Detipping 

If the service in a restaurant is SO poor you can always detip.

If they have added the 12.5% service charge you take it off PLUS an extra 12.5%. Remember to explain why you have done it.

If there is no service charge simply take 10% off your bill.
"This food is shit and the person serving it takes bloody ages to do anything, lets detip."

"Detipping... that means more money for booze. Let's do it!"

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
