I have a question based on a recent experience and like to hear your opinions.

I recently saw a provider working for an agency and we had a great time. We also had a good deal of chemistry and she gave me her phone number. A few days later, I called her and we set up a time. A few hours before the appointment, she called to say that her booker/agent had booked someone else and she needed to move it to a later time. That time worked for me, so I had no problem. We met, had a good time, but unlike the first time, she seemed to be rushing me  - I suspect she had squeezed me in between her official agency bookings. We still had a good second time and have been texting since and planning to meet next week.

So here is my question: We had had a great first time, I was a returning customer and I was paying her the full amount, and was disappointed to be rushed and get less time. So next time, should I book her through her booker even though I know her quite well now - in order to get my full time and not be rescheduled?

Thanks for your advice.

The fact that you were rushed and that you paid the full amount says it all.  If I were you, I would do the following.

Tell her that you'll see her at a reduced rate for the same time.  So, if you were paying the agency $350, offer $300 to her.  If she says no, move on and see someone else.

as long as she is not working as an independent..she works for the agency..unless you can match what she makes from the agency..the agency will always take preference..

If anything, I am paying More than the agency - I paid the full price without any agency commission.

She's playing the agency by squeezing you in between appointments. The agency wouldn't be too happy about this behavior. If you want to keep seeing her, book her through the agency to make sure you get the full time you paid for.

then she is definitely playing you..she is charging the agency price without paying them their fee..like PP said..a lot of these girls freelance..squeezing appointments between the ones that are scheduled for her..if her booker finds out..she will be an independent rather quickly..they play the game to their advantage
