    I think sinw is responding to a recent email from warburtons, I have just received it today too, it's a competition entry rather than entering a code to get your 30p coupon, however as I am still banned it won't print for me! :(

    Yes, I've had two :confused: emails to each of my email addresses so that's quite a lot that I can't get either :mad: (Not on my main PC anyhoo ;))
    :p:p Have a good [STRIKE]Tesc[/STRIKE][STRIKE]Asd[/STRIKE]WHO? day - Err....I still wish Mozzies had a better website even though they are now on MyS! :p:p :rotfl:;)

    I wish I had steered clear, I didnt even use the ones i printed off! And got a ban :(

    Have you had any takers about the first post update? I would have done it if still on maternity leave but went back full time a couple of weeks ago and no time at the moment, roll on baby number 3!

  • I don't even get a chance to be banned - apparently "Julie" is not a valid first name on the warburtons comp entry form :mad:

    And I got trouted at Mr T's - when supervisor was called I explained policy and she tried scanning them got confused canceled the coupons and rescanned them but missed out one of my £1 off coupons :mad: Didn't dare complain further though as Trouts on the CS desk.

    But on the plus side i didn't go bright red :D and stood my ground.
  • Am a "newby" so please be gentle! Tried to use the £5 Lidl voucher at Tesco Shoreham today, absolutely no luck. So i went to customer services. I Was told as there is no Lidl nearby they don't take them. So I mentioned Tesco Dundee said they should take them. Then told "it's up to individual stores whether we take them. The store manager has told us not to take them". I then asked to speak to the store manager, he apparently has today off....Spoke to his "deputy" who said as the Lidl voucher doesn't scan they don't get their money back!! - Off who i asked Lidl?! Of course you won't get your £5 back i said - these vouchers are supposed to get you to spend £30, and then give you £5 off. Tesco want me to shop here rather than at Lidl which is why Dundee have said accept the voucher. Still no joy. I even got told that "if any coupon scans we get our money back from Head Office" Eventually I asked to speak to Dundee. The woman down the phone said they should accept it, and the store manager should override anyone saying don't. They STILL refused eventually I asked whether they were willing to loose me as a customer to Lidl. - Reply "yes".
    Any advice? Thanks!

    That is very sad indeed but even more maddening!:mad: I don't know why they want to punish the honest couponers! I hate the thought of not shopping there anymore as I really love the staff there but if they stop the coupons then I can't afford to shop there anymore and will have to go back to Adli, Netto and Lidl, which I won't have to drive as far to as I do to get to Willenhall. They are all so nice! I'll miss them most of all!:( I wonder if they will miss the sales they get from me and my daughter (I take her with me as she doesn't drive) now when we stop shopping there.:rolleyes:

    Srictly 10%, and usually refuse a coupon that takes it over, even if its just one coupon, i.e spend £18 and hand over one £2 coupon, and they say its over the 10% allowed.

    8/10 staff don't even allow any, and you have to argue. A pain in the butt.
