Bali tourist divides TikTok after posting argument with Finns Beach Club staff over ‘hair found in food'
A tourist has filmed an argument with the security team at Bali's famous Finns Beach Club after allegedly finding hair in his food, but his entitled approach has divided opinions. Connor Jevons, from Liverpool in the UK, shared a video on TikTok at the weekend of the tense confrontation between him and the staff at the popular Canggu venue — which is owned by Australian property developer and former AFL player Tony Smith. In the video, the 26-year-old approaches staff demanding a reimbursement for his food. 'I need to speak with the owner, I have a situation that I need to sort,' Mr Jevons tells a lady at the front desk. After speaking to the manager he shows her a video he took the day before of his burger and fries being served to him at a poolside VIP table, zooming in on what he claims is a hair in his food. 'I will not post this video as long as we sort this situation out,' he tells the manager. 'Did you request to replace the food?' the manager asked Mr Jevons. 'No, no because I was drunk... I didn't want to cause a problem, because you know sometimes when you're drunk you get aggressive,' Mr Jevons explains. He tells the manager that his table spent roughly 7.8 million Indonesian Rupiah, which is about $730 Australian dollars, adding that he has been to the venue on other occasions and spent similar amounts. 'So you want the money back for the food that you ordered?' the manager asks. 'I want all the money back, not just the food but for the whole night,' Mr Jevons responds. 'We can't do it,' the staff members says in regards to his refund request. Mr Jevons leaves his phone recording while more security staff surround the British tourist and ask him to leave. When Mr Jevons doesn't move, he is escorted out while he speaks to the camera in protest. 'People, this is what happens at Finns Beach Club. . . this is meant to be the 'world's best beach club',' he shouts. 'Everybody stop touching me,' he demands, while looking for his motorbike. 'I'm looking for my motorbike bro,' Mr Jevons repeats after a security guard pushes him away from the beach club. Mr Jevons continues to ask security for a refund, telling the guards about the following he has on TikTok. 'I will delete all of the footage if you give me my reimbursement,' he tells the security guards while they try to find his motorbike. Mr Jevons posted the video on his TikTok account, asking his 100,000 followers what their thoughts on the situation are. Over a million people have viewed the video and followers have replied with differing opinions, some applauding Mr Jevons and others unconvinced by his behaviour. 'NGL why refund for the whole table… you enjoyed everything but the food — therefore food refund should be sufficient?' one person said. 'Refunding for the food is fair, but that's it,' another agreed. 'Love this guy, takes no shit s*** and has the heart of a lion,' another commented.

British tourist clashes with security outside a popular Aussie club in Bali after demanding a FULL refund because of 'disgusting' discovery in his food
A tourist in Bali filmed a heated clash with security at the world famous Finns Beach Club after demanding his bill be waived because he allegedly found hair in his food. Connor Jevons, 26, from Liverpool in the UK, shared a TikTok of the row at the popular Canggu venue, which is owned by Australian property developer and former AFL player Tony Smith. Mr Jevons claimed to one of the hospitality staff that, on a previous visit, his burger and French fries contained hair. The manager asked if he wanted his money back for that order, before he demanded to be reimbursed the whole table's bill for that day. 'I'm a regular to Finns Beach Club,' Mr Jevons explained to viewers in the video, before he walked into the club and demanded to speak to the owner. A manager then spoke with him and he showed her a video he took from the day. 'If we sort this out, I won't post this video. Are you the owner?' he asked. 'Did you request to replace the food?' the manager asked Mr Jevons. 'No, no. When I got home and edited my video, I saw that it was still here on the video. So all I ask is for reimbursement for my VIP table.' @hugothemicro_ I found multiple hairs in my food in @FINNS Beach Club & This Is How They Dealt With The Situation 🤷🏼♂️ What's Your Thoughts On This… #finnsbeachclub #foodtok #bali #wrong #banned ♬ original sound - hugothemicro_ 'Do you have the booking?' the manager replied. Mr Jevons then looked through his phone for the booking. 'Look at my recent views. Yeah, I got 172,000 views. I don't want to cause situation for Finns. I would just like my reimbursement, please,' he said. 'So you want the money back for the food that you ordered?' the manager said. 'No, for the whole table from that day,' Mr Jevons said. He explained his table spent roughly 7.8million Indonesian Rupiah, which is about $730 Australian dollars, but added he has been to the venue on other occasions and spent similar amounts. The manager then left and another colleague returned after a few minutes to speak with Mr Jevons. 'We can't do it,' he told him. Mr Jevons then left his phone recording a video while he remained at the guest services counter at the club and insisted he should be reimbursed. Over the next several minutes security staff arrived one-by-one until there were about half a dozen in the area around Mr Jevons and he was asked to leave. 'I have not done anything wrong. I'm getting escorted out by this guy for no reason,' Mr Jevons said. The group moved to the exterior of the club, where Mr Jevons and the security staff continued to argue, with the tourist claiming staff were manhandling him. 'I'm not leaving until the situation is sorted. I haven't committed a crime. Why are there so many security guards around me?' he said. One security guard told him he had the right to ask him to stop filming. Mr Jevons said again he would not post a video if the 'situation is sorted'. 'I didn't show up here aggressive. Don't touch me! Why are you putting your hands on me?' he said. The video then continued on for another several minutes while Mr Jevons looked through his phone for the license plate number of the scooter he arrived on. 'Where's my motorbike? Where? I put it somewhere here, bro,' he said. Social media users were left divided with some questioning why Mr Jevons wanted an entire refund. 'Why refund for the whole table?' one wrote. 'You enjoyed everything but the food, therefore a food refund should be sufficient.' Another added: 'You can't expect to get your whole night refunded.' Others sided with Mr Jevons. 'Love this guy,' one wrote. 'Takes no s*** and has the heart of a lion.' 'I feel the anger through the screen,' a second said.
