i would like to add in the question of how much trust we can put in these trusted reviewers!
i have had a couple of experiences where i seen escorts that were highly praised by trusted reviewers and turn out they were not up to the standards they were claiming
yes i know people have different tastes etc and escorts have the right to withdraw their services
but i felt like a fool for putting my trust in some tr that got 3 references!!!!
IMO at same time review is very good to help escort business also become a big problem.
It's not only about trusted reviews, as I do believe they are more careful to make no mistakes because they make part of the forum and the most don't want to damage they reputation. I said the "most" but I'm sure some abuse they badges, what IMO is so disrespectful to the escorts.
Now I ask, when an escort have problem with any reviewer, how can she prove that? I saw girls complaining about get positives or negatives reviews that don't belong to them or they never been with that client and the site can do nothing about because they need prove, what I don't disagree but make things really hard to the escorts either.
Have plenty of genuine escorts working and doing the best to build a good reputation and because of some bad ones that fake reviews and play with the system in their favor, the honest ones sometimes pay the price.
I do believe to send review the criteria should be more difficult, as anyone can try to damage your reputation for any reason so easily here or even to make they reputation better based in lies (fake reviews), or even take advantage for being a reviewer from the escorts, everything so wrong.
Haha people seriously do that? Christ, do they keep a pen & notepad on the bedside table too?!
But nah, that a TR would actually use his "status" for his own gain is fucking pathetic. Agree with most of your criteria - If anything, TRs should be more open to scrutiny than anyone.
Just to add a small point which i think would be a good idea for this site and would sidestep the issue raised in this thread. If registered members were able to say, Add certain reviewers to their own personal list it'd be very useful. This could maybe show up as a red badge next to his name when you're looking at a certain lady's reviews. Nobody would know whose (if any) favourite list you're on so it wouldnt be open to abuse.
It'd also be useful for people who exclusively "punt" in just one county, as after a while you begin recognising the same reviewers and know who to trust, or who has similar tastes.
Just a thought.
Well, Nick, here are my real thoughts on the situation. I prefer PM bookings, I knw where I am and I like to plan my day. However, I hate pressure. Every client gets the same service, it doesnt matter if they are TR's or not, but the point is, some of the TR's think it does. So my thought is that TR's should undertake to review anonymously. How can they leave a subjective review unless it was anonymous? For example, if I worked for Trip Advisor, and I announced that at the booking time in the hotel I was reviewing, would I get the average experience or the 'a la carte'? Who knows? Well, we would actually if reviewers kept their ID to themselves.
I am probably going to be hated for these posts but I think it is time someone spoke up.

I don't have much to contribute here but I often wonder why someone would go to the bother of becoming a trusted reviewer in the first place. There isn't much to be gained by it for the trusted reviewer, is there ? Maybe I've missed something but it seems to me that there isn't really anything tangible in it for TR's.
So what does that leave ? Perhaps it's seen nearly as a police badge that TR's think they can use to extract additional services and/or lower rates on threat of a bad review which could potentially be damaging to a girls business.
If I were Taoiseach I'd bring in a 2 point plan whereby punters are also given a rating by the girls and scrap this trusted reviewer nonsense. Such a system would ensure both sides of a transaction are behaving themselves and peoples reputations as escorts AND as punters are kept up to date instead of awarding a badge on the strength of a few good refs from girls and then you're allowed to keep the badge forever.
I have read this thread with great interest as I have all the other similar threads that have been created on this subject but until as Lucy stated ladies start to speak up and report these guys, name and shame even all that is said here is just a waste of time.. I commend Lucy as I think she is the first escort to start one of these threads but I do hope that
1. She takes the next step and actually report the abusers she has come across and that
2. Other ladies show equal support and also start reporting these abusers.
I started a thread a year ago where a 75% majority of clients agreed the individual was not thrustworthy in their eyes yet he still has a badge so clients say-so means nothing here..
