Within 16 hours of publishing a report titled, 'She buys less, pays more', Sandra Sridhar is all smiles.
The Food World outlet in Kalyan Nagar III Block returned the excess amount swiped from her debit card. Sandra had purchased groceries worth Rs 1,075. While paying through the card, the counter girl had swiped twice - for Rs 1,075 and Rs 10,775. She also informed Sandra about the “goof-up” and promised to rectify it the next day. However, that never happened. On enquiring, the outlet staff said it was “not their fault” and she had to “check with the bank”.
On Thursday, Sandra was called and handed Rs 10,775 in cash, a bouquet and a gift wrapped along with an apology card.
