Tesco/Asda Pricechecker Thread - part 3

Hope someone can help me.
I am on last voucher for £100 limit. When I spend my last voucher, I guess I cannot use it to pay for more DTD stuff and use new email with new receipt? As this could be traced back?

Finding it hard not to look for DTD stuff....lol. Guess I will have to start a new shop completely.

POSSIBLE DEAL J20 4 packs..on offer at Mr T for £3....but only £2 in Mr A.
At only £1 a pack my DD loves these. Think I will try these tomorrow.

My theory on it is that they somehow tie the vouchers in with the receipts. So what it would make sense to do if you are going to is get your £100 in vouchers, then with the last voucher get the best deals you can from Tescos (ie get their 3 for 2's, whatever is most useful to you, extra goodies etc), and then start over with a new cash shop and new email addy just to be safe.

The only way they'll trace that back is if you use a clubcard or credit/debit card and they scan your receipt.

I wouldn't worry.

I agree with this.

Basically it's safest not to claim a DTD voucher with one email ady, then spend it on a shop which you input into pricer checker on a different email ady.

Keep each 'chain' of recycled shops on one email ady, and only claim your £20 DTD 4 times (to be on the safe side), then spend your 4th voucher on the items that are actually cheaper in Tesco.

** Note - Some people have found Tesco are calculating the £100 per email ady on how much DTD you were entitled to, even though they are capping it to £20. So if your entitled DTD are £21-22 each time, you can only claim 4 times - the 5th might be rejected.

Just back from my local Tesco, where amongst other things I bought three packs of oyster & shittake mushrooms, all with prices marked down. I went through the self-service scanning aisle as I always do. Ten minutes later, having left the store, I noticed that for two of the packs, instead of being charged 35p and 40p, I was charged 99p and £1.35. Back to Tesco, where at the Customer Services desk, there was no quibble about the fact the price reductions should have been applied, but after checking, that Tesco DO NOT do Double the Difference refund if you have gone through a self-service checkout.

Luckily their copy of "Our Promise" was directly behind where I was being served, so was able to point out that DtD applied to prices marked wrongly both on the shelf AND on the product (they tried to tell me that it was only wrongly marked on the shelf that counted), and that there was no qualification or small print on the promise to the effect that Self-Service was excluded. I pointed out that at a single refund rate they were refunding me what I was legally entitled to, but that I was also legally entitled to be compensated for my petrol in returning to the store. I asked for a supervisor, who when he came had clearly not heard about the Self-Service exclusion, but quickly agreed to refund at double the rate.

The amount in question was only £1.69, but what really annoyed me was the clear implication made by Tesco that those using Self-Service are not to be trusted. Which is considering how they are trying to move us onto self-service as much as possible, is a bizarre way of treating your customers.
