A Guide to Escort Agencies and Independent Escorts

So you want to book an escort? Have you use an escort agency or book independent escorts before? A number of factors affect whether you book through an agency or book directly with an independent escort. This article clarifies how to book an escort and the advantages and disadvantages of booking through an agency or directly with the independent escorts.

What to expect when booking an escort?

So you want to ring an escort for an outcall appointment to either a hotel or a private apartment. What details will you need to provide? 

Whether you book through an escort agency or directly with an independent escort, the booking procedures will nearly be the same. They will question for the following information: 

- Your full name. 

- Your hotel address , postal code, room number and possibly other necessary information (if you are staying in a hotel) or if from your home residence (your full address with full postal code and other relevant informations). 

- A contact number. If you are staying in a hotel, usually the lady will need your direct phone number for your room. This is just to confirm that you are really staying in the room. If she is visiting you at your home address, the escort will require a landline number. Again, this is to confirm that you are genuine and also that the escort can get hold of you for directions or if she has any other problems etc. 

- Money upfront. When the escort visits you, she will usually expect the money in cash upon her arrival. It is best to place the money in an envelope. The escort will count the money in front of you to check that it is the right amount. Some escort agencies may offer credit card facilities. 

- Phone calls. Usually when an escort arrives, they may make a phone call to the escort agency or driver or a buddy. This is just another security feature to let someone know what time they arrived and that they are safe. Once the booking has finished, the escort will usually ring the escort agency or driver or buddy again to tell them that she is leaving. This is just a standard security procedure. 

- Remember when ringing for an escort; do not ring on a private number. Escorts or escort agencies usually do not answer private numbers. Give the full details if you want a visit from an escort. Your details are confidential and most escorts delete these details once the booking had taken place. They need these details for security reasons and also to prevent time wasters. They will need to verify that you are genuine before travelling to see you. If you do not wish to give these details, it may be best that you reconsider before calling on an escort or even calling for the services of an escort agency. 

Independent Escorts vs Escort Agencies

Do you book an agency or independent? Below is a basic outline of the advantages and disadvantages of using escort agencies and independent escorts.

Advantages of Escorts Agencies

- Excellent agencies always answer the phone and emails. It is simpler to arrange an escort booking. 

- Excellent for small notice bookings. Escort agencies have many escorts on their books so small notice bookings are simpler to arrange. 

- Escort agencies have a selection of escorts available so you have more choice of who you want to book. 

- One phone number. Just by ringing one phone number, you can arrange a booking with a different escort each time instead of ringing countless rounds of independent escorts’ numbers. 

- Professional, reliable staffs. Excellent escort agencies usually interview all their escorts before taking them on. Every time an escort visits a client, they are representing the escort agency. If they are polite and reliable, the escort agency gets an excellent reputation and perhaps repeat business. If the escorts are unreliable and rude etc, the escort agency gets a terrible reputation and loses clients. Therefore, the escort agency usually only ensures that the right escorts are given the work as its agency’s reputation is on the line. 

- Escort agencies contact details are usually simpler to find online and in the local media. This is because they may have a larger budget to spend on advertising their business. 

Disadvantages of Escort Agencies

- Escorts from escort agencies are usually more expensive. Remember that an escort agency is a business and needs to make money. For instance, if you pay S$250 for an hour, usually escort agencies will take anywhere between S$100-S$125 from this booking fee. Do not reckon that the escorts are being taken advantage of. They agree to this cut before working for an escort agency and they do not have to pay advertising fees and have the hassle of constant time wasters and phone calls. Many escorts find working for an escort agency is the simplest option. 

- You do not always get to talk to the escort directly. Many escort agencies arrange all the bookings and you will meet the escort when the appointment starts. Some escort agencies will only pass your number onto the escort on the appointment day itself and she will call you only to confirm the booking time, place and for directions. 

- Cancellation fee. Most escort agencies will charge you a cancellation fee. 

- Faceless, blurred or inaccurate escorts’ photographs. Many escort agencies use top glamour photographs and have their entire escorts’ photographs taken. Although these photographs are usually real, they are usually airbrushed to magazine standard. This is excellent to promote escorts and looks excellent on a flashy website but sometimes the photographs can be over airbrushed and not give a right representation of the escorts’ features. Some escort agencies may choose to have them advertised faceless, blurred or via descriptions only for confidential and discrete reasons. 

- You do not get any direct mobile number of the escorts. Escort agencies will usually sack any escorts found giving their mobile number out to clients and vice-versa. They are also not allowed to serve such clients in the future too.

Advantages of Independent Escorts

- Cheaper than an escort agency. Usually independent escorts booking fees are around S$50-S$100 cheaper. For instance, an escort, let’s call her Jill, works for an escort agency. She will be paid S$350 an hour. Jill would receive S$200 of that amount. Jill then becomes an independent escort and charges S$250 an hour. Jill will be earning more money than with an escort agency by charging her clients less. 

- You may feel better that the Independent Escort is getting the full amount of the booking fee paid and that the escort is not giving any percentage of the booking fee to an escort agency. 

- More personal contact. When you are calling an Independent Escort, you can have a more personal chat and discuss your personal requirements more freely. No receptionist to talk to. 

- More accurate photographs. Independent Escorts do not usually have the budget to advertise and spend more money on high quality glamour photographs. Independent Escorts usually have lower quality of digital photographs with no fancy airbrushing. This is an advantage. You know that the photographs give an accurate representation of the escort’s features. 

- Regular discounts. There are no set escort agencies fees to charge so many independent escorts offer a regular discount rate. 

- No cancellation fees. Many Independent Escorts only take cash payments and they do not have credit card facilities. Therefore, if you do have to cancel, there are no cancellation fees taken from your credit card. It is polite though to call the escort to cancel the appointment and re-arrange for another time, otherwise you may find that the escort will not take any future bookings from you.

Disadvantages of Independent Escorts

- Independents Escorts are sometimes hard to contact. This is due to various factors and not because they are being idles. For example, due to the very nature of the job, many escorts obviously lie about their working lives. For instance, they may tell their partner that they are working in bar etc. Many Independents Escorts also arrange appointments around family arrangements. When contacting an independent escort, please remember to check their availability stated on their websites or ads. For instance, Jenny may state being only available on Mon to Fri from 10am-6pm. Only contact her between those times and on those days as usually her ‘working’ phone will only be switched on then. Another example is an escort may be walking through a supermarket and cannot exactly answer her phone and talk about your requirements in the queue. Also another factor is they may already be entertaining a client. It is usually best to book advance appointments with the independent escorts. 

- Independent Escorts as the name suggest usually work independently so arranging for a couple of escorts may be harder to do. 

- Independents Escorts are harder to find. They usually place ads on free sites and directories and can be found in the classifieds sites and do not advertise so much in media. This is due to the fact that media advertising can be expensive and independents do not have the advertising budget like the agencies. So you may be crawling through countless websites and classifieds until you find an escort you like.
