There have been a couple of times when I felt as though my identity was at risk, so I had to take down my site and what not for a few days. It's not a huge deal, but I don't blame you for being nervous since she didn't give you a heads up about it. If I were you, I'd just shoot her a quick email to let her know that you'll no longer be able to make your date. Had she notified you ahead of time that she was going to pull her web presence, I'd say keep the date, but in this case she dropped the ball. Better safe than sorry.
Maybe a stupid question, but I wonder if anyone has been in this situation before?
A Provider that I had an appointment scheduled in the next few weeks has suddenly had her P411 Account go "Inactive Listing". The weird thing was that it shows the P411 account was logged in just a few days ago, but it is suddenly removed. The only way I even noticed is when I looked in my favorites profile on the site, her page was no longer listed, and the only way I could access her info was to go to the 'My requests' section. I was sort of confused, so I went to her actual site and it was no longer available. It's still available under google cache, but the actual site goes nowhere.
Just wondering if this has happened to anyone before, and if it means anything? The weird thing is, she is very highly rated, in the 9's, and has tons of positive reviews, hence why I picked her in the first place lol
If those sites were pulled down she obviously retired, is taking a break, or went UTR. Could be for any reason which is none of our business (but example scenarios are stalkers, legal issues, health issues, family emergencies, and all kinds of other reasons.)
Since you actually had an appointment scheduled, you can reach out to her (once only! Do not badger her!) via phone, text, email, or however you communicated with her last. Just ask simply, "Is our appointment still on?" Be prepared for no response, or even finding out that her phone or email etc, has been cancelled too. If she actually replies, take it from there, if no reply, let it go, and move on. Find another lady and set another appointment
If the last communication was through the P 411 system of either PM or "appointment request" I would suggest using another means of communication to reach out to her. Email is the most likely way to be able to reach her if she has gone UTR, was busted, for what ever reason has pulled all her ads and website.
From what you have told us, it's still unlikely that you will get a response, but this should give you your best shot at getting a message to her that she actually receives.
The risk is elevated if she goes "dark" and I don't think newbs should walk into a situation where there is any extra, added risk, imo.
Thanks a lot, I'll try that. I'll admit I found it a little disconcerting, especially since it was my first ever session, so it certainly wasn't helping the nerves.
I didn't realize this was your first ever session when I made my comment to contact her once, then forget it. Since this was your first ever session, I would skip the contact her part and say just forget it. Move forward, and find someone else. These things do happen (like I said for many different reasons). Just chalk it up to bad timing for it to happen while you were trying to book your first ever session.
If it is your first at bat, I would just drop it and pick another provider. The situation is too ambiguous. Might not end well. Why risk it?
Hrm, interesting.
The only question I have is, if you both advise me not to go through with it, is that as I mentioned earlier, I still do have a session still scheduled. Should I just contact her, to inform her that I'm cancelling, with her most likely not replying to her email anyway? Or, so I just not contact her period, and then if for some reason, she does contact me by Cell on the day of the appointment, as was originally planned, just go through with business as usual?
Sorry if it sounds confusing, just trying to think of the best scenario.
Cancel, of course. Both sides need to be professional. Cancel with an explanation. Maybe she'll explain to your satisfaction.

Use what ever contact method you have been up to now. I would say you noticed her site was down & P411 inactive so you are assuming your date is OFF. She might have done this for a variety of reasons (which are none of our business)... or she might not even know.
Give her a couple of days to get back to you before you actually schedule with someone else... though I doubt she will. Don't burn the bridge. You may well want to schedule with her in the future.
I'd actually suggest you not pick you 'ideal' date for your first. She is your temporary girlfriend & I find it best to enjoy the experience but know that if I make rookie mistakes it will not be with one I want as a Favorite. I think that increases the pressure & likelihood of flubs.

That is like asking TER why a provider was delisted.
Fancy, I really wish you would stop posting nonsensical advice on the newbie board. Stick to your posts on the GD, unless you truly have meaningful info to add here.
Have a good day.

Her trolling on the GD is tolerated but not needed here.
She doesn't give any well thought out and decent advice here and only causes confusion, and thats not good for newbs.

You have been known to give some inaccurate advice on this board, advice that could cause problems for newbies if they were to follow it. No one is trying to be insulting, we just want to see to it that the correct info is being put out there.

But you REALLY need to STFU now.
You are trolling the NB and arguing with people all over the place and TER frowns on BOTH here so knock it off and TRY to act like a lady.
Are you capable?
OMG, HOW is Tobi trashing P411? And everyone IS on topic, you just don't like what people are saying. This is a HELP board on TER for newbies. You are being rude to the new host.
Are you a member of P411? If so adding a link on your TER profile would be a good way for you to promote business. If you are not you are talking out of you A$$.

And you know I have no problem with her being rude to me and I can handle myself. I do have a problem with nonsense on the newbie board. Misinformation, fights, and trainwrecks don't belong here.

The best way you can promote yourself on this board is to be nice and helpful and instead of rude and ridiculous. The only person on this thread not helping newbies is you. And advice on Newb Board IS free! It's not to promote business it's to help the new people.
You want to help your biz? Get another review and show people on this board you want to help the new people, not throw up anything just to have your name attached. Why don't you think about what you say here and is it even close to being accurate. That's your handle that goes with every post you make here. Think about it....

Well me and most likely Perfect Storm, the guy charged with keeping this board staying on it's mission that is.
and I will continue to go to Admin as long as you keep disrupting this board with your own personal vendettas and bad advice.
Although I am certainly not a newbie to this world, I do appreciate the honest comments and feedback given by a number of individuals on both sides of the equation.
I often read the questions and answers posted because there is always something new to learn. Her commentary on this board offers no sound or sage advice for anyone and this board would be better served if they just prohibited her from being able to post here.

unless you would like to start a school on how best to get thrown off of the leading verification site in the business.
The newbies are just starting off here, they don't need to learn how to cause trouble.
and Fancy, not to be "mean" but you are hardly competition for Tobi. Aside from being female and in the same basic line of work, there is nothing similar about the two of you.

Yes, this is off the topic of the OP. But it seems the "topic" has now become you......
So, WHY do you keep using the phrase "illegal business" and calling providers "prostitutes"?
I honestly would like to know why you do this.
I think admin is about to put an end to this as this is just making this board, and TER, look like a joke and TER always cared for this board a bit more bc of all the newbs watching.
Lets hope they finally act.
Nothing I've said was remotely untrue, and in fact I was quite kind so your defensiveness is really unnecessary.
As far as "knocking out the competition," let's not go there. We're not even in the same state.

Also as the newbie board host, I do very much worry about your posting. You are constantly posting misinformation and nonsense to the newbies, and challenging other providers. That is not what this board is for.
