I'm not really pointing the finger, just saying it's an example of how a client may say they're cancelling because they can't go when really it's not the case. You're right. This does bug me. It bugs me partly because I'm self-employed so I understand why these policies exist and partly because I just feel it shows a lack of courtesy when people say Ts shouldn't charge for cancellations.

I expect the same courtesy from him.
Just to be clear, I'm talking about cancelling, not changing - different thing. I think it's fine to have a set-in-stone policy for cancellations if you're willing to reschedule as needed, the point being the T doesn't lose the session fee.
