    Not just the tomatoes is it though op? Bread mouldy and lettuce. That isn't right.

    On the evidence provided not much wrong with it.

    But if the picture of the "mouldy" tomato is all the OP sent to Tesco as well I'm not suprised that they wern't willing to do anything. Its obviously not mouldy as they claimed, so why would they think the other items were?

    Perhaps the OP shot themselves in the foot with that one, when the others may have been genuine complaints.

    True that! I've just seen the pictures as I was on a mobile device and am now on a lappy. Not the best pics for your case op.

    Nah...what about your bread and lettuce comment? Are you back peddling on that too?

    No I am not. If you see op says her tomatoes were green....which is why I asked if they were unripe or actually mouldy. I couldn't see.

    Lettuce mould would tend to be white, it is also hard to miss mould on bread. So if she has jumped the gun with the toms, does not mean she shouldn't have the money back for the rest. If indeed she hasn't over egged it....

    Which brings me back to my first point.....something didn't seem right as TESCO are usually spot on for refunding dodgy goods. So not sure what the NAH is for...

    I've never seen mould on lettuce...dark green and slimy yes. Mould on bread can be all the colours of the rainbow. The toms were not mouldy. I have seen no evidence of a problem despite the supplied pics, which is what I base my comments on. You however despite not seeing the pics properly on your mobile device which clearly are not mouldy mention bread and lettuce for which we have no pics?

    Lettuce tends to turn black/brown when off, op is exagerating somewhat.

    Op mentioned that is why. So yes she should get a refund IF they are off. Why does she have to provide pics? That's why I mentioned them.

    No they clearly aren't mouldy which I said when I saw the pics. Hence several posts trying to clarify with op. I didn't know you could only post if you could see pics?

    You seem from other threads to have issues with me, trying to specifically pick holes in my posts, whic aren't there. So crack on.
