    a newbie here so still getting to grips with this promotion and so far have done it all wrong!! :(

    up until this morning had done 3 shops...getting braver each time and spending my own money...so this morning i decide to 'recycle' a £58 voucher that most of you appear to have been doing and buy a load more DTD items which i did and spent over £80 which included a roasting pan, razor and olay cream.....none of which i actually needed!! so anyway i get home and submit my receipt and then pop on here to find 'the sh*t has hit the fan' and Tesco have now capped the vouchers to £20 :mad: so i feel i have now wasted £58 that couldve been spent on things i actually need.....however i'll get over it but my question now is this:

    can i return some of the stuff and still claim the £20 voucher they will send me tomorrow or is it a case of using the £20 and keeping the useless items....or return the majority of 'non-perishables' (which i'm dreading doing!) and then forfeit the £20? hope this makes sense?!

    What you need to do is return the items BEFORE you submit the DTD claim.

    It's Tesco's problem if they don't have systems in place to deduct your returned items before the calculation.

    Then use spotty bored youth at the checkout next time.

    Are you lot for real?! Has NO-ONE got anything better to do than complain about a supermarket issue? The world is falling down around our feet and you lot seem so hard done by. There are 15,000 people still missing in Japan and all you can do is moan about an error on a poxy website, you're all very understanding and sympathetic (Pfft!). The british public this day and age is an utter disgrace, would you still be complaining if we were under aerial attack or if we had an earthquake or a tsunami rip the guts out of our country. Having read this page i am ashamed to call myself a british citizen.


    I bet you work for tesco.....don't ya??

  • This will hopefully work, this is the terms and conditions taken from the tesco site this afternoon and shows the £100 limit. It is also dated;

    Hi All,
    Been following this thread all the way though up to today.
    I have my first dtd voucher for £53, and read that maybe it would be capped at £20.
    So off i drove to Tesco ( 15 miles away ) fully prepared for maybe being told that i could not use it for the full amount.
    What i wasnt prepared for was, when handing over my voucher to the sales assistant, she shouted to another sales assistant, who came marching over, looked at my voucher and said she would have to take it to the manager. ( I also had original receipt )
    I asked the till lady why she thought this was, she smirked and shrugged her shoulders.
    By now i have a massive queue behind me, all tutting and sighing.
    The assistant came back and informed me in a very loud voice, that the manager refused to accept the voucher as it was clearly a forgery.
    I asked to see the manager but i was told that she was busy.
    By now i was mortified and very close to tears.
    The till lady said will you be paying for this shopping or not.
    I mustered what dignity i had left and told her to stuff the shopping!
    I managed to get to the car before bursting into tears.
    Then the red mist came down.
    I marched back into the shop and demanded off a very young boy, the customer services number.
    I rang them up, and between sobbing and crying, told them
    what had happened.
    He took the details and assured me the voucher i had was genuine.
    He rang up the store, then rang me back to say he had worded the manager and would i like to go back in and finish my shopping.
    You can guess what i said!!!
    Anyway the upshot is that i am getting a £20 gift card, and can use my voucher.
    But it wont be at that shop!!
    Nothing they offer me can make p for being called a thief in front of a queue of customers
    Sorry this is so long winded for a first post.

    Wonder what Asda will say about the new £20 cap, I'd be surprised if some sort of cheeky press release or something wasn't issued, could look like a bit of a back down on Tesco's part, eh.

    How terrible Oscar123, you think if the manager has suspected anything they would check with head office first! Shocking behaviour.
