Re: TESCO - new site in Accrington.
My Mum got over charged, the same as you the till didnt register the special offers, my Dad went back and told customer services and they gave him back the differnce but then doubled it as it was there mistake!
My Mum and Dad are still shopping at ASDA though, this was a one off as me Dad wanted to have a nosey!!

Re: TESCO - new site in Accrington.
I think its well worth double checking your receipts more than ever these days, there are so many offers on, with quite often new & old prices left on display together, if someone repricing items on shelves is disturbed by a customer asking for help on an unrelated issue, it would be easy to make a mistake on whats been repriced & what hasn't. There were two people who had been overcharged whilst i was there last week, one woman where a 」24.99 bottle of Champers hadn't been discounted on her receipt to 」19.99 as it said on the shelves!
Best Regards - Taggy

Re: TESCO - new site in Accrington.
I'm currently fighting a battle with Asda about some online shopping delivered on 27/12, I am not giving up and will not be shopping with them till it's resolved, it's a long story so I'll just say it should have turned up between 5pm -7pm, turned up at 9:30 pm and had shortdated items in with that day's date on, plus leaking bleach....... they now owe me a refund of nearly 」20 which they say has been credited to my debit card NOT !!

That's naughty linds send stuff out with same day dates on, probably one of the drawbacks of shopping on line though, but it doesn't make it right and if repeated will only lose them customers in the long run

Re: TESCO - new site in Accrington.
Went in Tesco's again today and must say marvelous. Hardly a soul about, nice and peaceful no dodging trolleys or unrully brats. It's almost one to one customer and staff wise.
Think something will have to give soon can't be very cost effective at the moment, i can see some thinning down of staff before much longer.

It could always be turned into the new bus station their always on about, and car park will come in handy for both bus and rail.
I think Tesco backed their lorry intut wrong car park when they came to Accy.
450 jobs, I don't think they've had 450 customers, I've heard a few complaints about price differences between display and till, people being overcharged, a lot of their prices are a lot higher tha Asda or Aldi, they lost my custom after 1 visit.

I've noticed more & more Supermarkets are keeping some same day stuff on their shelves...at normal prices...lately Jaysay, they always used to reduce the price, even M&S are guilty of this!

Re: TESCO - new site in Accrington.
Anyway, now that Tesco's is open, it looks like we're going get a Morrisons (the old Netto).
Just a shame we can't have a decent supermarket.

Re: TESCO - new site in Accrington.
I am still with ASDA, saying that though I went netto and home&bargain today just for bits of things.
Netto's bacon is the best one and cheap for a large pack.

Re: TESCO - new site in Accrington.
Just wondered if anyone else recieved the vouchers for TESCO again in the post today?
Same as last time spend 」30 and get a tenner off for the next 4wks, looks like TESCO are a bit desperate for customers!!!

Re: TESCO - new site in Accrington.
Have received the vouchers too, but the vouchers i have are for £6 off when spending £30. Same as you, if Asda are taking them, i'll be spending them there.
