Company Thinks It Can Get Away With Hidden Costs Until One Father Proves Them Very Wrong

Stories where companies take advantage of customers never get old. Especially when the customers get sweet, sweet revenge. Who doesn’t like a nice case of “sticking it to the Man?” So, following this tradition, here’s another story of how a savvy customer dealt with an entitled company.

The Redditor predtech posted his tale of retribution on the r/ProRevenge subreddit. It all started quite innocently – with ordering a Christmas gift for his son. When the gift arrived, however, the parents saw some extra customs charges that weren’t there when they placed the order. Not willing to let anyone ruin his little boy’s Christmas or walk over his rights as a customer, the OP turned to social media to get some justice.

Luckily, Bored Panda was able to have a chat with the OP. The Redditor kindly told us more about his motivation and what Irish customers should be aware of when ordering from a British retail site. Read our short interview with him below!
