    I was away on hols last week and cause I could not get to store I thought I would drop an e-mail to Tesco relating some of the stories re the electricals going to staff. Lovely lady called me last night and said if people would like to e-mail in then they will look into it. Maybe worth an e-mail. Yes I no I am a busybody!!!

    Is the Dell an instore only offer or glitch, as when I went to Tesco direct online it says £299?

    Its an instore price of £149. They haven't reduced the price online (yet) though staff did say it MAY come down.

    Too far for me but good luck to you if you are nearer.
  • customer services at Gallions Reach has just stated there are none left in ANY tesco's branches nationwide (pinch of salt needed here i think)

    I can safely say that's a complete lie as I just bought the only one from my local! The staff didn't have a clue! So make sure you ask them to check the stock room!

    So happy I never get enjoy these offers! Thanks OP!
  • Tesco direct have some bits for galaxy on line for half price. No good for me havent got one.

    I had this same problem with two stores - they told me they had loads but then said all stock had been reserved by staff. I emailed them to let them know and they called back within a few hours saying that they've had loads of complaints about this and they've got a meeting coming up so they're going to discuss it and ensure it doesn't happen again!

    A nice lady in customer's service searched the entire stores list for me today and unfortunately there are none left in any store anywhere in the country.:(

    Sometimes their system gets mixed up.. the other day I was in Tesco and there was only one bottle of mouthwash left.. I asked a lady if there was anymore and she checked her pda.. it said 0 left! I also used to work in a clothes shop and the system would say sometimes that there was one or two yet there were none! So store systems aren't always correct!
  • Guy's I'm trying to get hold of the galaxy tab accessories now, got a screen protector for 1p, but I've been ringing up, cant get hold of any :/
