Default How do i get money back?

Hey a few months ago i leant this lady i worked with £25. I know its not a lot of money, and if it was a friend i wouldnt be bothered but she is refusing to give it back to me and abusing me when i ring up saying im hassling her family cos they fones rings and its distressing? and she called me a fucking bitch when i rang and said shed send it but conveniently its the only item ever sent to this address thats got lost... coincidence? its not so much the money im worried about but the principle that i dont see why she should just treat me like this, shes 35 and im only 19 so its like she doesnt give a shit and shes very highly strung and now wont answer her fone, ive been round to her house a few times but shes never in... what can i do? im going to uni in a week and im reluctant to just forget about this as shes caused me so much stress and hassle... ive spent over £10 in fuel and calls trying to get hold of her... what can i do?

thanks for ur help,

Katie xx

Difficult one.......... Personally I rarely lend people money for this very reason (except family, very close friends etc). It depends on how you view your relationship with this person i.e. expose them to others and hope they get embarrased and pay up etc, etc .......... or just smack her in the mouth and tell her she's bang out of order then take £50 from her purse

without sounding rude.. shes not really my kind of person. i think its a background thing, but hers isnt something ive experienced before. i guess im a little naive about these things... the society that i was brought up in was so honest and trustworthy that i didnt really appreciate that people would be quite happy to take money from u like that... to be honest even tho its only £25 its completely thrown my trust for people, which is pretty sad. thing is she seemed really nice and was really nice about my boyfriend and now its like shes jsut thrown it back in my face and taking the piss. shes on benefits and stuff but she buys all desinger clothes and make up and wants to buy a bmw, and besides, this isnt her money to spend. it really hurts me that people are like this in this world.

If you still work with her confront her very loudly in front of other workers and the boss. Usually that'll get them to give you the money if not everyone will know what kind of person she is and always keep bringing it up. Sooner or later she's going to get tired of hearing about it and give you the money just to shut you up. Either that or she takes a swing at you then that gives you a reason to beat her ass.

i left a message on this womans answer fone pleading for her to give me my money back etc... and im not an aggressive or argumentative person. she has just rung me back saying that she has no money and that shes pregnant and cant pay me back cos she has no money... yet she gets child benefit and shes working. and she was screaming at me down the fone and saying all this stuff about how she was going to call teh police on me etc... and that i was causing her stress when she was pregnant, and i pointed out that the last thing i needed after losing my boyfriend was this stress... so my mum told her she would call the baliffs and this woman went mad telling me that my mum was a fucking cunt ( a word i find possible the most disgusting) and a whore etc.... and she told me that i didnt deserve my money back for hassling her... ive rung every few days occasionally leaving an answer phone message and shes never rung me backk,....

this has really upset me... some people are horrible.

these people are called "Thieving gypsy bastids" round my way. just send her address and phone number off with a questionaire, do not tick the little box at the bottom.the amount of junk mail and phone calls from sellers will drive her insane.

Sign her up with a membership in a 'swingers club' and subscribe her to all sorts of gay porn stuff.

Get her name and address on as many email and regular mailing lists as you can

Order pizzas to be delivered to her house at all hours

Take the valve stems out of her tires and sit them on her windshield wiper

4 flats, no towing.....but a compressor solves the problem

If you work with her, see if you can send your boss nasty messages (complaining) from her computer account

Make it worth her giving the money back ASAP

Why did you lend her the money?

Its hard enough borrowing money off mates let alone someone you dont reall know.



Shit! Just remembered I owe my mate a fiver from March!

Sorry to hear this and sadly there are some real losers out there who think that they can just blag their cash, benefits, TV, etc without having to work for it.

Don't stress about it, though - neither her or the amount of cash involved is worth it.

Is there someone else at work, that you both know/respect, who could be an intermediary? If not, it wouldn't be unreasonable to tell any other workmates what has happened so they don't make the same mistake as you, though this gets quite close to slander territory and could come down to your word against hers.

I don't think the phone abuse, signing on to mailing lists etc is the best way to solve this, as it most likely won't get your cash back even if it does give you some satisfaction, but if you do go down that route it may be best to let some dust settle first so she doesn't know it is down to you.

*UPDATE* hmmm... i dont work with this woman anymore, but i finally managed to keep her on the fone long enough to say that i may be young but im not stupid and there is no way she is getting away with paing me £5 per month, i couldnt give a monkeys is shes on benefits. she finally said i could go round at 12 today to get my money.

12.30 comes and shes still not there... i ring... and ring... so i leave a message... 15 mins later i get a call saying... (wait for it)...

shes her friends birthing partner and shes gone into labour... and i should be grateful that shes come all the way outside to ring me?!!!

this woman is from cuckoo land!!! she has little fairies in her garden!

so apparently ive got to go round tomorrow to collect it 'first thing'....

i wont hold my breath...

if she doesnt pay up tomorrow i will have a paddy. a big one.

Although it would be great for you to post her number I don't think it's fair on you, she'd be pretty pissed off with you and would probably realise it was you after 100+ calls, but that would only enfuriate her,I'm afraid life does suck sometimes and this just may be one of those times where you just gotta think of it not as a mistake, but a lesson learnt.
Sorry, but I think you're just gonna have to leave it hun, maybe tell her mates, but don't let it upset ya,
Best of luck,
Andy

haha great... so maybe its me with the fairies living at the bottom of my garden in my little perfect little world!! i guess maybe i am.. but my school taught me to be trusting... then again it was an all girls school in the country hehe...

no i want this money back out of principle... but im not an aggressive or confrontational person.. and this woman is a psycho!!!

if she doesnt give it to me tomorrow im taking the above advise and getting her subscriptions to as many ann summers /passion 8 / lovehoney websites i can find and maybe if she spent more time pleasuring herself she would learnt to leave the boys alone and then wouldnt end up pregnant and therefore unable to face up to her responsibilities...

ever seen that ad where the dumper truck backs up with the junk mail to this guys house? i want to reenact that

Places like that RULE Gotta love nieve posh girls

Esp when they private schools as they "generally" breed fitter girls cause even ugly blokes with lots of money often have fit wives, whereas ugly skint blokes have ugly skint kids that go to normal schools like the munter you lent the cash to

My missus been at private girls schools in the countryside all her life, a previous bird had too.

As a side note of interest i had sex in a 6th form study room of a private girls boarding school in the countryside last week

Me?? The fifteenth Duke of Whimbim? alone? in a girls boarding school dormatary? at this hour?

There are some scum out there... 'never a lender or a borrower be'

You could take out an advert in the local paper warning others about this woman, perhaps even include a photo of the witch...

Sometimes its worth spending a little to get even with someone....

Alternatively.

If she's working and claiming benefits ring the DSS and grass her up... I think you might get a Community Action Trust Reward for that...

Good Luck....
