This was my second attempted punt in a row that ended as a no show. I put a negative review in for the last one and actually felt a bit guilty about it, but have no such feelings this time!
I put a RB on AW for £200 for 2 hours in a hotel where I would be staying in Leigh. I had a number of responses and eventually whittled it down to Kimy who was about a plan C choice, but other preferred options dropped off the list for various reasons.
All seemed to be going well, with me even receiving an AW message from her on the afternoon of the day in question to tell me to make sure I formalise an AW booking and send full details of the hotel, both of which I subsequently did.
We exchanged a couple of text messages to confirm mobile numbers, and she messaged me about two hours before the meet time to say she would be there 30mins later than agreed. I wasn’t too fussed, so didn't say anything about that.
She texted me an hour before saying she was getting ready and would be with me as agreed.
About 30 minutes prior to the meet time she messaged to say she had broken down about 5 miles away and was waiting for the AA. That was the last contact I had from her despite sending a few more messages requesting updates on her situation.
Strangely her AW feedback includes a couple of recent no show complaints - quite a coincidence eh!
I think what happened is she accepted the booking, then realised I was too far from her to make it worthwhile, so decided not to bother and came out with the bullshit broken down car excuse instead of just telling me.
I want to make sure my next punt is a cracker to make up for these last two spoiled ones.
