Title: Smocci App
Post by: seachild on 14 February 2020, 01:50:50 pm
Hi all,

So Smocci has just been launched today in the UK and I was wondering if any of you already used it? It has been running in other places like Bangkok, Singapore, Manila and Hong Kong. The developers asked for my UDID so I can be able to download the app, as I am an iOS user and I am not sure if it is safe to give it out.

Thanks everyone x

From a piece about its initial launch: "Escorts can trial the app for free, with the first three bookings offered as inclusive. After those have been used up, they will be able to accept a maximum of one booking every three days without paying for a membership."

You've got a whole 10 minutes to confirm those bookings. Screening, what's that then?

Oh, and it turns out that you're expected to send a GPS location to the clients and it cost escorts $25 for one week in the unlikely event you get more than three bookings.

Given that there are barely any users, from either side, and - for original launch cities - clients were charged from $9.99 for three days’ access, going up to $99.99 for one year..

.. why would anyone use it?

Moved here, because while the OP may or may not be connected to it, it's the sort of clueless proposal that fits here.

Not least because it's very likely that how they manage the 'pay £££s to get another booking' is either..

.. what a court would call 'controlling prostitution for gain' or

.. open to fake bookings as a way to get you to pay up or

.. both.

Oh, and it turns out that unless clients pay this bunch, they can only make bookings of 2+ hours via this.
