Its not like I'm personally hurt or anything, but I couldn't understand how Melanie in Reno had such consistently good reviews.  Now I know.  When she gets a bad one, she complains and it is removed.  My review was 100% spot on.  Does this happen often with other reviews?

In my experience.  VERY bad experience with a provider, rio-off type where she took the case, said she had a buddy in LE, and ran out the door.  She has pretty good reviews here and is a long time provider.  My review was denied so no one else has seen it.  

I think the vast majority of well reviewed gals are great though..not disparaging them here!  But you really do need to have your radar up, TER is NO protection against problems I believe....

It sucks because the only way to hear about is through back channels which unless you ask abut everyone, you probably won't know to ask.
