This is a question Ripped Off

A friend who worked in a second hand record shop told us about a Japanese guy who regularly bought "rare" records in their shop. One time, he was looking for a signed copy of "Never Mind the Bollocks".

They didn't have one. Four people and one magic marker later, they did. Ker-ching!

How have you been ripped off? Who did you rip off? Are you a British Gas customer?

I was once ripped off
by OnDigital. Remember them? They kept charging me for their service long after I cancelled it. The reason they gave is that the collection guy came to pick up the box but the set was incomplete. Problem is, no-one actually came. Anyway, after much toiling, my credit card company got my money back. As a rule of thumb I always do my online purchases with a credit card as these are the only type of card that allows you to do a chargeback!


Tinypod. No wonder you got pissed off repeating yourself. You instilled no confidence in the customer. You did not acknowledge that he wanted the cheapest ticket. Also, you were being pedantic when they asked if a single was cheaper than a return. Yes, we all know that a single is cheaper than a return, but, that person wanted to know if two singles were cheaper than a return. Its attitudes like that that make dealing with some call centres increasingly difficult
