This was touched on in my other thread but i would really appreciate some detailed info about how this all works. Just how much personal info do these lovely ladies require. How do references from ladies from other cities work etc

I just have no clue how it all works

You mention in your other post that you're a newbie, and indeed have no reviews here.  Then you claim to know the owners of several agencies in your hometown.  If you do, it would seem that you could provide any credentials needed to see someone here, and that you should be aware of that.

As to what the ladies require, it would seem that each lady would set her own standards.  The key is that she feels comfortable.  Stories that don't add up don't help that cause.  Food for thought.

mate this might enlighten you

I'm from Australia. Here references as such are non existent in the industry

Of course private ladies use various means including their instincts to weed out the genuine good clients from the bad, but the concept of official references  does not happen in Australia.

That makes sense, and hopefully everything works out for you.  References aren't the only screening.  Now you just need to find that special lady that asks for other things.
