    I got the UHT Rice Dream today the £1.40 one on normal shelves, not in the fridge, it compared to A at £1 and the COS £1 has just paid out. Wanted to wait to see if the COS paid before I posted as it says chilled on there. So free rice milk - hope it tastes ok! Also it's date May 2017!

    Also the voucher in T June mag for £1 off Birds Eye sweet waffles, makes these free as they compare to A at £1, in the same shop as above, they are £1.50 in T!:j

    I didn't realise these were £1.50 in Mr T and £1 in Mr A :o

    Afternoon gang
    not been around much as life is too much at the mo.....one thing that happened is a customer paid our business by bacs and then claimed half of the money back...it is a scam as they had the work done and had an invoice but somehow they used a different account (not their business one) and we have now had our account suspended- we have done nothing wrong but they have claimed some sort of fraud...anyone ever heard of this before as I haven't and I work for a bank ?!!!

    Im amazed at this Wendy. In other forums I read, if someone pays for something by BACS and then it turns out it is a con, the banks turn round and say nothing they can do to get the money back, yet here, when it isnt a con, they have taken money back.

    I know and I am absolutley gobsmacked at the sheer front of the guy.
    I now think it was a scam from the start, getting loads of work done and then getting it repaid. The worse thing is this is a small family business and the bank are saying things like, if it happens again.......what ? we are the innocent ones !!
    Oh and my bum problem is worse, went to A & E inthe night and its a fractured coxis :(

    Just used two APGS to purchase Carling, both scanned fine on manned till but told operator to keep vouchers and on receipt says "asda voucher" and not APG. Have they changed things again?
