Horrible Experience!
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

I have never experienced such poor customer service in my life. Miriam cancelled my appointment the day of the massage without any explaination. Since, it was being paid for with a gift cert, Miriam agreed to refund me the amount of the cert. since I was unable to rescedule. This all seemed very kind and ethical. Let me emphasis "seemed kind and ethical." Miriam did not send my refund when she said she would, nor did she return phone calls. Understand, I was nothing but understanding, untill this started to drag on for weeks. I finally left another message, saying I would have to result to other collection methods if she wouldn't return my calls, and guess what? She actually called back! She said that she had been sick, and would put the check in the mail the following Monday. I said I understood, but even a phone call to let me know what was going on would have been greatly appreciated. Well, the following week, still no check until Friday. I thought, OK better late than never. I opened the envelope and she had only refunded HALF OF THE PROMISED AMOUNT! I have called her several times since, as have my friends who purchased the gift certificate, and she won't answer the calls, or respond in any way. I have dealt with many professionals in the healing arts, and I have never run across someone with this type of poor morals and ethics. I consider her acts to be very dishonest, and all of this would have not happened if she had just been true to her word. I trust people (especially in this type of field) to speak and honor the truth. This was absolutely unbelievable.

Cons: Miriam's poor customer service

Response from this business

Never the Full Story
Posted on 03/17/2008
For the record: A private scheduling change had occurred. I offered to change the appointment for the client, but was denied. Was told originally it was for an hour, which was scheduled. Though I don't refund gift certificates, I gave her back the money for her appointment. She was repaid for an hour. None of my clients have ever been less than incredilbly fullfilled by my massages. I'm sorry this turned out as it did and a rescheduling didn't occur. Perhaps if she had rescheduled, she would have experienced something far more wonderful. Again, apologies.
