Generally speaking, I'm not a complainer, but something happened recently and I'm not sure if I should bother mentioning anything, if there is point to mentioning anything, or if what was done was enough (Note: I'm not looking for anything like a discount or freebie or whatever. More curious to know if as a presumably semi-valued client if there is a benefit to either of us in me bringing it up).
So I had seen an SP before and had a great time, like really great. In planning to see her again, I elected for something offered, but far above what I normally do (details will make it obvious to SP in question, defeating the purpose of this) in terms of both time and price.
Everything was arranged and the session began wonderfully. As things moved along, certain...efforts of mine were met with resistance. I'm speaking of FS - kind of a big deal. Like I said I had seen her before and mileage had nothing to do with it. Indeed, everything else (that was advertised as being included) was available. I was told, about a third of the way through the session that, due to an unusual but plausible situation the day before, FS was unavailable (not a monthly situation, I should add), This was told to me apologetically and I was offered a significant and fair discount from the agreed upon rate.
My issue here is that, had I known that this would have happened, I would have rescheduled. Like I said, this was far above what I normally choose to spend and is in fact the most I have spent on a session (shorter than 3 hours, which this definitely was). To have the session I wanted was, in short, what I wanted. The 'new' rate, which again was fair, was more than I would have spent for the service I was now being offered, well past the point where I could have refused and left. What I received was fine, but it was not what I was looking/hoping for and my expectations and anticipation did not include having a 'fine' experience.
I still had a good enough time but left unsatisfied and a little annoyed. I have not seen her since and don't know that I will because this has left a sour taste in my mouth. Shit happens, but I feel like I should have been given the opportunity to decide if I wanted a reduced package, regardless of the rate or if given that it was through no fault of my own and the issue arose the day before, if I wanted to reschedule.
Some additional information: The SP in question is an indy, has very good follow up to questions/PMs, she seems sweet, but professional and is highly unlikely to miss my business as she is fairly popular.
Is there a point in mentioning this to her or simply move on to the next one?
