If it was me i would give back half the fee and keep rest for him not wanting to see you and you still having to email and go bank but you did cancel his first appointment so i think this depends what terms you have in place.

If people taking deposits there should be clear terms because say you cannot make the booking and he has paid £60 but only in the area for just that day and cannot rescedule then i would say the full fee should be returned or at least tell them what you're exact terms are if you cancel and the client cannot do another date??

In a normal business taking deposits there would be clear terms that they agree or not agree to regarding you taking deposits.

Nope, no refund. He doesn't get his deposit back. I don't do refunds myself.

thanks girls i no i did cancel my fault but i have said i would refund half the money as i have offered another appointment for any day he choose but he then had changed his mind doesn't want to do it anymore not my fault that lol ,but because the emails phone calls i hhave had from him telling him what i would be doing to him im only giving him half he doesn't like it tough x

If you cancelled then you refund him. It's what I'd expect from any business offering a service. Offer me an appointment next week? Erm no, I'll be in Glasgow by then.

If you don't want to reveal your bank details then give the cash to a friend and ask them to do it. I've got my son to do this a couple of times.

As you cancelled on him first I think the right thing to do is refund the whole lot.

You cancel you refund and explain.
They cancel you keep the deposit as this is what the deposit is for.
By keeping the deposit and cancelling, potentially you have also blocked him from booking another escort for that day.
On this occasion, I would have refunded fully not partial as it's not his fault.

I always stipulate deposits are unrefundable if they cancel or make significant changes.
