...Whatever the reason for your not being able to see his reviews he would still be able to see them by clicking on "My Reviews". He may assume if he can see them there then they are still available for everyone. Though even with a basic membership he could find his reviews to see if they are still posted. He would be able to see the general details.

I have a fella here trying to get verified through here...I asked him to respond to my PM he says he only has basic.  He has no visible reviews but says that he has two...after some juggling he suggested that if I log into classic ter I should be able to see them, but there it still says, "there are no reviews from this user" ...he says his last review is from 2005...is there some kind of time limit on how long reviews can be viewable, or why he would see them and I cannot?  I'm baffled.

When ladies are delisted, their reviews disappear. If this guy only had two reviews and they were from before 2005, chances are the ladies retired and delisted themselves, so his reviews are gone. He might still see them under his own account, but nobody else can see them.

In any case I certainly hope you are doing some other type of verification. If the guy is not VIP, he can't pm you so there is no way to verify him through TER. Even if the reviews still existed, without VIP anyone could tell you "I am xx. Here are my reviews, Here are my whitelists."

Even if he was VIP, and his two reviews were still up, would you really use 7 year old reviews as verification?
You should be looking for current or recent references or some real verifiable info (real name, work, info etc)

Stay safe.

...not entering his name correctly in "Search by Reviewer."  Caps don't matter but spaces and underscores, for example, have to be entered correctly.

Ask him if he's made any posts on any boards.  If so, next to his name it will say: "JohnDoe has 2 reviews."  Click on the '2' if it's there to see his reviews.

Reviews don't expire unless the provider was banned or providers requested their reviews be removed.  Without knowing more, he sounds a little shady.  Don't see him until you can verify him.  It's a little too convenient that his last review was in 2005 because you probably couldn't check with that provider anyway.

If the provider has retired from the business since he reviewed her, the review is removed.

As its seven years ago, there is a very good chance that is whats happened.

Although the reviews may have been removed, it will still say he has two reviews next to his name.

And as you know, if your only a basic member, you will receive a PM , but can not read the content, and obviously not respond.

Thanks everyone...it was not the only thing I was using to verify, I wanted to read his review...he ponied up and bought VIP to email me, but I was curious...makes sense if chica retired.
