For the second time in two weeks I've had a traveling lady decline to see me due to my inability to provide a local reference.  I generally see agency ladies and to my surprise these agencies do not provide references!  (:>(  

Ladies, are there alternative proceedures that I could suggest to satisfy their legitimate security concerns?

Frustrated in Philly

Rick6531,
Have you considered asking any of the ladies you have been with (through the agencies) if they would be willing to provide you with a reference? Ideally, that would allow a direct contact.

Alternative Suggestion: (which might not work with everyone). I have a photo of myself and a very well known PS. The photo was clearly taken in a home (or a large, expensive-looking apartment). We're laying on a bare rug in front of her fireplace. We're also "bare". (yes, I also provide the ladies e-mail and cel #, but she doesn't answer her own e-mail).

I supplied this photo to two providers...who asked no further questions and accepted the appointment. (One of them wanted top meet my friend)
Good Luck,

I would look for independent sp's that didn't ask for references. And arrange a session with them and ask after words if you could use them as a reference. Go to erosguide.com, there are plenty of sp's in the Philly area. Some don't ask for references and they list a phone number and email address to contact them by. Once you've had a couple of sessions with a couple of providers, then you'll have your refers. But ask these ladies first before you call on other sp's. This should work. This is something I had to do. good luck.
