This million pound curry is pretty expensive

Restaurant owner, Abdul Wahid, was left speechless after a customer accidentally paid more than £1million for a three-course meal.

Abdul Wahid, the owner of the Rajpoot Indian Restaurant in Inverurie, was shocked when he realised that a customer accidentally paid more than £1million for their meal.

Mr Wahid, 51, who opened the restaurant in December but has been in the industry for over 30 years, said: ‘When he came to pay I gave him the card machine and he asked to put in the amount himself but it didn’t go through.

‘I then had to phone the bank for him and I answered all of the questions and they then gave me the confirmation code.

‘At this time he still had the card machine so I never saw the amount he had typed in. But 10 minutes later I took the machine and looked at it and I just said “oh my god what’s happened, what have you done my friend”.

I looked at the receipt and then he looked at it and he just said ‘oh my’

‘He then rang his bank up to say it was the wrong amount and cancel it before paying the correct amount.’

The 51-year-old added: ‘This has to be one of the most expensive meals there has ever been. I have never experienced anything like this. It was really, really shocking. I still can’t believe it.’

Be wary of card machines – Have you ever had similar problems where you overpaid or were overcharged..
