So I read some posts on another board that ladies should/would start charging guys a fee to provide a reference for them after their visits and or charge them a reference fee after giving you 1-2 free referrals.  

giving references is just good customer service, and screening is a cost of doing business.

I agree. giving refs is just good customer service. Screening does not hurt us lol so why charge for that? Now some ladies that have assistants may be tring to cover the cost of the assistant but IDK  
Seems like it would all be covered under the donation. Ladies all have different ways of doing things so I can only say what works for me. Damn if I had charged for all those refs!! LMAO!!
I dont mind giving refs at all and screening is to help us all. I wouldnt ever consider charging for such. I cant knock another lady for what works for them though. Different strokes for different folks
Hugs and kisses

I thought I heard them all before. Not only would I never pay such a fee, but any provider who charges for something like that would never get my business. The other question I have with that scenario is why would the fee be passed onto the john? Providers who institute such a policy should be charging each other. Either way, it sounds ridiculous.

I'm actually seeing a provider today that charges a very small screening fee.  I set the appointment up before I was aware of that and I'm very excited to see her and probably would have set it up even if I was aware of this, but it does seem a little odd.  I certainly hope it doesn't become the norm.

Any provider who engages in such things as absurd as this would immediately be placed on my personal Blacklist.  I'm amazed

Why a dude would do that is beyond me. But I guess it could happen. Lol

I met up with this one provider who was in and out of town periodically.  Over the course of the weeks after our session, she would occasionally send me text messages letting me know that she was offering a special, or available for the weekend, etc.  

¥ To verify my id with the paper that was coming out of her planner¥ with a 29 fee

I hear from many women how slow it is and it is a buyers market in atl now.. So I guess theyre creatively trying to make $ but that wont last long. Guys wont go for it and they shouldnt. I loved giving referalls..Loved getting them too but only from specific sources.. Sigh its getting canabalistic out there in this economy.  Girls not giving referals or giving bad ones, then calling the guy and offering specials... The sense of community we once shared..poof gone  hopefully things get better someday :/

...If I found out about it after a meeting there would be no repeat no matter what.

Newbie friendly ladies have to take on the extra risk of seeing someone who is new. I would think that screening would be already included in the donation. Screening takes about 5 minutes to complete and maybe a phone call or two.

1. Bust or no Bust
2. He did it or his brother did it
3. A provider from there that tours here seems to not be credible at all.
4.I imagine that it would be hard to verify with a non credible provider.
5. With us that post reviews, we should have some credibility

Careful, next they will start asking a fee to leave them a review!

Or, us guys can ask a review fee. Kidding.

Absolutely agree with you on the personal blacklist comment.  I am aware some ladies do not participate in giving references and that is their choice and I have no problem with that.  But charging for a reference after being compensated for a service?  Just SMH - I know many businesses that will sometimes offer incentives to customers for a recommendation, but this is backass backward.  Kinda makes me think guys should get compensated for reviews, but I don't wanna up that can of worms.

Some years ago, on a business trip to the west coast, I left my prescription sunglasses in my rental car at the airport as I was leaving.  Realizing my mistake, I called the rental car company as soon as I could.  They eventually called me back as they had my glasses & wanted to verify my mailing address.  In a couple of days I got a small package in the mail containing my glasses.  Also included was a form letter informing me that there was a $ 3.00 charge to cover sending me my glasses & requesting payment.  My first reaction was that I had my glasses so I had little incentive to send them $ 3.00; I also realized, understanding how big corporations work, that they could not possibly process a check from me for less than $ 3.00 in internal costs.  But being an honest guy I sent them a $ 3.00 check, all the while thinking they should just include this in the rate.  Yeah, if it was a set of golf clubs & it cost $ 80.00 to ship them then OK charge that (or send them COD), but $ 3.00?

buyer decides to pay or not.

you and I agree.  a particular pornstar  I did an overnight with for over $3k actually wanted to charge me $500 dollars for a P411 OK. Then had the nerves to suggest "This is business"  I thought to myself no this is stupid... you just lost a customer.  If you dont understand the concept of "added value"  meaning somethings(reasonable of course) you just go ahead and do because it builds a relationship and rapport with your customer.  I am waiting on the day a provider wants to charge me for her to be "clean and bathed" for an appointment because water and electricity is overhead and "This is business"
