  1. It's kinda irrelevant. It doesn't go both ways. We're the ones paying, not you. This is why there's all the debates about putting down deposits, and sending 10, 15, 25% through etransfer up front. Let's not kid ourselves into thinking there's equal value in a client's no-show versus a client getting ghosted after getting an appointment booked, putting a deposit down, then not getting any word back.... It's not like the SP lost some funds with a no-show, how often does it happen that you lose a client that can't reschedule because you can't make room for them because you are booked solid with back to back clients all day? Its' not exactly a crappy problem to have to be too busy. Therefore I'd wager it never happens that you can't shuffle clients around to accommodate certain people only being available at certain times, you can't count "lost income" when it never existed in the first place. There's no loss from having a no-show, the 'potential' for the funds you'd collect only happens upon arrival. Unless you collect online upfront. But that's just free money for zero services rendered, up to that point. Since you were not going to have someone booked at that time in the first place, there's no loss on your part in comparison to the person paying you, a client that does show up. When you book a dentist's appointment, they charge you a fee for not showing up, this is because they have all rooms booked solid, 9 to 5 each day. That's not the case here. If it were you STILL don't lose funds, you simply replace the person who cancels with your next person in line if you're that busy. But you're not bumping someone else off to accommodate another client, then they don't cancel, buit just don't show up, leaving you hanging. That's not happening, so again, you're not 'losing' funds because of the 'potential' client you would have at any given time. Now imagine the reverse of this, like that Adam mentioned "the way you say 20 minutes early or don't bother showing up seems extreme." --- I've had this happen a few times as an excuse to cancel on me where I book 24 hours in advance, the last text I get is that I'll get the address upon arrival. Out of common courtesy, I text 2 hours before, asking if everything still a go, She texts back saying "well, you never texted me early enough to confirm, so I had to cancel your appointment. 2 hours isn't early enough? What about all these ads saying to "book in advance, no last minute bookings, please"? Seems like just. away to keep that up-front-money, double book and cancel the one that was convinced to pay up front. Another scenario that's happened far too often -- I text 2 hours before, asking if everything still a go, you know, being nice and respectful, and jut checking in ti make sure nothing's up up on her end. no response, then an hour before the scheduled appointment, still nothing, I'm a half hour drive from the hotel she mentions she's at, so in case I get a last minute green light, I take off, I don't want to arrive late, so a half hour before the appointment I start to drive out, fingers-crossed, I make my way in. I text at this time too, "are we still a go?" - I arrive still and still no response, I don't want to come off as stalker-y, I've done three texts now, is this too much? At the exact time I'm supposed to have my appointment, I mentioned I've arrived and parked. I have no room number of course. and no green light. but I never hear from them again.... and I don't text after the appointment time has started.... that cash deposit she demanded up front 24 hours before---gone..... and this has happened a few times, each time from a reputable, and well-reviewed SP. So yes, time is money --- but we both put in the time, and only one of us pays the money. So.... ladies, you hold all the cards.
  2. You'd think the option would be there to still delete your account; your texts in these chats/forums would remain of course, but clicking on your title would go no where, and you wouldn't be able to get DM'ed (notified) anymore, you know, like ALL other chat forums. Very simple. 🤪
  3. she's in moncton and halifax at the same time, and no website? yeah.... too good to be true.
  4. Not providing an address to anybody until you see them approaching the home sounds totally reasonable. I wish you luck in finding a new place. Moving sucks. Its sooo much work.
  5. If her photos don't look like her and the services she advertises to provide are not actually offered, then yes, a 'human' posted this ad, but if everything else about it is false... then... it's not 'real'. Yes of course she's "real", a person posted this, not a bot or AI-generated. But it's still fake, because the AD is fake, fake photos, fake list of services offered, therefore, FAKE.
  6. hahah, so--- she's NOT real.
  7. Problem is, "some" providers take the money up front (as per normal) and decide 5 min later to deny services..... what then? 🤨 The point some are making is that it can be very arbitrary, and one-sided. Sure the reasons may be totally valid, but they may be totally bogus, made-up too, either way, the person who paid, is left sitting there, empty-handed. Try seeing it from our point-of-view, and you can see how it can be potentially unfair. Yes, of course, you have the "right to refuse service", sure, OK, but after the provider paid up front? No difference to you, I suppose, you got paid for "your time". There's a big difference between the customer paying and having a couple hours of pleasure, versus just sitting there naked and confused, no action, all of a sudden - refused the service agreed upon -- the difference is... the total opposite of what the guy came over to do.... and then essentially forced to leave. Just sayin'. Though the risks from the customers may be purely financial ones, there's a risk from the hobbyists' side too. Usually that door opens and the gamble is that the provider looks nothing like the photos, that happens A LOT, we just turn around and leave, problem solved (unless you paid a deposit online in advance). But when we lay there comfortable and then realize our money is taken and nothing is happening, well -- that's a different story. This happens a lot more than providers realize.
  8. yeah, seen that before, pure loneliness, plain and simple. Really craving attention.
  9. It's understandable, there's about 9 Brooklyns on LL and Lyla.
  10. The consensus is - if they're asian, and on LL, they DO exist, but will look NOTHING like their pictures, and their services are very limited.
  11. Kayla, Jessica, Kylie, were (IMO), mind-blowing.
  12. Not a big fan of Jasmine's either, had a less-than-thrilling experience.
  13. good to see not all of LL's ads are bogus.
