This guy stood me up today - first time I've ever been ghosted by a provider.  Earlier in the week I set an appointment for 2PM today.  He gave me his address, but no apartment number and just said to ask the Doorman for Carmine.  Seemed like a slight red flag but I know the building and figured a doorman is a good sign. Texted him earlier today to confirm with no response - another red flag but I head to his building as agreed upon.  When I asked the doorman for Carmine she sent me straight up to his apartment after confirming my appointment time.  That made me feel slightly better for a couple of minutes until I get to his door and see five Whole Foods delivery bags sitting there unclaimed.  I rang the bell anyway - no response, no noise from inside.    I texted him a pic of his door with the bags to let him know he ghosted me but no response yet.  I've never left bad review on RM - he has 25 five-star reviews - but I feel like I should.

Update - I get a response from him over two hours later:  

Hey  I’m SO sorry.  I was up editing for a project deadline until 8am - I slept thru 2 alarms.  Really really sorry. I’d like to make it up to you and offer you a make up session for $99 instead of the 200.  Please let me know when I can have you back

❤️❤️❤️

Please don’t hate me, I’m a nice guy ❤️

I told him no thanks.

No second chance because you believe his explanation/apology wasn't genuine?  Or is there another reason not to try again?

Bummer.  Just curious: had he asked you for a deposit?  Or perhaps he has moved away from that construct.

The validity of his excuse isn't important to me, I simply don't have any interest in running the risk of him wasting my time again.  There are plenty of other providers out there.
