what is the best way for verification for a first time with an independent?

Room Service as most ladies are being very careful.  Truth is that there are some ladies that a RS membership wouldnt be enough for, they simply have to have a provider referance(which you dont have and cant get till you see someone, vicious circle).  Thank LE for the stringent screening.  Unless of course you are willing to goto a great agency like Secretly-Yours.com which I dont think REQUIRES you to have a provider ref but then they use extream discretion as to who does and doesn't get seen.  Good luck

I also ask for the phone number to the main switchboard where a potential client works then ask for them by name.  That way you know they work where they say they work and are not LE.  Hope that helps.
