    But MSE said in the Weekly Email that this thread wasn't monitored? All Tesco have to do is see a Mod requesting chat is kept on topic before they can threaten MSE with further action and get the thread taken down.

    (That was a bit of a downbeat post from me - sorry! :D)

    There is no way in a month of sundays that MSE will endorse the contents of this thread at all or suggest that it is being monitored. However, I think this applies to posts that have been reported where several posts have been removed due to abuse which cannot be overlooked.

    I applaude MSE for not monitoring this thread as any suggestion that they do so would undoubtedly culminate in its demise.

    SS looks good too, stebiz
    Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed. ;)

    The terms state you can't claim up to £100 OR 10 per month per household.

    My parents and my sister don't live with me or each other but I check their receipts for them. They don't have a PC but I have set up their own email addresses.

    If I am checking receipts for 3 different households and checking 1 receipt everyday for 30 days. I am within the T's & C's

    The limit of 10 vouchers or £100 per month fair use is for claiming. This would not stop me going into Tesco everyday for 30 days with 1 voucher to spend be it my mum's, sister's or mine.

    I am still within the fair use policy and it is not wrong.


    Absolutely correct.... as long as you don't use more than the £300 a month then you are ok.... many have done that in one day!!!

    LOL I don't know where they find the stamina or energy for that sort of shopping

    But, my point is, they ARE monitoring the thread if they're popping in and telling us to stay 'on topic' (topic being, 'ripping Tesco off'). They said the thread wasn't being monitored presumably to protect themselves against legal action, but the evidence is so far to the contrary.

    (I'm indifferent about the monitoring, btw. Just making a point!)

    What about my hubby who was told that he couldnt go to use a voucher again or else the police would be called...


    Have you written to head office?

    I would just call their bluff (and believe me I hate confrontation), but I hate the way people use the "I'm going to call the police..." threat; and expect you to be terrified and become complicit with their bullying...

    These worked for me twice :)
  • Tesco INVITE you to 'try again and next time we'll do better' when you find out how much DTD they've given you. If THAT isn't an invitation to shop with a DTD voucher then what is? Suggest you print that page if you are worried about reusing a voucher paid for by a voucher.

    I am sticking to the £100 a month and only one voucher per day. I have received 3 vouchers since the start of this month and used 2 of them so far. I have no intention of taking any grief off any Tesco staff when producing my next voucher. I am doing nothing wrong.

    On my first shop, the SA (male, middle aged) was chatting and laughing until I produced my voucher (£20). He then stopped chatting and called a supervisor who took it away to check. She returned and said that it was okay but looked unhappy.

    The second time, by chance, I went to the same SA who chatted away about the weather. I gave him the voucher (£10) and he went quiet but just processed it without calling a supervisor. I have done nothing wrong but it seems as if Tesco have trained their staff to be suspicious of any voucher which is more than a couple of pounds.
