Wrong for Thinking about 60mile drive
[QUOTE=Propilot; 1522412]Gentlemen, I called a provider and told her that I was on my way but I had a sixty mile drive and it would take seventy five minutes with the traffic to reach her hotel. I asked her for the room number and she told me that she only gives out the room number when the client is there at the hotel. I asked her what difference would it make. She said that it was for her safety and security. She declined to tell me the room number, so I told her that I was not going to waste that much time and gas if I was not 100% sure she was going to be there. I turned around and went back home. So I ask, was I right or was I wrong?

Her SOP does not make sense to me.
[QUOTE=Masonm;1522426]I think she was only operating according to S. O. P. Her system may involve giving out room # across the hall so she can see who comes calling. If there were no other red flags, I would have gone forward.[/QUOTE]Maybe I am getting to old for this guys. I cut my teeth under the two call system as the SOP, but what I do not understand is what difference would it make to give the room number at the start of the trip or seventy five minutes later, if I am intent on seeing the provider. How does it make her more secure if I get the room number when I get there? I really do not understand the rationalization. Also if a provider purposely had me knock on a occupied room, that she was NOT in and I disturbed the occupants, I would not want to see her because she has just shown that she is disrespectful of other people's privacy.

A phone number is also good
[QUOTE=Green Machine; 1522431]Since many of these BP posts eventually go away, the links end up being dead ends without reference photos. Can everyone try to post the pics from the ads so that there will be a saved record of the provider being discussed?[/QUOTE]These posts are indexed by Google fairly quickly, so Google searches of phone numbers bring up reports here.
If an ad is expired, copy the ad URL and paste it into Google, then search. You can often find the old ad in the Google cache, which is accessed by hovering over the result, clicking on the arrows to the right of the result, then clicking "cached."
I've never had a girl give me the room number in advance

Holding back the room number helps them prevent someone from showing up at the door when they have someone else in the room, or are otherwise not ready. In theory, someone could make an appointment, then call from home claiming to be at the hotel, and get the number. In practice, most guys don't do this, so it seems like a reasonable way to control traffic at the door.
Giving a room number across the hall is insane. I've never heard of that practice. After the second visitor, the guest across the hall would call management, who would make inquiries as to her frequent male visitors knocking on other doors. Some girls may send you to the floor, then have you call again, and some might even wait to hear your voice in the hall before giving the room number. Still not foolproof, but reduces the number of shoppers who get the room number then bail out without making the drive.
Pilot, if you're not certain that the girl is reliable based on intel, your best bet is to research globally, hobby locally.
