A group of shameless 'Dine and Dashers' yielded a bill of almost £ 300 – including ordered extras – in an Indian restaurant before complaining about the food and refusal to pay.
Jumeira, the family business in Staplehurst, has released CCTV of the greedy customers who ate their restaurant fourteen days ago.
Faheem Ahmed, 26, said that the group of four adults and four children finished a selection of main courses and said that they were 'happy' with them when waiters checked.
The brutal customers even ordered extra help and dishes to remove before they swing insults quickly after they have received the bill.
Despite the fact that the staff checks in several times all night, Mr Ahmed's team received no previous complaints about the food or the environment.
It was only when they yielded the £ 287 bill for all their food that the group claimed that they were 'not happy with the meal and service' and quickly became 'aggressive, intimidating and offensive' for staff.
The 17-year-old Ober was stunned and asked for help from another staff member when a woman in the group reportedly became more aggressive and started to scream and throw insults.
'Frustrated', Mr Ahmed, who was not employed that night, believes that the 'brutal' family noticed that no managers were present, so they felt that they could 'get away with' not pay.

It is said that dinners at tables in the neighborhood even started when a row started, which made it “ordered your extra food – how bad could it be?”.
Mr. Ahmed explained that 'all night we asked what everything was like, how the food was and there was no problem. They were happy. They said the food was great, they finished it and said they wanted to order a separate collection meal. '
He added: “They took the order, took it back to the car, returned and said,” We are not happy with the service. “
'The waiters were confused because this never really happened to us, especially if there is no manager there.
“The waiters said:” You are happy with the food because you have taken a separate collection meals because you enjoyed the food so much “but they just didn't have it at all. “
As tensions rose, Mr. Ahmed said that it was 'well heated' and the shameless customers started to use insulting language.
“Because they were a large group, they were quite intimidating and we didn't want to cause complications with them,” he said.
An employee tried to distribute the escalating argument by offering a reduced account, but the family refused every concession.
The group of eight began to be 'aggressive' with Jumeira's staff before he left only £ 30 to cover their costs
Eventually one of the dinners threw £ 30 on the table before he walked away.
“The food wasn't bad, the food was great. They even asked for a separate collection order.
“They intended to come in, order food and not pay for it, that's the only explanation,” Mr Ahmed added.
Tariq Ahmed, Managing Director told Kentonline “We have taken a lot of care to what we do, so for a group to enjoy their meals, order more and then walk away without paying, it is frustrating and daunting.”
The restaurant owners also said that the children of the customer misbehave all evening, ran between tables and disrupted other customers.
When the group was reported to the police, Jumeira, who recently won a prize in the Asian restaurant and the collection restaurants, was told that it was a civil store between the restaurant and the customer.
The CCTV images were released in the hope that the group would arrange what they owe.
Manager Faheem said that the answer to his social media post was 'great' because many criticized the behavior of customers.
“They intended to come in, order food and not pay for it, that's the only explanation,” said Mr. Ahmed
He said that he wants to increase consciousness of the attempt 'dining and dashing', because he claims that it happens in many restaurants.
Faheem said: 'We have been on the market for more than 20 years and we have an established restaurant in the area, so we are not going to die more than £ 300, but it is the principle.
'The number of people who walked in to say how sorry they felt and how sorry they were for the actions of this group of people.
'I have the feeling that knows the post has seen, so it is amazing what social media can do today.
'We are not going to rush them, it's just to increase consciousness.
“It will come back to them one day.
'Their families will know what they have done to see them everywhere on Facebook.
'We have just won a prize and when you see our reviews, we always maintain our food and our service outside.
“This is not only happening with us, it happens somewhere while we speak, but you don't have to let anyone get away with it.”
