Hi there, I’m having sleepless nights with worry
About 2 weeks ago, I went through a self check out and bought 2 things, one of the things was under my arm as I was on the phone at the time.
I forgot to pay for it (no sarcasm please)
I left the store,
showing how innocent I am,
I was stood looking in the window of the holiday shop next door browsing at the offers,
the security guard approched me and said you hadn’t paid for an item
I went back in store, paid for the item, apologised about 8 times.
I paid for the item then he said can you come with me,
I went to the back office
He asked for my name and DOB
No address or ID was asked
I gave my correct details but obviously there will be more than one John Smiths in London.
He said you’re banned for life from all sainsburys and told me to leave.
I still apologised; saying I’m sorry
Then I left.
I haven’t heard anything since?
Should there be issue?
Would rather just know, but even then it’s hard to see how he’s ever get in contact unless I went back into a store.
I work in a financial services job,
so was relieved he didn’t ring the police etc,
even then I think with no previous criminal record I could probably explain my actions and be let go,
as I’ve never been convicted of any offence or even spoken to the police in my life.
Can anyone advise?
Thanks
