Tesco's carpark Campbeltown today.

Postby jdcarra » Wed Jul 06, 2011 11:08 pm

Just on the off chance did anyone see a customer with a trolley smash the rear drivers side tail light on our red Nissan Primera Estate this afternoon and walk off without reporting the damage :evil: .
These things happen accidentally at times, but it would be courteous to own up and contact or leave a message for the owner.These light units do not come cheap nowadays.

Not much chance of that happening I'm afraid. A few years ago I went into tescos, a Sunday morning when it wasn't that busy, bought a paper, came out and the whole side of my car had a scratch. No one saw a thing! £300 worth of damage.

Know what you mean Eileen, same thing happened to us with our car in Bolgam Street and nobody admitted it. Accidents happen but worse when people don't admit them.

Ironically enough our wee fella was learning to go his bike and we went to Tesco through the lane at Lady Mary Row a couple of months ago and he swung in at the disabled bit and caught a car and scratched the side of a car. Couldn't believe it. We waited to see who would come out (while the fear and tears set in for the young fla!). No-one came out but went in and got them to announce it over the tannoy. A gentleman appeared and we told him what happened, gave our details and he phoned the next day to say it had polished out and there was a wee dent but not to worry about it. So honesty pays. :D

But very frustrating when it happens and no-one owns up!

Not as if it was a crack on the lens,but completely smashed.I did a patch up job last night as secondhand unit from a scrappy is going to cost £54 :x , not wishing to get any ticket from the law until replacement comes.
I'll tell the wife to take my tranny van in future,plenty of knocks and scrapes on it already so one more want make any difference :roll: .
Never did notice if CCTV covers the carpark area,if not its time it did for the vehicle bashers.

No such luck I'm afraid. They have a cctv pointed at the autobank. I went in and asked. At that time, they asked if a certain boy was hanging around the car park. I said he was and they told me he was banned from their premises and that was probably who had done it. So, I know who done it but had no proof. It happens to so many people. Those who take up two parking spaces maybe have the right idea.

You do not know who done it.
