Rip-Off Tesco

[weeal]

Sometimes I buy 'bargains' from Tesco at reduced prices, as do we all, but 80% of the time it goes through the till at the full price and I can never be bothered complaining about it, I did today and got double the difference back.
I will now be more vigilant, they do this so often its ridiculous.
Sad when youve gotta go through your receipt checking things.
Anyone else noticed this?

[firewatch]

yup, i usually group reduced items together to make them easier to locate on the receipt, although i have to say morrisons are pretty good at checking products!

[Katoninelive]

Yes but it's not just Tesco. I check all my receipts at every supermarket i use as this happens all the time!

The b@st@rds!

morning weeal x

I think lots of supermarkets are like this. last week in Sainsburys I bought a couple of pizzas that were marked "2 for �4", when I checked my receipt I was charged for 2 @ �3.79. I queued at customer services and they said, "oh, it's for all varieties except that one!". I got a refund.

you do have to check, and lots of mistakes are made.

not fair!

[weeal]

Hi all, yeah its a pain in the butt

sara that happened to me too, and by the time I got it sorted - the assistant argued the point - the pizza's had defrosted and I had to ask for another two, they were not impressed lol

Over 2 years ago Tescos accused me of overstaying on their car park by 3 hours when I was only on it 10 minutes in total. When I complained they sayed I had been over 3 hours. I wrote back and sent them my club card and said I would not shop with them anymore. After 2 weeks I received a letter from them without an apology stating that the equipment they used for checking cars on and off the car park was faulty and they had removed my car details from their default list.
Needless to say I have never been in a Tesco since and may I suggest that this could be your answer.

dogwalker - that is unbelievable, they're so sure of their market status that they dont even want to hang on to their customers - shocking innit

[unrulyjulie]

Imagine what money they make per year doing this sort of thing.
I always group my offers together too so i can spot them on the receipt.

Near where I live a new so called super duper Tesco has opened in Bradley Stoke, Nr Bristol, that now sells a huge amount of home and electrical items. Everyone thought "wonderful". However, their customer relations are very poor, the shallow trolleys quite away from the entrance, car park nowhere near big enough and trolley parks in the carpark very few and far between (this in a brand new car park), like the above complaints things go through the tills at the wrong amount and when you complain they always come up with an excuse and I swear they change the labels on the shelves to say so confuse me, special offer shelves nearly always empty (which they should keep well stocked if on special offer!). I've shopped with them for years, but am seriously thinking of changing to ASDA. Take note, Tesco.

[weeal]

Well...they'd soon lose out if we all took them to task and they had to pay out double the difference all he time eh

It's not only Tesco who get the prices wrong weeal.

We have a Tesco express where 2 out of the 3 tills are self serve ones. Quite often they go wrong so two members of staff have to come & sort the problem out. I refuse to use them, if they can spout about making nearly �3 billion profit they can serve their customers properly. Next they'll be expecting us to fill a shelf before we leave!
Yes, I'm a grumpy old(ish) woman
I really only go in there for the strawberry cheesecakes!

:o)

[weeal]

lol Robinia

I have to use the self service tills as I go in really early before work at the back of 7 and every morning without fail the till goes wonky and I need an assistant, it doesnt half wake me up tho but its a good way of checking the prices as you go along

[slipnot]

Look out for A*da stores. Sales assistant was so busy chatting to me, she scanned some items twice. Luckily I check my receipt and went straight to Cust.Serv. and they believed me. Had I gone outside first, they may not have!

Totterdown, not tried the new super duper bradley Stoke one but in Redfield it's nightmare. I was banned at one time for complaining about how rude the staff were to me! A large number of local people put a letter together about their high ( and rapidly rising )prices. Their response was to tack an bit more signage on the outside saying 'express' and then wrote back justifying that express stores prices were always higher due to their location! Bad, enough, but the store is in a noted 'deprived inner city area'!!!!

I shop at Asda now :)

[weeal]

slipnot, Im normally that busy chattin that I forget to lift some stuff lol

OK so Tesco is not fairing well here is it
