How did it leave him (or should that be you) out of pocket

He received an item which was sent to an incorrect address by mistake - the next day "sold it at a car boot sale" - seems no attempt was made to find out where it came from, other than ringing Royal Mail who said he could keep it (which i find higly unlikely that they would say this with out checking into it).

At the least i would expect that they would check to make sure they delivered the item to the correct address and look into to it which would proberly take them at least a few days to investigate. (It was a special delivery item so they i doubt they would just say keep it, SD items get treated with much more investigation than one 5 min phone call).

Again - why did you/he not look into where the item may have came from.

Which he will in turn have no access to i expect, so 100% useless.

What on earth happened to honesty?

It's pretty damn obvious "your colleague" didn't order it, so why sell something "your colleague" hasn't ordered? Why not ring/email the person that sent "your colleague" it and tell them to do something about it? Would have been a darn site more honest!

And as for "your colleague's" excuse of not knowing wether he'd ordered it or not, or whatever the awful excuse was - if you don't know what you've ordered and what you'll be receiving you need help.

If "your colleague" sent something to me through the mail, perhaps worth £100 or more, I'm sure you'd see fit the right thing to do would be to sell it on at a car boot sale.

So to summarise that all - get a grip. "your colleague" is in the wrong, and needs a damn slap for being such a fool.

Explicit, you're a good man. Taking your time out to help the OP and offering good, solid, reliable, professional advice is just the icing on the cake.

You're a good role model for us all. :)

(and giving me a good read at that)

Oh the irony that someone with such apparently questionable morals when it comes to honesty and predilection for ripping someone off for a quick buck, no questions asked, should work for a bank or insurance company...

.... alledgedly... :D

I personally would be happy to fork out a few quid to see him taken to court and taught a few morals.

This thread should be archived once it's seen it's course. Bloody fantastic. :cool:

This is in no small part due to Explicit, his knowledge of UK legislature has given us more grounding to have a go and bigjohn and his colleague. ;) It's also really nice of you to be advising Hyper on this matter, and I hope this all works out for the best. :)

And bigjohn.. Please just admit that you're Mr Green... We all know it's you and we all know who informed you of this thread's existence.. A pretty lame thing to do, but I'd be lying if I said it didn't add to the quality of reading.

I call BS on the recording anyway.... I work in a call centre for a bank and one number could go to a possible 200+ people. (no direct lines on the floor iirc)

How hyper got direct line to mr green, in a call centre on the sales floor (the recorded phones) i have no idea???.

You misinterpreted me. I'm saying if everyone did this kind of thing, the court system would have so much of a backlog it'd be useless.

Fortunately for the justice system the majority of individuals are not greedy callous opportunists.
 
Hi all,

Thanks for all the great support and I am really surprized at how much this topic has took off. I am going to stick by my guns and send him a message stating the £60 isnt enough and as already stated in the letter I want either the card returned or £120.

I will keep you all updated ;)

you'd be suprised that the person who sent the link isn't who you think it is - if my assumptions are correct that is.
