Tesco Home Delivery Shambles

We find the most efficient home delivery service for food to be Sainsbury's. We didn't have a very good experience with Tesco either.0

Sainsburys give one hour slots and a ten pound voucher if they re late - cant say fairer than that !0

Personally found Tescos deliveries to be abysmal - not so much the actual drivers who are generally OK and turn up approximately the right time, but more the stuff that gets picked for me. My local depot employs a !!!!!! chimpanzee on a blue card cultural exchange from Colchester Zoo to pick and pack all home deliveries - hence most of my stuff has to be either eaten the night it arrives as the dates are so short, or the food itself is pretty poor - browning salad, meat going a bit off colour etc.
I do always call and they refund it back onto your card, but its still annoying. Last time they delivered I was missing a whole bag of veg - but I DID have a packet of nappy sacks (opened). As I dont have a child, I called them and asked for my veg, offering the sacks back, but they told me to keep the sacks for my dog (which I also dont have). This is the twilight world I live in.
Try Sainsburys - much better in my opinion!
Tesco once delivered all of my shopping, and also left 3 bags of someone elses shopping which was not collected from me for 2 days despite 3 telephone calls asking them to get their act together!!0 -

The drivers that we have in the past have had Sat Navs but where we live in the countryside they arent much good as they send them down a narrow road in the opposite direction to our house - we can see them. We end up with special instructions - do not follow sat nav or you will go wrong! Saying that most drivers know the area as its a rural oneWeight Loss - 102lb0 -
I used them once and it was a disaster. Half the items we ordered were replaced with 'similar' as they were out of stock. At that time we were in a first floor flat on a narrow street, so suprise suprise we ended up lugging it all up ourselves. Having said that, I do shoot steam from my ears when I'm held up on a road for someone else having a delivery! Just jealousy mainly
My in-laws ordered from Tescos and even received regular sausages as a replacement for vegetarian ones!For everything else, there's MSE :T0 -
I hear that if we continue to do everything online we wont have legs left in 4 generations.

Seriously though...lol....just drive down to Tesco!0
