My understanding is that this practice (i.e. discount in exchange for a certain numerical score on a review) is against TER rules and if you report it to admin they may delist the offending party.   There were several incidents like this in Boston in early 2016 involving online ads offering a discount in exchange for a 10/10 review.  When it was reported, the providers in the ads were quickly delisted from TER.   However in  this case the ads turned out to be fake (presumably put up by a rival using content borrowed from the providers website).  After considerable work the providers effected were able to get relisted but it was quite a hoopla.  

I just got an email from one of Chicago's agencies ,  
this e-mail says  " We give $100 off if you write 9 or 10 star review about girl (except ........ and ........ ) on TER !!!

I have never heard of agencies buying great reviews , its a total sham IMO,  
As reviewer I feel im being bribed to write a positive review even though the service might have been less  
then good.

In my opinion this practice should not be allowed , give it a like if you agree.  
All those 9s and 10s reviews that I see of their beautiful girls ,I am starting to wonder if they are real.  

I hope this agencies reconsiders its promotion and continues to give their clients $100 off for A REAL review ( NOT A FAKE review )
Perhaps provide great incentive to your girls for excellent review would be more positive approach .
Bottom line is , provide great service and great reviews will follow.

be it added time or money, or money off a date for a review of any type according to the TER rules.  Presenting that email to TER could get that agency banned and all of the reviews that are up, taken down.  It is considered a major offense here

Here is the actual language per TER's review rules:

"TER has a policy against exchanging good reviews for favors (free or discounted meetings, etc.) or anything of value. (TER also has a policy against attempting to get free or discounted meetings, etc. by threatening a bad review.) Remember, you are trying to be help other members get the best bang for their buck, and fake or inaccurate reviews don’t do that."

Please note it says "good reviews," meaning it IS permitted to solicit or to write a review for a discount.  What is NOT permitted is to require a good review or a high numerical grade requirement.  So an ad simply offering a $100 discount for a review without stipulating a review graded 9 or 10 IS permitted.
I have seen such ads and they have not been pulled.  Perhaps TER will confirm or rebut what I've said.

Yes , agreed .

But the add they posted specificly said they would give you 100$ off if you gave a rating of 9 or higher . That is illegal .

with what Jake said.  Honest and accurate reviews should be encouraged by all means.

Score inflation is a problem in many professions. As an academic, I score in good faith. I refuse to give deadline extensions for frivolous reasons; my personal principles extend to my hobby. Young people expect 10 regardless of actual merit; it's the mentality of the entire generation.

The TER rules slways need to evolve because there will always be those looking for an advantage. It's hard to stop fraudsters in an illegal hobby.

As an Agency we love reviews. Some of my models prefer not to be reviewed in order to be discreet. They rely on my agencies establishment and advertising to bring them clients so they don't have to depend on reviews but the reviews are appreciated. And to be honest I feel some type of way seeing agencies putting up fake reviews just to mislead hobbyist. Now discounts for perfect reviews is outrageous. I've offered review specials but that's for honest reviews. It gives a girl looking to get further established an opportunity to get reviewed by a white listed member. I believe in providing quality girls who provide quality services. So quality reviews come from being a quality provider.

So to such agencies, step your game up. Hire quality providers and show them what providing great service as a provider is, and simply ask may I have a review of my services. And if you treated him like a king and didn't come off like you got something better to be doing. Then there won't be any reason for fake reviews. I rather have no reviews than fake ones or a bunch or reviews from these new pop up review boards. If it's not a T.E.R. review its not authentic in my eyes. I've been a member with this agency on TER over 6 years  with or without reviews and all TER members are treated like kings...
