The Booking:
For my last night in Amsterdam I finally decided to book an appointment for an escort (my first time) at the park plaza victoria. While the companies like Society Service look amazing and assuring, I simply couldn't afford the 700euro for two hours price range. So after doing some research (ALOT) I finally decided to go with Pleasure Escorts. Now Pleasure Escorts, Pretty Escorts, and Angels Exclusive are ALL THE SAME!! I called the four numbers that they all shared from my hotel room phone and none of them worked. I was about to give up when I posted a message on the Pleasure Escort website on a whim. To my surprise 15 minutes later I got an email from Pleasure Escorts and decided to message them from then on. I asked which girls would be available for the night and was told that Sandra, Sylvie and Andrea (Blondes) along with Clarice, Stephanie and Emily (Brunettes) are avalible as well as there being 'more ladies available'. I decided to go out on a limb and ask if Anya, Katrina and Helena would be available as all three looked beautiful and my mind neglected to think that this would be too good to be true for 160 euros (my mistake). Unfortunately I was informed that none of them would be available but if I liked Helena then I should go with Rose. I took a look at her profile and holy shit I was sold, once again I didn't think about it being too good to be true. After I finalized the details and information I waited anxiously for my 1030 appointment. The whole process took about 2 hours of emailing back and forth with the company being polite, accommodating and informative, or so I thought (more on that later).

The Appointment:
"Rose" arrived almost 20 minutes late but I figure these things happen so what the hell I wasn't going to make a fuss about it. As I opened the door I was shocked to see that "Rose" looked nothing like her pictures. Not even a little bit. Rose was an absolute bombshell in the pictures, the person that showed up was a 5/10 who was on the chubby side with a cute face. Now while I wasn't expecting her to look exactly like her pictures I didn't think that it would be a completely different person. I was so surprised that I didn't say anything as she came in. I was stunned that they would send a completely different person to a client. To her credit she really did have a cute face and a good personality, she was nice and outgoing but very business like. At least her personality made the whole event more bearable and at that point I figured what the hell I might as well go through with it now. We talked for a bit then got naked while she gave me a pretty good massage and then a little foreplay and finally she rolled on the condom and started blowing away. After a little while I initiated the sex while switching different positions form the bed to doggy to missionary and finally finishing with her up against the wall. The sex was pretty routine and nothing special as she put on a decent show while not going over the top with the moans. While in missionary I actually saw her look at her watch a few times and I actually thought it was pretty funny. I wasn't paying for GFE and at that point I lost interest and was just trying to finish. After the whole ordeal was over she got ready and then we bid each other farewell as I went to shower. Honestly I found the whole experience to be extremely underwhelming but I guess you get what you pay for with escorts.

Aftermath/Thoughts:
What pissed me off the most about the whole ordeal is that when I was messaging Pleasure Escorts I specifically asked them THREE TIMES if the girls profile/age/picture are up to date and that they are actually the girls in the picture. The cock head that responded said the pictures are up to date while there could have been some small changes...... I wouldn't call a completely different person a small change. I honestly tried to make the best out of the situation and to enjoy myself, I even paid her an extra 50euro to go down on her (BIG MISTAKE) cause Im pretty into that. I guess that it is my fault for being naive but I would never use Pleasure Escorts again. There is simply ZERO trust. I should have gone the RLD path as there are some seriously hot girls there and I could have had a better time for less money. Seriously regretting it now in hindsight as I don't know when I will be back in Amsterdam. Afterwards I was looking on the Pleasure Escorts webpage and discovered that they had actually sent me Ramona. Although the Ramona that showed up didn't look NEARLY as good or as done up as her pictures and was chubbier. I guess it could have been worse but overall it was a pretty disappointing experience, its a safer bet to just goto the RLD where you can see and talk to the girl beforehand or you could always arrange for them to come back to you room if possible. At least this way you KNOW what you are getting. The only escort site that seems to be legitimate in every sense of the word is Society Service. They seem to really put in a comprehensive effort in being the best escort service available. I would have loved to use Society Service if I had the cash and if you are looking for a great escort experience or GFE, PSE then go with them, it seems to be worth the price. I have tried to find negative reviews of them on the internet and by talking to people in the RLD and even the hotel concierge and all agree that SS is the best. Im not trying to advertise SS, it really just seems like they are the best overall with great service and very attractive you get what you see girls. I have actually talked to their agency before and found them to be extremely helpful and truthful but I had to cancel because I just couldn't afford it. Although I should take the fair share of the blame for my shitty experience I just want to warn people who are looking into this company that they can't be trusted but this is just my experience. Maybe you could luck out with them and have a great time, there are some reviews on this forum that would suggest so. If your just looking for a lay and don't really care about the quality of the time or girl then by all means go for it. If you want a good time with the attractive girl that you see in the picture then your better off going to the RLD or spending more money on Society Service. Anyways best of luck to those out there who are searching, I hope this helps

SIDENOTE* After looking through more forums it seems that Sandra on Pleasure Escorts is legitimate. She does turn up a good amount on this website although i can't confirm that it is the same Sandra each time. Personally I wouldn't use this company again but if you want to Sandra seems like the safest bet. Im pretty sure that she also does work for other agencies.

Sad, but hardly the first story of an agency ripping off customers.
It's not like they are going to admit
"All the attractive women are on vacation. We are only left with a toothless grandmother and the cat."

Dealing with the independent escorts is easier. They only book themselves.
There is no mystery about who will show up, and the good ones are very, very good.
NONE of the escort services, in my humble opinion, are above this kind of trick.
If you book through a service, they ALWAYS get their money. You MIGHT get the girl you want.
Or you might get the cat.

Weasel

Thanks for the info and agree with weasel would always go with independent ones as its their business in the end and no one takes a percentage although there does seem to be a lack of independent escorts in Amsterdam

Well I had a fairly similar experience tonight with Amsterdam Escort Hotel. Sorry to hear that happened to you but makes me feel slightly better than I'm not the only one who got scammed. Big learning curve.

I haven't used an escort service in Amsterdam in years; the euro made it very expensive, and believe me, among a few gems that actually showed up at my hotel, there was plenty of bait-and-switch during the much cheaper guilder days in the 1990s, including women who wouldn't do things they accepted payment for, such as anal.

I noticed that some escorts now advertise on Backpages. Do these ads tend to be ripoffs too?

Really appreciate this. Thank you very much.

Going to Amsterdam again soon for business and very curious about this. Have been to the RLD a few times but never experienced Prive or an outcall - would prefer to find highly rated independents but always concerned about scams on Backpages..

There actually is a Backpage Amsterdam. There seems to be a rule against posting rates, which is of concern. As with all these ads, some photos seem real, some are obviously taken from other sources and are too good to be true.

I haven't used outcall in Amsterdam since 2000 or so, and there was some bait-and-switch amongst some real gems. A pro in NYC whom I was once friendly with told me if the girl doesn't "cooperate," call the escort service right away---few businesses want bad raps, even underground ones as in NYC.

One thing you may want to do if you don't mind having a girl twice is giving your contact info to them in a prive or club when you're alone; some girls are happy to freelance at a decent discount, as they get all the take.

Whatever, I'm bookmarking sites that offer one hour at 145 euros. If it's hit-or-miss, I'd rather be disappointed at a cheaper rate.

Thanks for the response, tried looking into "Kinky NL" but the bad user interface and the terrible english to dutch translations make it a tiny bit tough.. Some of the girls on Amsterdam Backpages look way TGTBT though..

Anyways, about a week and a half until I head off so still some plans to put together, let me know if you come across anything great ;)
