RedM Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Sounds like the time my TV went in for repair. It came back fixed. A week later I get a phone-call apologising for the delay but they've lost my television. I waited until they turned up with the repacement before telling them the truth.

Soonto_HAS_soop Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I've always thought the same of banks and companies recouping money, but I was talking to an accountant today, who's BOSS was known to of lost £7,000,000 in 8 hours. It never was recovered and was written off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-NEMIE Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 leave it alone for 6 months and then decide if they contact you, you didnt realise it was there . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I'm sure I've heard that in a case like this you don't have to legally return it for 12 months if they ask for it back. If that's true, and I haven't just made it up, play the stock market or something and keep the rewards for yourself before paying back what you owe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
