So you threaten to ruin the lives of clients who flake on you? Hmm… Seems a bit heavy handed. 

In most careers you make more with experience.
But when it comes to escorting I'd probably pay more for a 21 year old than I would a 36 year old escort.
( I mean ...personally, I wouldn't even consider hiring someone that old).
So this particular career has a different valuation curve than others do.

you’re really overthinking this.  
an abundance of caution is always a good idea when meeting someone new, but hotel staff in general, have seen just about everything and you are very unlikely to have a problem with that.  The hotel staff won’t give anyone a second look unless they somehow appear to be entirely out-of-place or some other bizarre behavior.
If I’m meeting someone new at hotel, I always meet them in the lobby or preferably in the bar in full view of hotel staff.  There are two reasons.  First, I want to make sure everything is ok with the provider - meaning he looks his pics, he’s not on drugs or anything else that may cause me to decline the appointment.  If I decline the appointment for any reason at that point, I’d pay half the fee for my decision to cancel without receiving any services.  Second - I want the hotel staff to see me with this person in public.  This creates a situation where the provider knows he has been seen with me & it lessens the probability anything bad could happen.  It’s still possible, but less likely. It’s all about your personal safety.
Noise from hotel rooms is common - kids screaming, TVs very loud, parties in rooms, etc.  Hotel staff will intervene only when a guest complains and then only if it’s at night when people are trying to sleep.  They call the room first and usually politely ask you to curtail the noise - they do not call police as a first step & would only do that in an ongoing egregious situation when you refuse to comply.  The chances of police at your door are just about zero.
If this is your first time, then of course there will be anxiety and some fear of the unknown. Just remember your personal safety comes first always and prioritize that, not what the hotel staff might think.  They do not care.
 
 

They can which actually hurts providers. I'm sure the majority of game players are people without accounts on there. They already have an option on there for providers to show or hide their phone number to everyone. But I think they could easily have an option for them to show their number to either everyone, only members, or only premium members.

Correct. Will cost $19.95 to become premium again. I see no option for a discount for multiple months either, which is a bit strange.

It's showing it's back to $9.95 a month for a premium membership for me with $49.95 for six months or $99.95 for a year.

I agree caution is advised. Try hanging out with the finance bros of NYC. They love to brag about hiring and compare notes so that’s one situation where it adds to one’s social status.
On the other hand, in my main social circle of middle aged professionals, they are very sex positive and yet… there’s an undercurrent of judgement about promiscuity. Sex is good. Too much sex is a sign of a character flaw it seems. It’s bizarre and contradictory, but then people are complicated.

This is an interesting thread. My two cents:
I haven't had any experiences that made my personal safety feel threatened. However, I am fairly new to all this and consequently had experiences that were not that great. Mostly dismissive, unprofessional and dissatisfying.
I booked this mature gentleman in NYC for an hour, and his place was filthy and in disarray.  He was friendly and personable, but a few minutes into our appointment, in come these two guys, visitors of him, he explained, that needed to pass by us to the bedroom where they were staying. Of course, major mood killer. Attempting to get back to business, a few more minutes later I heard them passing again "because they needed the bathroom". I decided to stop, pay and leave. I gave him a bad review, paying close attention to my adjectives and adverbs, attempting at describing the situation as objectively as possible. A few days later, his add disappeared. Then he came back to both websites for escorts and masseurs with a different name.
The other one was one of those "donation up front" (as I said, I still consider myself in the learning curve of this) for a 90-minute massage. It was in Columbus, OH. His "massage" setup look more like he was going to perform an illegal abortion, a mattress on the floor and all the furniture covered. I was received with the Steven Wilkos Show blasting on the TV, and his massage materials consisted of some 99 cents store cream. He just rubbed my lower back for about 15 minutes, and here's the worst part. I turned to tell him that my body has other parts than my lower back, and when I turned to talk to him, I saw a camera on the wall, pointing directly at me. Needless to say, my internal reaction was the expected WTF, but my survival instincts told me to slowly, politely and calmly end the session. I did, and we had a friendly departure. Of course, I gave him a bad review, and he replied only to the part of my review that "it was me who ended the session early". At least he didn't accuse me of lying about everything else.
Fool me once, shame on you. Lessons learned. In fact, I wish I discovered this site before.

It’s all transactional…. until you actually fall in Love (the real kind) and do things just because….  

It’s too bad more people don’t know about What3Words. That app solves these problems. I use it for locations that Google Maps can’t seem to find, but it’s also perfect for sending the location of a Marriott that has two other Marriotts next to it. 

Sorry but it’s mostly true. Congress could have fixed it by now, that’s true also! But definitely the problem is cyclical because of the Reagan era firings. I’m not arguing that he should or shouldn’t have done that. The strike was illegal and would have affected the country terribly. 
I attempted to become a controller in the early 90s. I even had a close friend who worked as a controller at a center (not airport) who was helping me. It was a no-go.  Nearly the entire lot of them were hired all at once after the mass firing. There was no more hiring for quite a few years (the odd replacements that were done were sourced from controllers who were ex-military with experience).

Is this true? I’ve never had a problem using a burner number (that I’m aware of). I’ve tested burner numbers by using them to call and text my real number, and I don’t see how they could be identified as such. I’d appreciate more on this, if anyone knows. 

Not a problem with the Burner app for iPhone. Search for much discussion elsewhere here on the forum.

His profile says satisfaction is guaranteed. Maybe he was just having an off day. The easy way out is to ask him to stand by that guarantee. If he gives the money back, agree to rescind the review. Win-win. He keeps his reputation and you don’t have to put up with the threats nor pay for an encounter which didn’t satisfy. 

he is gorgeous and we have not met....but I called his number and as I did so, my phone suddenly showed I had blocked it previously. OMG. I didnt realize because of his new hair perm, that this is the guy who two months ago I told him I would think about hiring him but was undecided due to his 400 price. I knew I wouldnt but I had thought not to tell him to fuck off when i was really hoping to say fuck me. 
anyhow after that for over two hours my phone never stopped. He was reported due to evidence I gave rent men that he took my number and posted it on his twitter account having every visible hustler who follows him report me. After a couple of hours twitter removed it cuz he obviously violated their community standards (standard on twitter???? c'mon). 
So he's a creep gentlemen. 

If you re-read my post you may see I was not comparing air travel to climate change, I was noting the similarity of the "sky is falling" and "climate-change" denial attitude.
This has been "engaging," but I'm done with it.
"Talk amongst yourselves."    🙂

Some idea of the providers personality in the ad copy. Some people just write some really basic stuff. Others are witty or even comical.
Up to date pics preferably with full body shots and a mix of candid and professional pics. I know some guys use only professional shots where they are all ripped and glistening. It’s not impossible but that look isn’t easy to sustain year round. So having candid shots can give you an idea of how they appear in non-contest shape or every day look.
That they include their intos. I’ve seen ads with none at all or very little. Personally if they list kissing, bear, and exclude pnp… I’m more prone to give strong consideration to that person.

I agree caution is advised. Try hanging out with the finance bros of NYC. They love to brag about hiring and compare notes so that’s one situation where it adds to one’s social status.
