Years ago my mobile phone went missing. It was a spare one so I didn't notice it. It was a Motorolla, blue facia with a pop up aerial. Anyway, I eventually came to use it and couldn't find it anywhere. I decided to phone it, and see what the score was when I got the voicemail message 'Hi, this is Nathan Chandler, please call back when I am free'. Which was strange as this was the voice of my best friends little Brother, so I knew right away he had stolen it and his Brother was using it. Talk about rub it in your face. I went round there and confronted him and he became very embaressed. He eventually told me his little Brother had stolen the phone which I knew was a lie. His little Bro' was a nice kid and wouldn't do that. Eventually he came clean and we fell out.

Years later at a party with my Girlfriend he was there and we got talking and I noticed him and my Girlfriend talking and when I went over they went quiet. At the time I never thought much of it but after we broke up she admitted she kissed him when he went out for a fag. So he took the piss out of me twice now, which isn't very nice. I'm going to run the cunt over when I next see him. It's ate at me inside knowing this.

Yeah, A very good friend and long term flatmate still owes me £250 in bills a year on...

Odds on seeing that again?

As said, money is the fastest way to fuck up a friendship, I just refuse to do people favours nowadays.

When my mum passed away I loaned a total of £360 to a mate of mine to help her out with a phone bill debt and to pay the deposit on her car insurance so she wouldn't be without. Despite the promises of "I will pay you it back, you know I will", she then never bothered with me for over 2 years. I was pregnant at the time and renovating my mum's old house to live in. Despite the fact that this so called mate had only lived round the corner from me and knew where I lived she never came to see me or the house, or my baby, even though I had done so much, in addition to the money for her and her daughter.

When she did txt me to say she wanted to come see me I told her to f**k off and that I wasn't starting that again.

A local garage owner who'd employed her and she'd taken advantage of the good nature of his brother told me that if I had paid £300 to get rid of her, then I'd done well.....

you may know him baz? Drives a moonstone 3dr with engine built by Harvey Gibbs.

Me missus got him a contract dongle on vodaphone for him, and admittingly paid for 12 months. Then he used a load of GB (25gb in total) his maximum was 3gb and got charged £15 for each gb used.

He hasnt paid it us back totalling £368-things tight with missus on maternity pay etc. The best thing about it is his missus won £9000 on deal or no deal.

Bought themselves a nice £1200 camera, but we aint seen a penny of money owed to my missus.



Just glad we were not able to complete a £3000 loan for em as they wanted us to be guarantors for em. It was only refused cos missus was on maternity so take home pay wasnt the same.

Should be grateful for little mercies. I got out light i think.



I gave every opportunity to get things sorted but enver returned my callls, and never made the ffort at national day. Shame cos i thought a lot of him as a mate. Obviously it wasnt a 2 way thing sadly.

Lets face it making money on something your selling is one thing but a friend you trust and needs help rips you off is another.

Im very surprised as i thought him to be honest thought he was a good bloke too

I know i should mate but it aint me mate, just me nature pal What can ido if he wont call etc, wont speak caused me and me best mates TonyF and Richrs2k to fall out over him and cost me my reputation at the bcrsoc.com owners siteHe nearly had a fight with me mate rich in the pub.

They cancelled the direct debit to vodaphone 3 weeks ago cos of the argument we had over it all.
