Oooh, glad you're still here aliasojo. I wondered if we had scared you off.:o

Been lurking and reading.

Kinda in the same boat as PN, OH officially redundant now. May take it to tribunal, just waiting for Monday to get legal advice.

Trying to break the 'MSE moaning' habit.

If anyone has Tesco clubcard vouchers which they are saving up - beware!
I have saved some up for nearly 3 years and have £333 worth.
I went to redeem some today only to find that my online balance was £33.00. Apparently I spent £299.50 worth instore in Blackburn on 4/11/12.
I have never been to Blackburn; on 4 November I was at home in Surrey.
Tesco say I must have spent them, or someone else in my family must have spent them.
I have the credit card (which is linked to the clubcard) here, and also all the vouchers. Apparently that is irrelevant.
A bit of googling shows up a lot of people with similar problems; I have corresponded with one lady who has had the same problem at the same time. She did eventually get her vouchers back.
Tesco are saying there is nothing they can do. I have been advised to use Facebook, as they hate criticism out in the open. I am currently messaging them privately on facebook and they still say there is nothing they can do.
Tomoorow it will have to go more public! Any suggestions welcome - but in the meantime check your account and voucher balance!

I would have hoped that if your Credit card was linked to your Club card they should be protected. Tesco have a big problem on their hands if as you say many others are having the same problems. Plain fraud of Tesco items by way of the Club card. Mmm:(

And you need to use Facebook as you hate being robbed privately.

Start a Facebook page (you join as a person, then you can create pages which are separate to your person account/profile). You log on and top right there's a drop down where you can change between your person/pages.

Call the page something like: TescoRobbedMyVouchers

Then invite everybody to join it .....

If you know performance tuning of systems and don't find Spain too much of a commute PN, give us a shout . It's a speculative role at the moment.

Work were trying to cajole me into a change in contract. Perhaps it was a cunning plan to get rid of me
I'd enjoy the challenge and could do it, but being away just isn't viable for me right now.

this is the car. he's still got it on his website.

Oh, the Ghia model. I think Pastures will give that a very big posh alert

I've got the Portfolio S of my car, so I'll be very quiet :eek:

Pastures, sorry to hear things are so difficult. I would say I'd employ you, however you're in the wrong part of the country, we're not looking for staff at the moment and I have a horrible feeling that you wouldn't want to work for me, and that I will be thrown from the NPT as a result of it!

I am a nice person, I promise, however I can admittedly be very difficult in the office, which is why I've taken to not employing friends/NP/anyone I know, really
