Anyone here ever worked coding the tesco self service tills?

Tell the machine you used 500 of your own plastic bags. Bingo! 500 Clubcard points

Drag over a store assistant for a measly 20p
Just let it go. You're a loaded contractor FFS - even Bill Gates wouldn't stoop down to pick up $4000 so he's hardly likely to be worried about 20p

I had items worth £2.50 and paid with £20.00 (sorry I was out of £50s ).

I received £2.20 so was missing £15.30.

Only sasguru can afford to let that sort of money go.

But : well done for maintaining the usual standards of cuk-general posters and not checking facts just jumping to a hasty conclusion.

I'm off to tpd for some sanity....

What sort of muppet coder would not check that? Still, I suppose if they cant give out 2*10p instead of 20p......

The coder probably did a fine, fine job. Don't knock the developers

Personally I question everything : I dont just code any old sh*t.

Maybe thats why I am known as a trouble maker.......

You're a disgrace to the monied classes

To discourage this behaviour in future, whenever you go shopping you should carry a red sign saying "It is this customer's policy to prosecute all shortchangers".

You might be tempted to let them off rather than go through all the hassle, especially if it's a first-time shortchanger, but before long word will get around the major retail organisations in your area and you may become a regular target.

It really annoys them if you check your change to see if they've slipped you a fake note/coin.

Back in the days before cash machines I cashed a cheque at Morrisons and the lass short changed me by a fiver. Fortunately I'd counted as she was dealing the dosh out and flicked it back at her demanding a recount.

I was too soft in those days. Now I'd make sure she got the sack.

Which makes me think that they are trying to slip me a fake note/coin.

If so you are a muppet! When the 20p dispensor gets stuck why not dispense 2 10p coins instead of having to drag over one of the store assistant.

Whoever coded it up is a muppet.

Every time I use this machine I think to myself "If this were my development project I would never have signed it of". It's full of dumb features.

(I'm guessing it's the result of getting database type people to implement what is essentially an embedded device.)
