Just curious to see what people’s thoughts are on this because over the last 3.5 years I have done this & had a PERB ad as a supporting member I see people not using the tools here, not taking advice given, or using the knowledge here. I see people booking with people who others post and warn about, which can be avoided if people use the search tool here. I see people warning of scams with people replying with “did she look like her pics?” Or other questions when the reply should be to avoid the scammer.
I have seen many members posting advice on here about ways to avoid scams, how to contact providers, red flags to avoid and more. There’s a lot of great advice and knowledge on here and even with a longer thread one only has to search key words to find this information.
This website is such a great tool and resource for anyone seeking to book our services, but I am always perplexed how so many who have membership here does not use these things. I just had someone who saw my PERB ad, is a member here and wanted me to phone call verify that I’m legit, and ironically are contacting me from a texting app, but a quick PERB search, and the fact my ad has been running here since 2022 shows I’m legit.
I just thought I would post about this here to maybe get people’s views and opinions here. I’m always open to learning and thought this could maybe generate conversation that can be helpful and constructive, maybe shed some light on each side of providers and clients? Thanks.
