Wca booking over phone

Didnt know they did this. They called this morning. Would I like to come in this afternoon for my WCA. I cant for a variety of reasons, and they were fine about it, but didnt realize they did this.
I really couldn't do it without some advance warning, sure many people couldn't.

I didnt take it. One reason, my back is out at the mo, and two, I have bad anxiety and just that phone call has upset things.
Just hope it was a one off.
Thanks both of you
There was no way I was going for a few reasons. Dont like surprises, and as you say, do like to know what I'm doing and when.
I would be surprised if they got anyone to fill the slot if it was a cancellation then.
A friend of mine has been waiting on a WCA since June 2019 and got a text message yesterday reminding them to attend on the 6th of Feb. When they called to query, they were told that it was a cancellation slot and a letter was coming out to them. Rather short notice after waiting for so long and not the most welcome news. Hopefully you'll have a bit more notice with the next one.
Scope
If you have a few minutes to spare, we'd appreciate your feedback on our online community.
I almost certainly wouldn't take a WCA at short notice.
Hoping they dont take that route again. I guess we have the right to refuse it though, as that's what I did.
