So, around 4pm the day prior to the booking a well spoken English guy rings, we have a chat and he books for 5:30 the next day. He even texts "lovely to talk to you can't wait to meet tomorrow. Brooks".
The next day he confirms, but says he will be 15 minutes late due to traffic. As it's rush hour and he gave warning I offered to wait. He then texts and prank calls saying it will now be 6pm, then asked if parking was easy.
I responded I have no idea about on street parking at that exact moment as I was in my flat not outside watching parking spaces.
At around 6:20 I figured out he was never coming.
Very annoying as I turned town a longer booking for him and he kept me waiting on a wild goose chase.
Be warned, he's very believable and I assume he does this a lot.
Calls himself "Brooks"
Well spoken
Books via phone/text.
