saint dave Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Went to a diner on a visit to Edinburgh last week , was okay not great. When I asked if I could put a tip on a debit card , the server told me it had already been added to the bill , when I looked it said on receipt gratuity not service charge. First time this has happened to me and thought it odd that they put it straight on without checking , I usually leave a decent tip but I'd like to decide how much etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happened to me in the Spanish place on George St. Told them I wasn't paying it. The food wasn't good either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a trooper. I'd be fine without one, but the wean insisted I get another for some reason I forget. It's hardly ever used. Sometimes I do fancy one of those supreme rubbery microwave burgers they sell at ASDA (Feasters?) and I have to take myself in hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got approached by one of these in Princes Street one December Whipping out some club Christmas raffle tickets I'd been given to flog I said "You'll no be interested in these I take it because I'm not interested in yours" Chugger: "Fair point" and he left me alone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
