Cancellation Policy

Dear Valued clients,

 

We are bringing Into force this cancellation policy.

 

At La Bella Vita beauty Therapy we understand that sometimes you may have to postpone or cancel your appointment.

 

Before making an appointment with us we would like to make you aware of our cancellation policy. All that we ask is that you would let us know if you cannot attend your appointment within 24 hours which allows us time to book clients that we often have on our waiting list.

 

We will text or email you the day before as a reminder and if you are unable to attend please contact us within 24 hours. Alternatively, if you would like to personally call we would only be too happy.

 

Failure to inform us within 24 hours of your expected arrival or no show on the day will result in subsequent appointments requiring either a 50% deposit or a Visa card number to secure bookings.

 

If regular occurrence to fail to inform us occurs less than 24 hours notice then 50% of the service will be charged. On the day cancellations and no shows 100% of the service will be charged.

 

Note: We know there are exceptional situations beyond your control, which we would not dream of charging for, especially if you reschedule but please understand and acknowledge our terms, we are only trying to run a business, no shows late clients, and last minute cancellations can deeply affect business.

    1. Our credit card and debit card payment processing agents. We know how important it is to protect the security of your credit and debit card information. For that reason, we have contracted leading payment services agents to store those details securely. When you provide us with your card details, and if you instruct us to save your card details for future transactions, we retain only part of those card details, before sending them to our payment services agent using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol, which encrypts the card details while they are transmitted.

Sharing your card details in this manner helps us ensure that your card details are securely stored at all times and that once transmitted we do not hold your card details.
