Can Ya Hear Me Now?: British Man Allegedly Goes Berzerk, Destroys T-Mobile Shop Which Wouldn't Give Him a Refund on His Mobile Phone Contract!


I guess the folks at this T-Mobile store had never heard the phrase, "the customer is always right."  That mantra sort of gravitates against "no refund" policies in the first place.  And ESPECIALLY if you're dealing with this dude (link to full story at bottom)...

Cops in Britain says he's 42-year-old Jason Codner of Manchester/Salford, and he apparently has precious little tolerance for mobile phone outlets that won't refund him his dough when he's dissatisfied with the service.  Citing to some provision in the fine print of his contract's Terms and Conditions, workers at the T-Mobile refused to give this cat his refund. And that's when all hell broke loose...

YouTube video of the incident first shows Codner's alleged rampage getting off the ground in glorious fashion, as this hotheaded phone man first took to hitting up the joint's bread and butter -- the mobile phones. Looks like from the video that Codner yanked down virtually every display rack and phone in the entire store!

He also allegedly "methodically ripped out wall fixtures" and "overturned tables" until finally spotting the perfect device to help him put a real exclamation point on this piece of work...

Specifically, the video shows Codner blasting off the joint's fire extinguishers like he was Steve McQueen traipsing around the Towering Inferno!  Reportedly, "the havoc continues for several minutes" from there until one worker finally got the bright idea to call the cops.

Now this extinguisher-blowing big man may have to have to put out his fire down at the local Stir for awhile, since cops have dialed UP charges against the deranged cell man that include causing criminal damage and using threatening behavior.  And Lord help that hoosegow if it tries to hit this guy up with any extra service charges during his bit.

  1. It took them several minutes to call the cops?! Unbelievable! I would'a been on that phone at the first strike....there's no reasoning with a person who's tearing up the place, just call the cops.

  2. I, frankly, would have hesitated to call just like the workers did, especially once he started blasting off those fire extinguishers. But then again, I'm deranged like that.

  4. "Can You Here Me Now" was my original headline. I've corrected it. I type pretty fast, and often even proofreading I will miss such things as "here" vs "hear", "there" vs "their", and "its" vs "it's". A copy editor at a newspaper, I'll never be over here.

  5. Maybe they were frantically calling the cops on their T-Mobile phones and simply getting the same service issues that the rampager had?? Couldn't get through?

    IDK
