This
experience
was
at
the
Altrincham
Tesco
Extra
store.
It
was
my
first
(and
will
be
the
last)
time
using
the
scan
as
you
go
facility.
The
hand
held
scanner
was
easy
to
use
but
when
I
went
to
pay
and
asked
for
help,
things
fell
apart.
I
explained
it
was
my
first
time,
using
this
facility
and
I
needed
to
be
shown
how
to
pay,
one
of
the
staff
members
on
duty,
Mr
Muhammad
Ali
had
to
be
asked,
politely,
three
times
before
he
decided
it
needed
more
than
a
blank
look
with
a
finger
pointing
to
a
payment
machine.
Then
instead
of
helping,
he
said,
"Random
check"
and
proceeded
to
scan
everything
that
I
had
already
scanned,
double
checked
and
carefully
put
away.
I
asked
why
he'd
chosen
me.
He
just
repeated,
"Random
check"
Me,
"Yes,
I
know
that's
what
you
said,
but
why
me,
when
I
was
simply
asking
for
your
help?"
No
immediate
answer,
just
the
same
unless
po
face
and
eventually
another,
"Random
check"
was
spluttered.
He
had
zero
customer
relations
skills,
and
I
ended
up
saying,
"This
is
just
harassment
and
if
you
want
to
hold
me
up
on
what's
meant
to
be
a
fast
way
of
buying
and
paying,
then
I
don't
want
any
of
these
goods,
you
can
put
them
all
back".
Here's
what
he
should
have
said,
(a
smile
would
have
not
have
gone
amiss)
"Hello,
my
names
Muhammad
and
I'd
be
pleased
to
help.
This
is
how
you
pay
for
your
goods
and
as
it's
your
1st
time
using
scan
as
you
go,
would
you
mind
if
I
just
quickly
checked
everything?"
My
answer
would
have
been,
"Thank
you,
lets
do
that".
Instead
he
caused
a
scene
and
gave
very
poor
service.
If
I
ever
use
Tesco
again
I'll
make
sure
to
use
a
proper
till
and
that
will
also
help
keep
someone
employed.
I
blame
Teaco,
not
Mr
Ali
who
simply
needs
better
training.
