Most providers won't see you without screening you. With reviews, screening becomes a lot easier and faster. All they have to do is check out the reviews you've left, and the responses to those reviews.
I'm on the north side of 60yo, Asian and in the Medical/Healthcare field. I started in this hobby in 2011, during the times of RB.
Before SESTA/FOSTA exploded, I was an active VIP member of TER, ID # 1924858. I was on the TER White List. I was also active in nightshift.co. ID # 15502. My handle is gr8trugent in both of these sites. If you can still access these, specifically TER, you'll be able to find numerous reviews I've submitted for providers and posts in fora in which I have participated.
I also used Slixa, ECCIE, Humaniplex, Eros, TNA Board but not active in them. I was on Date-Check but I let that lapse. I guess most of these websites are already gone and closed down.
I travel a lot and was using TER almost exclusively as a source until this FOSTA/SESTA debacle. Currently and locally in the Bay Area, the sites I use are switter.at and of course privatedelights.ch. I have been using agencies in my travels. These include https://www.xoc.ch, http://touringgirls.ch. These 2 agencies are my mainstays and they have given me permission to use them as references.
To request these agencies, please send them emails and ask for such. Email for XOC.ch is support@xoc.ch. Please give them my handle, gr8trugent and XO ID 4235. For Touring Girl, send an email to girls@touringgirls.net and give them my handle, gr8trugent. Between these 2, XOC is the one I use the most.
Locally, I've also used and been verified by giadonnas.com. gr8trugent is also the handle. I have not used giadonnas for some time, though.
I have not given very many reviews on PD because, as I have said, I travel a lot and use agencies when I do. All my reviews here, so far, are for those I saw in the SF Bay area.
I am verified by amnesia24.net. Just log in their website and use them as another way of verifying me. Here is their message to me. And I quote:
"Providers need only provide your email address in the future on your directory via this link https://amnesia24.net/companions/ to confirm that you are a verified client by Amnesia24.net (AMS)!"
