Client keeps texting?

[Licketysplitz]

That's way out of order and creepy, the whole intense eye bit(shudder). He is so pushing boundaries by texting whatever and whenever he feels. I presume you have a separate phone? This for me (not only for privacy) but gives the feeling of working hours etc, that I can turn it on or off.  I have just blocked someone this week who I have seen twice in the past, for just dropping the "Hi babe, how are you" text. He has done this multiple times now and never can confirm a day or time, when I reply professionally and to the point asking if he wanted an appointment! A bit like this guy by the sounds of it!

I have the odd reg that texts telling me their golf score or they're having a nice time in Barcelona, how was your bank hols etc but they do go on to arrange a booking with me.

Just hate hate when someone doesn't take our profession seriously by thinking it's some drop a  booty call or flirt for free service!

Yeah I have a second phone for work. Like I said in my post that pic particularly weirded me out as it was at like 8:30am so I was still in bed with my boyfriend. Not to mention that was the 5th text he'd sent that morning in the space of 5 mins after I ignored his texts from the night before. Very odd. Idk how to deal with it other than just ignore him no matter what now. I tried the business approach and his response was 'you're very business orientated aren't you' and it actually made me feel guilty a bit. It's got to a mad level now, I have to admit.

Are you fairly new?  They do tend to target new girls/new ladies in the game, thinking she would be so naive.

Well yes of course you are business orientated otherwise you would be on fabswingers or tinder?What the feck do these blokes think is going on?I wouldn't feel guilty at all.The odd time some idiot has made a comment like that to me I have just said 'Yep and you are clearly fuckbuddy orientated so get a profile on a dating app and good luck to you'.

I wouldn't offer him the chance of another booking, hes been once and now thinks he can string you along like a donkey with a carrot on the promise of a future meeting.
He could text every hour till the middle of next week and he wouldn't get a response from me.
I am every hard hearted towards punters who've proved they're a waste of time especially those who think I'm here to play their silly games

Relatively new yeah, started in Feb, but with an Agency. Only saw this guy a couple of weeks after I started being independent. He was the model client when we met tbf and like I said we got on, and I'm a sucker for a nice guy (no pun intended  ) but maybe I'm too good natured and its a bit of a weakness haha.

Sometimes a new client will go like this in the lead up to the booking which isn't fair on us especially if it is just a measly half hour the booking can quite easily take 90 minutes all in if we answer endless texts perhaps I should change my policy to speaking to them on the 'phone and not booking by email or text only although this does only happen occasionally so it isn't really worth it.

Spending 90 minutes of my time tryiing to earn ?70 really isn't a good way to spend our day.

[BibiofLeeds]

I don't mind taking a booking via text (depending on how it is worded)but I make it very clear I will not play text tennis or respond to crude or sexualised texts and when guys have over stepped this mark they get reminded of this.If they continue I block them.
They don't have any intention of booking they just want free attention.
Anything that does not say something like 'Hi Bibi,I would like to book a 30 min GFE on 16th June at 1pm' either gets ignored or they get referred to my adverts.

Thanks for the replies, guys. Really appreciate it.
He messages me today actually telling me he wanted to be the best 'fuck you've ever had', I just replied with well for that to happen you'll have to actually book an appointment with me. Then I said I was busy and unable to talk so to just send a message if he wanted to arrange something and sure enough - silence 
He's now blocked on my phone and AW, I can't be arsed anymore.

Reply to every single one of his texts "Please call me to arrange a booking."

He's a cheapskate who has booked you once and now things you owe him free services for the foreseeable future. You don't.

yep exactly ! i get alot of work from respondng to texts really alot but there simple eg if i know what they do for a living and I get a how are you , I respond with a ' great, but may need a winter/summer  service' car dealers. or 'could do with a long arm' Police ( i see a few ) but they are boundaried , not rude but enough to get them thinking , sometimes I say " im great just got out of bath" really works with guys I know , but I never get involved in text rallies , hes  to be blunt having a wank and prob showing his mates !

I never answer a crude text unless its to say thanks for that its the best way to assure you wont get a booking with me ta ta !

then i still keep number with 'shit text' or something similar next to it , because I have had them call and apologies ( sometimes they just dont know how it all work) the voice/manner of call is the most important thing for me
