This may not be reliable but a friend of a friend once made a telephone booking. The guy was on time, but was nowhere near what had been described. Was French or Belgian (from the accent), somewhat overweight (36" waist, it was said) short and bearded! Difficult to tell his age under the beard, it was said, but possibly 40.
Naturally the client rejected and big dispute erupted over what was owed. Alas, I can't exactly recall the money figures in question, but as icon said, it was in the thousands.
