I give my address to my clients ten minutes before the booking (they already know what tube station to go to) so if I don't hear from them 5 minutes before the booking time I send them a message saying that their booking will be cancelled if I don't hear from them in ten minutes. 5 minutes past the meeting and no response they get a message from me telling them it has been cancelled and not to contact me again as I don't appreciate my time being wasted.

I don't know why I even bother really, honestly 10% of the guys respond to my first message, I don't hear anything from 90% of them. Those that do respond usually say they're sorry but they have been underground and are running a little late. 90% of guys will text me to let me know they're running late, as they often want to make sure there's a point in coming to the booking (i.e. I'm not going to have to throw them out early because I have someone right after them).

If it's a new client I haven't seen before, and he doesn't phone when he's on his way to get my flat number (which I don't give until
then so I know they're actually going to show up), I'll phone or text him, no reply he'll get blocked.

I usually give a second chance, however if it's a first-time with me appointment and they didn't bother to cancel, let me know either before or even afterwards then I will ask for a deposit for the next booking. I have recently seen a couple of clients who had either cancelled or no-showed for their first booking a year or two ago and all was fine.

I give a confirmation window and recently have been quite strict with this with new clients, ie if not confirmed in that window and by the method agreed (for instance if it's been arranged purely by text or email then confirmation must be a spoken phone call), then I do not accept another booking.

Life and nerves do happen however I found that new clients who confirm significantly late, and not as agreed tend to go on to be unreliable or mess about with future bookings, ie they are just lax in general and I'm only interested in people who are reliable. More often than not if someone confirms late I'll have filled the appointment, either the actual slot or have taken my quota for the day and use that as free time or an early finish.

As a rule of thumb if someone cancels more appointments than they attend then I will start to ask for a deposit, or not be able to hold future bookings for them which I do make clear.

4. Realistically not many clients will pay for the hour and get 45 minutes or less than that. Clients can walk if they change their mind even if isn't ideal for the escort. I wouldn't pay the full price for some thing, for them to cut a chunk out of the item. Not many in society would to be honest.

Many businesses working on an appointment system will give you reduced time, charging same price - it's up to you you've blocked up their diary and can forfeit it. This isn't necessarily what I do, I just wait and see what the client wants to do.

Ive had today a rude guy turning 10 minutes late, complaining he cant find a free parking and has to pay. WTF?
Whitout saying sorry for being late, or leting me know he is late, nothing.
I cancelled his booking and told him I cant stand for people who dont have the courtesy to let me know they are late more than 5 minutes and he called me rude. LOL. Im still pissed off

Well, of course I jinxed myself after my previous post on this thread. Today, I had a booking  that I shouldn't have taken with this guy I saw once. He had previously asked for a 40% discount on my fee after the first meet, promising to be a regular which I rejected. He arranged an appointment (full fee) for an hour. 10 minutes after our appointment time, I texted him as he had not arrived and he said he was waiting for a cab. I told him I might not be able to give him the full hour as he was already so late. Another 10 minutes later, he called me to say the cab was late. I was pissed off he had taken the mickey and given me all sort of crock excuses.  So i cancelled he appointment.

The jerk had the nerve to text me telling me I had a horrible attitude and lecturing me how he can't help it if I had back to back appointments. I was so pissed off! Firstly, he was so presumptuous that I had another booking after him which I did not. I thought he was being an idiot for not informing me he was running late. I had to contact him to find out. Even then, 20 minutes after our appointment he was still waiting for a cab which is ridiculous because he would be past half an hour late when he eventually arrived. And the worst bit is that he left for our appointment 5 minutes before our scheduled meeting time!!!!

Erghhhhh. What a piece of work. Told him never to contact me again.
