Thanks girls I thought as much I mean me pay to possibly get work it's not right she tried to justify it by saying if I worked for an agency they would take up to 30/40% of my earnings. I said I had not wish to work for an agency. Mainly because travel companion agencies don't really exist. I think they are just scammers. Thanks for the advice.

Scam, along with every other 'agency' that wants any money whatsoever from you before you have cash in your hand from a client.

There's a thread here with loads more examples of them, let me see if I can find it...

I have only had a quick look as I am on my way out, but look at it from a customer point of view for a minute:

Where are the staff so you can see who you want to book?
Where are the details/prices?

That alone screams scam.

If you sign up and they ask for many up front for ANY reason, no matter how legitimate sounding, you can kiss that money goodbye.

I'm afraid your posts were made at 2am and 7am UK time, so there wouldn't have been many members about. Please be patient and allow at least 24 hours for responses; nobody is being paid to answer any questions here, we all contribute because we want to help so we may need a little time.

If you sign up and they ask for many up front for ANY reason, no matter how legitimate sounding, you can kiss that money goodbye.

This. Also, there's a main site article here: http://www.saafe.info/ (hover over "Information for Escorts" and look for the "Scam Agencies" article) which outlines all the main types of agency-related scams that you need to look out for.

I know they're putting pressure on you to pay up, now - that's because, like every other 'agency' that wants money from you before you have cash in your hand from a client, they're a scam. You'll find other mentions of them in this thread.

See the non-existence of non-sexual escorting market if that's what they're telling you too.

Select Companions UK. Have a suspicion that this is a scam. Asks for general details, Age, Height, Interests.  Then asks for photos and will survey clients. Get a call a day or so later from "Ellie" saying that 5 clients are interested. Asks for ?249 paid into either a LloydsTSB account or Nationwide.  Payment to be made to jobstoday.  States rates will be ?120 for minimum of 3 hours per client cash in hand and travel expenses up to 30 miles..  Then an email with a link to "your page" on their website. Then nothing.....

Any site which asks for payment up front is a scam - the nuts and bolts are irrelevant. This one's been mentioned before, if memory serves - I believe they're one of the many 'but of course there's a market for straight male/social only escorts!' subgroup.

Hello everyone.  Can I first say how wonderful I felt when I accidently came across this site. I have been doing research into this industry and I am lost.
Can I be straight and honest.  I want to do companion escort  but without any sexual contact.  I enjoy speanding time with people and listening to people, solving problems, having a laugh and really creating a good atmosphere.I am aware it is important to have the man or woman feel very specia, this is my good points.  I am a very good listener and I have disclosure Scotland.  I am not sure where to start.  I live in Glasgow but must emphasise this would be a non-sexual companionship meetings, and need to feel I have went to a reputable company. .  Can you offer me any advice.  Does such worl exist.  I have a part time job worling in social services. and to be honest I would enjoy very much meeting either a man or woman for chats, theatre, meals etc.... I hope you can reassurre me, and point me in the right direction.  I livReagrds Pevonia

Don't fall for any of their lines 'pay upfront' ................ if they ask for this it is definitely a scam.
