Lidl not giving me refund

Hi has anyone every tried taking faulty goods worth over £10 back to lidl. I did this yesterday and was told by the manager that he would take the goods back but as the value of the item was over £10 he would not be able to refund me and that the goods would be sent to head office to be checked out. Then i will get a cheque through the post. Is this correct. If not what if anything can i do.

  • As I understood it it was only if you paid by card,don't know about them sending it back to head office though.

  • Had the same issue with lidl in Liverpool. They sent me a cheque within a week and all was fine. Think it is just there way of keeping track of returns.

    Yes its the way they deal with returns the manager in my local one rekons its to prevent store fraud, cheque was received in about 3 days when i last did it.
  • My cheque never came through, so the local store refunded me in cash after all.
