Alternatively, you may agree with the provider to wait or reschedule.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>If the option does not appear or the transaction status does not update, contact support with the appointment number and the time you tried to join.

You can use the balance to book a new appointment with the same provider or someone else.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>If you would prefer the money returned to the original payment method instead of your wallet, submit a request to support for the eligible transaction.

Tatmeen will seek to suggest a provider with a similar specialty and language, but neither your appointment nor your file will be transferred without your consent.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>You may review the replacement provider's name, specialty, appointment time, and price and then accept, or decline and receive a full refund to your Tatmeen Wallet, or reschedule with the original provider. If the provider transfers appointments that are part of a package, all appointments in that package are canceled and the full package amount is returned to your Tatmeen Wallet. You can then create a new package with the replacement or another care provider.\u003C/p>"]
