(2) Have you considered how much "administrative" duties P411 relieves the ladies? I've never submitted references or asked somebody to provide one (other than requesting a P411 ok). I can't imagine how annoying it is to constantly provide referrals and references. I can't imagine how cumbersome it is to deal with other providers and wait around for a a peer-reviewed background check. How awkward is it to ask someone you met 6 months ago for permission to see someone else. At some point, P411 just becomes professional courtesy in acknowledging somebody else's time.

In my personal business, if I meet an average client once and then don't hear from them for months, I am not likely to remember them in great detail. And truly the last thing I want to do is spend time referring them to a competitor, that would be low on my priority list. Figure it must be similar here, and given the number of posts regarding difficulty in getting references from the ladies, I'd say this is true.
P411 makes the administrative burden much lighter, and more comfortable for me as a hobbyist. And as others have noted, with 2 references I did not have to provide any real world info. They also have a number of methods to support anonymous payment.
And for my personal taste, every lady that I have wanted to meet is on P411 to the point that if I notice a lady who is not, I begin to wonder why. It has made the screening process much easier, and I find it well worth the fee, even for the lower volume hobbyist. I have tended to be a repeat client and have only really needed P411 for screening once or twice in the last year, but on those occasions it made all the difference in the world.
