I've been really busy this week for me and had limited availability today so I had to turn one lovely guy away who I have seen before. Hate it when that happens! But this job can take over your life if you let it.

I do wonder what business will be like in two years time. I noticed a decline either way each year.

Today has been fine although I am really losing my patience with people. The minute I spot a timewaster I make up an excuse or just cut the phone and block. Yesterday was dead! Im in Heathrow.

I'll see your 3 and raise you to 6 NO SHOWS today in Heathrow.

This is the first time I've done more than a day room at Heathrow. I have plans with a friend tomorrow night so I'm not going to move hotels but this is the last time I'll work Heathrow.

Fortunately 0 no shows for me (although it didn't stop a couple of previous ones from trying!) but also zero actual bookings. 2 days in a row without a single a appointment - I'm really worried now  ???

I should probably clarify that only one of my no shows actually got to the point I was expecting them to arrive - the other 5 failed to confirm. I just save them in Truecaller as "no show John" to warn other ladies :D

Still - that's a fair amount not confirming/turning up! Sounds horrendous. I certainly have no intentions of touring Heathrow, going by what I've heard!

How long before booking do you ask them to confirm? For those I store them as "didn't confirm" so if they book again I do let them but proceed with caution and also get them to confirm more than normally necessary, e.g an hour before as well as when they are setting off (obvs depending on how far they are coming). I would also prioritise other bookings before them.

I thought that perhaps I was being too picky re Heathrow but after your experience I won't be going for a 3rd attempt.

I don't know what it is about that place where some do well and others just bomb  ???

If the time they requested is more than 2 hours away, I ask them to confirm an hour before. If it's less than that, 1 hour before.

If it's within the hour I say "I'm going to send you a text with the postcode, please text me back and let me know what time you can get here." Then I send them the postcode of somewhere nearby.

I've probably doubled down by touring a well-known TW destination during school hols.

What's really annoying is that I moved my AW profile to Heathrow 2 days before I arrived to try to weed out the wankers, and set up auto response on my phone to say "please call back on Friday". TBF that auto response went out nearly 100 times and at least I haven't had 100 no shows :D

Oh no VC thats appaling. when i did Heathrow it was a mix..i find for me most Time wasters come from viva st when I was at Heathrow. Had alot of BB requests there too, mostly from Arabs. I stopped advertising there. I got another 3 booked in so far and 2 to confirm so lets see how the day pans out. X

I always find that if it goes a bit quiet change your pics. It always gets the phone ringing. Even if you can't hire anyone get a friend to take nice mobile shots and u can put filters on them to make them more vibrant or however you choose. X

I was suprised last night with bookings after spending most of the day at the hair dressers.
