ATM fees are worst rip-off
Dad shoves goalie son to make save
CASH machines charging us to get at our own money are life’s biggest rip-off, 61% of people told a survey.
Booking fees at 59%, rail fares on 57%, motorway petrol prices at 54% and escalating TV or broadband contract prices on 53% made up the top five.
We reckon extra charges are costing us £383 a year, the survey by train ticket app TrainPal found.
Punters try to claw cash back with 17% saying they lie about their child’s age to get cheaper deals. Phil and Osain A DAD pushes his son to make a diving save at a kids football match.
Phil Hatfield, 35, shouted to six-year-old goalie Osain “come out to the ball” but the boy misheard and walked towards him.
Dad Phil is seen in mobile phone footage shoving Osain back into the goalmouth where he falls in the way of the ball – but it rebounds to a striker who slots it home.
Osain was playing his first game for Bow Street Magpies under-8s in Aberystwyth, West Wales. They lost 4-2 to Llanilar.
Dad-of-two Phil said: “His mind wanders off sometimes. I tried to get him back on the pitch but he tripped over his feet and went down. He can be a bit clumsy.”
Phil said he and wife Ffion, 34, gave him a cuddle after the incident as he was upset everyone was laughing.
But Phil said: “It hasn’t put him off – he’ll play in goal again.”
