    Hi is there anyway to incorporate SPAM protection such as reCAPTCHA into the service pre-booking?

    Hi Stephen,

    Welcome!
    The service pre-booking has a hidden honeypot form field that bots just fill in and the booking gets rejected. I can add an optional captcha too in the next update.
    We have found that it’s not spam bots making the bookings, but teenagers being silly. So real people who would fill in a captcha for a laugh anyway. Unfortunate and annoying and we delete silly looking bookings.

    Sorry but we are definitely getting hit with spam bots, mainly from hotmail.de accounts and wanadoo.fr email addresses
