Paying an Escort's Taxi

[Beancounter]

It's the assumption I've made.

 

but I'm guessing it's a whole different ballpark if you escort in Peoria.

 

Maybe Andrew Justice could comment on Peoria. :p:p

Hi. Have you ever asked a client to cover your taxi or parking? I'm wondering if that's over the line when the rate is already pretty high. The scenario is an outcall to my hotel. Thanks.

 

I've twice offered to pay for parking when I've visited Los Angeles, just because hotels there tend to have expensive per day and per hour parking rates. But my L.A. regular refused each time. That only makes me desire him more!

 

Since I, like the delicious Mr. @Eric Hassan, live in New York City, this whole idea never even occurred to me until someone on this forum started a thread on the subject a few years back, which is what prompted me to make the offers. I stopped after two attempts, when it seemed like my regular made it clear that he did not desire such additional compensation.

While traveling I typically only do In-Calls, if I'm doing an outcall 1 of 3 things is going to happen if it's a new random client that I don't trust 100% yet..

 

1.) Order my Uber to you / Pick me up

 

2.) Meet me somewhere for dinner to get aquanited

 

3.) A 10-20% Deposit is asked

 

I usually open with the dinner offer and they accept that then hitch a ride back with them.

 

I always get myself back to my hotel after the session (ordering an Uber, etc..)

 

This is why it's easiest to just be located in a downtown area with a nice, clean and friendly hotel that has decent parking!

 

No one has ever turned me away. I don't act desperate, I just lay it down nicly to protect us both. After Ubering a couple times to fake calls off Backpage, Adam and Grindr I developed this tool to protect my time while traveling, it may seem petty but that 5-15 minute uber ride one way, now turned into a hour ordeal trying to find the unexisiting client. LOL, Never again!

This should probably be a separate thread but There is no Uber and Lyft service available in Austin, TX anymore. They had an election there and both services pulled out after losing an election that subjected them to more regulations. Consider this a Public Service Announcement.

[Brian Kevin]

Thank you beancounter! San Antiono, TX downtown as well! Couple other cities. All the more reason for me to host

[+ WilliamM]

I'm actually kind of surprised at the responses in this thread.

 

Me too. Before this site existed a friend told me positive things about a new escort who lived on Long Island. We talked on the phone several times. I liked him a lot and invited him to Philadelphia for an overnight. I asked him how he was getting to Philly. He talked about taking the bus from the Port Authority in NYC. I insisted on Amtrak instead and paying for his round trip ticket.

 

I agree with @bigvalboy above about making the offer. One highly regarded escort refused taxi costs because he had another client appointment ten blocks away and preferred to walk. I learned tonight how lucky I have been that no escort has ever asked me for transportation costs, and I very greatly appreciated those escorts even more now.

By paying his ticket you made it clear you weren't bullshiting. That's admirable of you. A lot of people leave too much grey area and aren't clear on things. Amtrak is my favorite, even trumps flying in my book. Hate airports and I'm so tall the scans never work on the top of my head so sometimes they search my head with there hands, I can't blame them though rather safe than sorry. Usually they only ask to see the top of my head. I think the scalp patting only comes when big bosses are around lol. But if I go thru a metal detector there is no difference. What can one possibly hide up there??

Brian, Another thing you can not hide is what I nice person you are. I voted for you as Escort of the Year based solely on your contributions to this site. I hope I get to hire you some day, man.

... What I'm charging you is what feels right to me." The shock on my face must've been evident. He grinned, leaned in, kissed me, and said: would love to do this again. I then realized what a smart businessman he really is. He wasn't looking for a transaction or to be "fairly" compensated. ....

 

Based on his comment about his pricing structure, he feels that he is being fairly compensated. What you feel in this case is, frankly, irrelevant.

No more irrelevant than your irreverence with your comment.

 

Look at what TR 'felt' :"I also felt the level of responsibility & trust he is placing on me as a client."

 

Geez, would somebody give me a tablet?

[mike carey]

But, I realize I live in a nice little bubble and my strategy might work for me, but I'm guessing it's a whole different ballpark if you escort in Peoria.

Not related specifically to escorting, but to small town life in general. People tend to accept that driving some distance for things is just part of life, they have a car and its operating expenses are just part of life, they don't calculate the cost of each trip and add that to the cost of whatever they were travelling to do. I guess there's common ground for both a big city and a small town, service provoders are likely to accept transport costs that to them are 'normal' as a cost of doing business.

 

Escorting is different to many other small businesses, there is a choice of offering the service either at the client's or the escort's premises. A plumber or electrician can't do that. As is so often the case, communication!

[+ harey]

Guys, thanks for all the responses and including regional and city differences. Very helpful.

 

I prefer out calls to my hotel and gwnerally feel the rate should include transportation expense. In some cases I'll gladly cover parking if I'm staying downtown in a big city. That happened recently because the appointment was late night and no free parking was available. The escort mentioned it up front and I offered to cover parking. I really like this guy and we've met before, so it wasn't a big deal. Someone else and I might have passed.

 

Another escort recently asked me to order uber for him. At first that struck me as odd - as if I was paying shipping and handling for a delivery. When I asked, he explained it was to make sure I was real. I guess in the past he'd been stood up by first time clients, so now he's cautious. That makes sense so I agreed.

 

On a side note, I'm in SoCal, which means thin public transportation and parking headaches.

[+ Keith30309]

When I'm traveling I've no problem ordering an Uber (on my account) for a guy to come to my hotel as long as it's a reasonable cost.

It's never happened with a companion but I've incurred an $85 Uber ride when peak pricing kicked-in. Unfortunately it's not something you know until you order the vehicle.

I also don't mind paying parking at my hotel, though I've never been asked.

 

In the grand scheme of things it's not allot of money and bickering with a potential companion about a petty expense isn't conducive to setting a mood where we both can have a pleasant, relaxed trusting time together.

 

What is interesting to me are the rare cases where the in-call rate is higher than out-call.... the best explanation I've heard is that a roommate has to be incented to leave though I suspect some guys just don't like having their personal space invaded by a stranger.

[BaronArtz]

I wonder what clients and escorts in Los Angeles do. The city so spread out, and it can take an hour or more to drive just 2O miles ... think of the cost of fuel also. As an escort, how do you do several appointments per day and be on time? Or is it assumed in LA that everybody is always 'late'?

 

It must be a real nightmare to be stood up by an outcall client in LA ...

[Sigmund Freud]

Typically for me, I look at the Incall and Outcall rates and if the outcall rates are higher and I am staying within the city (NYC the majority of the time), then I am figuring that the escort is putting in the travel transportation costs within the rates. Now, on the flip side. I do set aside Tip money if the encounter is everything that we discussed and was absolutely a hot session. If the Outcall is higher than then Incall rates and the escort insists on me paying for transportation and they live within the city of NYC, then the tip will be used for that. I try to get all rates and adjustments up front. If the escort nickels and dimes me then I politely ask him to leave.

Absolutely right! You totally understood my point...his business, he runs it as he sees fit and I have the option to sponsor it or not. The escort confronted me in a tactful yet direct way and then embraced me. I was put in my place with such grace. I realized that whatever I thought about his pricing structure was indeed irrelevant, but I also realized that he knew what he was doing and had given it forethought - whereas I had not given much thought to my "coaching" him. I love it when someone opens my eyes to a new perspective

I didnt interpret @rvwnsd's comment as you did. I thought he was trying to emphasize a point. By the way, this reminds me that you made a wonderful point earlier:

 

How does one grow to know someone else if they don't continue to transact?

 

I thought what you said was so right! We, clients & escorts, judge each other so harshly and quickly, particularly in this forum. Sometimes we use such harsh logic and give up on people way too easily based on 1 transaction, when what matters is the relationship. Typically, I try to avoid quoting religious figures, but I believe TD Jakes said it best:

 

[Juan Vancouver]

I have great respect for you and your responses on this forum. It just seems like sometimes both clients and escorts in their wariness to transact their business tend to seek and find THE disqualifier to cease all transactions.

 

How does one grow to know someone else if they don't continue to transact?

 

Almost makes me want to change my pseudonym here to "Once and DONE"

 

In my social life I am more than willing to extend the benefit of the doubt to people who I felt behaved in a way that didn't feel good. Sometimes they show that occurrence was an oddity and I continue to engage with them gladly.

 

When I am working, when my time is at stake, when my safety is at stake, once burned, I am done. There is absolutely no reason for me to allow any rooms for abuse, especially considering there are so many amazing, loving, fun, respectful men out there with whom I can spend tim and get to know better.

 

I am not a charity and I am nobody's mother. I am not in the business of forgiving people's abuse to be kind. I am here to engage in loving, respectful, fun relationships with men who respond in kind. Sadly I do not have time to spend any time with people with dubious moral character.

 

If this is a crime, shackle me up and book me, officer. I am guilty as sin.

As usual, I totally respect your limits, your business procedures, and your expressing yourself in complete paragraphs with succinct point (maybe that's just envy). It IS YOUR business.

 

I'm just saying trifling issues should not be automatic disqualifiers for clients when hiring/rehiring escorts, doctors, lawyers, massage therapists, personal trainers, any professionals.

Thanks. I know someone understood my point.

Maybe escorts should implement a fuel surcharge like UPS and Fed Ex.

As I live in the NJ suburbs, any NYC escort that I hire to come out to me in Jersey....I always tell them I'll cover tolls and gas plus their outcall fee.

Plus if we have chemistry and they are really pleasant to be with then they also leave with a goody bag as well (gift cards protein bars underarmour or Nike products)

I enjoy making their visits memorable
