Hi,

and how do you explain that Tesco wants to have many different types of baskets with the same volume that doesn’t mix/stock? Also, it’s not the first time I’ve complained about the Sun Sip-cola being sold out.

I think it’s better if your office serves as a buffer, between me and the Tesco Walton-employees, if that’s alright. I would have liked to asked your line-manager if that’s alright.

Thanks in advance for the help with this. Erik Ribsskog

Dear Mr Ribsskog Thank you for your patience while this matter has been investigated.

It was disappointing to learn that our Walton store did not have the items you wanted in stock during your visit on the 23rd July, I am sorry for the inconvenience caused. I have raised with matter with Colin Richardson, the Walton Store Manager, he has asked me to pass on his apologies to you. Colin has advised that the items are now back in stock and that he would be happy to meet with you in store to discuss any concerns you may have. He has also advised that he would like to give you a couple of bottles as a way to apologise for this matter arising. I have reviewed the previous correspondence you have had with this office and I can confirm that our position is unchanged with regard to our baskets. I am sorry that you will be disappointed with my response. Thank you for taking the time to contact the Chief Executive’s Office. If you
have any further queries please don’t hesitate to get back in touch. ……………… Original Message ……………… To: ceo.customerservice@tesco.co.uk

Subject: Re: Email to the Chief Executive’s Office think. So now I send all the Tesco-complaints to this e-mail-address. Tesco Walton and Tesco Superstore Liverpool One also have a problem I
wanted to complain about, by the way. And that’s the baskets. Tesco Walton now have three different types of baskets. One type which is made of dark blue plastic. One type which is made of a bit less dark blue plastic. And a type which is made of metal. And these three basket-types doesn’t stock with the other basket-types. So it’s a bit chaotic in the check-out-area, with the baskets. Since they don’t stock. If I put a dark blue basket on top of a less dark blue. Then the dark blue basket doesn’t fit, in the less dark blue. Even if they are about the same size, in litres, (it looks like to me). Also the metal ones are about the same size in litres, (like it looks to
me). I think it’s odd that a big organisation like Tesco isn’t stream-lined. I have to focus on the baskets when I shop at Tesco Walton. It’s like you have to be an expert on Tesco-baskets to shop there, I’d say. It’s like you want to bully the custommers from Sainsbury and Asda who want
to try Tesco for a change. Then you aren’t going to get many new customers, perhaps. If this isn’t something you do to make people use the trolleys then. Because I’ve worked in a grocery-chain named Rimi, in Norway. And they were a bit sceptical with having baskets, in the shops. They only wanted trolleys, (for the customers). Since customers with trolleys usually buy more, than if they use a basket,
to put their groceries in. But three types of baskets. Which doesn’t stock. I think this is how a shop in the third world would have done it. Why aren’t you more stream-lined, (and ‘Western’), I’m wondering. And it’s almost the same at Tesco Liverpool One. Except that I haven’t seen the metal-baskets there. But they have two types of blue baskets, (with the same volume), that
doesn’t mix, when one stock them. And that’s odd for a new shop like that. Liverpool One has only been around for two or three years. And this is also a Super-store. So then it looks like to me that Tesco has problems when they want to have
a ‘chaos-system’, like this, with the shopping-baskets. (I’ve studied Information Management and have gone to commerce-school and
have worked as a retail-manager. We learned at commerce-school that ‘the custommer is always right’. But I don’t think Tesco agrees with this, when I see many different types
of baskets, that doesn’t stock, in your shops. Then I wonder if the whole Tesco-chain has lost a bit control, to be honest. Erik Ribsskog
