Tax refund.

I didn’t make enough money for the year to be taxed so I got all of it back.

I hope to get a refund for my train ticket from last Thursday where the train was just cancelled.

Online request didn’t work, so I have to go to the train station today and waste even more of my time.

My refund was for a pack of tomatoes, boring! So I’ll tell you a funny refund story I heard today. Friends, mostly a bit squiffy (driver aside) were trying to book a hotel at their destination on booking.com. There were rooms available in hotel A. “Check the reviews” said Ms Sober. “Nah, just book it!” said Ms Squiffy.

Booking made, they tried to contact the hotel. No answer. Reviews were AWFUL. “Rats behind the bar” type awful. Fast forward to arrival aaaand the hotel was closed. They moved on to hotel B, where they learned that hotel A was shut because the owner was in jail for repeated violation of food hygiene standards.

So they called booking.com for a refund. “We can’t refund you until we’ve heard from the proprietor.” “The proprietor is in PRISON.” “Well we’d still like to give a chance to get in touch.”

It took them weeks to get their money back. Moral of the story is always try to book directly with the hotel.

I just had a look and apparently it’s back in business.

Review from this month: “Refused to stay, checked in 3 rooms & all checked out within 10mins of arrival, the disgusting place is a health hazard, taps not working, mould all over walls, the place needs closing down.”

Owner: “Sorry this not true just looking for refunds.”

I guess technically a refund? I returned tools I rented from O’Reilly to fix the timing chain on my truck. 250,000 miles and still runs like a champ, just ignore the noisey lifter haha

Bought a really nice TV a couple of years ago. About a month later, the manufacturer had a really big price drop. Microcenter has a really nice 60 or 90 day price guarantee so I popped into the local store and got about $800 back.

A salad.

Was waiting for my flight out of LAX, so I grabbed a salad from the closest spot. $20, but whatever. Open it up and the ham smelled sour and all the iceberg lettuce was slimy.

I’ve never asked for a refund on a salad before, but for 20-fucking-dollars it should have been chopped up and prepped that very day. Yuck.

Last week I bought one of those giant vacuum insulated travel mugs (not a Stanley) from a discount variety store, along with a bunch of other things. After I paid, the cashier asked “do you want the receipt?”, I normally say no, but this time for some reason I said yes. After I left the store, my kids needed to use the restroom, so while they went I sat down on the bench and absently looked through the receipt in my hand. I immediately noticed I got charged twice for the mug. The cashier must’ve double scanned it. I went back to the store, showed a manager my receipt, and they refunded me the difference.

That was technically my last refund, but the last product I actually returned was a set of tws (true-wireless-stereo) IEMs (fancy earbuds). They were a brand new model just released with great reviews, I bought them from Amazon, received them, and used them about a week. During that week I noticed every time they were in my ears, my ear canals got super irritated and my ears felt warm. And whenever I removed them the insides of my ears would be crazy itchy for hours afterwards. It got to a point after a week of use that my ear canals would swell and close up about 15 minutes after I put the earbuds in my ears. Didn’t take a rocket surgeon to work out I was allergic to whatever material that earphone was made of. I still had the box and all the packaging, submitted a return to Amazon with the comment “my ears are allergic to those earphones” and they accepted it no problems, I got a full refund.

College payments. Received a $1500 grant payout three weeks into the semester, which left me with about $100 to claim.

Many months ago I got a refund of around $250 on an online course because I changed my mind after my purchase. It was an amazing course but I didn’t see myself using the knowledge in the future. Good thing I got a refund in time.

I bought a power supply for a second hand monitor and found that the 90-degree angle on the plug meant it couldn’t actually go into the socket. I took it back to the shop and the owner offered to solder a straight plug onto the adaptor for me - but couldn’t find one to use, so he gave me my money back.

Govets, they say they have products in stock but they will never ever ship.

They also want a driver’s license picture and a selfie for a fucking server part

Steam. A zombie game I got didn’t perform very well on my Deck.

eBay purchase. Seller claimed “a failure to update stock inventory in our warehouse”
