What about the other people that were with them, they must have known what was happening and even if they didn't, when they saw their faces on the news they could have said something. It happened so many times.

It's the small businesses I feel sorry for in these situations, restaurants, pubs etc. were so hard hit during Covid. Often the people we read about, dining and dashing order vast quantities of food and drinks. It was reported these two ordered steaks, two puddings and food they didn't, in the end, even eat. hmm

Blimey, I’ve just read all the details online. Shoplifting, credit card fraud etc etc.
Quite an operation!

Let's see them dine and dash in there 🤣
Serves them right. And they should be made to pay back all the places they owe money to, double!!

Are these the ones who had children, if so where are the children I wonder ?
Being looked after by other family I would think.

The lovely countryside pub we go to had to start asking for credit card numbers as so many people had walked out without paying.

Excellent result. What kind of example are these adults setting for their children?

I’ve reported the fool above me.

Indeed. And the Police discovered they had over 40 false IDs at their home. No wonder they were so cocky dining out! They assumed it had gone so well over several months and with fake IDs they assumed they were invincible. Wonder what their neighbours think? Oh, the shame of it all.

Wonder if they will like the food where they are. . Such selfish behaviour could break a business, they deserve what they got.

Good job too, I don't know what possesses people to behave like this.

Can’t find the original thread, but a couple from Wales who dined and dashed 5 times last year have been sentenced to 8 and 12 months in prison today.
