Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

If I pay for X and don't receive what I paid for, is that not theft? If the police are going to get involved then it should go both ways as a company stealing from customers is every bit as wrong as customers stealing from a company

It could very well be an innocent mistake made by an over-worked, underpaid staffer.

Do you really think the best way to resolve that situation is to call some bored gun-toting police officer to wave their metaphorical dick at them so you don't have to be nice and ask for something instead of demanding satisfaction like a medieval fop?
