    Complain via email to Uncle phil with a copy to tesco customer service as well.
    Something along the lines of

    Dear Uncle Phil.

    I have been a regular shopper of Tesco for years now, but like a load of other customers I am gonna go to Asda for my £200 a week shopping for the following reason:

    I went into my local tesco express today to use a Tesco refund the difference voucher cos you admited you ripped me off on my last shop. I was told by the staff that I was using a forged voucher and they not only took the voucher off me but my receipt as well. Not only was I shown up in front of a shop full of other customers, some of who were my neighbours, but I was made to feel like they thought I was a thief, when in fact your staff are the thieves for stealing a receipt which belongs to me and not honouring a voucher which was given to me for your thieving on my previous shop.

    The majority of staff at customer service and the tills are miserable and nasty. They are either not well trained or just do not care about Tesco and the reputation you have,. To your staff the customer is always wrong even if it is in black and white (or blue and white on your board behind them). This is obv recognised by you as you have said in recent weeks that you are going to employ a lot more customer service staff as this is where you have gone wrong. The only problem with this is you need to employ nice and pleasant staff who don't think that customers are beneath them.

    You think we are all thick and don't understand you putting prices up by double for a month so you can reduce them to half price and pretend your giving us a great deal.

    You stopped the double the difference and limited the refund of money you ripped us of by to £20, cos you couldn't back up your promise unlike your rival asda who does not limit their price guarante voucher.


    When reading my letter to you I wonder why I ever shopped in tesco in the first place and have not gone to Asda a long time ago like a lot of your customers. IF you want my £200 plus a week shop and to continue trying to rip me off with my shoppping then you have to send me a gift card to the value of 5 weeks shopping (£1,000), an apology and promise me that the staff at the express will give me a full apology, bunch of flowers and free sweets for my kids every day for a year.

    I would also like the double points back, competitor conditional spend coupons to be taken again and coupons as cash like before black friday. Finally I would also like double the difference back

    Thank you for your time, I await your quick reply otherwise I will give the Sunday Sun a story to write about instead of writing about katie price/Jordan this week (again).

    You can obv use as little or as much (wouldn't use too much, you do want a reply):cool: as you want of the above farmville, but make sure you send it tonight or tomorrow whilst it is still fresh in your mind.

    Hey Blue, this is a fab letter!

    I will keep this in case it happens to me again :rotfl:

    No probs. If you want you can write the letter and send it to my email for me to look over before you send if your not confident in what you write. Maybe Best price can give you some tips on what they wrote to get a decent response;).

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:I am lucky with my express as I taught them all about coupons with cash when it was about and my express opened new so the ones which are left know I never pass dud coupons or vouchers and know the latest Tesco policies etc. They are very friendly and cannot do enough for me, in fact it is like shopping in Harrods:D

    You have to enter them by Wednesday, but thanks for the offer. If your friendly with your neighbours maybe you could ask for their papers on a monday so you can plan the kids weeks activities:cool: Then you have the codes to enter yourself :D

    MT, can you PM me please :)

    Farmville, not sure if you are aware, Tesco express are franchised operations. although they report to Tesco and use their stock, the shops are owned by people who have franchised tesco express from Tesco. So yes, slightly different people who work indirectly for Tesco.

    It looks a bit better now and more like you have been doing your visiting. I thought you had disappointed me this month, but it may end up being a record one :beer:
