    Don't worry, the shop will cover the cost of this and other 'compensation' claims by putting up their prices...........

    Yawn!
    The shop should behave lawfully/train staff adequately etc....
    Moreover, the amount this company pay out is miniscule compared to their turnover. There heating an lighting costs and diesel costs will dwarf any compo bill/s.

    Well you COULD just tell us how much you had saved at, say the end of March. (Update your sig)

    And what you expect your balance to be come the end of April;)

    because, no doubt you have been sworn to secrecy;)

    Glad it was resolved but I would love to know how much hush money they gave you.

    Are we talking

    a) 3 figures
    b) low 4 figures (less than 5k)
    c) high 4 figures

    I was hoping this thread would persuade me to go your route but without knowing exactly how they resolved it i would still take it straight to the Police.

    I'm not convinced all they offered was money either because you could have got a lot more dragging it out if that was the only motivation.

    I suspect that it is sufficient for the citizen to have very significant proof (which they clearly did not have in this case).

    I was taught that the only acceptable proof was actually witnessing the offence.
