    Hi,

    I trust this message finds you well. We are currently exploring the implementation of a booking system for our client's esteemed auto body repair business. Their intention is to offer predefined half-hour time slots to customers, allowing them to book and make advanced payments for their desired slots. It is crucial for us to collect comprehensive customer information, including detailed car specifications.

    At present, we are considering two types of bookings. The first pertains to customers seeking assistance with insurance claims, while the second focuses on personal claims. To ensure clarity from the outset, we require a distinct indication of "Insurance" or "Personal" on the booking form. Upon selection, the process will progress accordingly. The personal claim bookings will incur a fee. On the other hand, insurance claim bookings will not involve any charges as we will be managing the insurance claim on the client behalf.

    Regarding the booking forms, we need the inclusion of tick boxes or, ideally, a user-friendly interface resembling the one found on the following website: https://revive-uk.com/request-a-quote/. This will enable customers to provide a concise description of the repair requirements and easily indicate the specific areas of damage on a graphical representation of their vehicle. Although we understand that this feature might not be available at present, we strongly recommend its consideration for future implementation, as numerous bodyshops have expressed interest in utilising such a system.

    Furthermore, we would like to inquire if it would be possible for customers making payments to utilise our existing merchant account, integrated within our WordPress platform (WooCommerce).

    We greatly appreciate your attention to this matter and sincerely hope that our proposed requirements can be fulfilled.

    Thank you for your time and consideration.

    Best regards,

    Mark
