A customer has made a Private Ticket (Flexitime) booking with me - what do I do now?

Private Ticket events can be requested by the customer at a date and time that suits them, for either a private or group booking.

Firstly, you will receive an email very similar to a regular 'New Booking' email.

Please make sure to respond to the booking as soon as possible. If you take more than 48 hours to do this, the customer is automatically rejected, and their request and payment is cancelled.

When you click "Respond to this booking" you are then taken to the Baluu Home tab dashboard page and from here you can either Confirm, Reschedule or Cancel the booking as below:

Confirming a Private Ticket:

  • Simply click 'Confirm' in your dashboard and then click OK!

  • If the location is yet to be determined, you will be given a message box to email the customer asking to arrange the location. When you are done writing your message please select the 'Yes' button. This will put you in direct email contact with the customer so please be careful about what you write.


​

A confirmation message will appear confirming the booking.

Rescheduling a Private Ticket:

  • When clicking 'Reschedule' you are not saying no to the customer - this simply means that you cannot attend the event time and/or date requested.

  • When you click 'Reschedule' you will be prompted to write a message explaining why you can't accept the booking and then also be given the option to suggest different dates and times (see below):

  • Please make sure to add as many alternative dates and times as you can to give the customer enough options to choose from. You can add up to 20 different slots, so please take full advantage of this!

  • The customer will then be sent your message and the dates in a new email. If they cannot make any of the suggested alternatives, they can either speak directly back to you or ask for a refund for their booking.

Rejecting a Private Booking:

  • Only click 'Cancel' if you categorically cannot attend the private event with the customer and do not want to attempt to reschedule. By clicking 'Cancel' you will immediately send an email to the customer and release the hold placed on their card.

Once you select 'Cancel' a new window will open with the following:

Select the reason for cancelling and then click on the 'Reject' button. A new window will open with a booking cancellation confirmation.
