Truthfully I have to advertise there because P411 doesn't make my phone ring like P411 and yes it's the provider equivilent of having to kiss aloy of frong ( no not literally) I mean I turn away 90% of what calls but it still makes the phone ring with 10% good clients. P411 is better for all of us but BP is still where more go to look unfortunately.

So here are a few hints no matter where you find your hobby crush...lol It's always all about playing safe right?

Yes P411 cost and not to beat a dead horse but yes if you can't afford it then this may be the wrong Hobby but I have heard other concerns about P411 from my clients.( they are usually unjustified but they are concerns just the same)
FOR example... P411 also means the hobbyist has to be screened by P411 staff and some find that scary. But Any reputable provider is going to want to screen too. So P411 screens you once and it's done. They are out of Canada and are quiet discreet. They have vested interest inbeing indiscreet that is the very premise they were founded on..Discreet persuit of reputable providers.

I highly recommend P411. However I personally do advertise on BP and I myself am quiet reputable as are many other reputable gals here in Houston. But If P411 and ter are are not your cup of tea I often recommend to new hobbyist that they just do their due diligence and research the gals they are interested in.

How to research??? you might ask....Check how long they have been around. Google their name with the word escort and see how many ads they have going, how old they are ( the ads not the gal) etc..., how many times have they changed their name. Gals who change often and repeatedly generally have caused problems or gotten bad reps etc...

Look for them in more than one advertising place besides BP.. Do they have a website they paid for. if the website advertises other sites then it a free one. If the URL is Rare-escots.com or escortsite.com or escortdesigns.com they may be free ads. Why does these things matter you ask???
For Example:...If they are on Here ( w reviews or have a longstanding profile), BP and Eros Guide( which is quiet costly) and maybe others that means they spend money and time on their business are likely not cops...cops don't have a budget or time for multiple ads that run a longtime, website that cost etc...

Make sure the provider screens thoroughly cops rarely make you jusmp thru hoops to see them because they just want you to show up. Nor do providers that want to crack you over the head and take your money...they just want you to show up too. Make sure they have their info/donations and etiquette written either in the ads or they have a website with the info and then read it and don't discuss it. Cops will want you to talk about money.

BTW just a side not...the fact that a provider has no reviews doesn't mean she's bad...just discreet. I am a no review gal because each encounter I have I consider deeply personal even though un-entangled. So don't always judge gals by a lack of reviews please.

Just note that none of these rules are etched in stone and finding a playmate takes a little effort to ensure she meshes with your desires and is a safe choices. Many gents treat this like renting a car( it's just something I am driving for a very short time... but treat this more like bying one even though you are keeping it long...lol

Thanx again for everyone's advice...it definetly helps

Hey Cruise95.

Maybe you are new, and nobody really has explained things to you.

Hobbying, and Hooking, is now in the 21st Century. Gone are the days when you have to risk picking up Street Walkers, and rolling the dice with a BP girl. Sites such as this, ones that share information, has openned up an entire new world to the guys, and the girls.

In short, the Hobby world is getting smaller. If you read disparaging comments in a Review about a Provider on ECCIE, you can just about take it to the bank. And, if it is bullshit, sooner or later, the poster will be challenged.

The same goes for Hobbyist, because the knife does cut both ways. You insist on being a complete asswipe, and the Ladies have a venue to let the rest of the Hobby World know.

If you are an upstanding member of this community, everyone will know. If you are a dirtbag, everyone will know that as well.

For us older guys, you can't believe how much sites such as ECCIE have changed the entire Hobbying Experience.

Information is a great thing. Use it.

Gees... I just read my post now that I could get on my computer....LOL darn it... that's what I get for typing on my phone...damn eye sight goes to crap after 40...lol sorry for the typo but I hope you got my point...I am really not that stupid
Anyway Cruise Happy Hobbying....

If I go on a trip to dallas and play I guess I'll have to sign up for p411. I've never had problems with screening here in vegas. I usually give them my job info or my handle on TER where I have several reviews and a whitelist approval from a provider.

I still don't understand though why BP has a bad rap. I'm a reputable provider and I post there in certain cities and have never gotten anything but decent client who did have references and often were also members of P411 and Eccie.

This doesn't make sense. Wouldn't your provider references to join P411 have to already be on P411?

I filled out the questionnaire and paid the fee.
The next day I received a phone call opposite of the requested time and was interviewed by a complete pushy, demanding bitch. After telling me the requirements all she wanted to do was lobby the references I used to solisitate them to join p411, which I found to be totally unacceptable and unethical. Later she called me back offering me a second chance because with out p411 I would be left out. Again when I did not give her the info she wanted, she hung up again.
The site offered no means to voice my concerns or request a different representative.
It was all take it or leave it.
This behavior is no different than a BP rip off. Originally Posted by bathwater

Actually, no. At least that was not the case when I joined. I used two lades as references to join, and later talked both of them into joining.
