unaccommodating
Not willing to help
Unaccommodating describes someone unwilling to help or make adjustments for others.
An unaccommodating host ignores guests' needs; an unaccommodating policy offers no flexibility.
The word suggests unhelpfulness that may be deliberate or simply indifferent: The clerk was unaccommodating when I asked about a refund.
