    Sounds like someone expressing an opinion. Don't worry, that sort soon gets spotted and taken care of at their next performance review. Keep your eye on your local fast food joint...bound to be there soon enough.
    Serving as opposed to being in the middle of a bun I hope ;)

  • Evening all :D

    Had some issues today

    Initially visited a store and got 9 bottles of champers and they had the cheek to overcharge me, then broke their necks to tell me the policy :T

    r+r here of £21.84 * 9 /25% = £147.42 ;)

    Then to another store
    3 simpsons dvd boxsets sel £22.97, labelled £19.84 full r+r £68.91

    Then also picked up a dvd rewriter, yes the one we know of. sel of £34.97, charged £44.97.

    Refused r+r by shelf stacker ! / Section manager (Hello if your listening, manners cost nothing) She was possibly the rudest person I have ever encountered in my life. Then she said the sel is more than a foot from the product :rotfl: .

    Excellent I said. "So the posters outside the door do not apply?"

    "All wine £1" , "But because its outside the store it doesnt count":D

    "No sir"

    "Well what then?"

    Then I asked for Store manager , this chap was better but then said the sel was "on the floor??" even though his own shelf stacker had removed it. Then he implied we had put it on the shelf. At this point security dude turns up and asks if there is a problem. I say "yes, tescos have overcharged me by £10 and are refusing me it for £34 and are calling me a liar" At this point the section manager hitler says "Im not having this shouting and screaming in my ear" At this point I say "You havent seen me shouting and screaming yet" I had done nothing at all wrong at this point, still refusing clear r+R . Then the manager claimed it was a different product :T . Even though sel stated the dvd writer in question 16 speed etc. I asked him to show me the product this sel related to?

    "Sold out" was the reply.

    Then moved a label from a product (pc) and placed it infront of another ( different make) and said " So you'd want this at the same price?":D

    me : "Well no its clearly a different product one is a gateway pc , the other sel is for a iqon laptop? What are you doing this for?"

    mangler "Well im not letting you have it as its out of date!" "Its your responsibility to check the dates"

    me : "Really , excellent im sure the papers will be pleased to hear this, along with TS and your MD terry leahy"

    mangler : "Call head office then, im not selling it to you" :rotfl:

    me : "Lol, what an absolute joke, at this point security steps in and asks me to leave, hold on im sorting this out, its 1605 by this point and store is closed.

    So I refunded product and informed them id call head office. Told manager I wanted him to give me it personally tomorrow with an apology and that i would have the biggest grin ever when trading standards crawled up his !!!:rotfl:

    So todays totals
    r+r £216.33,

    PLUS THEY DID NOT MARK RECEIPTS FOR CHAMPAGNE, OR THE DVDS.

    2 SEPERATE STORES!! :rotfl:

    Thanks again tescos :D
    :idea: £2051.50 since Oct 25 2006 ;) Make mine a Golden £143.46 :D

    I love Leadhead :D:D

    Wouldn't have been better to hang on to the item if you're going to chase it up.

    They often say in taking the refund you accepted a resolution to your issue. Even if that wasn't what was said!

    the_postman surely you must have known sooner or later you would run into a bit of hassle ;) i think you have had a good run so far without any hiccups.

    As Hermann states surely if you accept refund then you have resolved the problem?

    Maybe worth putting it down to experience.
    I made a mistake once, believeing people on the internet were my virtual friends. It won't be a mistake that I make again!
  • just emailing the big man sir tel

    oh and bought a talking nev thing?

    It says "!!!!!" !!!!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?! :mad:
