when screening..what kind of info do you need to get? what is appropriate where the gent is not going to think something is up? I usually just ask for reference of other providers that they have been with and contact them and so far so that has worked for me, but if there is other thing to check for screening please let me know.

yeah, unfortunately you cannot join the providers only board unless you have 3 reviews on TER, i think?

Your best bet might be to look at some other providers web sites and see what they are asking for on their contact forms.  One of my regular ATF ladies asks for first and last name, city and state that you are from, business phone number and a photo ID when you arrive at the appointment. She also requires at least one reference from an active indie provider that she can contact via phone or email.

Reference from other ladies that you know (other local ladies) is the gold standard.

Other ladies you can validate that they are ladies is also worthwhile.

For real newbies, employment info, and calling their to verify he works there is what typically happens next.

Ask for board handles so you can see their posts (looking for history of hobbying).

You are trying to find out:
1) He is not LE
2) He will be a good date (not NCNS, won't ask for strange stuff, etc.)

Good hunting

I use all the information you have given and you are a newbie and a gentlemen no less.

Nothing works better than references for me but I do want to see how someone conducts themselves here as well. It is a great comfort for me to know someone has been around a long time.

It is an election year and a very hot and sticky summer. Do be careful
