    As i mentioned on another thread a product update was sent out to stores today with details of how to retify the 'mistake' on this promotion - I would assume that its been rectified in all stores now but there may still be a few out there that have not actioned it at store level yet.

    Tesco will be rectifying the offer centrally so that it comes into affect in all stores on Friday

    I can assure you that as of 1 hour ago this was still working, the reason that the same misprices occur over and over again, sometimes on the same products for weeks at a time is because Tescos cannot communicate efficiently.

    Ok no need to change the tone, Tesco employee is only trying to help us all. We all realise tesco may not communicate effectively or could even be refered to as inept as this mistake has been going on for a while now.
    But partially the store is to blame for not actioning communications they recieve.

    Is it absolutely any wonder the prices in Tesco are so laughably inaccurate? Friday?? LOL.

  • Is TescoEmployee really one or a fake ?. Sorry that sounds harsh but I have my suspicions; I take any information on here with a pinch of salt.

    I never said the store wasn't to blame for not actioning communications, when I said Tesco I was including stores within that. I think that communication between head office and stores is obviously ineffective, as is communication from stores to head office and between stores. I can see no point in a Tesco employee 'warning' us that this has been fixed when it hasn't in every store. If head office were going to correct this centrally then why not do it now, is Friday a magic day. We all know we'd still try them Friday if we seen them on the shelf regardless of 'warnings'.

    My apologies if the Tesco Employee is trying to help MSE but that wasn't how it appeared to me.

    Me too Welshy, as you know.

    After reading the post he/she made claiming that the bonus points glitch was a 'promotion' (!) - it's on the Tesco Clubcard Questions thread if you want to see it everyone - and the 'contributions' this person has made to the Misprices thread, I have now added TescoEmployee (hahaha) to my ignore list.

    Pinch of salt? We need a whole pack! :T
