I'm assuming you had a mobile tel. number.

In future, get a landline no. and then check out that it is registered to him, you will then have full recourse in the event he cancels.

Not to take these very simple and basic precautions is foolish.

Yea Im with Mr M here.
At what point did you think it would be alright after hearing he wanted to wank ??

A case of oh well and move on I think.

Im Sorry to hear this ever happening to someone-its not just the money,but all the time with it! The Creep!... Marcus point about having a landline is imperative,as a mob.no can just be switched off or a different sim number put in.... as he obviously isnt gen, you wont get your money back... tho in a way, your lucky as it COULD have turned out worse.....

Note, if it's a private collector with no references, get the travel paid in advance.

If he's on my site, let me know.

lol thats the funniest thing i ever heard. You've only got yourselves to blame after going ahead despite recieving uninvited pervy text messages.

Was he definately a tog, private collector or otherwise?

Nothing excuses what happened to you, but don't go blaming this person just because he was a private collector (or so you were led to believe). You have been treated badly by this person, but the nature of what he was booking you for is irrelevant. Whether he wanted to w@nk during the the shoot or just shoot some arty farty stuff, have no bearing upon his no show. I guess the w@nking could have at least been mentioned when the initial enquiry was made by this 'tog', then you could have decided to decline at the very start.

Maybe it was someone (male or female) just pi$$ing about. Well, clearly they were!

This kind of thing cuts both ways.. how many times do models, professional or amateur, put in no shows?

I have paid for a model's travelling expenses, in advance before, and she never turned up..

All I'm saying is, there are good a bad togs, along with good and bad models. Just don't label all w@nking amateurs as.. well.. w@nkers.. LOL

Naturally, whatever details you have on the person concerned, should be passed on to anyone that wants to know.. this person should be named and shamed.
