I have noticed a HUGE increase in timewasters, Im going to start seeing who arrives first, Im against it but unless they are regulars I just cannot afford to keep reserving bookings for no shows, they are literally one after the other

Yes, it's SHOCKING. My friend had three in a row the other day!!

I even got two to phone me back (which they did) and they were still no shows.

I'm at a complete loss tbh. I wish I knew what the fuck is going on  :FF

Timewasters became "clever".
A few years ago they wouldn't book you, they just texted some rubbish.
Now they book, pretend to be genuine (in most cases I can feel it's not) and then they text you shit.

I had a no show and two cancellations yesterday after having booked what looked like a good afternoon. I ended up too frustrated. I have a pinched nerve in my shoulder and decided to take the day off.

I'm trying to get the nerve up to double book. I think I'll do overlapping and back to back... If someone shows I'll text the overlapping guy and see if he'll wait. If not, oh well. At least he won't arrive and not get any answer on the phone.

As I see it I don't owe new clients a reserved booking they get "penciled in" my regulars get "penned in".
 I don't work by AW bookings only by the phone on the day so yes I would make it first come first serve. If they are let down by me there are another 112 escorts within a 5 mile radius of my postcode so with a bit of ringing around I'm sure they can find another WG quickly.
We know some punters book several girls for the same time slot so if they are let down they have a backup.
As I see it the many don't give a shit about wasting our time and think nothing of letting us down so why should I worry? I have my bills to pay and only the ones who actually turn up are going to pay me.
The only exception are my regulars as they take precedence over all new clients.

I have never been brave enough to double book. We escorts get blasted to bits from men for doing this and I understand their attitude to a point but only the girls who have experienced it and that will be all of us at some time or other, will know how it feels to be primped and perfumed, decked out in the sexiest kit and watching the clock for the moment he either rings the bell or phones to say he  has arrived.  Then nothing.

If I have a one hour booking at 2pm then someone wants 3pm and can not do any other time I still say no because the panic of being ready while Mr 3pm is waiting in the carpark and the worry that Mr 2pm is taking his time with his shoes and coat etc. We can not say to client one that client two is outside and waiting.

Oh far too much worry for me to go through that.
I get hardly any no show men because I do not waver from my rules of booking but once in a while one slips the net. I feel sorry for ladies who get several in one week!

Absolutely agree. I think it's unacceptable.

It's horrible when you have your time wasted, my worst one was with a client who sounded completely genuine, was located in Birmingham and wanted me to travel for a two hour outcall, all came across well, great feedback great on the phone, got ready made my way there to the apartment complex, rang and nothing, rang his phone and the door again and nothing. The journey cost me ?50.

I would never make a client feel that way, if a client books me for a certain time, he gets that time, I don't double book for regulars or anyone else I just think it's wrong, and if the client you fobbed off was to find out and give you negative feedback/review, you can't exactly defend it. Each to their own though!

I don't have any negative feedback and TBH it wouldn't bother me if did as long as it gave me a negative for double booking a new punter and not for the quality of my services I'd hold my hands up and say "guilty as charged".
I refuse advanced bookings preferring instead to book same day and short notice bookings and when I've done 3 bookings I've done for the day even if that's midday. My policy is first come first served and if you want a booking best to come early or you may be disappointed. I tell them straight I don't give new punters a guaranteed booking as I may be finished hours before the time they want to come. My mantra is "This is MY business and its always going to be run to suit me not the punter" and that philosophy has never let me down.

I personally wouldn't double book and let down a new client for a regular, because that regular could suddenley decide he doesn't want to see me anymore and that's money gone, and that new client I double booked and let down may well have been a genuine client who could become a regular.

The way I work is if someone books a slot it's theirs unless there is a genuine reason for me to cancel, if they waste my time, I block, blacklist and never book again. I don't give priority to anyone as they are all customers, the only "priority" I may give is extra time, which I have done many a time for regulars and it's been appreciated

It doesn't matter what anyone charges or where they are from.

What I HAVE noticed though is a significant number of TWs, much more than normal, so I have tightened up my screening and make them jump through more hoops to get to see me. This is relevant to all destinations


This was mentioned earlier too.  This is so true. It seems loads are looking for some free fix.
Agree.
I've had a few over the last 6 weeks asking for the same kind of thing, where they want an hour but don't have my full rate, I wondered if it's the same person playing about.

I've also upped my screening over a few weeks and it's definitely helped, those who really want to see you wont mind the "jumping through hoops" x

After nothing all week (though that was partly by choice as I was up to my eyeballs in my other job) today has been busy (by my meagre standards). I suspect the weekend will be quiet though...

It was busy today, no one cancelled. One guy even waited an hour for me because I decided to double book after all this hassle with timewasters.
