How many of you guys have followed a providers instructions on their web site and used their contact form to initiate contact with the lady, and then never heard back from them?

On at least 5 occasions in the past three months I have completely filled out a providers contact form, complete with references and Date Check info only to have it disappear into a black hole.

Usually I let several days go by and write to them via their email address posted on their TER profile and I always hear back from the lady within 24 hours.

Do you ladies ever check those forms?  Do you think your web pages aren't processing them contact forms and sending them to you?

DO you simply get too many respondents that you can't handle them all?

Has anyone else experienced this?

and who will have access to it?

Not me, bro

I *never* fill out contact forms.

I email the lady the information *I* am willing to provide (TER and TBD handles, DateCheck and P411, and a cell number that does not lead back to me) along with a choice of a couple of days and times I'd like to meet.

If I don't hear back I dont' worry about it. She has her screening too, or may just have been busy. Many escorts find that it is better not to send emails back if they can't see the gent, because that is more like a "rejection" and tends sometimes to create drama.

I have no problems seeing the overwhelming majority of the providers I want to see, on mutually agreeable terms with respect to contact and screening.

I recently saw a lady (not reviewed) who, several months ago, I submitted her form and never heard back from her.

I doubt she knows I ever submitted the form.

But getting in touch with her via ter PM worked like a charm.

Great session too.

My advice is to not use those stupid forms.

why I won't participate in data collection.  And that's all it is.  I tried a few times and at the risk of being rude, the ladies who require all that date on a webform can...well, you know.

I do not trust anyone (that I do not have to) with my personal information.

Sending it electronically in any form exposes and stores that information, in some way, to some degree, to third parties who may seem disinterested in its content.

Up until now, legally obtaining server logs has not been easy or common. (Same goes for surveillance of electronically transmitted information. These days federal agencies have been using homeland security laws, which basically circumvents the due process heretofore required for surveillance and obtaining such records, to go after porn merchants. If they choose they could use it to obtain server logs.

I doubt I am now nor I would be under any direct surveillance personally. But I sleep better at night knowing I do not leave a trail of anything that could be “misunderstood” and misused against me. I am a law abiding citizen, but I have too much to loose even from allegations.

I take measures to make sure even my webmail accounts cannot be traced to me. I don’t go to the trouble of spoofing my IP on a board like this, but then again I don’t write reviews. I just talk with people here.

If someone decides to see who’s been visiting a provider’s website. (I know, I know. That is low risk right now. I don’t want my info in a webform database or even a  record of my IP connecting to her site.

Bu that’s just me.

Anything other than my hobby alias, hobby phone, or hobby email... well that ain't happening.  But I will provide everything necessary to verify me "in the hobby" which is all anyone really needs.

Forgive the lady (ies), for some know not what they do nor understand what a website is, let alone customer service. They got someone to slap it together and if they check it, that's a bonus. Most ladies I contact are via e-mail or the telephone, the only mostly reliable sources for getting your request taken. The couple of times I tried the "reservation" form, I never got a call back or even an, "I sorry, I was too busy to respond." Unless you get a response via e-mail or a call back from the lady or a screener within a couple of hours, you might as well move on. I posted a request on a lady's site a week in advance and under special instruction, let a my callback number ad two times I knew I could take the call in complete privacy. Needless to say, zero, zilch, nada. Don't waste your time when it happens again. Go to your next choice.

First, I have had the same issue when trying to contact a lady for a reference on a gent.

Some providers have NO email or phone listed on TER, and I have to use the form. BUT, I'd rather use a direct email, because like you, I do get a quicker response. I respect their wishes to opt for the form though.

Second, some free website hosting sites have a module for the contact form which is set to default as active & must be turned off. I did, and wasn't aware of it until I dug deeper into the hosting.
But I doubt a lady with a pro designed website wouldn't be aware the option is there. In that case, she's either wicked swamped, or the internetz goblinz ate it. lol

Never have. Never Will. No Date. So Be It.

Anyone having semblance of understanding of the Data Backup and Retention Laws ISP's have to follow won't either.

Any half ass Deputy Sheriff can walk in and demand data under CALEA.

Over sea's hosting is entirely different ball game but US can demand and get data from countries with whom US has agreement.

otherwise I don't get all the 'gotta protect myself from the law' type paranoia.  

Unless the ladies form asks you to indicate what type of s*x act you are hoping to purchase.

in the first place.
Sorry, but putting your personal information into a hooker's website is asking for trouble.

There is no black hole. Your personal information is stored.

I never said anything about providing personal information to providers.

What I said
"..I have completely filled out a providers contact form, complete with references and Date Check info..."

References and Date Check information is not personal information.  

Perhaps the word "completely" was a poor choice but that shouldn't have been reason to "assume" I'm sitting here handing out reams of personal information.

I guess another pet peeve I have are those people who have limited comprehension, don't understand what they read and then adopt a holier than thou attitude how much better they are than everyone else.

The post was about Providers not responding to inquires made via their web sites.   It was not about whether I should or any one should submit personal information to Providers.  

Thats a much different question and one I have not given my opinion on.  

So for those who got all preachy and condescending because they "assumed" something that was not asked, are the ones who've made an ass of themselves.  

Especially the someone who felt it necessary to use an alias to deliver the last insulting accusation.

But it appears that I am not the only one who interpreted your OP in that way. It is not a comprehension problem. I know what completely means and I have seen many provider forms. You know, the ones that require ALL FIELDS to be completed.

Look, I am not the one filling out forms and then whining because they don't get answered.

Why don't you ask the providers why you were rejected? They have the answers.

i've always gotten an answer.

i used to use the forms but i now prefer to put all the requested information into an email.

there were a few instances when the response seemed very very slow but it turned out favorably.

it may be best to ask someone (perhaps your White Lists?) if there is any negative info floating around about you? hopefully if so, it is inaccurate and you can recover from that with some help from the ladies you know well.
