    Feel like ordering a case to see what happens. Only gonna cost a euro in any case :D

    Delivery is 7.50 unless I ask them to deliver them next Tuesday. Do you think they'll honour it next week?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,959 ✭✭✭✭scudzilla


    I've ordered a few boxes and asked for delivery time of 11-1 tomorrow, i know it's 7.50 but i want them as soon as before they realise the fcuk up

    Dang, got my tesco order delivered today.

    As happened to me (with dishwasher tablets which were on the cheap) you will probably be charged the full whack but kick up a fuss and you should get the refund.

    They can't just charge ya the full price, as it's not advertised.

    They've 2 avenues to go down, Cancel the order or Send it out


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,329 ✭✭✭Agonist


    Just got my order confirmation email and noticed this:

    * Why might the guide price be different to my final bill?
    The guide price is based on today's prices instore. However as we shop for your order on the day you want it delivered, just as though you were shopping yourself, some of the prices may have changed.


    I doubt they'd ever have to honour an online error in that case.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 187 ✭✭Murilloinf


    if they don't I'm good I just bought 86 boxes of galaxy for €8,36 with delivery. left over in my dublin city gift card.

    Found a load more, including crisps and more chocolate but also found this :

    Main Content Link
    About Guide Price

    Please note that the prices on our Grocery website are guide prices only.

    The actual price you pay is the price charged in store when your order is put together for delivery. This is because:

    * The prices of some products may vary between when you place your order and when it is delivered.
    * Your Personal Shopper may weigh items like fruit and vegetables or pick pre-packed weighed items like meat, poultry and cheese. This means the price will vary slightly in store from what is on the website.
    * Some items in your order may not be available at the the time of picking and therefore may need to be substituted.

    All prices are expressed inclusive of any VAT payable unless otherwise stated.The rate of VAT is 21%.

    When your order is delivered you may return any item and receive a full refund if you consider that the difference between the price charged and the guide price shown on the Grocery website is unacceptable.

    So unsure as to whether or not to place an order

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 187 ✭✭Murilloinf


    schedule mine to tomorrow at 16:00

    ordered just over 160 items, let's see
    doubt they will deliver but as I said above, I used my prepaid dublin gift card that had 9,30 in so if they try to charge me more, they will not be able to.
    let's see

    These are all Christmas Stock by the looks of it, there is probably a good chance that the Tesco who will be doing your delivery won't have most of these. And any of the little Christmas stuff that is left in my local Tesco is still only half price (2 1/2 months later:confused::confused:) Good luck with it anyway but I wouldn't trust tesco with my credit card number:cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,710 ✭✭✭✭Skerries


    they are correcting these now and all thats left is

    Tesco Plain Chocolate Selection 150G €0.01
    Tesco Christmas Rich Mint Chocolate Selection 150G €0.01
    Terrys All Gold Dark 450G Box €0.01
    Tesco Milk Chocolate Selection 150G €0.01


    which will be gone shortly i'd say


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 537 ✭✭✭muffinhead


    If the online prices are the same as instore prices, it might be easier to get away with this at your local Tescos if it has a self-service till ;) !

    For anyone that is heading into Tescos, you can always check the price on those wall scanners they have around the store before loading up your trolley.

    The guide price is based on today's prices instore. However as we shop for your order on the day you want it delivered, just as though you were shopping yourself, some of the prices may have changed. Also your final bill can vary because:
    1. The guide price uses an estimated weight for weighed items like grapes and cheese. But what you pay will use the exact weight.
    2. If we have to substitute any item you'll be charged the price for the substitute instead. If you're not happy with the price of any items, simply return them to your driver for a full refund. "




    so if you are not happy, just return to the driver

    Not a hope. They wont have that much in stock in your local store and it will be fairly obvious that there is something up when they look at the order. :rolleyes:

    taking the piss much? This definitely won't be delivered and you'll raise alarm bells and significantly lower the chances of anyone else getting theirs.

    This is like when those people ordered 10 mispriced DVD players

    This was my first time ordering online from Tescos. Given the circumstances of the order and the T&C's i'm wondering (if they do not honour the misprice):

    - Will i be contacted before delivery to ask if i want to proceed with the order or will the driver just arrive at my home later today with a final bill equal to the actual product prices?...and i'll have to just refuse the order from them?

    no they dont contact you before delivery, they will just arrive anytime between the hours you specified.

    wether he has big bill or small bill with him is a matter of luck!

    I was meant to get my delivery this afternoon. They left voice mail saying " Sorry we have to cancel your delivery because it was Christmas confectioneries and there was a glitch in the system.”
    They didn’t leave a contact name or any word about refund. I checked my emails nothing so far.
    Just wondering if the transaction went through.
