I have been a hobbyist for a while now and have not encountered bait and switch until recently. The girl I net in the room was not the girl in the pics. Hair, Face, and Physique was different. Is it considered bad form to just tell the provider that I'm not interested because she does not look like her pics or nor the same girl? I ended up staying even though I was slightly turned off and had been anticipating the girl in the pics. The session was rushed. She did not let me stay for the full session and I left feeling ripped off. I could have paid much less for the service I received. How should I handle this if it were to happen again?

ok, sometimes B&W works for the best, and most of the time its a total disaster. Most of the times, in my experiences, it has been a disaster. So, I will only comment on my experiences. Okay, we as hobbyist search for providers we see, and that is who we are expecting to see. Our minds are stimulated and we are mentally prepared for our encounter with that specific provider.

Now, I haven't done this in the past, but now I have to because I found it necessary to do so. If a provider does not have a review, if she is not working for an agency, and if she post on BP or something of that nature, I always ask if the pic is real, and specifically tell them to be upfront or I will leave when I show up. If its not them, they will be honest with you if you ask them, they are not offended (some girls want to keep their identity a secret). Some girls will hang up, don't be disappointed, that saves you time b/c they are fakes. Sometimes, they will describe what they look like to you on the phone if its not their pics.

Ok, now suppose they have blatantly lied to you, even when you mentioned that you will leave when you show up. Okay, so you arrive. In my experiences, if I find that I am not attracted to them, I simply tell them that they look nothing like the pic & lied about it, and simply say, "sorry, this is not gonna work out" & leave. They can't do anything about that. They can't force you to do anything you don't want to do. In some small instances, if the provider wants to give you a hard time & ask for a cancellation fee. Simply tell them, "you need to reimburse me for my gas and time", and get the hell out of there. Its usually nothing more than that, ain't no body gonna stop you from walking out, & its nothing new. If however, you find that you are somewhat attracted to the person & have even told them they lied about the pics, sometimes its a bonus. B/C, once I tell them that, and I find myself somewhat attracted and need a release, ask them for a discount or you will leave. From my experience, it usually works out & they will give you a discount, and they always seem to perform a bit better too :)

I found out that it only benefit the provider if you take these measures, b/c it will ensure their honesty in this hobby. Don't be afraid to ask them under those three conditions (more if need be), and don't be afraid to tell them in person either. They ain't doing you a favor, your the one doing them a favor by them luring you into their spider web of deception. Anyways, its not rude.

If not, they should be now.  Go ahead and write a review and don't spare the details as you have expressed them here.

If she wasn't reviewed, next time only see gals who have several glowing reviews and you'll avoid this scene.

Bait and switchers know that some customers will not put up with their scam and will summarily send them away. No problem. They factor in a certain amount of that.

However, they also know that enough customers will feel obliged to go along due to either horniness, feeling intimidated, or wanting to be polite and avoid offending the stand-in with rejection. They prey on less experienced hobbyists for whom the world of escorting is somewhat sinister and mysterious. They want you to believe it would be "bad form" to exercise your basic right to hold them to their side of the bargain.

If you ordered filet mignon in a restaurant, and the waiter served you a chunk of Spam, would you consider it "bad form" to send it back? Would you quietly eat it and pay full price? Same situation.

Last year when I was just getting started with P4P, I called on quite a few girls on Backpage whose pics looked TGTBT. I stopped asking them if their pics were real, because it's a lose-lose question. If they are real, your suspicions will set a poor tone, and if they're fake, she'll lie anyway. Besides, most of them claim "100% real pics" in their ads.

The third escort i ever saw turned out not to be the girl in her pics. However, she looked good to me, and she greeted me with a very friendly kiss and grope, so like in all those aggravating-to-read reviews, I stayed. I had what at that point I considered a good time. When I challenged her about her pics, she insisted they were her with a different hairstyle (which was ludicrous), then told me she hadn't seen the ad and that somebody else must have mixed up her pics. This girl actually had a couple of reviews on TER, and her profile had said her pics were real. I PMed her reviewers, who both said on second thought she did look different, but since they were both blond with big tits, they didn't think it mattered.

BTW, I saw this same girl a few weeks later when I answered a completely different B&S ad. This time, she looked seriously strung out. So much so that it took me a second to recognize her. But by that date, I knew better and wouldn't have stayed no matter who the substitute was.

Other times, it was instantly obvious that a totally different girl was answering the door. When I'd say sorry, I expected somebody else, she would always absurdly insist that they were indeed her pics. I tried to say that she could do better by playing it straight and stop wasting both of our time. It just invited more pointless argument from her, desperately trying to cajole me into settling for disappointment.

Talking never got me anywhere with a B&S. Perhaps it's possible with a girl who uses "representative" pics supposedly not to deceive, but to maintain privacy. I've never met such a creature.

Here's the bottom line for me with trying to compromise with them: It's not a question of whether the girl who shows up is do-able. If she's not the girl in the pics, she cannot be trusted to give good service. Just don't do it.

First, you have to understand that some girls do not want their pics posted. In an ideal world they'd simply blur out their face. But whatever.

When you become seasoned you'll easily be able to tell the difference between a real pic and a stock photo of some random chick. Here's my take on the whole situation. Regardless of the pic, the description needs to match what I see.

If she says she's 25, 5.4 and 120 then she's better not be 40, 5.4 and 170. Do not reward blatant liars with your business. I have rarely had to leave because of bait and switch - 2 or 3 times maybe - but in those cases I never walked in. When they opened the door it was enough for me to bail.

There are many factors here. One of money. Just know that if the rate sounds too good to be true, it likely is. Be prepare to expect the unexpected. But my tolerance goes down when I'm paying what I consider to be a premium rate.

Walk away, walk away, walk away!! As long as their are gentlemen who will stay in lieu of the pics NOT being the girl, they will continue to be able to get away with it....

I agree with the walk away issue.  However, in order to avoid problems it is sometimes a good idea to meet at the bar at a high end hotel.   When you do that, you can salvage a situation in a professional way.  Buy both of you drinks.  Pay the bartender and leave a tip on the bar.   Excuse yourself to go to the bathroom.  Leave and send a text indicating that no offense but you do not seem to be the person I saw in the ad.    At that point, she cannot really do anything to you.    

This is why it is best to visit high end ladies who are staying at high end places.   This lessens the chance of the painful bait and switch.
