Deposits

What are some thoughts when a provider asks for a deposit before meeting? Have any of you every done it? Providers, have you requested that and is this a legit practice now or is it usually a scam? I am seeing it more and more and just wondered what you all thought.
I've never done it and I'm hesitant to do it. Maybe if I'm traveling out of town it would make sense but no thanks. One of the reasons I've never seen a few girls despite having amazing pictures. One in particular whose on Eros but has NO reviews that I can find.
If a provider has a stellar reputation, or is someone I've seen before that moves towards deposits, I have no issue with it.
Certainly it's understandable to be hesitant with deposit requirements, particularly those where reviews or experiences are scarce.
It's your time and efforts to choose. Choose wisely and have a good time.

For those gents willing to pay deposits to ladies, it is your time and money so do what makes you happy. To ladies who require deposits to schedule appts with us gents, I respect your business plan, but no matter how much I want to see you, I will decline to contact or book. Win/ Win right?
Only once I have been asked for a deposit when contacting a lady,.this lady has been on my bucket for a number of years. She travels through my area occasionally, her schedule never has matched mine. We have chatted through SM over the years. Over 4 month time period we had contact about meeting in her travels. 1st time requested was not available. 2nd time we booked 2 months out. 3 weeks till appt I had to cancel because of a new job. Thought things were cool. New schedule and was coming through again, contacted and yep time was available, but would only see me with a $250 NON-Refundable deposit because I cancelled, On going discussion with her booking asst and her, she felt....in my opinion only I was wasting her time over the years. Good thing I didn't book. because of my job demands I would have had to cancel last minute and lost my deposit.

In reality I would still love to see her, but I know it will never happen because life gets in the way and prevents certain events from happening.
Beware of chicks that bake cookies for the blind and also are only 5ft tall and wear a size 1 dress and a size 1 shoe and are into BCBG clothes and ask for 2000 deposit.


YEP BEWARE
I have for travel expenses. (Some places it doesn’t make sense to leav3 encounters up to chance.) I’m one to sample before buying big, so knowing the lady beforehand makes sense to me. Like Finman said, we invest in our preferences—if they aren’t willing to meet initially without deposit it probably doesn’t make sense for me, but if I’ve had to reschedule on them, it’s a bigger time commitment, or they’re setting up three-way-play.....when the lady is comfortable somehow magically I am too.

Sadly, what I couldn't convey to the assistant and her was that it was not the deposit that I objected to but that is was non refundable. I would still see her in a heartbeat if our schedules ever worked out, but I seriously doubt she would even answer an email from me. Oh well

I wouldn’t send a deposit to a girl I’ve seen a dozen times. I would really only trust a very few, local girls. Here is a short list but I’m not sure if any of them require deposits. Kelsey, Jocelyn, Jessica and April. I know April is not available but I could not preform the day we met. She said she would give me a free session and low and behold she contacted me about a month later wanting to give me a freebie. I really couldn’t believe it. I still can’t believe I couldn’t preform. What a rack she had.

I’ve done it. Fortunately I’ve never been burned by it but the potential is high enough. There are some girls who also treat the deposit like it’s a free donation from you to her. So you prepay for two hours and you get the runaround until you offer to pay for the third hour do you can hand her more money.

I don’t recommend it.
I skipped seeing a lady who I had seen in the past a few times due to her now requiring a $20 deposit. Sorry, but I’m not interested in wiring money for security reasons. Just seems like a bad move. If you need 20 bucks to justify a trip, you should probably find somewhere else to go. I also haven’t found a lady willing to give me a deposit to ensure they make sure I have a good experience. Just the way it goes. 🤷🏼
100% hard pass. This is just a way for some women to scam people. I won't even call them providers because they don't intend to provide anything.

I’ve requested it a few times and got it every time but it’s for trips like 2+ hours away of course I’ll ask for a 50$ deposit off the visit upfront in case when I get there and this has happened after proper screening the gent not have the donation so sorry 50$ is more then worth 4 hours worth of driving. And I’ve also gotten deposits for outta state travel. But not every female is out doing the right things some are scams. Do some research first if’s she well reviewed 🤷🏻♀️

Deposits are necessary to secure meeting with me I'll be available in Des Moines, IA 2/4 - 2/6. No reputable provider that's invested thousand of dollars into her name isn't going run off with deposit. Take time do your research and of course use your gut.
