talk in riddles instead of plain english. This of course does'nt help when newbie are seriously looking for help and advice. I know you guys have been very active memebers on this website for some time now which is a good thing. Just spare a thought for those of us that need to lean on you for things we dont know at times, thats all i'm saying.

Sorry again for offending anyone, that seriously is not my intention.

Dont worry Justme. :)  I dont know if you are aware but XW5 is a bloke who used to be very involved, and still is?, with advising gay and transgender escorts. He is a very knowledgable sorta fellow and has no agenda.

I realise you've apologised, but you've pissed me off.  You clearly said:
I'm not about to sit here on this site and see women glarmourising this industry......

....which clearly implies you meant women (inc. XW5) on this site and in particular in this thread. And also saying:
my advice is open, honest and all above board.....
also implies that our advice isn't. In this same thread I told the OP not to do this job if she doesn't think she can do it. Is your advice better than mine, or XW5, a bloke who's been around in this industry for years?

You were personalising your post, you weren't talking generally and yes, I do take offence to it.
Yes, I have been here since the beginning and yes, I offer advice when asked. But just because I do, it doesn't mean I can't have an opinion too. This isn't a fluffy job where the sex is always great and the men are always 6ft plus hunks. In no way, shape or form do I glamourise the industry and at no point on this forum  have I said that this job will ever be socially accepted, because I personally don't think it will be. If the Bible is to be believed prostitution is as old as Jesus, but we're no further forward to ever being accepted. Sex, and the selling of it, will always be sordid to people. But so what if women make careers out of it? How does that coincide with us thinking that it's socially acceptable?

This job does have its perks. It's not all doom and gloom. And I will tell the truth about it, the good bits and the bad bits.
