I'm hoping the right person will see this message as we're talking about school fees and all. Late last year, a client didn't pitch for his hour booking. However, he was gracious enough to pay for it, with the agreement between us that he can redeem his hour at a later stage. I never saw that client and unfortunately his I lost his number (not intentionally!!). IF that's a big IF that person is reading this, please contact me. It's been bothering me, I pride myself on having integrity, I want to honour that booking.

Paid for a "retainer" R2k upfront for discounted sessions.
Over a year later still waiting for her to answer the phone.
It also wasn't a new try, I'd seen her many times and we decided on the deal.

WG honors her word for about 5 minutes and then the excuses start. WG blocks punter. Punter learns from lesson, moves on and continues to lead a good and blessed life. WG did not learn from lesson, continues on that path and gets worse off. Apparently one does not get ahead in life robbing people and Karma is a bitch.
Pretty much the same lesson here! I was a regular (up to 2x weekly) and she asked for a booking fee in advance for expenses, I think her car.
My gut said this was a bad idea because she could only text about it.. So I lent her the money but did not want a booking in return. I preferred the cash as I felt it was a slippery slope going down that path.
She proceeded to block me, I complained to ESA with proof and she was blocked from advertising, until we sorted things out. She's back advertising now and I'm no longer a regular.
I have learnt that if you lend somebody money, only give it if you are prepared to write it off. Especially in this world.
