A pre-booking gone astray.
External Link/Members OnlyWas arranged about 2 weeks from Christmas 2017. Booking was meant to take place on the 27th of December. The only reason I tried to pre-book was to avoid the awkward rush/timing during the Christmas period.
A week before the meet, I sent her a text asking whether or not it was okay to text her with outfit requests. That's all I said in that one text. Radio silence. Alarm bell ringing already but I still waited till the day of the booking. I heard nothing from her which was gutting as the so called "trio of Mansfield's must-see belles" had been some of the most well reviewed WGs up to that point. Saw another well reviewed girl a couple of days later who is practically another regular now.
A few weeks into the new year, I heard that Riley had apparently "retired". According to others, "she is taking an extended break". I even sent Lucie Bee a text asking whatever had happened to Riley to which she replied "she doesn't work anymore". I don't know what to take from any of that.
Flash-forward late May/early June of this year, news of Riley's return is in the air. She even posted a pic on UKE. Sent her a text only saying, "hi". Nothing came back. Sent her another one today, this time with more of a push, asking for an explanation and a possible re-arrangement. Still nothing.
I just think it's highly disrespectful to be ignored like this. I travel all around in the UK and have had success making short notice bookings on the day on multiple occasions and on rare occasions that I've had to book well in advance, even those had been hassle free. But with Riley's status as an "efficient" WG in Nottingham, i expected much better, not an ounce of professionalism shown barring on the day of initial contact when she was seemingly putting me "down on her diary" for the 27th. She was also totally fine with me not putting a booking request through. Perhaps if I'd mentioned that I was a member of this site or of UKE... ...
