Tesco Help - URGENT

I know this is the wrong board, but I was hoping to catch some Tesco shoppers, and I figured this was the most likely place to find some...!

The Tesco man has just come round and dropped off my food, I've unpacked it all and found some stuff that shouldn't be there. It's not on my receipt either, so I obviously haven't been charged for it, and some poor sod is missing some food.

What am I supposed to do?

I don't really want to keep the 'free' food: it's Bernard Matthews stuff!!

Help.

    We used to get something that we hadn't ordered every week - if I recall I phoned customer service and they said just keep it.
  • oh no not bernard matthews stuff - are you sure they weren't just offloading some unsold stock.

    This is typical, really. I stand up for Tesco and say that R&R is a disgrace, then they only go and dump free food on my doorstep... :rolleyes:

    Does this happen a lot then? It's the first time I've ever had any such problems.

    It's turkey, as well... To be honest, I'm not sure if the stuff is safe to eat? Just shows my ignorance! Was any of the BM food recalled, or is it just unpopular to buy at the moment?

    No, it was definitely a mistake, because they've also given me someone else's pizza too...
  • That happened to us a wee while ago -they just say keep it.

    Is it Turkey and Pineapple Pizza ;)

    No seriously Tesco won't want that stuff back. If you don't want it I suppose the only thing you can do is bin it. Shame I agree but I too am giving Bernard Matthews stuff a wide berth for a few months - although all the experts say everything is okay. There again they say that about mobiles and I don't let my kids have them either!!!

    Do tesco echange without a reciept? They do with games and dvds but not sure about food - maybe someone else could shed light on this?

    If so you could exchange it for something you would like from in store?
