I take deposits for all bookings where travel, accommodation, or other expenses are involved. Unfortunately, there have been instances where I’ve had confirmed bookings become no-shows and that has cost me a lot of money. I’m not running a business to lose money.
If you think if you make a deposit I’m going to rip you off or steal your money, please cancel your booking request now. My entire business is based on trust and it works both ways. Putting down a deposit shows you trust that I’m a professional and have integrity. It also makes me comfortable you are serious about seeing me and respecting my time.
I don’t want to steal your money. I do want to know I’m safe and won’t be assaulted at an appointment. The risk is all mine. So, now we have that all out of the way, putting down a deposit is EASY!
1. You can make a deposit by direct bank transfer, using Beem_It (nobody’s account details are shared).
BONUS: If you set up a Beem_It account, make sure you go into your settings and “Redeem Code” using my reference J4S8A8, we will both receive $5 instantly. This is a new app that’s supported by all the major banks in Australia and it’s super easy to set up and use.
Step 1: Download the Beem_It app from the app store to your phone.
Step 2: Create your account, and user name, and add your bank account details.
Step 3: Once you’ve set up your account, under account settings, redeem my code J4S8A8 to receive $5 immediately.
Step 4: Search for me by my user name (@madigoldsmith), email, or my phone number 0475 025 556.
And that’s it!
All you need to do next is make a transfer with a note what it’s for. The whole process takes only a few minutes!
2. You can text me
On 0475 025 556 to work out a time it suits you to call me and I can take a credit card payment over the phone and instantly send you a receipt.
