In these tough economic times...

I will be doing a proper write up on last week's technology event.  The way the event worked was, so I’d have a rough idea of how many people were going to come, recruiters paid a £20 deposit that is refunded to them after they attend the event.   These are two emails I got on Friday from event attendees.

"Many thanks for organising yesterday. Thoroughly worthwhile as well as being thoroughly enjoyable! No need to return my deposit. Please donate to your nominated charity."

"Thanks for organizing the event yesterday – it was good.  I would like the £20 refunded please, rather than giving it to one of your charities. When and how will it come back to me?"

Nothing wrong with wanting your money back but a little tight to actually spell it out!!

When it comes to money some people lose their minds.

Perhaps the person thought you required a definative answer one way or the other! I expect they're cringing with embarrasment now..what was the point Louise?

I just thought the wording "I would like the £20 refunded please, rather than giving it to one of your charities" was mildly funny.

No point other than that really.
