a woman who use to be a psycic on that Keen came clean ..they own half of the 900 numbers that say call us now we are waiting by..she said her phone would ring and she had to watch tv to know what channel and what advertisment was running ..she said they checked her over very honestly to see if she was who she said she was .......but they took the money not the psycics ..and made there psycics work around the clock..they also teach the psycics to keep people on the phone to collect more from each caller ..
I have made the phone call and i got off the phone wanting to call back and ask what this means or that ...was it clear NO!

I have been face to face with a true psycic ...Ever see the lady come on tv who works with the police? She found a man near my home ...that was missing in a river accident..and that was good enough for me ....but still skeptical... my mom wanted me to go with her to see this lady on the way there we were talking and i tol dmy mother everything the lady would tell her ..my mom paid 40 dollars for 30 minutes with this woman ..and she told her ...why are u asking me all this your daughter already has informed you..now u need to start believing her she has the touch... (whatever was my thoughts back then)
I went into the room with her..she started talking about many things
my father being one...and this is a emotional topic for me...she even quoted his words to me ..creeped me out badly...EVERYTHING she has told me has came true to the bottom line ..
when I walked in the room with her i felt she was real...just like online alot of times just talk to the person dont tell eveyrthing up front ..carry on a converstaion see if you feel confortable with them ..and if u feel they are the real mecoy then ask questions... ..but to call and start right off ??? hmm and be charged ..why go somewhere else when you have a great group here all working together?
Ok said my peace ..gettting off my soap box now ...

Rip I agree with ya. I feel like once money enters the picture creditablity often leaves it. A gift like this is given to you to help your fellow man/woman not to make money off of them. This is what I believe here.


i'll differ from you on this point. why cant someone charge and still be good? what i think you mean is that it becomes bad if the person turns greedy and wants more and more and stop bothering about quality or takeing someone for a ride.

any and all skills is a gift if you ask me - be it engineering or painting or building space carft and everything in between. it's almost like saying like engineering is gift beucase it has what has helped the world build bridges and dams and road and computers... and engineer should stop asking for money.

i think it's the *greed* factor and unethical practices thats in question... and not about ethical people with ethical pratice charging you for it.

i hope you understand what i mean.

Perfectly said, Abhishek.  There are many gifts that we are to share with each other, but that doesn't mean the person with the gift must go hungry or homeless because they must share it with the world...

Would you expect a gifted musician to play for free?  Would you expect your gifted hairdresser to offer her services at no cost to you?  Of course not, they need to eat, have a place to live, etc.  Well, psychics do also.  Psychics work and they work hard to make the world better for having had them in it.

Anyone can say they are a Doctor, Chef, Musician, Psychic, Webmaster, etc., but that doesn't make it the truth.  Would you think all doctors are scam-artists if you encountered a few bad ones?  Would you expect a REAL doctor to work for free because he has a gift for healing or performing surgery?  Of course not.  

REAL psychics and prophets are known by their works.  Judge their work the same as you would judge any other professional you would consider hiring.  There are many good ones out there--and these days, many can be found on the internet.

Some work hard, many get a kick out of the power it gives them too, not all are altruistic. Many are given power by seekers that feel flattered by the 'psychics' attention. It is a real buzz for the seeker to have a popular reader spend time on them, likewise many readers can take this too far and become arrogant and take a superior know-it all stance.

But I think  the center of the matter though is the word 'gifted'? Some 'psychics' are complete fakes the only gift they have is probably their personability. The 'psychics' cold read, generalise and ask lots of leading questions to get the information they need and then turn it back to the seeker as part of the reading, and flab out a reading to take more time/cost more or be longer and by then usually the seeker will have forgotten what they said and the information they gave then pronouce the reading very accurate.

No, but you would expect a real doctor to be struck off if he was a bad surgeon with low rates of success who kept killing people? No-one can stike off a psychic, they just change thier name asnd start up again.
Thankfully real psychics can tell who is behind the persona.

Private psychics have overheads and costs, websites, hosting, publicity. Working for a hotline probably the best you can expect to get paid is around 35p per minute when the line charges £1.53. You are expected to take on different names to bump up the chances of you being called too, and some have a script and tips to extend the reading time.

There are plenty of good psychics Just do your homework and ask questions. For instance does a psychic really need to ask you any questions or do you really need to give the information they are asking for? Be wary if the reading turns more into personal advice too, there should be a distinct line between a reading and advice.

Date of birth is a usual pre-requisite to check age, but if you want a love reading then asking if you are married or in a relationship is a bit suspect. Shouldn't the psychic know? What about if you ask about your career, be wary if the psychic asks for more information about you. Clarification is fine but fishing and delving are not. Pinpointing what you want to know is ok too, that way you don't waste time on other matters but can get straight to the point.
Remember you are paying for their time and not for you to talk!

I think the abilities being discussed here are like any other skill: they have to be learned. Since very few people have natural ability, the skills are at a premium. My two cents: let the psychic charge what the demand in the market allows. As the number of people capable of doing readings go up, the price should lower.

The best way to solve this problem? Let everyone develop their abilities. How is it that a person can be dishonest if everyone is going to know anyway?

To charge or not to charge is the question.  And it has rung for so long it gets old.  We need to stop callling
psychic abilities 'gifts'.  Gifts are given and no one else has it.  That is just NOT true about psychic abilities.  
We all have them if we choose to use that sensitive area of our being. That makes them a talent, skill, ability
not a gift.  

Now you also have many other talents within your makeup.  Some given to you from birth and some you
developed as your education.  The ones you choose to charge to express is a personal choice.  And just
because one was given you as a spiritual talent does not prevent the charging for your time and skills.
Keen etc: psychic referral sites: mostly low low quality
