Event booking entries created for failed payments

Question

We accept credit card payments on our event booking forms. In the event that the customer makes an error in entering their payment information, the page correctly detects the error and reports it.
However, attempt is seen as a "failed payment" and an event booking with a status of Failed is created for this event.
Is there a way to prevent failed attempts from creating an entry in the event booking list?

Answer 1

I've inserted the form onto the web app item detail page using the following code which references a .tpl file where the form is located:
<div id="booking-form">{module_booking,i,{tag_booking id}
template="/ModuleTemplates/Events/{tag_payment type}.tpl"}</div>
The form has the auto-responder turned on but as mentioned, when I test the form it doesn't send the contents of the auto-responder from the form, it sends something different as mentioned in the original post.
I actually saw a tutorial on this at the following site:
Handle Paid and Unpaid Event Registrations with Business Catalyst
It didn't mention the auto-responder though.
Maybe because of the way I've set it up, perhaps it's not possible to send the auto-responder from the original form, do you think?
