It's not a dumb solution if it actually works!
@it's Caturday, it depends on what the appointment is for. My doctor usually charges a copay if you don't cancel a week ahead but they do charge $200 if you miss certain procedures yet are free if you miss other types. Depends on cost of materials I think.
If there is a charge for canceling, I'm a bit surprised there isn't a charge for rescheduling at the last minute. That's basically canceling. I'm thinking you got someone who didn't know what they were doing.
No my doctor's offices are the same. 24 hour notice or reschedule is no charge. Try to cancel within that last 24 hour time and they can charge you the full fee. So if you have no valid excuse then reschedule and if you have to then cancel a few days later.
Same here. It's such a stupid policy. Glad this guy was able to go around it. Lol
I wants had an interest bearing savings account that I went in and told the teller I wanted to withdraw $100 from she told me that I can only withdraw or deposit and amounts of 250 or more so I simply told her I want to withdraw $350 and took the hundred out of the 350 and gave her back the 250 to deposit she said oh and scratched here head and said ok.
