Damn. Anyone here with experience meeting him? Must be a way to still hire him

Anyone know what happened to this guy?

Interesting. So where do you meet?

Recommendations?

From recent experience, I’m now convinced that in London at least this has become the NORM with providers - they expect and insist on providing an Uber. Revolting practice

Is it? Within what parameters?

Any practical tips to mitigate the risk - such as not paying upfront, method of payment (cash vs electronic), using a different number etc etc?

What measures or mitigations should clients take if they are concerned about providers potentially working undercover to entrap them? Is this is a genuine risk? Thinking along the lines of law enforcement cutting a deal with providers if they work with them to entrap clients. Keen to hear the thoughts of this forum

Oh please! 🙄 Get a grip

Any interesting tales or desires about fucking way up in an ultra lux high rise penthouse, room with a view? Talking floor to ceiling views, absolutely no blinds

Thanks for all the responses. Seems the agencies or PR people do exist, then… never hear of them though. I really do think there’s a market for ultra premium

Correct - and my takeaway from this thread confirmed what I thought, that should providers request it, the answer should be absolutely no. If they have an issue, I’ll move along swiftly to the next one.

I mean, seriously, in 2024 how can the best we have be such an outdated, non user friendly, unreliable platform? The alternatives are even worse and not worth a mention. How is there not a slick, modern, utterly reliable global platform in 2024? How are there are not agencies that can handle every step of arranging, organizing and guaranteeing bucket list experiences with the best providers (or others like celebs) that are out of normal reach? surely there is a market of zillionaires or those with excessive disposable income to pay anything to have everything taken care of and arranged for a weekend with someone that is otherwise just a fantasy. What happened to money can buy anything?

I Think he’d bottom

I don’t mind whether the concierge notices a tribe of boys coming and going, in fact I prefer it - from a security perspective. I prefer to meet providers in the lobby, maybe have a drink before going up. Most 5 star hotels totally understand discretion and privacy.

Who’s talking about Upper Manhattan?

Don’t buy it - I think it has more to do with entitlement, laziness or both. There are a myriad ways to establish if a client is a time waster - they just lack the initiative to do so

Couldn’t agree more! The idea - no, the expectation - of needing to be chauffeured as a precondition to do outcalls is galling

Sage advice! Thanks very much

Is this normal and expected? It’s becoming far more of a norm in my experience. I don’t mind it, except that if the client has to book the Uber and doesn’t have a separate profile, discretion and total privacy are lost. what’s the alternative if one hosts?

Omg @liubit! You’ve literally just described exactly what I have in mind. Thanks so much. It’s really comforting to know it’s been done, and so successfully. Any advice, risks or tips you might suggest - logistically, or anything else? thanks again

Absolutely an ideal vacation for me too! It’s so much fun planning - selecting the hotel, list of providers etc

This is true and a great idea! But cost isn’t an issue and I prefer longer sessions
