Ripped OffA 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?

EleccytrickcityThat's Electricity, obviously.
Not sure who my Mother ripped off here, but she had her supplier moved against her will - Took me a lot of shouting and screaming and "I know where you work" phonecalls before Yorkshire Electricity (as it was) admitted the mistake and took her off their records.
Thing was she wasn't on anyone's records. Anywhere.
For 2 years!
For reasons that escape me I made her get reconnected - something along the lines of if you wait too long you may get a bigger bill, etc.
She didn't get any kind of charge at all - so I made her get reconnected for no reason and she got no bill.
I was popular.
About as popular as British Gas in Ms Swipe's post I'd say :o)
(They installed my boiler fine BTW - even if they charged me as much as it costs to do Cherie Blair's hair - a LOT)
