Coming back after a long gap: booking again a year or more later

What has probably gone: the old thread

Every booking thread is removed a year after its last line. If your last booking was more than a year ago, the thread that showed you as a returning client has almost certainly been removed. There is no account behind it and no other record of the booking, so nothing is left for the house to check your new message against. In practice that means you are treated as a first-time client for the next booking, and the first booking with the house carries half ahead.

What that means for payment

The door booking, a same-day hour or two at a central address paid in full on arrival, depends on being recognisable as a returning client. After a long gap, the first booking back usually carries half ahead, even on the same day. That means half of whatever the first message asks for, an hour, ninety minutes or two hours. Once that booking has gone ahead, a new thread exists, and from then on the door booking is open to you again on later same-day requests. The page on paying at the door sets out every case.

Erotic massages in Amsterdam after a long gap: the roster

Over a year or two the roster will have changed a lot. Women join the house and leave it on their own schedules, and those who stay may keep different hours. The name you remember may no longer be listed, and there will be names you have never seen. Look at the current roster before you write, and name someone who is actually there. If the name you remember is not listed, it is fine to ask; the reply will say plainly whether she still works with the house.

The rules may have been revised

Deposits, cancellation, rescheduling and the age rule are set out in the terms and the cancellation policy, and both are revised from time to time. The current version applies to your booking, not the one in force last time you booked. The core has been steady: half ahead on most bookings, what is kept on cancellation follows the notice you give, one free move to a date within fourteen days, and everyone in the room twenty-one or over. Read the current terms once before booking; it takes ten minutes.

The address to write to

Booking routes can change over a long gap. A number saved in an old phone from years ago may not be the one the house uses now. Use the booking route shown on this site today, and for anything that needs a record, the e-mail address [email protected]. Do not rely on an old contact that nobody has confirmed recently.

What stays the same

Outcall only, to hotel rooms and apartments across central Amsterdam. Arrival forty to sixty minutes after the booking is agreed. Airport hotels at Schiphol still possible, once the drive out has been agreed in writing. Written bookings, never spoken. The therapist decides what a session includes, names her limits at the start and may decline or end any visit. No reviews on the site, no ranking of the women, no hotel names. The shape of an evening with the house has not changed much in the time most guests are away.

Writing the first message back

Write it as if it were a first booking, with one extra line. Give the address, the date, the hour in Amsterdam time, the length and a name or the kind of evening you want. Then add that you booked before, roughly when, and from which number if it was a different one. If there is any trace of the earlier booking the reply will say so, and if there is not, it will tell you what goes ahead. Either way, you get a clear answer in one exchange.

Starting modestly

After a long gap it often makes sense to start with the booking you know: an hour or ninety minutes of oil or sensual massage. It gets the new thread going, it reminds you how the evening runs, and it sets up the door booking for the rest of the trip or the next one. The longer formats and the overnight can wait until you are sure the rhythm still suits you.

The city itself will have moved a little

Two or three years is long enough for your usual hotel to have been renovated, renamed or replaced, for a favourite street to be dug up, and for the tram that used to stop outside to run a different route. None of that affects the booking directly, but it does affect the message. Give the address as it is today rather than as you remember it, check that the room is actually yours at the hour you ask for, and mention anything about the building that could slow her down at the door, such as a reception that closes early or a side entrance for late arrivals. An accurate address matters more than a remembered one.

A short list before booking again

Check the current roster. Read the terms and the cancellation policy. Use today's booking route, not an old saved one. Expect half ahead on the first booking back. Name someone who is listed now. Say that you have booked before and when. Carry some photo identification. After that, the evening runs as it always did.
