   uggg---- what are they talking about?

it says something like picture must match text in add?
does that perhaps mean something like if your add is for massage, your picture must also look like it it for a massage?

It wont let you RE-POST your ad, you have to make up a whole new ad, they will charge you $5.oo which is no biggie, but what is a pain in the ass now, is waiting for your ad to get accepted.

Plus your ad you do only last for 7 days, then you have to do it again

WOW IS RIGHT!! And guess what if your ad doesn't get approvded, and gets flagged they wont even put the money back on your credit card. So basically right there.. I consider that FRAUD but for 5 bucks, but imagine your ad getting flagged multiple times, and that 5 bucks off your credit card without no type of REFUND They with the BULL SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was able to repost an existing ad today, however they refuse to accept my Green dot card. Green dot ties your cash up for 10 days in a pending status before returning it. I also tried to post same ad with a different photo, so basically a new ad. My fastest rejection ever,,, just under 3 minutes.

I think im done with CL now, its too hard and too much money if you think about it. I mean yeah, you do get calls from there... but half the time its people wasting your time or asking stupid questions! Your always stressing off of your postings getting rejected, and now if your posting doesnt go through, they keep your money?? I dont know about you ladies but i do well off of redbook alone and i dont need the added stress from CL. Take care and be safe out there ladies!

Yes, I totally understand where you are coming from. I already tried to post one ad, and it got flagged, so Like I say and feel now, they already suppose to shut down the adult services, and cl has more problems these days compared to back page. I know cl is going to loose a lot of business for doing what they are doing now. But you're right about cl, a whole lot of flakes, and immature men who like to play games, but rb does not have that problem, and most my calls "real legit calls" come from rb. Dont get me wrong though I do make $$ off of cl good days and bad days though.

I just read it and this is in regards to the one that said it would only be good for 7 days then you have to start over. It says on there that it is good for 45 days? Damm this whole thing is just really stupid.

Ladies use Eros guide, it is posted and don't have to worry for a month...

Also it is tough for genetic females cause there are so many girls, I have tried to go through CL female for male, it is so much girls...

This is where being tranny pays off a little better, cause there are not as much...

I use eros guide. It is worth the money. You get fewer calls, but they are serious clients and often book multiple hours.

Another good site is preferred411. Cityvibe doesn't get anything and I tried my provider guide for a month and got nothing. The other review boards are kinda lame, except one...trying to get my presence up there.

I hate CL and have just about given up on it. I'm going to focus on improving my web presence in general and place advertising on sites that don't actively hate their advertisers.

Anyone try backpage lately? Last I used it, it was a waste of money. Any improvement?

   So I just recently a week ago got my new ad approved and my new pic up. So when logged into make a new one today I just copied my exact ad that had already been approved last week.

then I got DENIED this morning

so I went to go look at what other girls were writing on their and I notice that everyone who has been approved either states in the ad they offer massage or time and companionship. So I assume when it states to write what you are offering, that you must write what your offering. So I used one of my other accounts and added into it "companionship" so I'm still waitin to see if I get approved.

Yep, I am tempted to post. I have gotten good money from there. I am just tired of this cantcha-dontcha stuff with the ads. Woke up this morning to post and when I saw I had to resubmit an already approved ad, I thought to myself that I don't need this shit in my life.

Plus there are too many cheap guy on there lately, that don't know what screening is, asking stupid questions about stupid shit.

I can't say that you will never see me on there again, but I am definitely phasing CL out of my marketing program and all of you other ladies should too. If the real clients figure out that they cant find anyone on there anymore, they might have some sense and move to a different site.

Don't respond to any unsolicited email from CL. It is almost always a scam.

CL will not send an email asking for any information. In fact no legitimate company does this.

I guess that's why mine got turned down the other day.

DAAAAaaayaAAAM. lol

It is always SOMETHING with that site.

I posted the same vanilla ad I've used for months.

I usually only post it once every couple months anyway.

Same verbiage - same ad - same vanilla pic (half my face/fully clothed with a bit of cleavage showing) and REJECTED.

I was like,
WTF - who or what is driving that monkey-@ss operation????

If CL loses provider advertising, they lose a GIANT chunk of their revenue.

Whatever tweaks they make - they are making only to appease the Attorney Generals fighting for total elimination of the adult section.

It's always Summer at my place! xoxo

   I can imagine what some girls in other states are going through if they depend on cl to pay their bills. Luckily you bay area ladies have redbook to use. My ad actually got appoved...but I'm looking on the ny section and 90% are Asian massage. I don't think a guy is going to go through tons of massage ads just to find one escort. the feedback I am getting from my clients is they really don't like cl anymore either. I wish backpage was poppin on the west side that way we could do away with cl all together. or I wish we had rb in NY.

When I used to work the bay the cl ads were free. I only did outcalls. I would post in San jo, napa, san fran, so san fran fremont, etc. I would be guaranteed to get atleast one two two outs in one of those areas per nite. The only way I was able to make that money was cuz I had ads in all the bay area locations. Now you can only have one ad one area at a time. Now with this posting bullshit you can't work the bay area like you used to.

It looks like some of the recent changes came after some guy calls onto this radio show to make a suggestion about forcing us to 'name' our services so CL takes his suggestion and now the who fucking world has to comply with some new fucked up regulation... just more men dominating women's business.
