Tesco rounding up bills to whole pounds without asking
Comments

It's part of the role to engage with customers. Just like when they have to ask people to remove their masks when applying think 25 or telling a customer that the voucher they just got is for 10p off a litre of fuel etc etc.
Why does this organisation that makes profits of £1,850,000,000 force its staff, some of whom may not want to, to express on their customers to pay a charity, when they could donate from their profits.Deleted_User said:
Oh well hope you don’t shop at Tesco over the coming 13 days or so as those pedlars and beggars could well be asking you if you wish to donate
Who I give my money to charity is my business and my business only. I do not like pedlars and beggars forcing their wish onto me. End of.Deleted_User said:
You do know that when Tesco ask you and you say no that’s you deciding what you do.Tesco make enough money to donate, without the thought of asking me. If they did, they can put the job lot back on the shelf.
i decide which charity I give to.Your problem is you don’t want Tesco to engage with you on this matter so really your best option is not to shop there anymore for the month of September.Also you could DECIDE never to shop there again because they did such a shocking thing.
I do not have a problem.
My financial and charity decisions are my concern and my concern only. I do not need a corporate body to enforce their token charity onto me.
No one is enforcing anything on you and if you feel so strongly about it then do not shop at Tesco. This is no different than years gone past when you would get people at the end of the checkout asking if they can pack your bags for you and you can throw money in a bucket for the charity or not.

If they are adding it to your bill without your consent or knowledge, yes they are.Deleted_User said:

If I want to engage with the checkout girl, it will be to tell her the price is incorrect, correct now. If not, put the job lot back on the shelf.Deleted_User said:

This is no different than years gone past when you would get people at the end of the checkout asking if they can pack your bags for you and you can throw money in a bucket for the charity or not.If your over charged for your shopping (I’m assuming it is shopping as I have no clue what a job lot is!) then you can leave without having to take the items or pay for them. Unfortunately though there is a high chance that if you go through the checkout the cashier will ask “Would you like to donate to charity by rounding up your shop to the nearest pound” So the whole charity thing that annoyed you at the beginning will still be there.1 -

So guilting you into donating to a charity then? Because you don't want to be the "a******e" who just packs their own shopping and doesn't pay someone to perform a service they're perfectly happy to do themselves?Deleted_User said:

Society currently has not deemed this illegal. So people who feels guilty or an a**e for making their own decisions in life needs to go away and try and come to terms with who they are as a person and figure out why they feel like that.0 -
