I
am
writing
to
express
my
disappointment
and
frustration
regarding
the
recent
surfing
session
I
had
booked
with
your
company.
While
I
acknowledge
our
tardiness
was
a
mistake,
I
believe
that
the
way
the
situation
was
handled
highlights
a
lack
of
consideration
for
customer
satisfaction
and
flexibility
within
your
company's
policies.
Our
experience
can
be
summarized
as
follows:
My
companions
and
I
arrived
late
for
our
prepaid
session,
and
we
fully
understand
the
non-refundable
and
non-transferable
nature
of
our
booking.
However,
what
perplexed
us
was
the
fact
that
there
was
ample
availability
for
a
later
session
at
5
PM,
which
we
were
willing
to
participate
in.
Regrettably,
we
were
met
with
a
response
that
simply
cited
"terms
and
conditions,"
offering
little
to
no
flexibility
or
customer-oriented
service.
Subsequently,
we
reluctantly
decided
to
pay
an
additional
$30
each
to
partake
in
a
surfing
session
at
the
bay.
To
our
dismay,
we
were
then
required
to
pay
an
extra
$15
each
for
wetsuits,
despite
having
expected
these
essentials
to
be
included
in
the
initial
session
fee.
After
changing
into
our
gear,
receiving
a
safety
briefing,
and
finally
hitting
the
waves,
we
found
ourselves
enjoying
the
experience
for
a
mere
10
minutes
before
the
session
came
to
an
end.
Ultimately,
it
was
decided
to
refund
our
initial
30$
session
fee,
but
by
that
point,
the
damage
was
done.
We
had
spent
well
over
$500
collectively
for
a
brief
10-minute
surfing
experience
and
an
expensive
shower.
In
conclusion,
we
acknowledge
our
responsibility
for
being
late;
however,
this
should
not
preclude
the
company
from
considering
the
overall
customer
experience
and
allowing
for
reasonable
rescheduling
when
there
is
availability.
Our
impression
is
that
the
company's
policies
are
primarily
profit-driven
and
lack
the
flexibility
required
for
exceptional
customer
satisfaction.
I
kindly
request
that
you
review
your
policies
and
procedures
to
ensure
a
more
customer-centric
approach,
especially
when
such
situations
can
be
resolved
with
a
reasonable
level
of
accommodation.
I
hope
this
feedback
will
contribute
to
a
more
positive
and
customer-friendly
experience
for
future
patrons.
