Hi guys, I am having huge problem as over a month ago I went to local garage to change my tires. Day after I got the car back I've noticed that fuel is leaking. Then I had a look underneath the car and realised that the fuel tank is smashed from a jack.

What sort of car is it? Changing tyres is quite an easy thing, I would be surprised if it was done changing your tyres.

You have zero proof that is when it happened.

It's Toyota RAV4, my partner grew up in garage and he knows his onions. There is even a mark from the jack on the tank. Of cours I have a proof, my partner was filling up the whole tank every few days and paying by card so his account showing since it happend he was filling up for f10. He has a pictures of a jack's in the garage and I do believe it might be confirmed by the other garage how the damage was done. 

I paid for tyres by debit card 

Well make your mind up first your saying that your partner was filling the whole tank every few days and now...

Listen guys, I dont understand why are you so mean. I asked for more legal advice and you started speculating if it actually happend or whatever else.as I know It was hydraulic jack, The One with long hand and wheels. He Just lifted the car carelessly and there is a bent in the tank and the seal gone. I hope you never going to be in situation where you have to do what you shouldnt as you have no other options. Now we got a second car. He was filling up the petrol for a few quids as WE HAD to use the car. Thanks for worrying about the tires. They are fine... Now I See I am not gonna find any proper advice amongst people like you who knows their best... 

But now your saying they only filled up a few quid... so you have completely changed your story and your wondering why people are questioning you...

Are you for serious now? Is it so hard to notice that English is not my first language so I could write something in a messed way... You forgot to bold the last few words. "my partner was filling up the whole tank every few days and paying by card so his account showing since it happend he was filling up for f10." It means he was filling up the whole tank every few days before it happend and since it happend he was filling up for max f10" Is it really so hard to get it? Anyway as I've said. There is no point to ask for an advice here as there is to many grumpy people, asking thousand questions not related to the subject and judging...

Thank to all of you whose said something helpful. Probably will try to get a chargeback first and if not I will go to small claim court.

I had no idea until now that English wasn't your first language and just took everything you write at face value, a lot of people with English as their first language can't write as well as you can!.
I had no idea what "f10" means and just assumed it was a typo, but now it seems you meant to put "£" instead of "f".

But going from filling up the car to only put in small amounts at a time doesn't really prove anything, all it shows is the car is being used less.
