Hi board. I have a few PMs hanging in my mailbox and can't read them, I am not VIP. What board is appropriate to post a note for people trying to reach me and provide with my e-mail address? Thanks. xo
You must have posted SOMETHING to have gotten some PMs. Go back to the original message and post, "I think you PMed me but I don't have VIP. Please use myname at domain.com."
.
Even better: spring for VIP. You can buy a month at a time using anonymous gift cards. (Pay cash at the local Target or corner store for a GIFT card, not prepaid credit card. Use that to buy VIP. I don't know the current redemption rates; maybe a $50 GC will get you 37 days of VIP. Anybody got better numbers?

and in her case the NY board would be the proper place to make her post as that is where most of her posting has taken place.
and to the OP, once you get your first review and you link said review to your handle, you will be granted "limited VIP" free of charge which will allow you to make and receive PMs without having to purchase a full VIP membership.
Whoops! I guess I was lostinterland while not thinking to actually check her posts myself.
.
In that case, the suggestion to pay for monthly VIP goes double! It will be very useful to have PM to handle inquiries and to read reviews written by potential gentlemen callers. (You can learn about their likes and dislikes. It can you decide if you really want to meet them.)
.
As GaG said, after your first review is approved and a Profile is created, you are entitled to FREE limited VIP which includes PM. Then let the paid VIP expire.
... once the OP, or any other provider, gets limited VIP by having her handle linked to her profile: full VIP can be very useful for screening and for other reasons. Full VIP allows reading of all info in all reviews. I know many providers who like to read reviews of prospective clients to get insight into how they act when they're with providers, how respectfully they treat them, whether they give fair reviews etc. Also to get a feel for the clients' preferences--helpful if and when they do get together.
And also full VIP allows providers to do research on their Competition, by searching profiles for rates, services offered etc.
I'm sure there's other reasons that providers find full VIP useful; maybe some providers can add their thoughts on that?

There are lots of good reasons for a Provider to remain a paid member with full VIP.

I wrote, "Then let the paid VIP expire." I should have said, "Then, if you want to save a few bucks, you may let your paid VIP expire and still have limited VIP with PM privs."
