Not directly, but I supported this act with one of my friends.
We went to a clinic looking for good Dermatologist. Somehow we found a good Doctor and started consulting her periodically.
As you know the lotions, shampoo, soaps, etc., they provide are available at their stores only and the cost would be higher and they sell only on MRP. A single body soap would cost 200 Rupees as on MRP and they bill for that. Arguing would be anyways useless, and we cannot argue on it because we want our skin to glow. So whatever the cost they make we generally give.
One of the times, we were just asking the pharma guy for discount on the lotions, on which anyways they denied. They made a bill of it and started explaining the procedure to use. My friend always used to pay by Credit card, so in that process he had given his card. Kudos to Digitalization..!!! Due to the flow of Out patients and disturbances, pharma guy took the card and forgot to swipe in the machine, and he returned the card to us. We were observing, as he was not asked for the PIN number to enter on it. On the point on not giving discounts anytime, we just didn’t remind him to swipe again. We waited there for sometime whether he may gonna ask after some time. But he didn’t. He told us to leave as Out Patients were standing. We simply left from that place…..
Fact that I would generally pay the amount mainly on food items (I don’t eat for free unless it is charity) though they forgot to take. Yeah, I thought it was illegal in that moment and my friend was arguing with me saying he gets the medicines in 20% of the MRP and asked me to leave this time. So the illegal act went for 3 hours.
Twist is that- The same pharma guy called back after 3 hours checking all his logs, and asked for whether we had any message/acknowledgement on amount deducted on the bill ? We waited for sometime and peacefully replied ‘No’. So he was happy that his job is safe(as his owner was screwing him on his ignorance). Later went to the store and paid OFF…!!!
My friend doesn’t have Quora account, and I am safe here for disclosing!!! 😀 😀
