Hello,
Thanks for submitting your receipt details for Tesco Price Promise.
Unfortunately we were unable to check your results as there were not at least 10 different items in your basket.

:mad:

well there wouldn't be enough items because the rules before Monday were only 8 items and I had 9! Grrrrrrr
i have no idea if this is Saturdays or Sundays TPP

Edit: had a quick look and all 3 I'm waiting on seem to be either 8 or 9 items so I expect I'll get another 2 messages the same as this in due course

I got this too:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
haven't got the receipts with me but I am sure one of mine even has 10 items on it double

mhoc

Please can I have a very large rant :mad:

(Anyone of a nervous disposition should not go and hide behind the sofa as a tidal wave coming )

Firstly youngest son was expecting very important letter this morning re his job application, they promised to let them know by Tuesday, no letter today. Not sure what to do now, sent son a text, he will be in bits, his nerves have been shredded for over a week now.

and then yet again our Internet is intermittent again, pages just hand, keep refreshing, some pages take 3 mins to load, checked every last thing now, iPad seems to be working for now anyway.



3rdly I checked my Quidco this morning, nothing different but then when I checked the emails I had one late last night saying something had been rejected as the receipt was folded. There was no I'd number of what the item was and as I uploaded several receipts over the weekend it could be anything. Also I've been uploading each item separately and sending 4 photos each time so nothing has a folded receipt anymore. So I've emailed the to see if they know which one it is they have rejected.

Worst of all I've just sent a long rant to Tesco via email. I did my shop on Sunday and tried to put my receipt in but the systems said I had to wait until 24 hours later. so I put the receipt in on Monday, finally came back today, over 24 hours and its been rejected as I didn't have 10 items. Actually I shopped before the new system came in and the number then was 8 not ten. And I actually had 11 items not ten. So I've missed out on my last TPP
so that's a trip to tosco this afternoon, one item is going back today and I will take the other spare items back later in the week.
so over a tenner will go back on my card, more than it would have cost them to send me my TPP

and if I don't get a phone call from them shortly - usually they ring back within an hour or 2 I will resend the email and then I will leave a comment on the fb page, if I can get fb to load!

Email customer services with a scan of your receipt - that's what I did

Have you turned router comp/ipad off and back on

Turn everything off (unplug them)
Turn the modem/router back on wait for it to sort itself out and lights as should be then turn comp/ipad back on.

When it is up and running go here http://www.speedtest.net/
and run a test see what speed you are getting
Edit : you may want to try that speed test from a few servers my first was 18 second 35 from a different one

it says freeze them for a couple of hours so I can get away with putting a few things in a cool bag for that length of time while I freeze my bananas
