Thoughts on deposits


Go to solution Solved by Jay_lucas,

Recommended Posts

Hey everybody, my name is Jay. You can find my profile at rentmen.com/jay_lucas 

I just wanted to come on here and say, I found out out this site and thought I would introduce myself, but also talk about a topic. A lot of my regular clients. I don’t require a deposit because we have an understanding of when we’re going to meet. But a lot of New Clients lately I haven’t asked for a deposit upon meeting and  a lot of clients that I don’t ask for a deposit, they end up flaking on me. I’m in Columbus Ohio right now and I had a client scheduled at 12  pm for 3 hours and didn’t show up then blocked me after agreeing to meet with me for weeks. That’s not only is going to affect me financially it’s gonna affect my day. I just wanted to know what your thoughts were on deposits and do you think it’s fair for providers to get one 

 

also, I would recommend people to avoid the guy who flaked on me : rentmen.com/Hornyfortop

 

 

Thank you guys please give me a warm welcome

No one likes flakes.

But gay men are notorious for sitting at home jerking off while talking about sex and then deciding not to leave the house once they dumped their load in their sock

 This happens on hook up apps and it happens to professionals. It's very frustrating.  But the consensus here is that the majority of men WILL pass you by if you insist on a deposit. Too many scams out there for too.many years have made everyone skittish about the concept of paying up front.

Sorry.

Welcome.

Your opener is a question that's been asked multiple times weekly with a plethora of searchable threads at your disposal.

Might I also recommend using a clickable link when posting your socials.

Posting when upset, especially here, is not in your best interests.  Take a breath.

Thanks for the advice. I’m new so thanks for the advice

As a client I definitely do not want to give a deposit primarily based on the possible scam aspect therefore being out potentially 100 to $200. However, I can see why a provider would want some sort of deposit because a no-show definitely impacts your business and income stream. I would recommend not requiring a deposit and set expectations accordingly as well as create a little nest egg for when those clients suddenly become ghosts.

Why just gay men? 

Are you implying bi men and straight men are less flaky?

Should the powers start integrating all threads about a subject or person? It's becoming annoying so many threads on the same subjects: uber, deposits, certain providers, etc.

Set expectations accordingly, what does that mean? Also $100-$200 for a deposit is not necessarily the norm. I vary my deposits up but $50-$100 is where I’m at now. 
 

As for scams: I know this moreso pertains to women escorts but the spirit of the message is the same

I think in general: it’s the seeking of M4M sex period that makes it more flaky. And bi/straight guys looking for M4M sex are just as flaky if not more, than gay guys for obvious reasons.

 

Fact of the matter is: men in generally are flaky, I read a female escort forum and the guys they talk about are the same. Some of it is just biological: men have an urge to cruise more, but can’t always put honesty+horny+money = SCORE for escorts, together. And trying to get all 3 of those things from a man looking for a man?? Lord you have to be clever. How many times have I heard: “I don’t pay for dick” (heard that the other day, and he came over and…well so much for that 🪟 (sometimes RM is slow and doesn’t have clients so I will occasionally use apps if I have time to kill…some clients also use it for their personal use so it’s no secret).

Welcome welcome welcome. You get all the warm 🔥 welcomes for being courageous and willing to LEARN. However, take the advice you hear as opinions from their perspective, not necessarily the business’s perspective and reality.

That said: there’s 2 things I’ll say, but I’ve been fighting this topic enough but, it never gets old for me. #1: my experience in Ohio goes way back. They are one of the more flakiest states to do escort work. Idk why but, I used to go there without deposits and got SCAMMED out of appointments. However in the past couple years, I’ve made sure not to meet anyone without deposits there. Even if it only got me one or 2 clients at most. I rather that, than 1 flake to ruin my day or worse, miss out on potential client elsewhere.
 

In fact: I-70 from Denver to Pittsburg I consider “Flake Central”. Didn’t used to always be that way in Denver but, every other city including Kansas City, St. Louis, Indy, Columbus: You will get burned more times than you can imagine, if you don’t ask for deposits or at least ensure the client is a regular who is reliable.

I don’t know why it’s like that, but considering it runs thru the middle of the country: it’s not the most “progressive minded” I suppose. And don’t anyone on the forum get offended if you live in those areas. I’m not saying anyone in particular, I’m just talking a GENERAL population that exists on the escort sites. It’s not a personal assault however, after living in both Kansas City and St. Louis and seeing the games dudes play even when they aren’t paying: I’d say it is a correlation.

If you are going to do deposits, make sure to bring it up first thing so you don’t waste your time. You may also wish to only do it for certain situations: like if you have to host in a hotel or travel some distance. However, in my experience of going back and forth and only doing it in certain situations: I’m 100% deposit now because you really have no way of truly knowing if they are going to show.

It hasn’t messed up business any more than not taking them have. When I didn’t use to do it, I used to spend so much time waiting around for people.

I appreciate it . Of course I have my own opinion and I do believe we should ask for a deposit when traveling because it does cover the cost of our trip/hotel if we get a deposit but I just wanted to get feedback from other providers and Clients .
