MadJester 229 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 Just curious but I would think that if I met an Sp I trusted and wanted to see on a regular basis what the opinion would be on a reverse tab? Say I pay for a few sessions beforehand and when it comes too the meeting saves the discomfort of paying. This would not be a license to show up whenever . Regular scheduling would apply. The downside being some form of paperwork would have to be maintained. Are there some people who do this already? Of course before each visit the client would have to declare wether this would be a cash or tab visit to keep from any misunderstandings. Or is this just weird and unwelcome as an idea? My curious mind is just throwing the proverbial shit at the wall here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Meg O'Ryan 266444 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 Perhaps you could elaborate on your reason for wanting a "tab". Why not pay as you go? If there is a benefit for you to pay in advance, I am sure that most ladies would make this an option. Just curious as to why you would want to proceed in this fashion :) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadJester 229 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 Smply put as a newbie I would think the exchange portion might detract from the gf portion of the gfe... Just a thought, curiosity. Clearly the exchange would help in reminding the client this is still a business first. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LookingForFun666 230 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 Don't bother with having to keep track. Keep it simple and straight forward. Pay as you go. That way there is no potential for misunderstanding. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billybob 20128 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 I would be very surprised if any of the ladies would go for this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Meg O'Ryan 266444 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 For those who don't like the actual exchange: put it in an envelope, upon arrival excuse yourself to the rest room and leave it on the counter. The lady can then go and retrieve the donation as she freshens up. I do this with a few guests :) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roamingguy 300292 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 Well for me being an outcall type of guy, normally I put the donation in an envelope in a gift bag along with a gift. With an incall a bit different, having to be discrete, I don't like carrying a gift bag through a hotel, or condo, or to a house, don't want to arouse suspicions. If the worry is losing the gf aspect of the encounter because of the monetary transaction, just consider you are giving the lady a gift...and what bf doesn't like to give his gf a gift Just a thought RG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 To be honest, I really don't have an issue with just putting an envelope down somewhere after I arrive... just make sure the lady you're visiting sees you do so :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadJester 229 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 Thanks just a newbie, as it doesn't destroy the illusion for the rest of you I'm sure when I "consummate" this hobby for myself I will be fine. But hey, I created a little bit of discourse that in itself can only be positive! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gia Wren Marlowe 67985 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) I've heard of escorts offering a prepay option, actually, but I believe the dates are worked out at the original time of payment (ie. - every Monday of May), and that it's fairly short term. I've never heard of a running tab, that does sound like a bit of a hassle. Edited May 4, 2012 by Gia Wren Marlowe typo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
April Dawn 12207 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 I have a few clients who pay up front for multiple sessions. They trust me and I actually really prefer it. Posted via Mobile Device 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadJester 229 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 So I'm not crazy, most businesses prefer a cash upfront approach. If I trust my "contractor" why not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cat 262460 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 The arrangement is referred to in our industry as a retainer. I actually prefer retainers for a myriad of reasons. It does require trust on both parts but it is beneficial for both parties as well. It allows me to budget myself, gives my guests an elegant incentive and we are both happy playmates! For those new to the retainer system, I start with 4 sessions. The envelope needs to be in by the 15th of the month and we determine when they would like to schedule. Some guests come to visit quarterly, some once a month, some every two weeks and others are weekly. I prefer to have the requested dates on the envelope but if they can't plan that far ahead then they can book once their schedule allows. Retainer guests always get preferred booking in the event I have two requests. We also develop a closer emotional relationship which enhances the physical aspects of the arrangement. These are the guests I chose to socialize with when time allows and travel with as well when the opportunity arises. I have retainer guests that have been with me since I arrived in Canada and I would walk on broken glass if they needed me to because they have proven themselves worthy of my loyalty by consistently contributing to my life. Their wish is my command... cat 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My curious mind is just throwing the proverbial shit at the wall here. I do this with a few trusted gentlemen I have known for an extended period of time. It works very well and I never had any problems with it. We keep track of everything via email so there are no needs for 'paper' records. We also take care of the financial transaction(s) via e-mail transfer so money is never exchanged when we are together. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cowboy kenny 50799 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 The scenario your are suggesting is commonly referred to as a retainer. Retainer arrangements require a great amount of trust for both parties involved, and in the end can sometimes be more troublesome than the awkwardness you are trying to avoid by paying as you go. My best advice to you is to not make a big deal of it, just leave the envelop out for your guest. She'll know what it's for and if she's a pro she'll be discrete about collecting it, especially if you let her know that's something you want as part of your encounter.

SamanthaEvans 166767 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 I also do this with gentlemen I've seen a few times and who want to plan ahead. I would be reluctant to begin a retainer contract with someone I don't know, though. Once we've gotten to know each other and are sure of compatibility and trust, it's very easy for both of us. I also prefer the e-mail money transfer and setting dates by e-mail. If you want to enter into a retainer contract, be sure that you're both very clear about things like cancellations, refunds or credits for future dates and how you'll be in contact to re-confirm the meetings.

piano8950 32577 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 Not for the fantasy, but because I prefer prepaying for almost everything I do, I'd be interested in this option. (I had a bad experience with credit cards a few years ago and vowed to never hold debt, and preferably pay everything in advance). Its more of a convinience and a peace of mind.

Athos 108589 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 I see the reverse tab as creating potential problems. I could see the client getting irked if he calls up, having prepaid, but his preferred time isn't available. I can also see the lady feeling some discomfort about trying to meet timing requests, even when it might not be convenient. Also, you are bound to having to see the lady. I realize you would only do this after you had seen someone a number of times and were certain of your intention to see them repeatedly. I certainly wouldn't recommend it with someone you've only seen once or twice. But feelings do change, and you may want to see someone else, but have to see this lady three more times because you've prepaid, before you try someone new. Don't worry about the money. I don't think I ever have even talked about the money. You walk in, take the envelope out, put it down on a table saying "I'll just leave this here for you". This is over and done with in the first 30 seconds while coats are being hung up, etc., etc.. The ladies are professionals. They're not going to count it out in front of you. In fact, in most instances the envelope stays right where you leave it. Let's face it, if you feel comfortable enough with a lady to want to prepay for multiple sessions, then putting an envelope down on a table is not going to kill the mood. I'm not at all adverse to prepaying via e-mail for an encounter once time has been established, but prepaying multiple encounters, dates unknown, seems needlessly complicated. Just my thoughts.

backrubman 64800 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 I think retainer arrangements are great for those that are comfortable with them. That said, pay as you go is my way to go and that said I do get the point and don't like handling cash. My crazy, insane, nutty policy (which has yet to let me down) is I'm going to pay in full if I haven't cancelled 72 hours prior to a confirmed appointment so at any point within that 72 hour window it's just too convenient to e-mail Interac the funds and take paying out of the picture. I find this a far better way indeed than handling cash. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hector17 9215 Report post Posted May 4, 2012 Interesting this has come up, because I have done it a couple of times in specific instances where I paid for appointments in advance with US $ (after giving her the choice) because a trip was in the planning by her, and I had extra USD lying around from past trips. She had no objections at all...seemed to like it. I did, however, book a date and time on my way out. From reading the responses, it seems to depend on your relationship with the provider...The next week seemed to be "free" and that added a little jazz.
