    Honesty and understanding. It’s as simple as that. Accept what has happened but don’t focus on it. Apologise for the inconvenience, touch on it lightly and give a brief explanation. Focus your attention on resolving the matter and make it blindingly obvious that you will do all you can to restore their faith. Actions speak louder than words! It’s proven; I’ve done it time and time again. If you are efficient and effective enough in putting it right, they will forget it went wrong to start with!
