Desperate - ripped off on my credit card in a lapdancing club

neas

These places are expensive though... at a guess 4 girls for an hour would be about 1k ish wouldnt it?

4 hours of 'fun'=4k

Some people do silly things when !!!!!!, you must've been legible to give your card pin to someone at some point... CCTV would prove it.

What would you say if CCTV showed you willingly spending the money?

lol, "Life is something that happens while your busy planning other things"
either your a lying or you were drugged, ghb would have the effect you described but i understand it is virtually impossible to detect afterwards, it would be worth contacting the police, if what you say is true then your not the first person to get done and won't be the last, i would be tearing off my "friends" arm and beating him to death with the soggy end by now

Sadly it's on the receipts...

But I'd rather not say yet.

Why dont you want to warn others of a potentially dodgy club?

On the criminal front: The police are unwilling to look into it unless I make a specific allegation that my drink was spiked, so I'm just considering whether to get a drug test and whether it'll show up so long after the incident...

In that case, I definitely tells the coppers I thought I was drugged then !!!

paul, I should think that the club has a fair share of "heavies" and I would myself be most reluctant to name and shame on a world wide forum. Plus, it may jeopardise any case that was finally brought against them. To be honest I have no faith at all in the police now having sought some help myself - they seem to want to do as little paperwork as possible and if they arent standing there while the crime is committed then they reckon it wont stand up to CPS scrutiny.

can you at least say what county it's in?

I complain about the CSA and how incompetent they are ALL THE TIME so why can't the OP name and shame?

he's not given us his personal details that would enable the club to identify him

it is VERY unusual for anyone to get so drunk that they forget everything

even when drunk you very rarely do things that are so out of character.

Actually alcohol, which is a drug in its own right, affects different people in different ways.

I have certainly suffered a loss of memory through alcohol consumption before, and I have seen people's characters change significantly through alcohol consumption.

So true - I used to get drunk on white wine, and although I wasn't totally wrecked I struggled to remember the latter half of the night

I even stood up and did karaoke once - something I have always sworn I would never, ever do !

All right, I take back my earlier comments. It is just that I have never known anyone get so drunk that they do really unusual things, maybe others have.

I must have led a very sheltered life. I think I'll go out and get hammered.:beer: :beer:
