Most people don’t expect to go out to dinner and not have to open their wallets, but it turns out there are a lot of folks who aren’t above a little dining and dashing.
A new survey finds that one in 20 diners admit they’ve skipped out on the bill after getting impatient waiting to get the check. What’s more, 25% say they’d consider bailing on the bill if they waited more than 30 minutes to get it.
It’s almost understandable why people would be ready to walk out after waiting so long for the bill, especially since the average wait time for a check is only nine minutes and 57 seconds.
- But soon folks may not even have to wait for the bill at all. The survey was conducted in conjunction with a new "invisibill" payment app that’s being tested in London. The app, called Dine & Dash, will allow customers to leave right after they finish eating, with the bill automatically charged to their card.
