Last Friday I came in from work very tired and hungry at 6.30pm. In the fridge I had a Tesco Just Chicken sarnie which I opened to put in some red onion. I was gob smacked dry bread with less than an oz of chicken in the point of the triangle. I was so incensed I took photos of it, the package and the analisis and sent them by email to Sir Terry Leahy (Mr Tesco) with the comment" would you like to come in from work to this?" I am disgusted with Tesco. Today I had a reply, they are sending me £10 and would I send them a photo of the bar code etc. Now tomorrow I have to sort thro' the bin liners in the dustbin to find the packaging, which I dumped. Job for the day.lol ;-)

I thought he left Tesco two years ago although I am sure there is someone on here who could correct me.
It just goes to show that if you complain you can get a result - we don't complain enough in the UK in my opinion.
I hope you use the £10 as a treat and don't blow it all on chicken sarnies!

EDIT

And please stay clear of the lamb!

I never use that store since I found out they buy land and don't do anything with it, they do it to stop the competition from building stores there, there will be one down the road from us soon and I wont go there.

Errol, It came up as Sir Terry Leahy on their website and yes he has moved on ZZzz I won't be eating their sarnies again, OH brought it as I never go there think most of their stuff is a rip off and now I know about their land grabbing I most definately won't. Hold on I have to, I've got my £10 to spend, will send OH. :-D
