Its unfortunate it happened. Sad to say, its not all that uncommon in the hobby. I too live about 75-90 minutes drive away from the city where the providers in our area operate. Had so many cancel after I'd driven up to the city, I now make it part of my "routine" to PM/Text before I start the drive. If no response.. I don't start driving. Had a few providers contact me 10 minutes before the appointment saying.. "Are you ready"? I reply to them, since they didn't answer me, I didn't start driving and did they want to reschedule for 90 minutes later since it will take that long to drive up there... or I tell them we'll simply try again .. and move on.
And "move on" usually means.. I have the free time and the cash in my pocket so I contact another lady and see her so she gets the money the original just missed out on.
