What's the big deal? I use a text app because my main number doesn't give me complete privacy, it's a one-click open window into my entire work and personal life, which I prefer to keep private. There are some SP's who won't communicate with a text app, which is their choice of course. But the question is why not? Presumably it's a safety issue, but to use a text app I need to register it with an email address that is tied to an IP address and a device. I could easily be identified with my text app number. My text app was downloaded using my Apple ID. These connections provide security to whoever might be concerned about a client's identity. One time a SP who doesn't accept text apps wanted to do a screening call to make sure I was all good and called me on my text app, we had a nice call which proved nothing to disprove that I wasn't on a text app! So we had a rendezvous. I was texting with a SP yesterday and had everything arranged but the price menu was a JPG that didn't come thru the text app, so she asked if I was using one (after 5 rounds of correspondence and just making final arrangements). When I said yes, she flipped out, called me up on the app and ripped a strip off me for wasting her time. WTF? I was stunned at the response. I was simply being honest and didn't deserve that! So again, what's the big deal with text apps????
What's Wrong With Text Apps?

As you've indicated, because it makes it much more difficult to establish who you are and makes it easier for clients to hide their identity. What you're talking about may work for a criminal investigation, but it makes it pretty much impossible to keep track of blacklisted clients and everything short of spending months and years of getting data through the court systems. As you've indicated, it's to help ensure a girl's safety through providing better screening methods.
I try to avoid texting apps but I don't always. Instead of coming across shady with a texting app, why don't you switch to email? So many weirdos in this business, it's the little pieces of screening that makes us feel safer. Texting apps doubles the chances of a no show as well
Hi Harmony-BC, ty for making things clear on safety procedures. Safety is the #1 priority in this industry for sure. I just want to mention that ive booked a couple sessions using telegram which is attached to my cel# and is extremely secure for the guys who need to be careful of their home lives. Its offered on a few websites i used. For me i just like it as i can delete everything after and its gone permanently. I travel alot so i dont need the added heat from border crossings. Your thoughts?
What’s wrong with a texting app, is that it signals with blaring red lights thay you are too cheap to get a burner phone. Texting apo is not a real number. Burner phone is a real number you pay for. One notch above primordial sludge. Step up or step out.
35 dollars is pretty cheap, but text apps are free, and you can swap numbers pretty easily without going to a 7-11 or opening up your phone. eSim's are really convenient too but they still cost money still. Nothing beats free when someone unless someone is set on being a troll. With "real" numbers you're basically filtering out the lowest tier of time wasters that don't want to spend any money to switch between 5 numbers in a week. Imperfect but at the rate that providers receive junk texts, every bit lightens the load.
On the other end of the spectrum, pooners use WeChat to interact/receive pictures from micros. Maybe some use a burner phone/Ac for that? But it seems many just use their personal number/ac.
I did used the texting app and the number changes every so often if you don’t use it plus it’s nearly impossible to recover that number, It’s an headache if you are in with an provider. Plus texting apps doesn’t register with WeChat/whatsapp/or any chatting apps. I got a Fido prepaid and it only set me back $15 a month with data/talk/unlimited text and this is perfect, they didn’t ask too much info and I just said it’s for a family visiting, so I don’t see a reason to use texting apps anymore.
If a provider says they don’t accept text apps in their ad or website, but a guy goes ahead and does it, she is right to flip out.
Safety trumps privacy every time.Texting apps require a court order if the RCMP want to trace its origin. If I allow someone to book via texting app, they arrive, assault me, and I go to the police. They have to decide if it’s bad enough for them to pursue beyond the average investigation, and then cross your fingers that the judge feels the same way. But if you booked using a real cell number. There is no issues for the police. Debating the bare minimum to maintain peace of mind? What would your bare minimum be to allow a completely anonymous human access to you in private location, in a marginalized community? We don’t sit around thinking of ways to ruin your life via your phone number.
Every single number that contacts me gets put through two app checkers to identify if it’s a real number, as the first screening tool.
Perhaps the second layer of screening that I didn’t address helps alleviate the “false sense of security”. I don’t post my screening process because it’s different for almost every person. But I guess you've had your ribs broken by someone using an app number? Went through the entire process with the RCMP? I shouldn’t have learn the hard way, nor be worried about assault. I stand behind my safety trumps privacy.
There are certain providers I’ll jump through as many hoops as asked. To me paid providers from here or well reviewed I feel is my vetting process. It goes two ways with trust. They trust us to be gentlemen and show respect and dignity, and I trust the same which includes privacy. Just like ccctv cameras in Europe, I’m ok with it, I’ll give up some privacy for safety. Plus I’m not the type to be ruthlessly breaking laws or doing dumbass shit to begin with (speeding cameras aside). If you have a bad feeling about the provider don’t jump through the hoops. Simple. Get a ESIM if you really worried about another phone being found.
dual sim phones are common.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to litigate… . OP asked a question about text apps. Several reasonable answers about safety and screening. It’s anyone’s prerogative to keep using text apps and risk not landing a booking with ladies whose prerogative it is to decline their use.

Guys who are super paranoid about their identity give off a bad vibe.
Ok, will you hold women and providers to the same standard? Are women who feel anxious and paranoid about their identity considered to be a 'bad vibes'?"
In my opinion, men who have nothing to lose and live recklessly, driven by a desperate need for paid sex and paid female attention to the point of jeopardizing their livelihoods, give off a "bad vibe." Crime statistics seem to back up the idea that these types of individuals contribute to a "bad vibe"

Funny then, that you have to be constantly banned for repeated bad behavior on just such a site. Irony, you haz it.
pleas provide us with your full name. credit card number, sin. all here publicly, bad vibe if you dont
I use my real phone. Nothing to hide.
Using a burner phone can be risky for sp's trying to verify whether a customer is genuine for several reasons:
1) Lack of Verifiable Information: Burner phones often come with minimal or no verifiable personal information. This can make it harder to cross-check and ensure that the customer is legitimate.
2) Anonymity Concerns: The anonymity provided by burner phones can be used by individuals with malicious intent to hide their true identity, increasing the risk of scams or unsafe situations.
3) Limited Traceability: If something goes wrong, burner phones are often discarded or not traceable, making it difficult to follow up or take action.
4) Communication Issues: Burner phones may not have reliable communication.Can be frequently changed, leading to another red flag.
For greater security, it is advisable to use methods that allow for more thorough vetting and verification of customers, such as checking references, using more permanent contact information, or employing secure communication channels. I.E. , telegram, WhatsApp.
