    Ok,

    then I undestand.
    Unfortunately, Liverpool County Court still drags people to their court, even during a riot, I didn't go, since I haden't prepared for the meeting, since I hadn't gotten a letter regarding a hearing, from them.

    So it's possible I'm not going to be shopping in that shop any longer, if I'm being thrown out.
    Thank you very much for informing about this.
    Maybe the shop should have had a poster on it, informing about this, with the 7 PM closing-time, I'm wondering, (since I used to work as a Shop Manager in Norway, I wonder about things like this).

    Thank you very much again for your reply!

    Best regards,

    Dear Mr Ribsskog

    Thank you for your email addressed to our Chief Executive's office, to which I have been asked to respond.

    I was sorry to learn that our Liverpool One store was closed before the advertised time of 10pm on Saturday night. I can appreciate how inconvenient this must have been, and would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.

    I have discussed this matter with Andy Deignan, the Store Manager. He was sorry to learn of your complaint, and asked me to apologise on his behalf. Regrettably, the store closed at 7pm from Tuesday to Saturday due to a police request. This request came in

    light of the trouble which occurred in many cities last week.

    I apologise for any disappointment caused, but hope you can now appreciate why the store was closed early last week.

    Thank you for taking the time to write to our Chief Executive’s office. I do hope we can continue to look forward to your valued custom.

    Kind Regards

    Hi,

    I wanted to complain about your shop, in Liverpool One, (the Tesco Superstore here).

    It says on the door, that it closed on 10 pm., on Saturdays.

    Yet today, I was there at 9.37 pm., (it said on my mobile), and then the hop was closed.

    (See attached pictures).

    I've checked the clock on my mobile again now, and it show the right time.

    What's going on, I was wondering, why does your shop close early?

    (This was also the case one night earlier this week, I remember, on Wednesday, I think it was, that this shop closed early).

    Hope you can explain this, since I had to shop in your other shop, at Clayton Sq., where they don't have that much budget and other stock, (since I'm unemployed, and they were sold out on noodles, etc).

    Yours sincerely,

    Erik Ribsskog

    Dear Mr Ribsskog

    Thank you for your email.

    The reason that we refer to these checkouts as ’10 items or less’, is because some customers may prefer to use a trolley to put their purchases in rather than a shopping basket.

    Some of our customers purchases may be too heavy to fit in a basket and this is why we do not have baskets only.

    I hope this clarifies our position on this matter for you.

    Thank you again for taking the time to bring your feedback to our attention.

    Kind Regards

    Subject: Re: Tesco

    Hi,

    thank you for your e-mail!

    Today I was again in your Liverpool One Superstore.

    And again I was shouted at, at the self-service check-outs.

    ‘Only ten items or less’.

    And I replied that I only had around ten items.

    I think only maybe accountants etc., count how many items they buy, each

    time they shop.

    I’ve been shopping groceries since I was three years old, for my mother, in

    Norway.

    (Even if I bought sweets instead of 2 liters of milk, at the co-op there, in

    Østre Halsen, near Larvik).

    But I’ve never used to count the items I put in the basket, I think.

    Maybe you could make a sign saying ‘please no trolleys here, only baskets’.

    Because I only remembered to count the first four items, I think.

    Maybe Rain Man counted the items he bought?

    I’m not used to this from Norway you see, do I have to count each item now.

    It’s just one basket anyway.

    I don’t understand why you have this rule.

    Why is it only ten items or less in the self-service check outs?

    Could you please explain about this, so that I remember it.

    If one just make a rule, and don’t explain why one do it, then people often

    aren’t going to understand, I think.

    Thanks in advance for any help with this!

    Best regards,

    Erik Ribsskog

    Hi again,

    now it hasn't been a problem with the carriers lately.
    But today, a woman obstructed the passage to the self-service check-outs.
    So I walked around, because the woman was like in a doze, it seemed to me.

    And then a shop-lade, around 50 years old, perhaps, screamed at me, 'only ten items or less'.
    And I knew I only had around ten items, so I told her that wasn't a problem.

    Then she screamed at me again while I paid for the groceries.
    That next time I had to go in the other check-outs.
    I told her I'd shoped there for a year, so she didn't need to scream at me.

    Then she screamed at me again.
    And I had to shout that I only had ten items, (I even counted them, and they were ten).
    I've been shoping in those self-service check-outs since the shop was new.

    And now your staff screams at me, how to do the shopping.
    I think it's a bit mind-less that you suddently starts going on about these ten items.
    The first year I shopped there, I never heard anything about this.

    Why have you changed this?
    Whats this with the ten items?

    It's annoying when you change things like this.
    And the way you make your shop-women scream is horrible, I think.

    (Maybe it's because I'm from Norway, because they don't usually scream like that there).
    Just thought I'd update about the problems there, at Tesco Superstore Liverpool One, since I've started doing this.

    Best regards,

    Erik Ribsskog

    To: ceo.customerservice@tesco.co.uk

    Hi,

    thank you for the gift-card, which I tried to use today, and which worked.

    But I'm wondering if it's like candid camera there?
    Now, the regular bags are back in the self-service check-outs.

    (So what the young woman in the small uniform said, doesn't seem to be right anyway, that there would be only sandwich-bags in the self-service check-outs).
    Also, the customers only could use cash in one, of the like ten self-service check-outs today, the queue was told.

    I just write to say thank you for the card again, but I reackon it's going to stay like this now then, with the self-service-check-outs, that the regular bags are available there.
    I've also tried shopping a bit at Aldi now, in St. Johns.

    (It's a quite new shop, less than a year old, I think).
    But there, one can't buy 2 liter bottles of water, in singles, even if they're displayed.
    One have to buy a four-pack.

    But why don't they remove the single ones then?
    I was harrassed in the check-out there, on Monday.
    I'm used with buying water like that at Tesco, for 16 pence, and I haven't got room for more than four bottles in my fridge, where I store them, and I had one bottle there from before, so I didn't really water, I just wanted to stock up, so that I know I wont run out, so I just said at Aldi, that I didn't want the four bottles.

    I have worked as a shop manager, in tree well known food-shops, in Oslo, Rimi Nylænde, Rimi Kalbakken and Rimi Langhus.
    And I've also gone to business upper secondary school.

    I don't think they can refuse customers to buy one bottle, if they are displayed.
    I was told I had to buy three more bottles.
    But thats fraud, I think.
    (When all comes to all).

    They did the same with the water with sparkles, that they displayed the singles, even if I guess they only allowed customers to buy four.
    And even at Lidl they sell water in single 2. liter bottles.

    So they were like in Hitler-Germany, I think.
    They smiled and the woman even called me 'love', and said I had to buy four.
    I think that woman would have smiled sending the Jews to Auswitz.

    (To show the point).
    I told her that water was only 16 pence, at Tesco, and less expensive.
    So I think I'll shop at Tesco now.
    Again.
    We'll see.

    She should have called a manager to calm it down, I think.
    Because I also gave her a CV which was just laying there, so I think she was very inpolite.
    So I got a bit angry, since I wasn't allowed to buy the 2 liter water bottle.

    But anyway.
    I'll also send this to Aldi, to complain, if I find there e-mail adress.
    Hope this is alright!

    Best regards,

    Erik Ribsskog

    PS.

    I couldn't see that Aldi had an e-mail address, on their website, so I guess I have to try to find that later.

    Sorry that I also started writing some Aldi-stuff.
    That was just to explain, that the problems with the carriers at Tesco, (and the bully, who followed me, the other week outside of your shop, which Liverpool One haven't contacted me about), has made me think about any other shops, that I could shop in.

    So I think if you change it to much, in the check-outs, with the carriers and all, you could perhaps lose customers.
    If there had been a just as big Asda-shop nearby, I propably had started shopping there a long time ago.

    But there aren't any Asda shops like that in Liverpool City Centre, so I'll stick to the Tesco shop I think.
    If the custommer-support is good etc.
    We'll see.
    Hope this is alrigh that I send an update about these problems.

    Dear Mr Ribsskog

    Thanks for getting back to me. I am pleased that a member of staff in the Liverpool One store has explained things to you.

    We are grateful to you for your feedback as it does help us improve the service that we provide.

    As promised, I have sent you a £10.00 Tesco Moneycard with my best wishes.

    Once again, thanks for taking the time to bring your comments to our attention.

    Hi,

    no, I don't think I need to speak with the manager about this now.

    Since the young woman there yesterday explained about how it works now.

    If you want to send me a gift-card for my time, then that's ok, I guess.

    You can send it to Erik Ribsskog, Flat 3, 5 Leather Lane, Liverpool, L2 2AE.

    But your regular bags are free, so I don't need it to pay for them.

    I just went to the staffed check-out today, and then they just gave me the

    regular bags.

    So I understand about how you've changed it to now.

    Maybe your other customers don't understand, but I've told you about now.

    It's not like I try to run the shop, or anything.

    So thank you very much for your help!

    Best regards,

    Erik Ribsskog

    ceo.customerservice@tesco.co.uk



    Hi,

    thank you for the gift-card, which I tried to use today, and which worked.
    But I'm wondering if it's like candid camera there?
    Now, the regular bags are back in the self-service check-outs.

    (So what the young woman in the small uniform said, doesn't seem to be right anyway, that there would be only sandwich-bags in the self-service check-outs).
    Also, the customers only could use cash in one, of the like ten self-service check-outs today, the queue was told.

    I just write to say thank you for the card again, but I reackon it's going to stay like this now then, with the self-service-check-outs, that the regular bags are available there.
    I've also tried shopping a bit at Aldi now, in St. Johns.

    (It's a quite new shop, less than a year old, I think).
    But there, one can't buy 2 liter bottles of water, in singles, even if they're displayed.
    One have to buy a four-pack.

    But why don't they remove the single ones then?
    I was harrassed in the check-out there, on Monday.
    I'm used with buying water like that at Tesco, for 16 pence, and I haven't got room for more than four bottles in my fridge, where I store them, and I had one bottle there from before, so I didn't really water, I just wanted to stock up, so that I know I wont run out, so I just said at Aldi, that I didn't want the four bottles.

    I have worked as a shop manager, in tree well known food-shops, in Oslo, Rimi Nylænde, Rimi Kalbakken and Rimi Langhus.
    And I've also gone to business upper secondary school.

    I don't think they can refuse customers to buy one bottle, if they are displayed.
    I was told I had to buy three more bottles.
    But thats fraud, I think.
    (When all comes to all).

    They did the same with the water with sparkles, that they displayed the singles, even if I guess they only allowed customers to buy four.
    And even at Lidl they sell water in single 2. liter bottles.

    So they were like in Hitler-Germany, I think.
    They smiled and the woman even called me 'love', and said I had to buy four.
    I think that woman would have smiled sending the Jews to Auswitz.

    (To show the point).
    I told her that water was only 16 pence, at Tesco, and less expensive.
    So I think I'll shop at Tesco now.
    Again.
    We'll see.

    She should have called a manager to calm it down, I think.
    Because I also gave her a CV which was just laying there, so I think she was very inpolite.
    So I got a bit angry, since I wasn't allowed to buy the 2 liter water bottle.

    But anyway.
    I'll also send this to Aldi, to complain, if I find there e-mail adress.
    Hope this is alright!

    Best regards,

    Erik Ribsskog

    PS.

    I couldn't see that Aldi had an e-mail address, on their website, so I guess I have to try to find that later.

    Sorry that I also started writing some Aldi-stuff.
    That was just to explain, that the problems with the carriers at Tesco, (and the bully, who followed me, the other week outside of your shop, which Liverpool One haven't contacted me about), has made me think about any other shops, that I could shop in.

    So I think if you change it to much, in the check-outs, with the carriers and all, you could perhaps lose customers.
    If there had been a just as big Asda-shop nearby, I propably had started shopping there a long time ago.

    But there aren't any Asda shops like that in Liverpool City Centre, so I'll stick to the Tesco shop I think.
    If the custommer-support is good etc.
    We'll see.
    Hope this is alrigh that I send an update about these problems.

    Dear Mr Ribsskog

    Thanks for getting back to me. I am pleased that a member of staff in the Liverpool One store has explained things to you.

    We are grateful to you for your feedback as it does help us improve the service that we provide.

    As promised, I have sent you a £10.00 Tesco Moneycard with my best wishes.

    Once again, thanks for taking the time to bring your comments to our attention.

    Kind Regards

    Hi,

    no, I don't think I need to speak with the manager about this now.

    Since the young woman there yesterday explained about how it works now.

    If you want to send me a gift-card for my time, then that's ok, I guess.

    You can send it to Erik Ribsskog, Flat 3, 5 Leather Lane, Liverpool, L2 2AE.

    But your regular bags are free, so I don't need it to pay for them.

    I just went to the staffed check-out today, and then they just gave me the

    regular bags.

    So I understand about how you've changed it to now.

    Maybe your other customers don't understand, but I've told you about now.

    It's not like I try to run the shop, or anything.

    So thank you very much for your help!

    Best regards,

    Erik Ribsskog
