Its double the difference which can work out as good and sometimes better than r n r.

Quick question, what happens if you get a DTD opportunity when customer service is shut? Say I was overcharged at 10pm but cust service shuts at 8pm, I wait till the morning and they've changed the SEL?

u need to try and get a manager to refund u
else
u have to take a chance.
I shop a lot late at night
wot i do is i take a picture of the SEL and show it to them when cs opens.

Hubby got DtD on bryl hair gel today, SeL was yesterday's date so scaned at full price not offer price. Very pleased with himself as I only found this thread last night and was reading it out to him. He was all prepared to quote the DtD policy and the lady just gave him the DtD straight away with no problems , excellent:T

Well done hubby!

Beware the SEL reading addiction that is now sure to follow...

Saw a bottle of Bells Special Blend Whisky today in T's, it was one of the gift ones in the box. The SEL was OOD and said that it was reduced from £17 to £11. As it was something I would buy anyway, I was happy to take a chance and hopefully get DTD. But it scanned at £8.99. Not as cheap as if I'd got DTD but still a bargain I was very happy with. _party_

Good DTD:

Panasonic Pink Single Cordless Phone:

OOD SEL: £14.99

Scanned at £29.99

Staff member stated she could not be bothered to work out the DTD to include VAT so gave me full £29.99 refund.

Just need to work out what to do with Pink phone now (receipt marked) lol

heres what happen to me today at Sunbury extra
having just got back from my hols i thought i would try for one of those phone/printer/coffeemaker misprices i have been reading about (better late then never) after almost giving up i saw an out of date SEL on a BT twin phone, i was duty bound to buy two. the kind manager on electricals said she would 'on this occation' refund the difference. Bear with me because this is the interesting bit. Her minion kindly pointed out the DTD policy to which she replied Oh yes you are right! what we will do then is refund you DTD and 'then sell you the items (if you still want them) at the offer price'
you are joking i thought and told her so. i then thought a quick call to CS HQ will put her to rights but to my shock and horror they said she was intepreting the policy correctly. i then got my refund and left which was very unlike me. i then rang CS HQ while in the car, thinking i had previously spoke to a rogue agent only to to be toldthe same,,,,,,,,your thoughts please......

Oh and later on while getting DTD (a few pence) on some spanish rice (charged 93p priced 81p) the CS (not so lovely Linda) called a new CS over and duly 'pointed me out' saying words to the effect of 'watch out for this one' i was so so shocked i called CS HQ ( raising my profile to new highs but hey) to complain. i had to lie down (but could not as i was driving)

ps a big thank you to the regulars on this thread for giving me balls

Sorry I a little confused. Why would she refund you DTD and then sell you the phones again if you had already bought them?

you tell me? looks to me that she/they have a new way to interpret their DTD policy so that on expired half price items they dont lose out , ie give it to you for free
