I recently bought a packet of polo's.. you know..
(the mint with the hole!)
To my disgust though, the hole in one of the mints was missing!
Outrageous I hear you say.
I have since written to the customer complaints department demanding the missing hole as I was wholly dissatisfied that I had received more mint for my money than I was promised in their advertising campaigns.
I've just received a package from them which was empty, and a letter attached stating that inside was my missing hole.
The package was bigger than the hole that i was missing, so I am not sure if they have sent my missing hole, or a hole from something else!! Also how do I know that they've sent me my whole hole or just a part of it.... or even someone else's!!
Shall i accept that they have fulfilled their obligation, or seek further professional help??
What do you think??

You need a whole lotta help getting to the bottom of the whole mystery. I would contact the company again and give them a whole mouthful of Holy hell.
You could probably hire a whole hoard of legal help but in the end you will end up spending a whole lot of money and not have a satisfactory explanation for the whole unfortunate incident.
You could resort to the holistic approach to calm your whole body and feel a whole lot better about your missing HOLE.

The package you received would have contained the missing hole packaged in an air cushion to protect it during transit. This air pocket is automatically released when you open the package leaving you free access to your hole. Sometimes some of this packaging can get caught in the replacement hole, if this happens you will need to squeeze gently to expel the excess air from your hole.
I would not pursue the manufacturers any further as they may decide to chase you for payment for the extra bit on mint you have received.
I would keep this mint if I were you are it is bound to be worth a fortune in the future to any keen confectionery enthusiast as a rare and collectible one-off. Or it could be a rougue extra strong mint inserted into your tube by an anti-mint activist?

I think you should have just bought a packet of the missing holes!
That would have saved you the problem in the first place!
And the missing holes are the middles of the Polo's that you can buy in the shops by the way!
Just in case you were wondering??????????????

Very funny! But a serious dilemma! They can only send no less than 6 holes per package, it is regulation. So you actually profitted by that transaction! Now you can place those extra holes up for sale, put a sign in your yard, run an ad in the paper, or place them on ebay for your best results, they are yours to dispose of as you deem profitable. Good Luck! (Loved the question)...

I think that unless you are wholly satisfied, you should take the matter up with His Holiness, the Pope. He might send you some holy water, but would you be able to tell how many holes were in it? You'd just end up with a bag full of bubbles! I think you need to take a whole new look at your life!

What they've done is taken some holes out of another packet and sent them to you!
Now some other poor git is going to get a packet of polos with no holes - and so it goes on . .

I thought lifesavers were the mint with the hole? I think you should send the whole hole back and demand the hole you paid for.

Just as well it wasn't a packet of Polo fruits, you could have end up being sent a fruity hole instead.

I think it is a conspiracy against you and potentially the start of the invasion of the invisible hole people to take over the earth and to kill all polo eaters who have been murdering there brothers for years.
