Had my eye on Effie for quite a while.  She helpfully lists her availability but I could never match hers until this past Thursday(01/09/16).

Comms were a little slow but we soon confirmed a 90 minute incall at 11am.

I rearranged my work schedule for the day and headed to  Effies.  As I left the tube station nearest her place, I received a text cancelling our meeting, the text was timed at 10.11am - less than an hour before meeting was supposed to take place. 

No excuse given.

I don't do plans b's because I have very short windows of time to punt, so I headed back to work early - lovely.

I'm actually surprised by this as I've always been able to meet her at the time/date requested with good comms and I keep returning.

Might have been something of a one off thing, but nevertheless very frustrating.

To be fair, I couldn't match her availability due to my work, as I said, its helpful she updates her availability regularly.

Reasons for the negative, is that she didn't offer any alternative times and when I got back to work, she had amended availability from 9am-10pm to 1pm-5pm - so she was still working that day, possibly cancelling my booking because she'd overdone it the night before, whatever the case, she wasted my time.

She should have cancelled my booking at the very least, 2 hours before start time, she left it so late that I had already arrived when I received her message.
