<p>A repairman sent to fix a boiler was caught on doorbell camera taking a customer's £300 designer coat - and shoving it in his van.</p><p>Red Edwards, 22, asked his neighbour to check their Ring doorbell footage after his North Face puffa jacket went missing.</p><p>He had returned home earlier this month (8/3) to find that the clothing was not hanging on its usual peg - and got suspicious.</p><p>Watching the video back, Red was shocked to see the man sent to fix his leaky boiler quickly stuffing the coat into his work van before driving off.</p><p>The customer services worker, from Stamford, Lincs., immediately complained to Matthews and Tannert Ltd, who sent the repairman.</p><p>The company said in a statement that the matter has now been resolved.</p><p>Red, who said the coat was taken on his birthday, said: "The night after the repairman came, I was hunting everywhere for my coat and going slightly insane.</p><p>"I knew I had cash in the pocket and it was actually my birthday the day that he stole my coat.</p><p>"I'd been out the night before so knew I had cash in the pockets and came downstairs to retrieve it and put it into my piggy bank.</p><p>"I looked absolutely everywhere in my home and that was when I put the pieces together and knew the coat had left with the boiler repairman for some reason.</p><p>"My mum called the company the next day and explained the coat had gone. We asked my neighbour if she would kindly check the Ring doorbell footage for us.</p><p>"She sent [it] to my mum who shrieked, 'I don't bloody believe it! The coat is here, the jammy b******!'</p><p>"When I saw the footage, I actually felt rather relieved to know that I hadn't gone mad and just lost my coat.</p><p>"It confirmed all my suspicions so I was quite pleased, but also just completely shocked.</p><p>"Out of everything he could have stolen, he decided to take the North Face puffer that was hanging up.</p><p>"I felt outraged and pretty distraught too for the fact that he hadn't just left with my £300 coat, but also my birthday money that I had left in the pockets in my own home with full trust.</p><p>Annoyed Red then sent the clip to Matthews and Tannert Ltd - and claims they initially dismissed his allegations.</p><p>But, after he sent the footage, Red says the coat was returned to him as well as £300 in compensation, a box of chocolates and flowers.</p>
