Have you ever lied to get your money back ..

Trading standards wouldn’t have helped unless the goods were faulty or not fit for purpose; any shop that gives a refund or exchange because you’ve changed your mind does so as a goodwill gesture, not because it is a statutory right.

I can’t recall lying to get a refund but I’ve had to stand my ground for faulty goods a few times, one example being a sweatshirt, bought on the Friday afternoon, put on for travelling, sitting on the train and feeling a draught to realise that the whole side seam had come apart! Returning it on the Monday to be told that I must have pulled it hard for it to come apart like that and it wasn’t the company policy to give refunds. I pointed out my statutory rights for faulty goods and asked to see the manager, the shop assistant phoned them, turned out the manager was watching me on cctv and refused to come down and told the staff member to refuse me a refund. So I stood there and told everyone who came to the checkout what had happened…I got my refund within 10 minutes! :lol:

I have to say that some of the things that people have said to me on trying to return things to my shop have been beyond belief sometimes, and I have given 1 refund for sheer audacity!

i once told a magistrate i needed my liecence for work
and only got fined
later when i didnt pay the fine i asked for time to pay because i was unemployed
:P

Can’t think of anything right now, maybe I never have :lol:
