The reason I got a lot a lot of R&R was that the store couldn't be bothered to replace the incorrect shelf price tickets after giving a refund for a pricing error - so when I went back the following week the same price error could usually be found.
I was made to feel like a criminal - Trading Standards told me that I was doing nothing illegal, but that the store was, by failing to correct known misleading prices - they said that a one off error is understandable, but failure to correct, once notified, is unacceptable at law.
The store did mention that it was having problems with customers switching price tickets, so I imagine that was at the back of things - they did not accuse me, otherwise I would be much better off from the damages that a court would have awarded me.
so after realising that you werent the one breaking the law and infact tesco were,...could you go back or were you still banned???...its just madness,rather than banning you they should employ people like us, were the ones who would save them money by spotting these discrepencies to begin with!!0 -
I shop in the Longton store most days and i can tell you know that if you go to the CS desk with a DTD query they go to the product to check the price ( always go with them ) and take the wrong label off... They know to give you DTD as i was told this by the CS... " if its wrong we give you DTD " . Oh course i acted all innocent !!!
Longton is a huuuuge store, but generally pretty good on the ticket change.0 -
