Tesco misprice discussion area part 17

marymilkmaid

Ive seen the new sign up today but they are still giving the money back & (begrudgingly) the item free

In 2nd store lovely lady explained how policy works - money back & free product etc & told me an eye on the labels incase there are anymore mistakes. She didnt mention the policy changing either

There is an article in the Daily Telegraph today ( p5 ) about the end of r and r and mentioning this web site.
Apparently the xbox mis price abuse was to blame. Obviously not Tesco's fault for getting it wrong!!

So, The Telegraph has just kindly pointed out that the SEL was incorrect and that it was removed rather than the problem being corrected? Dear me....so evryone buying those salmon fillets will be overcharged without ever knowing about it.
And I bet if they'd looked properly they would've found half a dozen new mis-prices rather than the ones they took from here.

exactly supermezzo.

And I especially like the way they've tried to lay the blame at anyones door rather than their own inefficiency.....

they also forgot to mention that there was a disrepency of £20 in the xboxes.
gow was 297.xx and pes was 279.xx

How can it be considered overcharging when it's Tesco that set the prices? The consumer either agrees to pay the price or doesn't - if no SEL is displayed, then the label on the product has to be correct, if that's what it scans at.
