Your last review is bad, I find it hard to believe that he made all of that up, what would be his reason for lying ? Also I don't see anything in his review that violates TER guidlines.
Review guidelines
* Be fair and honest in your reviews -- this is what the providers do for a living. Try not to be swayed – for good or bad – by any emotions you may feel immediately following an encounter as your feelings may change over the next day or two. FAIR WARNING: We will not post any review that slams or denigrates a provider, nor will we post reviews that contain such derogatory terms such as: cunt, bitch, slut or any other wording that we deem inappropriate or hurtful. TER has created a community where hobbyists can help a member find exactly what he’s looking for – or warn someone away from a provider that doesn’t look, act or perform as advertised.
* In order to keep our performance ratings consistent, we set up the following system: An escort provider is only eligible to earn up to a 7, unless she is willing to perform one or some of the following during a session: Kisses With Tongue, Bare-Back Blow Job, Really Bi, Anal Sex, or More than One Guy. For each of these services that are offered, her potential max score is raised by one point, with 10 as an absolute maximum. This does not mean she earns extra points for offering the service(s); just that she is now eligible for a higher score. Her maximum eligible score is based on what is offered, not what is performed during your session with her. You may or may not be interested in the “extra” services she offers, but the fact she offers them makes her eligible for the higher score. Remember, it’s your review; within these guidelines you still get to decide what her score should be. If your review rates a provider higher than her maximum score, the score will be adjusted down to her maximum.
There are several reviews on my profile that go against the rules stated above.
In all honesty more was expected from the reviewers many of whom have given lower marks than the service provided to them earned. It's very unclear as to what the reason for this is. TER has also not adhered to its own guidelines and so it's difficult to expect many of its participants to. I have personally never been a fan of the review culture and am a much bigger advocate for privacy and discretion.
I have written to TER to highlight these discrepancies and am considering having my profile removed completely.
Thank you to those who wrote honest reviews based on performance and services provided.
I think you're being overly sensitive about your reviews. Clearly the last one is "over the top" absurd. Based on all the other reviews, and all the others to follow, this guy will be shown to be the asshole he is. As for the others, I don't think you can complain because you didn't get all 10/10s. Reviews are subjective and some guys just will not feel the chemistry you believe they should be feeling.
If I was in your area, nothing about your reviews would prevent me from seeing.
No one likes a whiny hooker, just like in all fairness no one likes a whiny John.
Whining about a review, especially by a hooker who already seems to be a rather YMMV date in the first place will chase off more business than the review itself
Maybe you are confused on how the system works?
Just because you provided a service doesn't mean you automatically get points for that service. Services simply count toward the score you are eligible to receive. The score the reviewer gives you is subjective and bases on their perception of the experience. So if someone felt their experience was a 3/10 for example, they can award that score, even if you provided dfk, bbbj, etc.
You can certainly request that TER remove your profile if you choose to.
Personally I like reviews. I find it interesting to read my clients' perspective of our sessions. When I started in this industry I read tons of reviews to learn about men's likes and dislikes. Not to mention I always see small spikes in my business when I have a new review posted.
Thank you for that response.
And while it has been said that us men might be thinking with the little head, keep in mind that many of us are here thinking with our brain, trying our best to engage in P4P safely and smartly. Some of us do our homework, and we like to help other hobbyists out as well in the process. Consumer Reports and Angie's List just doesn't have any info on this!
As far as reviews go, there's a number, and there's the written review. What if a provider offers Greek (7 + 1 = 8) but someone did not take a trip to the islands with her 'cause it's not his thing? Or what if someone prefers CBJ for safety? What score should the rating be for the service that THEY went for?
Reviews are subjective- let them be that way. If things need to change, it's the TER system, not necessarily the men writing the reviews.

a whine. Okay, your last reviewer gave you a dishonest 4. So what? You need to give us hobbyists a little credit that we will not rely solely on this one bad review when deciding whether or not to see you. Its an outlier, and would be ignored by most experienced hobbyists. Suck it up babe, its part of the business.
Just how do you know her last review is a "dishonest" 4. From the text of the review he was not a happy camper and could have easily given her a 2 or a 3 instead.
I have no idea if the review is truthful or not, "most" of her reviews seem to be pretty decent, but she does seem to be a rather YMMV kind of gal. I have no reason to disbelieve this review just because she is whining about it. Overall she has a lot more positive reviews than negative, but there is no guarantee this is an outlier, it could be the start of a new trend. Her whining about it makes me even less likely to ever book with her.
An honest review, so I'm just agreeing with her premise for the sake of making my point, which is that it doesn't matter.
How do you know what she "inferred"?
But that does not mean she's entitled to them.
If we do all of the extra stuff we CAN get a 10 for performance, but we can also get any number between 1-10 even if we do everything on the list.
I haven't seen anyone mention that yet.

Your reviews seem good to me. I'd see you if I was in New York. Seriously, though, I haven't seen a single woman's profile on here that doesn't have at least one negative review in it. When most of the reviews are good, the negative ones stick out and tell us more about the guy who wrote it than the woman being written about.
If you want to delist go for it!
All reviews do is make the provider think she can demand more money than what the market says her time is worth.
Sorry you got reviews you didn't feel were fair and your feelings were hurt. Criticism, fair or not, always hurts and I imagine in a job like yours, where every trip into the office means giving some of yourself, it can be doubly bad.
That said, I'd urge you to use this as a learning experience. Especially if the reviews are unearned
- Going forward as part of screening you can look at reviews and if you see a guy who always gives really low scores, just don't see him
- Think about reaching out to the guys who gave you bad reviews (fair or not), apologizing and offer him a free 30 minutes on another session (you could also offer a cash discount, though you don't want to make that a habit) if they'll re-review you. If they are coming back, chances are they'd give you a better review. And if you are gracious about it, you'll also make them feel important, which is always popular with guys
- Look at other girls in your price range and market who get high reviews and try to figure out what's different. You kind of have two jobs - one is sales, the other is service. Don't think about right and wrong or approach the issue from "no, I'm good." Instead, try to figure out what your customer is looking for and how to deliver.
- If you find a reviewer or two in your market who always gives high scores to girls in your price range, think about offering him a reviewer's special (90 min for the price of 60 or even 30, for example). I don't think it's unethical (others may disagree) and it would get your average scores up
By the way - even your blurred pics radiate a really attractive, vivacious sexuality. My intuition is with just a tweak or two you could be nailing super high scores and a ton of repeat business.
Good luck!
Finding other's thoughts, not giving your own! lol
You are assuming she actually cares about fixing the issue.... My take from that was that she's perfect just the way she is and this ignoramus just didn't "get" the brilliance that is her... and why should SHE be expected to be penalized because some low life customer did not have a good time....
Wow - it does make you think, doesn't it
A lot of us have your token bad reviews...You can't please everyone and there are just some people out there who are picky about particular things or having a bad day and decide to vent on a review. I view bad reviews as somewhat of a good thing...If a provider that's been in this business for a while doesn't have at least one bad review than its obvious she's manipulating her reviews. I think most are more comfortable seeing a range of high scores with the occasional bad review than someone who has all 10/10s.
... You first entered my radar 4 years ago. Same pics now as then.
Hi Katie,
As mentioned, offering services doesn't guarantee a minimum score. If the review was accurate then the score seems about right. You look great and your other reviews are good so I wouldn't worry about it too much.
If the text portion of the review is accurate it seems like you had an off day. Being able to fake some enthusiasm is a job skill in this industry and would have certainly precluded the 4 unless the dude was lying. Also, I'd rather not see anyone else milling around, usually makes things awkward. That along with the other things mentioned indicates you were rushed to meet the appointment, probably a little stressed out because of that, and didn't have time to be properly prepared. It happens. I wouldn't avoid you because of the one review but a few 4s in a row would scare me off.

Hi...
A cursory survey of your overall performance scores shows a pretty consistent string of 8s and above, with a few scores of 6 or 7 sprinkled in...this is to be expected as no provider in existence can completely satisfy every client, and not every client is observant enough to ensure every provider he sees fits his preferences...being human is nothing to be ashamed of, nor is it something you should not expect your clients to be...add in the simple truth that everyone has bad days and you are well within the margin of error...
Except there has been a sudden downturn in your scores within the past month...NOT every score, but a high percentage of your November 2016 scores are lower than your norm...so I have to wonder what has changed for you...are you feeling well? Are there issues in your private life that may be affecting your professional performance?
Do you, perhaps, need to take some time off?
You have misread the intentions of the scoring guidelines...the willingness to perform services does not guarantee the awarding of the score, rather it makes you eligible to receive that score...the actual or perceived experience of the client is the deciding factor, not your willingness...
Overall you have amassed a pretty damn good record...you should not allow the less satisfied affect your attitude...nor should you let them influence you into removing yourself from TER...
