You should also use the data from your payment gateway and any other sources to reconcile the data presented by the RomanCart booking system.

In this instance the holiday will not be booked even though the customer may have paid you the money. You should make regular checks on your Payment Gateway system and your bank account to make sure that all payments are accounted for. There is a message on the checkout page of the Booking system informing customers that the holiday is not booked unless they receive an email with the subject of 'Booking Confirmation'. We would advise that you require presentation of said email as proof of the holiday booking particularly in the event of a dispute.
