I very much doubt that you will get them. I went to add something else to my order and when I went to checkout (with the new addition) I received the message that the nappies were unavailable. I thought I would check as I didn't want to get the £7 worth of other items that I had ordered delivered tomorrow and no nappies - it wouldn't be worth it (or for Asda to try and substitute all the nappies I had ordered with others, making it very expensive!!!).0

i ordered these nappies for delivery tommorow 10-12 but theyre still in my order and ive had no contact from asda so in the morning il have words0

my friend works on the baby aisle at my local asda and rang this morning at 7.15am to say about these being £1 in store, by 8am a manager had cottoned on to it and sorted the 'glitch' out - might be worth trying instore though just incase no-one is aware of the price error?;)0

Teleah - that's such a shame. Did they just tell you it was a fault in their system so they couldn't sell them at that price?
I've not had any contact from Asda yet and my delivery is due between 2-4. The nappies are still showing on my order when I log in. We'll see what happens. If they try and tell me they are oos I'll not be happy. In fact I think I'd have to drive to the store and check myself!0 -
I had my delivery this morning and rejected it because they had decided to charge me full price - surely this is theft? Can anyone confirm? The money is apparently taken from your account as per their receipt not as per your receipt! I told the guy I did not agree to this amount being taken from my account and I didn't want any of the nappies if this was how they were going to treat their customers. I did not receive a call or e-mail or anything. Surely they could have sent an e-mail cancelling my order from their end rather than charging me £130!!
My sister had the same thing happen to her. We are calling them later although it will prob get us no where. The least they should do is offer say two boxes for £1 each as a good will gesture but no, not even a phone call. They let their delivery men do the hard job and tell the customer and have to deal with things - that's just wrong!
I know when Amazon did a similar thing it all went to court and they didn't have to honour the orders because a receipt did not get sent to the customers detailing the 'cheaper' price. However, Kodak did send their customers an online receipt with the cheaper price and the court said they had to honour all orders. I have my online receipt which gives price of £30.00 (for other things other than nappies too) so I'm hoping this will be the case with Asda - I will be ringing them later but if anyone could shed light on the theft issue that would be fab? Surely we had a contract with them to buy nappies for £1 and they have broken their contract too? Criminal or civil law - I don't know! Any advise really appreciated.
Another thing to bear in mind is whether this additional charge will incurr charges from your bank etc (afterall, it is the end of the month!). They take the money out of your account and it goes into a holding account and it is when you agree to the charge when they are at your door that this money then goes into Asda's account (this takes 2-3 days to get to Asda apparently) so surely it will take the same amount of time to credit your account and in the meantime, you are being charged penalties for going over overdraft or something and they are repeating benefits of interest for those few days from all the customers rejecting the orders! I know one thing is certain, I will be going to the small claims court if I get bank charges exceeding the cost of bringing a claim and in that I will include interest etc - I'm going to try and fight this all the way - they can't get away with it. Its their fault/error!
Sorry last bit, lots of people were buying them instore for £1 and they aren't being chased for extra money - discrimination surely! (although not sure what kind - internet buyer discrimination maybe!!! haha). Anyway, it was noticed at 8am in most stores so why hadn't they realised until after midday (which is when I placed my order) before they stopped the internet buying too - very slack on their part!! I'll stop ranting now. Thanks all0 -
It was still priced at £1 at 2.30am today. So it took them a full day to change the prices online.Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)
