    I got back from my local Tesco. I thought a new month would mean easy shopping (till I hit my £100)

    Was advised by a supervisor that they will no longer accept any DTD vouchers from me ever, as I used £290 in the last 3 weeks (good job they don't speak to other stores). They must have trawled through their CCTV. The manager who spoke to me was one I had spoken to before, where I had recorded the conversation. She asked if I was recording her again (I said it is my right to if I wish (though I wasn't on this occasion)). She said she wouldn't talk to me, and stormed off.

    So they are willing to make decisions, but aren't happy to go on record with it.

    OMG, that's awful!

    Dilemma

    OH just went shopping with voucher for £7.xx but they scanned it twice and only charged him 0.Xp - bearing this in mind the receipt had over £14.xx worth of DTD what would you do????

    I prefer to keep a low profile and not kick up a fuss. Why look a gift horse in the mouth? Especially when I'm pushing the t&C's anyway ;)

    You aren't far wrong.

    It is actually £820 in 3 weeks, and I am feeding the 500 (not thousand) I run a charity event, and we like to provide refreshments, since we can't pay the volunteers.

    Well the T&Cs make it quite clear they reserve the right to refuse anyone they deem to be exploiting the scheme

    Next time you go offer to pay them back. Then you'll have done your best to be honest.
    That said, given you're sending the OH to do DTD, I'm guessing your trying to avoid something in the T&Cs, and so don't mind taking money from Tesco unfairly.

    I say Tesco found it EASY to make promises it still cannot keep.

    Well you could go back in and offer to pay the difference but be honest, If T's gave you back to much change would you tell them? Probably not, different if it's a small independent shop but a large company like T's arent going to miss £7. I wouldnt think their would be a problem with the new reeipt just put it in as normal because whenever I give them the receipt to go with the voucher they hardly look a it. I was speaking to my MIL at the weekend, she has worked at another large supemarket in CS for 30 years and she said they make allowances for tills being down, so I really wouldnt worry...
