I booked a bridal appointment (my first ever one!) on a Friday, where my plan was to take a day off work and travel up from London with my maid of honour (my parents live locally).
I get a call 2 hours before my appointment, while we are already on the train, to say they are having to cancel due to a personal emergency. That is fine, I am human and I get people have emergency issues crop up. This is not my problem
What is NOT however fine is the rude voicemail I was left!!! During the middle of the call, my signal failed because I was travelling by train, so I did not have the chance to finish the conversation. I then regained signal to find a rude, and downright disgraceful voicemail from the bridal salon, saying they were upset and shocked I had hung up and that all I cared about was my appointment!!
Like I said, people have personal emergencies and that is fine. What is NOT fine is calling up a potential client, who has been cancelled on last minute for her first bridal appointment, just to berate them for something they didn't do, and to judge them for bad behaviour they didn't do! In my mind this is disgraceful customer service. I would not recommend this shop - if they treat customers they have let down like this, who knows how they treat customers the rest of the time!!
