Continuos SP Cancellations and Your Time

[Odin27]

Since we are involved in this matter, we will comment.

It is easy to understand that a cancellation can create significant inconvenience for the person who made the booking.. but also for the booker that manages the schedule and unhappy client.. and we do not believe this requires further explanation. Pretty straightforward: it sucks for everyone.

However, if a lady needs to cancel due to an emergency, health-related reasons (period, flu, etc) or other unplanned circumstances, we must respect her decision. We do not force anyone to work under any circumstances. When possible, we may offer an alternative appointment on the same day, but beyond that, there is only so much we can do. We always work our best to find a solution while respecting the well-being of the individuals involved.

We also offer the possibility of booking several days in advance, which is an advantage compared to many others in the industry. However, we have noticed an increasing number of clients who make bookings and then repeatedly request changes to their appointments. We do not make an issue out of it and always do our best to accommodate such requests respectfully, as flexibility is part of the business. Nevertheless, frequent changes can make scheduling more challenging for everyone involved, especially the booker.

This topic isn’t about the complexity of schedules or the workload of the bookers. Offering the option to book several days in advance is a great advantage, yes — but as clients, we don’t really care if it complicates scheduling on the business side. As a business, you should have the personnel and systems to handle these situations regardless. A client wants to switch days? No issue. Problem solved, and the business continues making money.

On the other hand, when a client makes many bookings and then cancels three‑quarters of them a few hours before the appointment, that’s tough for both the girl and the bookers. Now there’s a rush to fill the spot so the girl doesn’t lose income and the business doesn’t either. But again, the business should be equipped with staff to manage that.

Back to the main point: those of us who are “experienced” understand how things work — priority clients, 2‑hour+ priority windows, and so on. We also know these things can’t be openly stated to clients. It’s part of the game.

Then comes reliability. We all understand real emergencies: flu, hospital visits, unexpected issues. Clients can make things up too — flat tire, sick dog, sudden emergency. But if the same client always has the flu, always has a flat tire, always has an emergency, it raises an eyebrow. Their reliability becomes questionable, and naturally they won’t be prioritized.

The same applies to the girls. If the business chooses to work with unreliable girls, that’s their decision. But as clients, we notice. It doesn’t necessarily reflect on the girl — it reflects on the reliability of the business. If we have to plan carefully, spend a lot of money, book in advance, and then go to sleep with our fingers crossed hoping everything works out, that becomes a problem.

Forever is sincerely amazing, and I would recommend it to anyone. And we thank you for being around

Same agency, same day. Booked the first one in advance. The others were plan B and C.

This happened to me a couple times. You make a booking well in advance and all but it end up being cancelled. Then the booker sometimes may offer to see someone else and you agree but then 30m later you get cancelled again. Then you go elsewhere and book someone else entirely unrelated and boom cancel again. Its like at this point the Universe is trying to send you a message or something but since you are exited and in the mood to have sex you push trough even tough the better options are depleted as the day advance...

As someone else said while i never saw an agency or indy say it directly, im pretty sure if someone ask for a 3/4h booking, a 1h already booked meeting will be cancelled in favor of the 4h... An excuse will be made and they will try to get you to see someone else. Of course this is likely in link to the client as well (does he book often, does the SP really like him, is he on Merb etc). Obviously this can all affect the situation.

Can we agree that at 15 bookings in a month, you sort of tested the limits of the system? Are you willing to offer them management consulting services to implement the "systems" and "processes" to seamlessly manage their cancellation workflow (lol...) As you say, Forever is as professional as they come in this business. I'm not looking to blame anyone here, be it clients, SP or agencies. Ask hair dressers, restaurant owners, Marketplace sellers, etc. and they'll all tell you the same thing: last minute cancellations, no-shows and time-wasters plague their whole business. It`s part of the degradation of social norms in modern society.
