So I went to get a new one and realized now they have 30,60 and 90 day limits on the cards?! I use to have a trakphone with say 1500 text /100 minutes. No time limits of when I would have to use it.
I only looked in Walmart. Am I missing something?
So my only alternate is Google Voice, which I use to see a lot of posts (not here) form providers "do not text or call from a Google ph# perhaps I can fall back to that for free?
Thanks!

Thanks![/QUOTE]I've started using Textnow (free numbers only). I download when I'm going to reach out to a provider and delete from phone after appointment. When the free number rolls over to a new one, I just pm the provider over on the dwad board what digits I'll be reaching out from.
[QUOTE=KickBoxing;7080995]My buddy ventures off around Renton and Tacoma and claims he caught something but only does bare with BJ. I know it's unlikely you catch something but we go to the same places and now I'm wary of venturing out anytime soon.
Anyone else have any bad luck? That way at least we know where to stay away from.[/QUOTE]Tell him to stop self diagnosing and just go get checked up from a doc. Overall girls get themselves checked out way more than the average person. Chances are low but trying to figure out what to avoid bad luck etc is the wrong way to go about. Wrong hobby if that's the case. You're best bet is just to simply always put on glove.
What is going on over there? What a shit show. It looks like niw you can give positive or negative points based on whether you like what was posted or not. WTF! What a joke 😂129315;128514;128517;.
Tmobile has a 15 dollar a month unlimited text and voice with I think 5 or 10 Gb prepaid plan. I have upgraded my old plan to this. I never gave any personal information ever since I got the old prepaid plan 20 years ago. No questions asked.

Keep your burner in a faraday bag when not in use. Even when it is off. And don't turn the burner on at home or at work.
Pay cash for the phone and for all the minutes you use.
You used to be able to find burner phones where you could pull the battery out. I like those better.
This may be tinfoil-hat-paranoid but better to be a bit paranoid.

There isn't anybody stopping someone from automating the whole process so any cop can hit a web browser and do the work in less time than it takes to order Starbuck's. That will eventually happen.

If you are trying to hide your hobby from private detectives or divorce lawyers you should be at least this paranoid.
If you are going to the trouble and expense of purchasing a burner phone, it makes sense to do it right. And a faraday pouch costs about $10 on Amazon. And the rest of it (paying cash, being careful about where you turn your burner on, &c) doesn't cost you anything. So the added expense is tiny.
Oh yeah, a bonus tip to cover your ass with a suspicious spouse: get a property sticker from work and put it on the burner phone. Leave it under the passenger seat and when / if she finds it you can tell her one of your coworkers lost his work phone some months ago. You can get property stickers on Amazon too (but they cost about $50 for 100 of them).
I just got a text from a 607 number on my texting app. Numlookup says that number is also voip. They're advertising 2 locations: the days I'm in Lakewood, and the 11000 block of NE 10th st in Bellevue. Has anyone had any experience with this group?
Each of us assesses our risk and fears differently. For some, it's the specter of an SO finding out. For others, it might be the fear of an employer finding out. And there are those who fear legal consequences.
In terms of the latter, let's be clear that a gross misdemeanor isn't nothing. But the big daddy of charges, when encountering a sex worker and sharing our experience, would be the [B]Class C Felony[/B]; in Washington, promoting prostitution in the 2nd degree [I]is[/I] a felony. Some here might recall Uncle LEO's pursuit of the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. The government went after the big fish, and I'm hopeful that's all they'll ever do, other than the occasional local law enforcement sting here and there. (sigh).
My estimate is that I'm too small-time to warrant much notice or attention. And I'd characterize my own precautions as moderate, mitigating risk but by no means eliminating it. I'm okay with that. If you're posting on this board, you should be, too.
I believe that the best way to protect the most people, sex workers and clients, is to legalize prostitution. Until / unless that day arrives, you might do well to adopt at least some strategies to reduce negative outcomes.

Has anyone here ever had a manscaping session with a provider?
Which provider did you see?
What was the experience like?
