Burner numbers

i use the same app mentioned in an earlier note by Mike. I have had good luck with it.  The subscription I use allows one to use up to 3 different numbers at a time.  It is a little awkward to receive calls on the burner number but I plan to keep using it.

I use mine to flake out, stalk, bother, and get myself off because I'm a shady, dishonest, insincere deadbeat.

You at times, possibly are.  And with the security of a burner number, you can get away with it and we would never know.  
However, there are experienced providers who will not proceed with you.

FALSE:  "escorts use google voice"

  All of the professional escorts that I've ever known, use their actual real cell phone number.   
 

FALSE: "you can't tell when a number is fake"

There ARE ways to find out if someone is using a burner phone, voip, or google voice.  [not at liberty to say how]. 
 

In my experience 99.9% of guys using a fake / voip / google voice = are deadbeat  time wasters who have no intention of actually meeting up.  Fake numbers = zero accountability for keeping an appt thus its possible for the client to have a bit of "fun" at our expense, time and income.  👎🏻😡

 

I use Google Voice or a Burner Phone.  I'm not a flake, but it has come in handy when an escort was upset over a bad review.  I also know many escorts use a separate phone so they can turn off work.

 It's a fucking phone number.  I never cease to be amazed how excessively SOME escorts bitch about "time wasters" and "Blocked numbers" and "Fake numbers" WAHHHH.  you took 2 minutes of my day for the second time this month, and I want it back GODDAM IT!

Here’s my take (from a real live provider) from having used Google voice for many years, and why I eventually stopped using it:

When I would send clients template messages, I didn’t realize it was coming in portions, sometimes cut off from the rest of the sentence. A client pointed that out to me during an exchange.

2nd reason is: so many clients have iPhones now. Which I use. So, with my iPhone: I can see if a client has read my message, or that it was delivered. I can do Apple Pay, which clients have paid me on before as well.

 Also: I was noticing Google voice messages usually went thru on time, but when driving thru a remote or mountainous location, sometimes it wouldn’t or I was waiting until I reached signal to be able to get the message. If ever I’m not in an area of good signal: which can be anywhere from a barber shop to a hotel or my gym (idk why some buildings just have perpetually bad signal for no reason), I can plug into WiFi.

I also found the Google voice platform difficult to manage, as I couldn’t see a clients picture, or include my picture with my avatar, which is my biz card. All of those things are why I switched to a regular number. Not to mention: having a burner number on the same phone as you’re private phone, is not enough to separate unrecognized calls. I know if one phone rings, it’s family, medical, or sales call. If the other rings, it’s someone seeing my ad. 
 

So yah, everybody reasons going to be different. As a provider, I would not recommend using a burner phone. For a client, it doesn’t matter because I ask for a deposit from all regardless if they include their pic and real phone number with address included.

I admire how lightly you make that sound. But the reality is much more consuming. If it weren’t, then the discussion would be non existent.

To send a text may only take 2 minutes, but when you go thru the process of setting aside time, booking a room, perhaps traveling to a city: you’ll see that 2 minutes adds up to HOURS. Hours that could be used to get things done. Yet was spent on someone who wasn’t really intending to go with the booking to begin with. 
 

Some people don’t mind having their time wasted. I sat side by side with one escort who would have calls and text round the clock. Sometimes not even telling them he’s for pay. The person would hang up, and he’d wait for the next. Didn’t bother him. 
 

I personally couldn’t. But again, everybody’s tolerance level is different. You’ve been around awhile, so you know. I feel like people were more serious back in 2008-2014 than they are now. However, I still had my share of just outlandishly flaky clients over the past 10 years to where, if having a bit of boundaries disinterests someone, that’s on them

Right, it's not the two minutes on the phone, it's the 45 minutes waiting for him to no show.
