Using burner or VoIP Phones

[strawberrycar934]

I am curious to know who uses VoIP or burner phones. I use a service so that I can have an anonymous line. Lately, I have had a few ladies disqualify me because I used a VoIP.

Has this happened to others?

Who uses their actual phone number?

Is this a scam by an illegitimate provider?

I use a service like Google Voice myself. Never had it be an issue so far but I’m also willing for the right provider to go to whatever length for the vetting process of myself that seems appropriate. For whatever reason I actually feel more comfortable with someone who wants to do their homework then someone who seems not to care. With this hobby I’d rather associate with a careful and meticulous woman.

"Has this happened to others?"

Not to me. A few ladies like to disqualify you for using "VoIP" like Google Voice because it is so easy to get a new number and get around whatever record keeping they have or records they have access to.

IMO it's silly because getting a new "burner" is just as easy as getting a new VoIP number.

"Who uses their actual phone number?"

No one. Really just "noobs" or those that don't know any better.

"Is this a scam by an illegitimate provider?"

No.

I use Google voice also, but I have to admit that a few highly trusted gals have my real number.

So I am looking to log my first encounter, what is the best/safest way to do this. What information is ok to give to providers, you are saying to use a fictitious phone number but at same time the providers want real information, so what is beat way to establish a reference.

Per P411 website - “We are not accepting Client Applications at this time”

That MAY change at the beginning of the year. Nothing is guaranteed and their plans can change.

Otherwise, you need to start with women that are "newbie friendly". Ask them what their screening options are. They WILL be discreet and WILL NOT misuse that information - their livelihood depends on it.

I have a P411 account. The provider does not use P411. Only wants a non VOIP phone number. Seems a bit shady to me.

Yes, definitely.

In my book "a bit shady" would be an understatement.

LE uses VOIP AND BANDWITH service yes I use my real phone number my real information and real pictures I don't lie to my clients I don't expect them to lie to me it's a safety issue I feel should I get a call from either one of these phone providers I absolutely will not except that client whatsoever

Yeah, and they use burners too. Even confiscated burners.

Neither a "burner" cell, nor any number of "VoIP" apps, are an indicator of whether or not someone is a cop.

EDIT: There is no replacement for screening and actually contacting any providers that are being used as references.

Phone numbers really are only useful for an alternative for screening newbies . I don’t know too many gentlemen that use their real cell phone for the hobby .

I just use the Burner app. If certain providers don't want to see me that's not a big deal. There's plenty out there, same goes the other way around, if providers don't want to see certain clients because voip/burners seem risky that's fine too, plenty of clients out there. I do happen to have a P411 though so I typically just see ladys off there anyways and have never had an issue.
