    The service provided from CharterUp initiated on August 18, 2024 agreement/contract was not provided.The Driver was 40 minutes late arriving at 2:10pm when the departure time was set at 1:30 pm. I allowed 1-hour and 30 minutes for a 50 minutes drive. This was initiated to assure that ********************************************************************************* ******** on time. I received sent serval notifications indicating that the driver was going to be on time, which I kept a record on. As a result of your drivers lateness, we missed 30 minutes of the first half of the Broadway play. I had to consult with people who purchased tickets wanting a refund. The tickets were given to me once we arrived at the venue and had to be scanned one-by-one. It caused more time, and we were rushed in without properly seating to avoid more time away from seeing the play.I would like a refund of $1009.50 to compensate me for your company neglecting to implement and demonstrate time management to ensure the times of arrival are complete and efficiently performed. The plays final and last performance was the day we attended so we cannot return.

    I am rejecting this response because: I have already returned a total of $360.00 to patrons who miss part of the show. I will settle with half of the money return that would allow me to credit back to the patrons. Otherwise we can seek litigation.

    Sincerely,
