I gave OP the benefit of the doubt at first
Seeing their replies since (and the Amazon ban thread) makes me go back to my gut.
My gut says OP NEVER intended to keep the vinegar. It was to boost a shop either for free delivery or to meet minimum spend. Then came the chance to also get it free and they kept quiet. Noone can seriously think a delivery driver can give away £52 and willingly let him/her get into trouble.
Technically, the driver promised and so they eventually got their refund but I'm not surprised plenty of people think the whole thing is off and Ocado CS weren't their usual immediately obliging selves.
Yes you can take your custom elsewhere OP but carry on like this and eventually you'll run out of places.0 -
Many posts with similarities to religion. All full of beliefs being used as facts.0

You obvious haven't read what was previously said carefully.0

It's hard walking away when individuals hijack a thread by spontaneously saying things like "I have a gut feeling you're dodgy" and "you're immoral doing what you've done" and "they aren't paid much. You should be ashamed". Even if they weren't a multi-million pound company, any employee shouldn't mislead the public and have a defence of being low paid and offset their responsibilities to the customer. Did people complain when charities were hunting the elderly? Charities don't get much money so I guess all that media coverage was immoral.
Back here... there was even time taken up judging the value of my shopping basket over what had happened too me.0 -

People have made their points, if you feel you acted morally correctly and you have a clear conscience that is your prerogative. If others disagree, that is their prerogative also. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.0
