Hi all. It seems to be increasingly common to get asked.if we are on whatsapp. By the 30 to 39 yr age group. What does everybody else do?

It would mean upgrading my mobile to a more up to date model. I get enough work without this so is it really worth the added expense??

I need to pay a photographer as it is so that odds on will be £200 this year. Enough to fork out as I prefer low volume.I

Cheers in advance.

Although my work phone has the ability to accept the app, I will not have WhatsApp on my advertised number. I do have it on a dedicated WA webcam phone, only for use for paid WhatsApp sessions.

My experience is that many who ask for WA regards an Escort booking simply want the ability to share photos without cost. There Also seems to be a belief that use of WA somehow makes a person more credible. I don't want people randomly video calling, and when I am in a paid WA session don't want alerts coming through.

Also I want my work phone to only have the absolute minimum apps, so I can answer enquiries as quickly as possible without having to open things up or get in the way of answering phone calls (I find it's difficult to pick up phone calls she  I have other apps open).

One of the benefits of using whatsapp is if you are on a PAYG it won’t cost just connect to Wi-Fi

No, that isn't the reason. I'm fifty, the vast majority of my clients are of youngish working age because of my location, and I can count the number of times I've been asked on one hand. Maybe it's just popular where you are?

I'm happy to accept enquiries via Whatsapp and I don't think it brings many more TW than regular texting. I do get sent unsolicited dick pics with depressing regularity but as I have my settings on "don't automatically download media" I just reply with "It's £5 if you want me to download your pic, £20 if you'd like my opinion and a rating out of 10. How would you like to pay?"

(Nobody ever has, and I expect they never will, but I adopted this after getting into Onlyfans - dick ratings are a big moneyspinner there.)

The main benefit to me of having whatsapp open is I can use it to communicate with guys who are in town on business and don't have a UK number. So I don't get charged for international calls/texts with them.

Prob hoping to see that you have a face pic on watsapp …..

I show my face these days lol.

I actually had one genuine guy via WhatsApp yesterday. He said he didn’t want the text or call showing on his bill. He actually showed and was really nice. Having said that l always only look at WhatsApp last.

This is good hahah I am using this.

Whatsapp I use it so I can have the client send me a screengrab of my cab details booking before I even get ready. You can get some idiots but most times good clients also message via whatsapp plus those international numbers irish numbers and american numbers Whatsapp is handy to communicate.
