What a shame! I was going to book her for 15 mins and see what she's like, not sure if I'll see her now after what happened with you and also her putting her price up. The price is definitely not worth the risk now
But I tend to never set off to a punt if I get no confirmation on the day, just a rule for me. But I do think that she should've at least sent you a text and let you know about the cancellation earlier.
Couldn't agree more. Cancelling in advance makes a world of difference. I doubt I would have left this review if she had, hell I probably wouldn't have if she only warned me with 5 mins to spare (since I knew the risk when I set off with no reply and I had backup plans anyway). Having said that, her comms are piss poor. I have subsequently tried to see her but she's now stopped replying to my texts. I've also tried calling and did right from beginning but still haven't heard her voice. I am genuinely surprised how she gets any punters at all. And having said all that, I still would probably say if you can get her on the phone and get her to confirm the booking before you set off, you'll probably be all right (based on the other reviews). Then again if she doesn't even put the effort into getting the customers, then why the hell would you think she's bothered about them being satisfied!
I think she was coasting on her good looks before but now with the price hike she's taking piss. Still, that's harsh considering I haven't seen her but then that's her fault!
