A few things
1) I have sent through my bank details so, people stop saying "just take the refund..."
but 2) this is pretty much the first time she has acknowledged me since it happened so no I'm not obsessive but over and above the refund I am actually interested in getting to the bottom of what the hell happened - why I ended up sitting in a coffee shop for hours on end like a doos, waiting to hear from her.
and 3) related to that - a lot of what she has said is just simply not true. So yes, I'm going to respond. What is the point of 'naming and shaming' shitty behavior if after that the guilty party gets to respond with whatever bullshit they feel like and the wronged party must then just shut up?

@vox - I booked the room prior so yes room fees are still payable as the room could've been used by another lady if I didn't book it, and it was a late afternoon booking,So it was still payable as the house also had to make its money. Outbooking fees are payable to venue/house owners. Stipulated rule at the house I worked from and no infact I didn't make extra money as my fee was R1500 per hour and an outbooking Fee towards the house was R300 per hour which meant I had to pay R600 towards the house outbooking Fee. I'm sure the house owner will gladly confirm to this.

In my personal opinion no scammer has ever offered to pay back the money they scammed from someone.
But I can be wrong.
Has anyone ever been refunded by a scammer?

"I care *MORE* about the friendship than the money, but won't accept losing both" is a perfectly reasonable position,which is perfectly compatable with OP saying "I'll let it go to maintain the friendship".
Maybe this is where we just agree to disagree because I don't believe a real friend would say "let's rekindle our 'friendship' or you pay me". I believe, and you can disagree of course, that a real friend (in this very specific context) would accept the demise of the friendship and not let the payment of this supposed "debt" be contingent in any way on the rekindling of the friendship.
I mean thinking about it now..."if I can't have you then I want my money back" is quite shitty.

Part 3. Call her out on the untruths with proof though so we can all see?
