    Won't that get the young lad into trouble if it is against t&c?

    I'm not even sure they'll notice. But I guess if it did come to their attention it would be a training issue. This really is a fault of the Tesco management and not their employees. The staff I have met have all been great!!

    Fully agree. Let's keep on the right track. Helping each other and having a laugh. I would prefer not to read about under handed tactics.


    You were the one who started talking about fraud...

    How is this fraud if you dont want something and return it, you have not got DTD on it so how can it be fraud? Im confused.

    Okay, let's clear this up. It's okay if shop was paid for with cash and DTD voucher is less than the shop value. However, the vast majority of us here (I imagine) are recycling vouchers (i.e. buying goods, getting DTD voucher, using that to buy more goods, getting another DTD voucher, etc). If the latter, returning goods that come back N/F haven't been paid for in the first place - they were 'free' or a percentage of the initial spend on the first shop. Returning them because you don't get MORE DTD on top of everything you've already had is fraudulent, plain and simple. Even if the OP didn't intend this, giving contributors/lurkers ideas and demonstrating how simple it is to do such a thing makes all of us the perfect scapegoats for Tesco pulling, or more likely altering, the promotion.

    And I'm sure with that in mind, most would agree to curb this kind of chat in favour of the mindset we all had when it first began - plenty of fun!

    My local Tesco has taken to writing 'Price match coupon' on my new receipts, so I have just been using my vouchers for normal shops. Has anyone tried 'recycling' a receipt that has been scribbled on?

    I would complain, they are not allowed to do this.

    The receipt is yours the moment you have paid for your shopping (ie before its finished printing)

    Returning an item with a valid receipt is not fraud. Have a look at the Tesco returns policy next time you are in store.

    Buying an item. Claiming your free voucher with the full intention of taking it back is in my opinion wrong. It isn't good for the thread and in my opinion is illegal. What the OP did - wasn't right and I have explained that in other posts.

    Now let's move on.

    NO NO NO Please do not spoil this thread
    Please explain how this is spoiling the thread? It's just recycling a new receipt, not reusing an old one, but my store keeps writing on my new receipt...

    cannot believe ur asking this esp as u have a £20 and a £10 voucher ready n waiting use it or give it away

    Perhaps, but given that I actully spent £47ish and only used a £20 voucher. And had the DTD not been on, I would have spent £0, still kinda leaves me £27ish gone from my bank, on items I would never have bought in the first place. I mean logically, if you can get an item half the price in a shop next door, how often would you go and buy the more expensive item.

    What I actully meant by my post, was if anyone had had any luck getting them on the DTD or speaking to CS.

    Sorry but wanted to *bump* my question,

    When does the new month start? At the first of each month or a month after I first entered my receipt details?

    Thanks

    Please go and play elsewhere. This has been a friendly post all along. All we are trying to do, is to keep things on the straight and narrow. If you like underhanded tactics there are other forums that will suit you better.
