Advantages: Tesco club card, No fee
Disadvantages: Impossible to do business with
I have used Tesco Visa Card since it's inception. Then they decided to change my house number to 144 from 177. Why and how is probably a testimoney to total incompetence. A bill went astray. They charged me a late payment fee plus interest. They admitted their fault but didn't refund the fee and despite five requests never gave me a copy of the errant bill so that I could check it. Eventually I returned my card in pieces and asked them to return the positive balance of £46 ON MY ACCOUNT. They expressed their sorrow but have failed to return the £46. I tried taking out a new card to spend the balance but despite assurances that it would arrive in a few days it never did. Currently I am trying to find the name of their MD so that I can take legal action against the company. I have never yet had to work so hard to get some semblance of justice against such a totally incompetent company. Steer clear of them they are far too much trouble to justify any percieved advantage.

- 16/04/02 Sorry you seem to have had trouble with TFP, I worked for the group for 11 years and after Sir Iain departed from the company you could tell the way the business waas run from a management point of view. Terry is Chief but John has always, in my opinion, dealt with any issues speedily. Can't say I'm surprised though, I don't even have a clubcard now and with the recent survey of top 100 companies to work for, Tesco got 100 Th, Asda No.1...speaks for itself....used to be the opposite way around...As an Ex-manager the number of people I dealt with who had justifiable complaints was unacceptable. Hope you get assistance soon. |

- 14/04/02 I too have experienced problems with various tesco personal finance products, if you need to complain Terry Leahy is chief exec and John Gardiner is the board member responsible for tesco personal finance. |
