If the OP didn't have a secure place to leave it, what would you have suggested that they did with it?
I would suggest the OP gets a trailer and take it back to the hire company, or demand that the hire company come and collect it.
Someone with a name like "thebritishbrickie" you would assume hes a brick layer or something, so its not gonna be hard to get a trailer.
Both parties are to blame.0 -

Both parties are to blame.Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.
Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

Just confusing tenses. He obviously posted what he thinks op should have done prior to it being stolenhalibut2209 wrote: »pcombo, could you explain then, as I certainly don't understand.0 -
Assuming that the hire company dropped it off, then I don't see how it being stolen is the OP's fault, as he notified them that the door was missing and therefore it was a security risk. He can't be expected to return it - it was up to the hire company to do that if they also felt it was a risk.Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -

Everyone seems to be missing a vital question (that I can't see answered).
IF the digger was delivered without a door AND he complained, BUT THEN went on to use it, he has accepted it as is.
Thats the vital question here and what a judge will ask if/when it goes to court.

How about remembering your divinity?
How about unabashedly bawling your eyes out?
How about not equating death with stopping?0 -

A door missing wouldn't stop it working though.
Even if the OP had insurance, the missing door would make it invalid.
I bet it's a scam by the hire company who have stolen it themselves! They did know it was there after all...Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
