I'm not a pissed of NCNS victim, but I've always appreciated it when dudes share their NCNS misfortunes. Over the weekend, I scheduled an appointment with Gigi for late this afternoon (Monday). I e-mailed her on Sunday night to confirm and she replied with her address and said she looked forward to seeing me. I left work early, rushed home, showered and drove back across the metro in late afternoon traffic. I arrived on time at the top of the hour.
The doors on the building to her studio were locked. Without her phone number (she is strictly e-mail, as far as I know), I knocked on the glass doors. It did not look like anyone was in the building, but there was a side door with a door bell. I didn't feel comfortable ringing the bell, but I did anyway. No luck. All I could do was e-mail her, so I did, telling her I was outside the building. At nine minutes after the hour, I e-mailed again to tell her, "I'm here."
There were guys working in the parking lot across the street, and it looked like they noticed me loitering in front of the building. I returned to my car and e-mailed her again at 11 minutes after the hour. I told her I was in my car on the side of the building and would wait until 20 after before considering it an NCNS. At 20 minutes after I e-mailed a last time, saying I hope you're okay, but you have my cell number in these e-mails and you could've called if you couldn't make it. I also said I would wait an hour or two before posting on TER if she wanted to contact me.
It's been over eight hours and I haven't heard from her. Gigi, if you read this, I hope nothing bad happened. I know life happens, but I went through a lot of trouble to keep our appointment. I'm sure you have plenty of regulars, but it doesn't look like I'll be one of them.
My first NCNS. I've joined the club.
....several posts telling the tale of NCNS, cancelled appointments and just poor business practices were here on the board. I also emailed her, but got no reply. She obviously has some issue(s) but who knows what they are. Probably the best advice was posted by Geronimo in that thread, "just move on".

I had no idea that previous thread was about Gigi. No problem moving on.
I've seen Gigi many times, she can be very hard to see and I've never had a NCNS, but have had a reply of an opps on her scheduling. I'm not sure what's going on in her life, but it seems to be an issue that appears over and over with her scheduling. All I can say is, if you have patience, she's worth it. Otherwise, she works with Victoria, who is a great person to be with. So if you need to see someone that compares very well, check her out.
I too have seen GiGi multiple times and like others have loved every minute with her. She was right on time for our first session, and we scheduled a repeat for 10 days later via e-mail. She was an NCNS this time, and did not respond to e-mail inquiries sent later that day and over the next several weeks. Like others I was puzzled by this because our session was wonderful and she said she would like to see me again. A month later I decided to make a final attempt before giving up, and sent an e-mail that included a couple of personal details about our session in hopes GiGi would remember me. Something clicked and she responded with apologies, stating she had been very busy. We made arrangements for another session, and since then have repeated numerous times. She has not NCNS'd me again, but she has been late for several of them (she has my cell number and notified me) and once she had to reschedule at the last minute due to unforeseen circumstances. There have been periods where she responds promptly to communication and others where she doesn't respond for at least a week. Perhaps she chooses to cut off all business-related activities for a period in order to recharge, perhaps there is drama in her life, or maybe it's a combination of things. I believe GiGi is a good person who doesn't intentionally mess with clients, but isn't well organized and has some issues in her life. Her sessions are exceptional, but you have to be willing to accept her scheduling quirks and lengthy periods of non-communication.
It's not a club we choose to be in but there is plenty of good company. Better luck next time!
Sometimes it is hard to make contact with her, but when you do see her.....oh so fine!!!
same club. Not with Gigi but with others. I wanted to ask about email only contact.
Seems it's getting more common and I'm not a big fan. I'm probably in the minority
but I don't have email on my phone so once I'm on the road for an appt my only
means of contact is cell phone voice or text. Without a contact phone number I have
no means of contact if something unusual happens....and like they say, shit happens.
What's a person to do? And why email only?
I only do email for setting up first appointments. After a gent has been cleared, as you know, I have a phone that I hope they keep private. It is important for me to not give it out to just anybody, but it's important for when they are late or something comes up. Not everyone has a smart phone and access to email from their car.
I have missed her FAR more than I have seen her....when we connected,it was incredible.....but 2 hits,8 excuses,and 2 NCNS, I have moved on. I have a VERY strong feeling she double or triple books, that way she gets hers, and oh,we'll to the rest of us.......there is more,but not for this thread......
I was there once seeing the person she shares the space with and while Gigi was in session with someone, someone else was banging on the door trying to see Gigi. He left a note and was not a happy camper. She definitely double books.
As long as you both have a way to get ahold of the other once an appt has been
made, that's what matters. As long as it works for both sides. And that is a
good way to do it Trinity. Makes sense to me.

I am here to say that you never know what is going on in a providers personal life although yes you should be more respectful when it comes to cancelling and atleast let the client know. there have been times in my life where I wasnt able to do so. Most people wont understand that. Just know sometimes there are curtain situations where you can not call and cancel. then once you want to go back and make things right. you have tons of back lash and tons and tons of people all over TER verbally bashing. to the point you just want to hide under a rock. Now i could be totally wrong she might have just blown you off. but w/ such a well reviewed provider i highly doubt that.

In general, I agree with what you say about being understanding, however, in this case, even though the clients who have reported NCNS speak well of her skills, this provider has done this multuiple times to multiple clients and no one has indicated that she has ever tried to make it right. I do not agree with bashing anyone, but in this case the facts, told by multiple clients indicates a problem that makes her unreliable.

I'm only online a couple times a day however if I don't know them I prefer one email with the info i need for initial contact,
the rest is phone & in person. I don't like going back & forth with people all day via email its very time consuming.
I began the previous discussion on Gigi, although it was NEVER my intent to directly implicate her. I was surprised that so many knew who I was referring to when I never mentioned her name--which says something in itself. I received an email from Gigi accusing me of trying to ruin her business. That is the last thing I would want to do to anyone. In fact, I was posting to try and figure out what I had done wrong to cause her to ignore me. To her credit, Gigi did offer to follow up and give me the free massage she had offered after our first (and only) visit. I suggested we wait and let things blow over. Judging from this post She continues to be erratic (and always erotic) in her scheduling. Gigi continue to receive good reviews and deservably so. Although I think she needs to look at herself for bringing all this on, I wish her only the best.

I agree. There are plenty of other massage providers just as good and better. It's why I was not pissed about being stood up. But if we respect and pay them for their time, they should respect our time as well.

You're kidding, right? You have exactly one review, and that review is a glowing review of a massage provider. It's almost as if you WANTED everyone to know who it was.
Good point. It didn't occur to me people would bother to look up who I as reviewing. I'm new to this and think I'll keep it that way. Too much drama.
We need new blood here, yes this one was rough, but honestly this was not your fault. Gigi caused this mess with her poor business habits. Yes, several guys have defended her and as you wrote she has great erotic skills, but it takes more than that to be a success in the hobby. Either way, please don't quit posting and being an active member here. Over time you get used to the drama and can actually laugh over some posts. TER does serve a good service to those of us who want to see hot ladies and like I said, we need you new guys!! You should come to our MN meet and greet boat cruise later this month and meet some great ladies who won't put you through this. PM me for details.
it was as good as ever. Gigi is the Portia of the body-rub world: non-stop, high-octane session with a hot, hot lady!
Yeah, she's dropped the ball a few times, including with me (twice). In both cases, she's made up for it in one way or another. She gets more than 400 emails a week, and has trouble juggling them all. She has also had health issues in her family that have kept her preoccupied, including her father, who lives out of state.
She's concerned about her reputation on the TER boards, and asked me how to handle things. I told her, first of all, not to try to defend herself on the boards, as she'd get eaten alive. I told her, second, to get the free TER membership and go onto the provider board, and ask around for some good software to help her with scheduling. She's also planning on getting together with one of our well-known providers, and I told her to ask this lady for tips, too.
Gigi has a good heart, and she CERTAINLY is not interested in dissing people she's seen before in favor of "fresh meat," as was suggested in the earlier thread a week or so ago. She's just a little scatterbrained, and a bit overwhelmed at her meteoric rise in popularity. She only started in this biz in the fall, coming from a life in the corporate world, and her head is still spinning a bit. She did say that she's had some cases of gents whom one might not exactly describe as, uhhhhhhh, "Mr. Clean," and was conflicted on how to deal with that. I told her to ask on the provider board.
So, my advice: Keep trying. If you get an appointment and actually make it to the session, be a gentleman--and a clean one!!--and you stand a good chance of seeing her again...and again...and again. I will say it straight out: It's definitely WORTH it!!
And, yeah: I guess that makes me a White Knight, at least in this lady's case. So be it. Please save the flames.

I have never had intentions to see ANY message girl or Gigi but if she can't handle that many emails, maybe she needs to raise her fees.
This will cut down on the clients calling her and if she is that good (as everybody is saying) she will still have gentlemen callers, maybe then she can start making a better name for herself....
not making any friends, well maybe Gigi
passed the suggestion along to her...though it pains me, since it'll hit me in the pocketbook! 
But, it's a good point: Supply and demand and all that....
IMHO, that is the problem she needs to fix. The reason so many providers who NCNS get mauled when they come on here is that they get defensive and don't take responsibility for what happened and fix it.
the provider never tries to contact the hobbyist and make it right somehow. So, if that's some people's experience, then by all means they should move on, as many posters have said.
Me? I've seen Gigi five times, and had two other cancellations. Not quite NCNS, since she contacted me (last-minute) in both cases. But, in both cases, she made up for it. So, even with that percentage, I choose still to keep trying to see her, and I do manage to make it onto her calendar now and again. I'm nothing special, physique-wise, but for some reason, she still wants to see me occasionally, and so I keep going, even at the expense of some of the hit-and-miss nature of scheduling with her.
I do predict that Gigi will up her game. She's sensitive to what's been said, and wants to manage better.
But, if people want to move on, then they should. I'm not a one-woman man when it comes to this massage side of the hobby, so here's my little list of faves, in alphabetical order:
Amy
Gigi
Marilyn
Nikki
Payton
Trinity Lake
I've posted reviews of all six, in case anyone's interested. They're all great.
My two cents.

How many times are you going to mention that you've seen Gigi five times? We get it.
Lighten up. I'm chasin' some hot tail this evening. Maybe you should do the same too!
I just saw Gigi. We had a scheduling mishap as I was out of the country and had scheduled quite a bit in advance but she was expecting me on a different date than what we had agreed on. So, she thought I was a no-show but she had just made a small error. No harm. I showed up at the appointed time and was blown away! 
More than anything, I can say that I judge her to be have superb character. She may not be organized, and it sucks if you were a NCNS victim, but give her another chance. I really can't talk her up enough.re
I had a problem with an appointment that I thought I had set up. First, I did show up without a final confirmation e-mail from her so I do not blame her at all for the schedule mix up. When I got there, I saw her outside, which I thought was strange. I walked up to her and she looked a bit puzzled and asked if I was looking for someone. We talked and she was very sorry that I had drove to she her and was not able to make the appointment but she stated that she was having issues with her e-mail accounts (something about having both merging to her). She offered to make things right but I have not been able to get an e-mail or text response. I really believe that her recent issues are from technology and not her. She is a great provider and great person. I hope I can get back into contact with her again.
