Does anyone else find they get bombarded with early texts and calls when they display their mobile number and available green light before 10am.
I am now starting to display from after 11am in the hope it reduces more timewasters.
I also read here than telling them to call back later also gets rid !

TW's texts:

"Where are you?"
"How much?"
"do you take credit cards/bank transfer?"
"Hi hun"
"My old provider left town and I'm looking for a new one I can see on a regular basis"
"Is that you in the pictures?"
"I saw your number on the internet, what services do you offer?'
"I was refered to you by a friend"

And the list goes on. ???

"Subtle" and "crafty" are not qualities that define your average TW sending the same text to 30 women. I did have some stranger last year on the phone asking me for a "muslim marriage" before I gave him a massage (something about his religion not being able to touch a women who was not his wife). He told me "not to worry" because we would get a divorce after the massage. That was pretty crafty. Rumour is he's still going around asking. Poor guy.

One type that can take a little longer to detect are those that sort of string you along. This is especially via email. Like, they'll write saying they're going to be in your area in 2-3 months' time for example, then write once or twice a week telling you a bit about themselves or what they're looking for in the booking, or how beautiful you are. I cut them off now by just replying politely but firmly, telling them to get in touch nearer the time.

And those too. They will email you every week for two months to say "hello", send pictures of them and let you know how excited they are by meeting you then 2 days before the appointment "something will happen" where they need to cancel. Your approach to them is the smartest (takes note).

The easiest way for me to spot a timewaster is alway a man that texts very vague or one worded messages. Ok. Hi. Etc and I just stop replying. 90 percent of the time if they’re genuine clients when they see I stopped replying to one worded answers they will soon change up and try to put a bit of more effort into booking me.

Timewasters always tend to ask questions that are already answered in your ad. Prices, services etc which I have clearly laid out in my ad what I do and what I don’t and for how much. I do feel this is a timewasting tactic and I believe some men actually get off on you telling them over the phone that you do anal etc. So when they ask about services now I just say my likes and dislikes are all listed on my page you should check it out.

I also tend not to give much away when TWs ask questions about services. I just say 'yes I do full gfe', or if they ask about particular services I just say 'yes that's fine'.

Ring you up then ask you to text the postcode
Never hear back off them
I only give a different postcode as I do not want cranks and weirdos finding my road and trying to suss out which flats mine , you don’t know if you come out of your place one day and the dickheads be checking you out parked up somewhere .

Would you be suspicious if you got a long ultra flattering email and wanting to book with you
You request  asked for their mobile number they dont reply?

Not at all..
After all, they go to the trouble of inserting our names into the template spam they have sent to everyone else that day - if we are lucky  ::) we must be the special ones!

They never give out their phone number.
 It ruins their chances of multiple email follow-ups (type with right hand, wank furiously with left) as you would suss them straightaway..

Yes I have noticed this, usually guys still in bed just looking for a free wank chat.
I still display it early for any genuine guys who may want to make a note of it then call at a reasonable time then leave my phone on silent until a time I'm happy to take calls. That way the idiots can't bother you.

At the weekend and on bank Holidays, these are often the 'still up from the night before' crew, still very much under the influence ( and have every intention to remain that way) looking for an Outcall direct to their bed  :-\
I' m an early riser and screen even harder at these times.

Oh yes 6am are you available now.

Perhaps someone is, or they are just chancing their arm.

Sometimes I have been up able to answer the call, but not 'ready'. Also had webcam requests at that time, definitely not set up for that but not timewaster was an actual customer.
