    No, hes just a recognised TROLL Whom also goes by the name of dangeroussports, unfortunatley for him, most MSE users are onto him. just click on his profile and click IGNORE, irradicating him completely, if you need further proof of him just click his post history, that should be enough proof. ;)

    There,s no point arguing the score now!.Personally I would have gone to the papers about you.
    The OP stated they offered you £60 now and the rest in a few days!.

    But why is the OP's statement more valid than the flip side's. The flip side has already said the OP misinterpreted the request for money. Is it more likely to be a money grabbing evil vet or a simple case of miscommunication (the kind of thing that happens everyday)? Why take the OP's word for everything. I'm not saying they're lying but it's easy to misremember what was actually said especially when you've come away with a certain mindset already. I'm surprised at the number of assumptions being made here when the only two people present were the OP and the flip side and even they have different versions of events. I personally can't see why either version is more valid than the other so the "truth" whatever that may be is probably something in between.

    It sounds like then the op was more interested in having a strop than listening to the vet for solutions and stormed off. Which always happens with people on here with problems, it's so important to have their strop that nothing, even a solution, will get in the way!
  • Its not about control, power or who,s having a strop.
    It was about getting Daisy treated the vet refused to administer any pain killing drugs or treatment due to the OP only having £60 and not the full amount.Simple as!. NO STROPS.Bet he drinks Horlicks
    The mismanagement of the clinic,the receptionist should be given clearer instructions,eg bring credit card or cash

    Wouldn't be an unreasonable assumption based on the info that the dog had a broken leg. :rolleyes:

    Right.......................
    payment at the time of treatment was requested which was in my opinion misinterpreted by the owner as meaning up front. after that things deteriorated, the consult ended abruptly and the owner left with the dog.

    So how do you know the op's right? Were you there?

    Yes

    Either you haven't read the whole thread or you've just missed the bit about "the flip side" IS the vet in question.
