Questions and answers

Is it legal to charge a cancellation fee?

In most places yes, if the policy is clear and the client agreed to it before booking. Check the consumer rules in your country.

What usually works better than a fee?

Prevention: an automatic reminder before the appointment and an easy online way to cancel or reschedule in time. The fee is a backup, not the main tool.
