but thats the point........in reality you only gave her around 3-4 hours notice, she would have been asleep until around 8:00. Her chances of picking up another customer in that time was around nil.
Rubbish. She was expecting a morning confirmation text anyway and she replied to him at 8:36am which is 4 hours before the booking (12:30pm) so she had
at least 4 hours notice. A popular WG like her could quite easily pick up another lunchtime client. It's nowhere near guaranteed of course but nowhere near "nil" either.
It does somewhat depend on the length of booking he made though - how long he booked for is no longer visible.
But I can see why she would have assumed you were wasting her time
I certainly can't. In the texts he states that he's met her before and a time waster wouldn't cancel with so much notice or surely any notice at all. A deliberate time waster would've sent the confirmation text she asked for. Also, how long was the booking for? If it was just for an hour or so then surely a deliberate time waster would've booked longer, especially since she'll have trusted him due to his previous visit.
My issue is that if you had been successful in having the neg removed, you would not have posted anything on here, so stop trying to take some kind of moral high ground
I totally agree that's it's piss poor form to bring UKP into it but if she had removed the negative feedback then he'd be right not to review her on here. The main thrust of this negative review is the unfair feedback she left which is the only thing possibly relevant for other punters. If she rectifies that herself then there's no need to post a review because no would care (or rather even less than those who care now).
How can you review someone who you personally cancelled on?
This isn't a review.
You two leeches clearly don't know what you're talking about since you've never even been bothered to write one.
Now you have the slandered, the sp because of this.
Bollocks. What has he said that's "slander"?
You should have mentioned what the problem was that made you cancel. We’ve all had, ‘my dad was taken to hospital’ and similar shit as excuses for cancelling late or in a couple of cases I’ve had, failing to answer the phone and give the address when you arrive at the post code. If you give a legit reason, even if you suspect it’s naff, it’s hard to get a negative response. If you just say ‘I have to cancel’ with no reason, it can be perceived as a lack of resoect. #justsayin
I mostly disagree as I think the reason is irrelevant and none of her business. Any reason given could easily be doubted by her and subject to a negative response however I think you're right that it's a bit less likely. Personally, I wouldn't perceive no reason as a lack of respect however I would perceive the lack of an apology as a lack of respect. Even though whatever happened would've likely been no fault of the OP's (and quite possibly hard to predict too), saying sorry is always the right thing to do. I think he should've apologised when he cancelled and when he replied to the WG with "As you wish, your choice" instead of a denial and an apology, he shouldn't be surprised that this pissed off the WG.
I imagine he might have been able to avoid the negative feedback, instead he just made it more likely. Of course that's still no excuse for her giving it though.
Just to answer this, Service Providers can leave positive, neutral or negative feedback on any and all booking requests that come in (regardless of whether they have been confirmed or not.)
Service Seekers can only leave positive or negative feedback on confirmed bookings, but can leave ‘feedback only’ with no rating on any booking request that they have submitted (regardless of whether the service provider has previously blocked/rejected that service seeker or not).
Flawed system in multiple ways.
I'm surprised some experienced punters here weren't aware of this.
If a WG marks a booking as "scheduled" she can leave positive or negative feedback without allowing the punter to retaliate (except with "feedback only"). It's understandable why WGs would mark it as "scheduled" rather than "confirmed" but personally, I always get a little "worried" when a girl does that due to having had a WG post bullshit negative feedback this way in the past.

The ferocity of the negative has burned my aw.
I think her negative is bang out of order. There was no reasonable grounds for her to believe you were a
deliberate time waster and so accusing you of that is just a malicious.
Anyway, despite my long post, I really don't think this is a big deal in the grand scheme of things. I too have been on the receiving end of something similar but didn't bother to review because I don't think most people would care very much, even though it does provide a little bit of insight into the WG's attitude.
