Helping PSNI and visa versa

[Curvaceous Kate]

there can be many reasons a punter doesn't show, many be takes cold feet, looses courage, finds and doesn't feel comfortable in the location, entrance too visible and doesn't want to be spotted going in, meets someone who would recognise them going into. Many reasons. I have on one occasion arrived as directed to find that the property was in the main street of my local village, I had to walk on as I couldn't risk been seem going in. Sorry but it does happen!

And you never bothered to inform the sex worker you were not going in? Shame on you!

Why would a pimp want to report people that are giving him money? confused.com. Surely they can do that already if they want to?

Most genuine clients do not ring up sex workers to waste their time (I would hope?) For the majority of clients it would not have any impact on them. Plus if the number is being handed over it's because they were not seen, so it would have no impact on the person holding the number, unless they were ever in a raid and there at the time, which would be very unlikely.

But the genuine client is the criminal, not the one who didnt pay for sex.

I wasn't being serious Sandy, it was just me seeing what reaction it would get.

I only accept bookings 30 mins ahead so tw's don't waste too much of my time. The one I had earlier today tried to book me a good hour in advance and I told them that he would have to call me back. He then said he could be here in 30 mins. I think he was after my location going by the rest of the conversation. Anyway he booked an hour and was way too flexible, so I expecting him not to turn up and he didn't disappoint me.

I had another one previous to this who had decided he only wanted to pay £80. Said a story about his pay being late and he had to check it first, then calling back saying he only had £80 so would I take it. I said no and welcomed him back when he had the right money. Seriously for the sake of a tenner? For me the refusal was about respect.

I haven't taken much in the way of deposits recently, as I'm not seeing many newbies, so it's only when I'm in the mood to see someone new that I'm doing it.

This post was more about having time on my hands (Thank you Tony who ever you are) and interested to see how such a proposal would go down with the minions.

What have I got from it? I need to try and read through the whole thread before replying, as now I can see how important it is in relations to things being repeated or taken in the wrong way. I'm very guilty of not doing that.

Playing devil's advocate . . . . .

Cluck cluck!!! This Mother hen has plans for pastures new and is uber excited about the future and what it brings. Can't wait!!!!

you'll be back Mother hen that following Spring, the temptation of sexy great in bed Irishmen would be just too strong

I've had a great idea. I think in the North where it is illegal to buy sex the PSNI should set up a website where sex workers can pass on phone details of all the time wasters, no shows and walk and goes. These people have not purchased sex, so they can not be arrested, but it would be good for them to have a record of repeat offenders and then if they are ever caught in the act they have the proof that they knew what they were doing and can be convicted.

It might make clients (or not as the case may be) think twice before wasting people's time and playing silly buggers.

What do you think? Good idea?

Terrible idea. PSNI is a front line service not a ugly mugs scheme for escorts.

I ask for deposits off guys who have wasted my time before, I won't give a timewaster a 2nd chance without part payment up front. I have given timewasters 2nd chances in the past only to have them waste my time again. I find asking for deposits a very effective method to stop them wasting my time further.

As for the PSNI to keep numbers, it's not going to happen. The PSNI have enough crime to test their resources as it is. I suspect that there would be a public outcry if they used the public purse & their manpower to create such a database.

how you know its the same guy again that wasted your time before, a lot change their mobile number every months

You don't know me gillyland. Not one bit

Evidently in these cases it would be one that has not changed their number. You would be surprised how many think that giving it a few weeks will mean you have no idea who they are. I have numbers in my phone over a year old. I leave little notes by the number so if I am in a devilish mood I can directly tell them that they have wasted my time before and why should I see them now? They are like, no that wasn't me? So I ask them how many people use their phone and they may say, 'It's a work hone' and I will ask them why on earth they would use a work phone to book a sex worker?

Whichever way it goes, I don't see them or they pay up a deposit.

People are strange, when you're a stranger.

Sorry but that did make me laugh. I'm retiring next Spring! I rarely see new people any more, but I'm finding that when I do answer the phone to numbers I don't know more often than not they are not real clients at all. I hear so much about the 3 types of people I quoted in the first post and it is getting worse and worse. Why is this problem getting worse? Why do these people think it is okay to do so? I don't bother with reviews any more so rarely get them, so can't see why a pimp would target me or another sex worker for that matter. I seriously feel that the people making these daft calls just have nothing better to do with themselves. They need a kick up the bum, or zapping!!! Or maybe water sprayed, who knows.

To say that it's a fact of life for sex workers, is actually just shrugging your shoulders and saying 'deal with it'. We are so unprotected it's ridiculous. They only get away with it because we don't have any recall and if you guys think we might keep numbers you get all fidgety and defensive.

It's soooooo childish!!!! I know men never grow up but it's akin to pressing someone's door bell and running off. Then people double book and you guys get upset. (see above post)

I'm also a bit concerned that people are still replying to the OP like I meant it after I explained my thoughts on the PSNI and their efficiency. The zapper gun idea was more close to what I would really like. I'd love to hear a little yelp on the other side of the phone when a repeat offender tries to book me again. hehe

yes i am saying "just deal with it"
time wasters exist in all aspects of business, window shoppers, women who try on 20 pairs of shoes and dont buy, taxis who dont turn up late, customers who tun up late or no shows at hairdressers, hell even patients seeing doctors with colds

you are not alone!
