your not gonna like this......... yes i will investigate myself and look at their conditions to see if the lady met them. they could be in trouble here if i get hold of them i will tell them to give more better services in the future for loyal shoppers. :mad:
Tell me as an outsider what's your take on the human race.0 -
the lady disabled so she should get 1st class treatment in those stores she souldnt have to make trips there and back they should honor what they say they do on the tin
Hmmm.
Now that I have stopped laughing I would just like to point out that it would not be lawful for a store to discriminate against an able bodied customer by offering "1st class treatment" just to disabled customers.
The 300 odd parking spaces right by the door and the offer of an instore personal shopping assistant should be enough.
Perhaps you would like to create yet another account to come up with something else just as mind numbingly stupid as your previous comments?0 -

I would think it was an over-enthusiastic young junior marketing person at Tesco or Sainsbury's trying to bad-mouth the competition. But you'd think they'd make up issues that would actually attract sympathy.
Maybe it's just that Asda attracts a particular type of customer...
I'd happily pay more if it meant I didn't have to have to go into Asda's - horrible shops.

You can tell a lot about a woman by her hands..........for instance, if they are placed around your throat, she's probably slightly upset.

DEAR ASDA
BEING A SINGLE MUM WITH 4 KIDS AND 3 PET FISH, I RECENTLY WENT SHOPPING WITH MY HUSBAND TO TESCO FOR SOME DOG FOOD. WEN I WERE IN THE QUE, A WOMAN BEHIND ME TOLD ME ABOUT YOUR PRICE GARANTEE.

"I'm four weeks away from giving birth and I've hurt my finger and I think this is disgraceful. I mean, it's not like they had a huge advertising campaign on TV telling the public about their price promise. Nor are there big signs in store, OR do the cashiers give out cards with the T&Cs on them....
Oh wait....""Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, But beautiful old people are works of art."

This.
I totally agree 100% everything that can be done to help disabled individuals shop should be put in place. But not to the disadvantage of others.0 -
my gran was 91, had a stroke and cancer, was a tiny lady with tinitus and she managed to get down to her supermarket to get most of her shopping in once a week, she even completely redecorated her house too and go to the hairdressers
she had a home help following her stroke which was arranged by her grand daughter, but by the time the home help used to arrive each day, my gran had already cleaned her house and the home help just used to stay for a nice cup of tea and a chat
you put a smile on your face and get on with it, different generation these days
im disabled and i get my shopping in and work full time because id rather be out there getting on with it than sitting at home on my fat arris watching boring day time tv and getting under other halfs feet0 -

i work for head office customer services for a big retailer (not asda) we get crap like this all the time, they start letters with im 65 and disabled, it !!!!es me off no end, the throw the im disabled card at you like a barricade hoping youll feel sorry for them.
one recent customer thought that because we wouldnt exchange his laptop because hed bought the wrong one 5 months later that we were discriminating against him because he was disabled!!! and we should make allowances under the disability Discrimination act for him lol.
these customers feed me. :rotfl::rotfl:0 -

Totally irrelevant but I've been off with a virus for the past two days and daytime TV is absolutely dire!! Surely this is enough to get most people off their backsides and into work??i before e, except when you run a feisty heist on a weird beige foreign neighbour0
