    Default Failure to Return Rented Property

    My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of:
    Hi everyone,
    I made a mistake, I know I was wrong and I feel bad for that.

    First of all, allow me introduce myself.
    I am from Spain and I went to a little city called Newquay in order to look for job and improve my english level.
    That was in November 2013.
    In December 2013, I rented some surf stuff (surf board, gloves, wetsuit and slippers).
    As deposit, I provided my English number phone, email address and English address.
    That day, I went back to Spain, so I had just enough time to give back the surf kit and I decided not to give back (When I rented the stuff I didnt mean to not give back. I decided it later)
    Days later, my friends told me that police had gone to the house a few times looking for me.
    Although I already am not in England, I am nervous and I do not know what to do.
    My doubts are the following:

    1. What should I do after this?
    2. Do I have to pay some kind of fine (It seems it would be RLP - Retail Loss Prevention)?
    3. Having my email address, Why have not police made contact with me?
    4. What I did is reason to arrest me? Could I go to prison?
    5. What I did is a crime or civil claim? If it is a crime, What would be the period of limitation? Is it something serious or lacks importance?
    6. As for criminal report in England. Am I going to have some input because of this theft?
    7. I anticipate going to England in the future. Can police catch me in airport passport control?. I mean, What I did is a reason to be in the "blacklist" of passports?.
    I know what I have done is bad and I will never do it again.
    I feel embarrassed.
    Please, help me with my doubts, I am really worried with this situation.

    Thank you very much.

    Regardless of where this took place, your attitude is terrible, because it's clear that all you want to do is to avoid being caught.

    You stole those items. Surfboards and wetsuits aren't cheap. Return the items or offer to pay for them somehow.
