I am a member of datecheck.  They do require work info as well.  When I initially joined, they did call me at work! to verify my employment.  Well I am self-employed so when they called my office it was no big deal....my receptionist/secretary didn't suspect anything shady.  But yes, datecheck will require work info and will follow up.

If you don't feel comfortable giving up such information, wouldn't you feel uncomfortable giving info to agencies as well?  Personally, I stay away from agencies.

Looks like you'll have to find a provider who doesn't screen and then use her as a reference for your next date.

I have been out of the hobby world for about 5 years now after I was fairly active thru the lates 90's. I have found the desire to venture out for some excitement again maybe 2-3 times a year. When I was an active hobbyist in the DC area, screening was not an issue. It now seems to be the NUMBER 1 ISSUE with many women.

(1) References- Most of the ladies I frequented when I was active are long gone (Fantasy Girl Jade, Amaya, Nynaeve, Taylor of DC, Gia, and others) so when a lady now asks for a reference, I have none!

(2) Employment Info- I see many requests for employment info. I am no longer working (retired in 2009 at a tender age!) but even if I was, I would NEVER, repeat NEVER,  give a provider my work info. That's just insane.....end of discussion.

So.......I have been given the cold shoulder by a few women lately as far as trying to schedule an appointment. The sticking point seesm to be the employment info. Since I don't work, I'm not sure what I can do about that. But like I said, they wouldn't get that info anyway. Do any of you guys give up employment info in order to get a date?

(3) Date Check- I don't even know what this is? I'm assuming it's some data base for screening that stores personal information....Ummmmm, no thanks!

Man, I miss the good old days!

If all you need is 2-3 times a YEAR and not every other week or every other day, have you thought of checking out FKK Clubs in Germany? Don't know what your SPECIFIC situation is, but you should. They are great. I was there last yr and had a fuckin' blast. No references, no drama. Just pure pay for play. You go in the room and bang the crap out of the woman. You come out of the room, and there are 10 more naked ones waiting for you. Your only regret would be that you only have so much "stamina".

Check out the separate section of TER boards.

I and you both know who they are and then make the effort to write a damn review or two. Earn some cred.

I can't just jet off to Europe whenever the mood strikes. By the time I go thru all the necessary work to make that trip happen, I probably will have lost interest! Maybe if I had my own jet.....LOL!

In addition, I have seen vids from some FKK Clubs, and I have no desire to spend time with some cum drenched gang bang girl.

I just don't understand how knowing who I work(ed) for will prevent me from harming an escort? I had a solid rep back in the 90's and usually got to see whoever I wanted just by mentioning my TBD handle.

Oh well...............

Trust me...I'm at loss trying to explain to these escorts and especially some Agencies that where I work is none of their business, and if they were to get busted, would they rather be found with clients' employer information or just fake name and phone number? If I were an agency owner, I would rather be found with latter.

Try with some lesser invasive providers and also write some reviews. This would put you in better position when you call for appointment. The more reviews, the better.

If I remember corectly I don't think date check even asks fo your last name(yeah I might be wrong) but they did give me 2 accounts once, and they need no work info I did see a gal on the site maybe that was why. I also got rs2k and I am unemployed ya know alot of gents are retired, when they call your employer they just ask if you work there kinda like the loan officer at the bank, doubt if any one will remember after the conversation. Remember if you see a lady that screens(usually the only ones worth seeing) the better off you are, her saftey=your saftey it's the only way to play.

I am also coming back after a long hiatus and most of my contacts have disappeared.  I think there are two avenues to reinstatement:

1) initially see some less discrete providers to establish yourself.   Some are not so picky about verification and may take your past history on TER.  I avoid providers that are not thourough as I am concerned about being compromised, and a indiscreet provider may attract the attention of LE.   Anyway once you have some current references your prospects will improve.

2) use a verification service.   I used p411. Even though I am whitelisted and have one provider who is still around and will vouch for me, it was not good enough for some of those special ladies I wanted to see.  The were demanding two CURRENT references or Datecheck/p411.   I opted for p411 cause it is based in canada and i figured less chance of US LE involvement.   P411 did call me at work, and I work in a sensitive position, the call was very discreet and did not cause me any concern at all.   P411 claims to destroy verification information once confirmed, but YMMV.  Once verfied by P411 I found appointments a breeze.  

Good luck to you

Nice post may be, bt333 wil get the hint.

BT, I agree with the date-check route, i've been a member for years and never had a problem. you don't want to play russian roulette with unverified, no review gals on BP or Eros, the ladies want the same thing as you..... safety. good luck
