I'm sure I'l be ok in a few days. But it was the shock. I felt like a shop lifter. Lots of people were staring, including hte staff who were all looking on.
I feel better having shared it on this board and getting some responses. Thanks.
I'm sorry to hear your experience YQ.
The trouble is A can identify the chain when using apg's. I tend to kill mine after 2 or maybe 3 uses for normal shops.
I would suggest multiple shops split on the conveyor or by rapid trips to and from the car would draw attention especially if using more than one decent apg daily.
I hope the dust settles on this matter for you, as I don't think they use face recognition and just rely on good old detective work by security monitoring cctv surveillance0 -

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.
It is so brave of you to post on here, and my heart goes out to you. I am pretty sure we would all have done the same as you with regards to a great glitch, after all that's what this thread is all about. I sincerely hope it gets sorted out in a positive way for you as soon as possible. xessex girl in exile0 -

Remember folks, APG's have up to a 3 and a half month lifespan if you use the system wisely so there's no need to rush to spend them all in a very short time frame potentially putting yourself at risk.0
