Hi, I am over 18 and I was shopping at a major store last week,
I bought about 12 items but one of the items I threw into my trolley landed directly into the carrier bags I had brought to store.
I was stopped by security exiting the store and taken to the back room where I was videoed and had my driving licence taken for ID and a CR check
. The police were not called as the item was under £20 in value
, I was told I was/would be banned for 12 months
and that an RLP company would be in touch to recover £80 - £120.
I have two questions:
1. Should I pay the RLP company
2. I am travelling to America in the summer, can any of this affect my visa application?
Many Thanks
Brenda
