EDOliver Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Hi people.About a week ago I picked my car up from the garage following it's succesful MOT (phew) and descovered that ?2 was missing from the change I keep in the ashtray. I'm 99.9% sure the money was there and I know it's only ?2 but I hate the thought that some thieving little s*** has taken my hard earned cash. I bottled it at the time and drove away. I've been taking my car there for years and they've always been brilliant so I didn't want to rub them up the wrong way and potentially have to find a new garage! Would you have said something at the time or was I right to let it go??

womanofdulwich Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 i dont leave any money in the car or cds etc. if it did go, it could have been anyone there- or they sometimes leave them un locked and thieves are opportunists. Let it go- Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/16055-what-would-you-have-done/#findComment-415590 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narnia Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Might they have left it unattended and unlocked on the street? If so that's a bit careless of them. If that might have happened you could mention (next time you use them) that something was stolen from your car without making a big issue of it and without implying it was them.

The Minkey Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 It was ?2. Let it go. Don't leave anything in the car next time. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/16055-what-would-you-have-done/#findComment-415611 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarot Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 If the garage gave good service, I wouldnt bother to change it.I would put the two pound loss down to exsperiance,no shame in not challenging it, maybe it was a someone wanting a bag of chips and thought your two quid was a tip.,beacause not many people leave things in their cars when they go for service.Forget it , a good lesson for only two quid.

DJKillaQueen Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I'd have loaded up two Uzis and packed a few grenades and gone back there and scarred (no typo error there) the theiving scumbag into a confession personally ;-) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/16055-what-would-you-have-done/#findComment-415906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
