How to decline a professional

If a response is not right for you, you can decline it. That frees a space and we look for another professional.

  1. Step 1. On the response you do not want, select Decline.

  2. Step 2. Confirm with Decline & find another. You can also choose Keep professional to change your mind.

  3. Step 3. The response moves out of your active list into a Declined section, and we start looking for a replacement.

Important: Declining is final. That professional will not be contacted about this request again and cannot respond to it. It does not affect any other request you post.

What happens next

  • If suitable professionals are still available, we invite someone else and your request shows that we are looking for another professional.
  • If there is genuinely nobody else available for this service and area, we tell you that honestly rather than leaving you waiting.
