I've been a member of the board awhile but I rarely post.
I read, observe, sometimes laugh my butt off & keep my thoughts to myself.

Well, I just thought I'd share my experience.

I've been aware of rumors of certain AR providers NOT giving refs. but I tend to give everyone, every city the benefit of the doubt.

I'm in Jonesboro, got here yesterday and the guys here are awesome by the way! (wink)
This is my 1st visit here, and only my 2nd visit to the state in general.

I have had only 1, 1 provider answer my reference request since arriving. ( and it was exactly 5 words long) lol 1. I've sent out 7 reference requests and received 1 response.

The gents openly expressed that no one new ever comes to Jonesboro, and were genuinely excited to meet me!

Well, now you know one reason why. Though I suspect it's not that big of a mystery.

Just thought I'd share.

If I can help in anyway feel free to give me a buzz my inbox was full this week some. I used to frequent Jonesboro but since the "big bust" I tend to sneak in and out when I visit. Stay safe sweetie!!

Thank you Sydney!

I am leaving today around 2pm. Kinda on board with sneaking in & out! lol

I found ways around the issue of no cooperation to provide refs so it was still a great trip, but wow just wow! lol

Have a great weekend and I will definitely keep you in mind when/if I ever visit again! lol

BabyDallass · 03-09-2012, 01:11 PM

I`m always up for giving refs, calling or texting is best for me. I hope you had a great trip!

Thanks ladies!

I will share this though, 1 of you was a reference for every client I met with.......you didn't answer the first 2 or 3 emails so I didn't bother continuing to ask......as of now you still haven't.

I know we are all busy, have personal lives, have to do a little recon to verify, so I always send emails instead of calling or texting.

I know I prefer getting & giving ref requests by email in case I have to search my phone or emails to verify if I have seen a particular client & I always try to include as much info as I can remember.

Maybe that was my oversight, because I did not text, call or PM but sent emails instead, as I always have, unless the provider doesn't have an email listed anywhere, that's the only time I'll call or text.

But I've never had this experience in any other city I've toured.

Thank you again ladies & I really appreciate the show of support! I really do!

Have a good evening and a great weekend!

Stay Safe!

Ginger Doll · 03-10-2012, 09:34 AM

Sorry about the way you were treated. That's inexcusable!

I'm always available for references.

Sydney Pure · 03-10-2012, 09:50 AM

I hate that Reese!! Don't feel like your alone though. I have a waiting list of clients that only have 1 reference. Unfortunately some providers aren't reference friendly Like they portray.

Had a call today, and all I can tell Him is she's not reference friendly so here I sit waiting.......

Guest041513 · 03-10-2012, 06:01 PM

Sorry to hear that babe , I know how you feel especially when your new to the area..

lots of people say there ref friendly but I think they get the line between GFE and reality confused it is business and we should all be able to be safe

Best way to contact me is by pm on eccie or p411 so I can see who you are before I give out any clients info and then I'm always happy to do so if anyone ever needs a ref

Sounds like someone in Arkansas is acting like a big-ass Baby.

Usually people that are that juvenile have issues that go way beyond refusing to share references. Immaturity on that level can also indicate that they are incapable of keeping proper track of their information...and are unreliable. So, you guys probably wouldn't want her references, anyway. Just my $.02.

+1 GD very true sometimes i just do it to see what kind of response I get. Theres a handful of providers here that when their names are dropped for reference i simply turn the check. All money is NOT GOOD MONEY.

SoReese maybe she saver you some hard ache.

I would like to spend a SPECIAL THANKS FOR THAT REFERENCE EVEN THOUGH I PASSSED.

I understand your frustration! Though I only tour Arkansas from time to time, I have asked for references from Baby Dallas, Ali Kat, and Ginger Doll, all with relatively immediate response. Baby Dallas has even called ME for a reference before

If you tour this area, please feel free to PM or call.... I would be happy to help!!

BTW, for my Arkansas friends, my handle has been changed per mod suggestion for ease of review accreditation. ThickGrlSwag is now Makayla of Missouri

BabyDallass · 03-11-2012, 02:09 PM

Let me make this clear since there seems to be another misunderstanding on here, I ONLY give and accept references from girls I TRUST, and that is a very small list for AR providers.
