Do most ladies use these screening services?  I hobby, but only occasionally and often on short notice.  It's not always easy to get references in line, especially on short notice, so it would be worthwhile for me to have a screening service.  So, are they utilized and widely accepted?  If so, can anyone recommend one over the others.  Thanks very much.

date check is widely used and makes your screening a snap..  if you see visiting ladies it is especially helpful..  check it out ...

I like preferred 411 and can usually find a great listing in whatever city I am visiting. I'll then crosscheck with TER reviews. In Chicago area, RS2K is the best. I am a member of date check but have not needed to use it much.

Don't know which one is better, but years ago provider required RS2k membership-  I joined for one time fee of 25-  has worked out pretty well

Some local ladies will want to talk to the references listed on date-check.com.

Others (I.E) visiting providers will look up the profile online for last minute appointments.

I have found it handy for those last minute situations.

I am like you and only hobby occasionally and on short notice due to my work schedule. I joined roomservice 2000 RS2K. Lifetime membership for $25 and they charged me another $25 when I changed some info on my profile. It has been great for me. Quick verification. Good luck!

I use date-check lifetime member about $125 ZERO hassels even from "Demanding providers"

I wouldn't be about it GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Girls that I have talked to (including myself) feel much more comfortable and safe with RS2K members.

Date-Check can be sketchy.  For example, a profile that I just looked up has two provider OKs including Anneke.  She said "barely recommend" so I called her.  She told me that she gave him an OK even though she doesn't remember seeing him and can't find him in her schedule because he was so insistent.  I love Anneke, but that pissed me off.

Preferred 411 and TER White Listing are a bit better, but still has some of the same flaws.  Some of these girls don't know their ass from their mouse, let alone who they have seen.  That is why I require 3 provider OK's in order not to require further screening.

I also offer a small discount for people who are RS2K members, or Date-Check, P411 or TER White Listed with 3+ provider OK's.

Date-Check has made several meetings possible for me that otherwise would not have happened.  For some DC was the only referral method they would accept.  

I am not that spontaneous so I cannot vouch for last minute referral success using DC.

The DC referral appears easier to do as it uses button clicks and auto email reminders for both parties rather than emailing to remind a provider for the WL reference.  Some providers I've seen do not wish for reviews on the various boards ( I will ask before I do reviews) which eliminates a TER WL referral, but they are willing to refer me privately on DC - so I have credit somewhere for seeing a provider to use for the future reference.
