Title: Should I bother? Not sure what to do? Time waster?
Post by: intergalactickitten on 30 July 2016, 11:04:56 am
Okay so long story short had a client contact me a couple of days ago and he booked me for tonight 6pm in Central London. I spoke to him on the phone he sounded determined enough, but he didn't give me any details on where he will be staying  :-\ he said he will send them to me "later". I haven't heard from him since 2 days ago, the trouble is I'm currently in a different city and not sure whether to come back to London or not for tonight because he hasn't replied to my text and AW message.

What do you guys think? Time waster? What should I do? Seems to have a high feedback on AW  :-\

Don't go, is my advice. Send him a last message if you want saying, 'Unless I have a location for this evenings booking by 2pm today, I will not be able to travel to London.' Then just leave it.

I think that's probably sound advice. I've just messaged him...
It's dead in London anyway, and I just kind of want to chill in the countryside by myself  ;D

Nova is spot on - then the ball is in his court!

I'd be tempted to ask for a deposit if I had to travel back specifically for a client, too.
