Re: A group Indian punters, a sensitive topic but one that we need to address !!

I know it is an issue as a number of ladies have mentioned in the past. the problem yes is mostly punters, but what about a lady who cancels an appoinmnet because another client has phoned / contacted her and is prepared to pay more if she will see him?
rare maybe but it happens.

It's a ladies perogative to cancel a booking for whatever reason, provided she gives sufficient notice and not when you on your way to her or at her premises.
Sometimes we have to cancel a short booking for a much longer travel or overnight booking. My clients always understand and tell me to take the longer bookings and we reschedule the booking for another day.

Yes it does happen, I have had to not take a guy that calls short notice for a guy that called earlier, even though the second guy will get to me first, and this is when most of us lose clients cause sometimes the first guy that called might not even have the decency to cancel a booking...and in the process we lose income...
Doesn't it make sense to cancel a guy that pays less for a guy that pays more??? As Jiah put it, the cancellation should be done well on time not when you're already at my gate....
