How would you deal with the situation? Would you give the member his tp's, or would you handle it another way?

If they lacked that all-essential proof, then I'd have to say no, but with some indication that what they're saying is true, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. This is assuming that their distrustworthiness doesn't stem from the same type of problem in the past. If they've lied about this very same issue, then I'd say no. Call it cry wolf logic, but I'm not willing to give someone the benefit of the doubt when they've proved to have lied about the very same thing. If it was something else, however, such as lying about re-using roleplays or forging conversations, whilst it would be a source of distrust it wouldn't apply as much.

If it persisted, then I'd check out the situation myself. Come sunday, on the dot, I'd check their training login to see if they'd received any TP. If they hadn't recieved any, then I would have concrete proof that they're telling the truth. If they had recieved TPs, I'd wait to see if they complained again about the same problem. And if they did ... well, there's a good chance they'd be banned on the spot for lying to staff. Before making any allegations, though, I'd check to see they actually spent the TP, and they weren't just unable to access it (through Firefox problems of somesuch).
