(This is not for you, my friend NY88, I know you know it well 
)
During all Ramadan, most pick-up joints (massage and KTV sites) are closed day time, to allow girls to respect puasa, but they open at night around 7 or 8 or 9pm (I don't remember the exact time).
This seems an obstacle, but actually it opens a possibility which is totally precluded outside Ramadan: going to a KTV and find best girls still available at 9pm!
In other months, at 9pm all decent girls have been already booked, since early customers come to choose starting at noon.
Last year, I found an incredible couple of sister SYTs at Permata at 9pm. No way they could be free at that time if not during Ramadan.
About back doors: yes, some massage will allow booking also day time via the back door, but it is not possible to see the girls and choose. The OKT sits outside with friends, like just chatting, and presents a photo-book to customers who ask. Berry Indah / New Berry in its previous location was doing that.
Since all photos look virtually the same, with even old ladies looking teens, picking company from a photo-book is not advisable (my opinion).
I think it may be useful to repeat my post of some days ago, to the benefit of all non-Muslim readers who don't know what days of Ramadan should be avoided in planning a visit to Batam.

REPEATED TEXT:
----------
In Batam the police enforces (Batam is unpredictable, but this is the norm) total closure of all entertainment, including KTV, pubs, discos, on the first 3, middle 3, final 3 days of Ramadan. Those are definitely don't-go days, unless you have some friend there to meet without needing music, dance, etc.
Ramadan 2014 in Indonesia is expected to begin on Saturday 28 June and end on 28 July. I write "is expected " because the actual date depend on when the moon is seen by some religious authority. Thus, +/- 1 day could apply.
If I count well on my calendar, that days would be 27-28-29-30 June (one day added for the uncertainty), then 14-15-16-17 July, then 27-28-29-30 July. Consider that the whole week around the end of Ramadan is the week where everyone leaves the work place to go back to original home to meet family.
If in doubt, calling directly the pub or the Newton/Pacific hotels to ask "will you be open tonight?" or even "are you open NOW?" may be useless. Beware of that.
