My question for the board is this I have P411 and VIP here. Do I really need Date Check too? I got one of those free trials from a provider, but I'm having a hard time justifying paying the renewal fee when I have these other two AND I hardly ever use Date Check. Thanks all.

Yet some of them still take datecheck.  

I thought it was odd that someone would NOT have a p411 account and prefer datecheck but I've seen a few to know that they exist.  If I had built up my date-check at the time, my appointment set up would have gone MUCH faster because it took them days to verify me via the conventional 2-reference way.  

I kind of look at it this way, Having just 1 verification service = medicare or obama care.  

Having all verification services = blue cross blue sheild PPO with sugar on top. Everything goes smoothly vast majority of the time. You're pretty much covered for just about anything.  For $125 life time account, I'd rather sail smoothly but I'm thinking it's a personal preference, some might not see any value in it if all the girls they see are through TER and P411.

No reason to pay to renew.In some cities Date-check is used more than P411.
But most ladies are on P411.
With P411 and TER Vip you should be good to go.

I have the same thing plus RS2000.. and figured... why? P411 is a good system that works well..

P411 is so well known and used, if you are getting your OK's there, I think you'll be fine.  

I think, if most providers use P411 and don't use date-check as much, you are better off sticking with P411. This way you only have to manage one account, and also request OK's from one site. The OK's would be consolidated into one click for a provider to verify you, instead of a few here and a few there.  

Because most providers have P411, you're more likely to use that on a regular basis and have OK's within the past six months, whereas a date-check profile with OK's from a long while back won't be useful anyway. (I.e. If you're using providers who don't use that site, they can't ok you. Better to use one everybody uses.)

Sounds like extra work and money if you feel preferred411 is working for you. Why not have it all in one place?

Date-Check has a lifetime membership available for $125.  You don't have to be bothered with renewals, ever.  

P411 requires you to renew every year.

Date-Check does not ask your real name or employment info.  You can be verified if a provider vouches for you, this is the so called "circle of trust" method.  

P411 requires your real name and employment info to do employment screening (a weak form of verification in my opinion because you can provide fake info and still be verified this way) then they claim that they "destroy" this information.  Which reminds me, a wise man once said "Three can keep a secret, if two of them are dead." - Benjamin Franklin

Sorry I just couldn't resist!

If you are a member of P411 and you can't justify paying the DC fee, I think you'll be just fine!

Steph, bite me! JK.  

I decided to renew with DC anyway, lifetime membership. I know it's redundant, but if it makes the ladies more comfortable for me to be verified, ok'ed, and whatever TER does, then it's worth it! Thank you all ...

started with Date Check when a provider gifted me, but once I got P411 I found it so much easier and more reliable. Dropped DC
