Recently had a similar experience at a small private lodge. Gateman automatically opened before I could call the lady. I got in, parked and Gateman indicated for me to step out so he could assist. I signalled to him to give me a moment. I then called the SP to let her know I'm inside the premises and which room number should I ask for. I then stepped out and gave the Gateman the room number and he directed me.

I don't think you did anything wrong OP, just commenting in general on "gate etiquette" amd relaying my experience. And what's worse in your case it was a private house, so you would expect for there to be a "system" between Gateman and SP. But sounds like you saved yourself a horrible experience given her response afterwards.

I once got the phone switched off by a very popular SP from here right as I was asking her to open for me at her complex gate. I thought it was just network but after multiple attempts I had to beg the guards to let me in so I could reverse out as there is only one way in and I was now blocking massive traffic behind me. Back to office. I see some punters raving on about her - I skip it all.

Not how things should be done. Who the fuck hoots knowing it would draw attention to yourself?

How old are you? Still in your twenties?

Just turn around and drive off no point in getting angry at the lady it will just fuck your day up further.

Rather call someone else for an appointment and mark the lady as a time waster and leave a comment on her profile. Bruh wtf.

Happened to me too. Very popular well reviewed wg. Ad is off today or I would have mentioned. Was in Midrand and "available now" confirmed I'm coming over in 20-30 minutes. She even sms'd the address after the call and called 10 minutes later to confirm I'm coming and told her I'm nearly there. Get to the complexed call, no answer. After a few calls, the phone was off. Still waited outside that complex trying to call for over half an hour thinking maybe her phone just died or something before leaving. Couple hours later she's showing as available now in Edenvale. Didn't even get an apology message, nothing. Even posted about it on the forum later that day and she didn't even bother responding there.

Bruh, he was being sarcastic. Issa joke maan.

Only time you should be hooting and drawing attention is when you're in a dangerous spot where they try and scam for "exit code fees" after luring you with false offers. Has to do that once as a last resort before getting ready to throw down with the pimp and rip the gate of the rails with my handy tools. Luckily the hooting worked before it came to that.

What gets to me the most is when you get to a complex and they want to scan your drivers and licence disk. Sorry for you, I am out of there

SP need to learn the logistics of a booking and master it. Very annoying to book a SP who doesn't know her address, can't spell it, or give basic directions. Also the time it takes to open the gate is really awkward to the lack of indication where it's best to park and simple directions to her room worse if she in a complex. You drive in the gate and she expects you to know where her apartment is. Those small things can really be annoying

When I read it I don't see the joke and I have a sense of humor. To me I see bad gate etiquette right there.

Once again this would draw attention not just to the house but the whole neighborhood, which is intern bad for the sp as they might drive her out of the neighborhood.

I understand your frustration.
