The Issue:
Kimberly Sherman was not laughing after she said the Comedy ZOne in Charlotte
billed her last week for dinners of 2 friends the club says walked out without paying.
Shermans party of 10 got separate checks. A friend left without paying after
waiting almost 30 minutes for a corrected bull, Sherman said. Service that night
was poor, with several people receiving their food an hour late, she said.
Sherman, who paid her $32 tab with a checkcard, found the next day her account had
been charged for the $34 meal of the friend who left without paying. She was also
charged for the $22 dinner of another person at her table, someone who paid in cash, Sherman said.
Her friend should not have walked out on the bill, said Sherman, who works in the Observer's database marketing dept. But she said the club should not have charged HER account.
Has anyone ever ate and ran? Or know someone that does it all the time?
I think you would do it if you was **** one night and felt like living on the edge. gotta be a nice size group though, and don't let anybody in tha crew pay for anything w/credit card!!
i skipped out once on the bill. it wasn't even a high bill, probably like 3 bucks or less at the waffle house. it was pretty crowded after this skating party and usher walked in there. everybody was distracted and it took me forever to get like one waffle and a drink and they gave everybody a bill except for me. so i just dipped out.
