    when you do a screen shot like that on mobile, can you paste straight on to here or you got to use a site like pb :)

    I don't get it Yoghurt Queen.....what did you do?

    Also, don't get how you could have spent a grand this month....we're only 8 days into it! I'm sorry this has happened to you but really don't understand why?

    I know i've brought it on myself, and I know a lot on here will say I told you so, etc. and I know I wont get much sympathy, but I'm truly gutted tonight. Really really upset. After shopping in Asda for over 25 years, I was banned today, with zero chances to explain myself.

    Apparently, they have been monitoring (tracking) me, and I've spent OVER 1,000 in their store this month. I guess this could be true. Or close to the truth, I am too upset to make any real calculations.

    But I'm very very upset. I thought id share this, incase it helps someone, and I might get some support of some sort. I feel like Carp. They say i've been banned for LIFE from EVERY asda store! And if I dare to enter one, then I'm trespassing. I even signed a form to say this.

    Any help appreciated.

    That is very extreme. I can't believe they persuaded you to sign a form without giving you a chance to explain or let everything sink in. Hope you're ok though :A

    what was the ban for?

    The words frolm the manger were roughly: We have been tracking you. YOu have been using three stores He named each one), and they were correct, and he said, You have spent over 1,000 pounds worth in a month and the limit is 100. For that reason, we are taking away your right to enter any of our stores. He then handed me a form to sign. I signed it as I was petrified. I have a copy which he handed me. A supervisor was there to sign it as well.

  • That sounds almost like false imprisonment YQ! Not sure if others on here will agree or not. It would be worth mentioning this to Head Office and saying how bad you felt, that you were made to feel like a criminal etc (lay it on as thick as you like - what have you got to lose).

    I pushed my luck today, or so I thought. Found some old Duracell batteries, 2008 date, and they had leaked. Emailed Duracell and said that the Energiser ones that were from the same time were still OK (son seemed to have forgotten about some batteries). Got an email back and they are sending me a voucher! No idea how much for though!

    you should have signed nothing.
    what reason did they give you.
    Going over the 100.00 limit in one month. He said it was fraud and I was lucky he didn't call police.

    I would say that As bought it on you. Their mess ups are so tempting that it is hard to resist.

    Do you have a Ts, Ss, Ms or Ws near you to use as an alternative?

    Why did you sign the form? I would have told them where to get off. Fine if they want to ban me, don't think I would have given them permission to do so though.

    I much prefer my local Ts to As so don't care if As ban me. However, this is a good heads up for any newbies though. Don't do it if you think it might result in a ban, unless you have somewhere else you can do your shopping.

    Is there another Elite near you who can help re. glitches?

    The manager said that the limit is 100.00 per month, and that I have spent 1,000 alone, in that month. He said he had been on the phone to security at head office and they said to ban me.

    You are right. Its not even 2 weeks into this month. I am definitely going to email head office in the morning.
