    The question is can you buy Berwick Rangers tickets on credit cards in Scotland and England? :rotfl:
    It should probably be "Can you buy Berwick Rangers on eBay?"

    It depends if OP comes back after going to Aldi HQ demanding that they take Credit Cards in all England stores because he demands it

    Arr matey - I think you may have embarrased Aldi corporate and their fanbois. Clearly you had your ducks in a row.
    Just broke, even.

    Netto wanted out the UK and sold out to ASDA because they were sh*t and weren't even in the same league as Aldi/Lidl.

    Kwiksave folded because Somerfield sold Kwiksave to a consortium who didn't have a clue or the financial backing to make it work.

    The question is can you buy Berwick Rangers tickets on credit cards in Scotland and England? :rotfl:

    Yes you can buy a season ticket using a credit card or debit card through Paypal on their website

    I telephoned Berwick Rangers and the answer is they don't have single match tickets to sell. You turn up on match days and have to pay cash. the guy said the ground holds 4000 people and there is usually enough room for everyone.

    Do Aldi do cash back at the tills with Credit card at their Berwick store so I could get enough cash to see Berwick Rangers ?

    If you've ever been to Boundary Park in Eskimo gear you could do Shiefield Park topless and survive!

    By the way, 372. That's my prediction for post count when this thread eventually dies off.

    The thread died off days ago. Around post #12, I think.

    All that is lacking is someone to stick it in the coffin and shovel the earth on top.

    Not even that long - no further answers were really required after zx81 responded in post #2 and summed up the chances of the OP's [strike]petty whinge[/strike]complaint being taken seriously by ALDI.

    Aldi Customer Service Manager sent me a letter to day in response to my second telephoned complaint since September 20th.

    I consider there a three errors in his Letter to me

    Error in the letter 1
    “Our Bathgate Region are the only one that currently accept Credit Card payments,”

    WRONGAldi Customer Service Manager ! According to the Aldi website some stores in Wales accept Credit Card payments and this was confirmed to me yesterday when I spoke to the Swindon office that covers South Wales.

    Error in the letter 2
    “The majority of UK based Aldi stores accept cash , Maestro, Delta Solo and Electron card only,”
    “This information is provided at all of our till Points and on the back of our weekly SpecialBuy leaflets , however we appreciate that you were not aware of this at the time.”

    WRONG Aldi Customer Service Manager !

    I decided to telephone Aldi Customer Service Manager and after a wait of 12 minutes of message from Aldi we eventually spoke. He was friendly.

    So I asked him do you have on your person now a Debit card please and would you take that Credit card out of your wallet. He did take out his First Direct Debit card and he told me it had a single Visa badge on it and nothing else. I asked would your Debit card be accepted ate Aldi and he said yes.
    But I said according to the Aldi website and the Letter you sent me it is not accepted
    “The majority of UK based Aldi stores accept cash , Maestro, Delta Solo and Electron card only,”

    NOTE THE WORD ONLY Aldi Customer Service Manager. He had to agree with me based on the information he gave me that Aldi don't accept his Visa Debit card!

    Error in the letter 3
    “your comments have been forwarded to the appropriate action” ???

    During my chat with Aldi Customer Service Manager he said that other than chat with a colleague and sending this letter to me he was not taking any further action. I got the impression from listening to the conversation that my comments are not being forwarded to the appropriate office.

    We finished the telephone conversation on friendly terms and he has advise me that he will be at taking action to inform Aldi about the mixed messages, bad signs and inaccurate informtaion and get in touch with me further regarding these issues.

    His letter thanked me for my support and interest in Aldi

    He did tell me he had looked at this thread a few days ago.
