Good job finding Ashley BTW!!!  I was trying to get in touch with her today but work got in the way.

I started on backpage...got ripped off...stood up....jumped....so after 5 bad experiences I dont frequent BP...the only good thing about it was it led me to TER. Now, after I made a few post, I finally started listening to ppl on her...thought I could do it by myself...the info and advice you get on here is spot on! BEFORE you do another thing, become a TER VIP...its not a scam to get your money...worth every penny!ou can still find under $300 a visit real women, but if your looking for a 15 min BJ for $75 your only gonna find it on backpage! Good Luck

There is a big difference in a BP 8 and an eros 8.

The bitch I have with Eros is that most ladies post their phone number and email address..I usually send out an email and never hear from them again. I also tell them I am on P411 for references..If you don't have the basic courtesy to reply to an email, forget it. You are right, at $300/Hour one would expect a better business attitude.

I use BP most of the time and have had no problems to date.  I've met around 20 providers from BP, most legit with good service.  With that said I don't just pick anyone, I have guidelines I use like first being attracted to them, right?  Well that's about 75% of BP I avoid, then there's the "too good to be true" that I avoid, there's another 10% gone.  Photos have to look like they're in their day to day life like in a hotel room.  If their photo looks professionally done or in an exotic land somewhere, I avoid them, they're just trying to lure you in for the kill, that's another 5% gone.  I'm only interested in maybe one girl for every three or four pages on BP and half of them don't answer their phone or respond back.  But with the turnover rate of BP, that still keeps me busy.  In the beginning I got taken twice, but have learned from my mistakes and have had about two years of great service. I see a provider once a week, 3 regs and 1 new, each month.  I'll throw down 5 Jacksons for a great hour of my life and I am happy, all from the likes of BP.

Had varying success on BP. Just posted on the newbie board about reviewing the reviewer because of an 8 (multiples) that I would have given a 5 or 6. Like a previous posters there are many things to look out for on BP TGTBT being the worst. Have found 3 great providers on bp but even then it took a good 2 months for me to actually call them. Waited to see how often they posted, if the pics are consistent, etc. With the holidays and the economy I've noticed a few girls that are usually only EROS or p411 users started putting ads on bp. They give little info other than website or email but they are the one I tend to gravitate to. Plus must have multiple reviews spread out over a few months.

Well yah, if you want under a certain price point, BP is certainly the place to find it.

I think as long as you do the same research you would do with any other girl, you will be just fine. I don't think I need to tell you to check for reviews lol.

If you know how to use BP, it is the best source out there.  However, you do need other sources like this one to do your research.  I've lived on there since CL got phased out, and get plenty of good times.  Occasionally I get one that I'd categorize as "not as good as my best", but those are the lumps you take from wanting to experience a large variety.  I still can't figure out what people see in indys, but to each their own.  If anybody has any better ideas please let me know.
