    Has anyone tried Tesco,s recently, just wondered if there policy might have changed.

    And did any of you write to Tesco,s regarding the problem, if they get enough complaints then they might change if they havnt, just a thought as its odd they seem to be the only one, not very clever forceing your customers to the competition is it:confused:
    Thats it, i am done, Blind-as-a-Bat has left the forum, for good this time, there is no way I can recover this account, as the password was random, and not recorded, and the email used no longer exits, nor can be recovered to recover the account, goodbye all …………. :(

    It may be worth sending them an email through there website. I have never known Tesco not to want to grab a sale to be honest.

    I tried 6 weeks ago. They say it is because an under 16 can have an Electron and buy booze and glue and knives etc. :confused:

    Have written and complained.

    ok in this case why dont they say before you order that you must prove your age when receiving your goods from the delivery driver or they will return your good and charge a £25 return cost. There we go sorted. I think Tesco's should offer me a job. he he
