Anyone having trouble with Tesco this evening?

I am 3/4s through my on line shop at Tesco when suddenly found myself in a waiting room. Asked a friend to try and she also found herself in the waiting room!

Anyone else?

@Ilovemyshoppingtrolley

Have you checked out??
Yeah I checked out and everything when I got the slot, I was just going to log in this eve and add in everything we need ☹️

Same problem, though they were cherries but apples seem more likely . Also have basket saved with crazy choices, I've screenshotted the apples cherries to explain in the morning if I can't amend

I think I've got one bottle of champagne in mine. The drivers are going to be so pissed off when everyone sends them away tomorrow.

Yes been a bit weird earlier today when I went to check my delivery and asked me to sign in again, then loaded up and all ok (about 7pm).

smackeroonies · 19/08/2021 21:25

If I'm in a waiting room I want a copy of Take a Break. Not a picture of apples 🍎

brokenbiscuitsx · 19/08/2021 21:25

Well looks like £40 of cucumbers are coming tomorrow, serves me right for holding it and leaving it to the last minute to edit it I guess 😒

ThePersonFromPorlock · 19/08/2021 21:25

I wish there was champagne in my basket. Also like the sound of those lemon drizzle muffins ...

PinkCosYouAreSoVery · 19/08/2021 21:26

Can't wait to find out if pp gets all the cucumbers!

@brokenbiscuitsx Can you imagine the delivery driver's bemusement! Seriously though, I hope you get it sorted, such an inconvenience otherwise. I've left the queue now as feel bad for only wanting cakes adding.

brokenbiscuitsx · 19/08/2021 21:32

@SisterJude

Why £40 worth of cucumbers? Why not just one? I know £40 is the cut off point for being charged but if you were going to change it anyway?
Because it wouldn’t let me check out with anything under the £40 at the time 😔 so to hold the basket I had to up the amount.
queenmeadhbh · 19/08/2021 21:34

Does anyone know, if e.g. you have checked out with a basket of £1 milk, intending as you always do to finish the order at 9pm on Thursday night, so the total is showing as £1 milk + £4 under basket charge = £5……if he turns up tomorrow morning with my milk, and I send him away, do they refund me the whole £5, or just the £1 for the milk I have returned?
Don’t really fancy paying £5 for 2l of milk, but equally would prefer that to paying £4 for nothing!!

neonjumper · 19/08/2021 21:34

They are having problems in store as well. Not accepting payment via Apple Pay etc at tills , luckily I had my card with me ... but huge queues at till .

PinkCosYouAreSoVery · 19/08/2021 21:34

@ThePersonFromPorlock - I've left the queue now so you're welcome to my muffins!

@brokenbiscuitsx

I held my basket with £40 of cucumbers! 😣 Was going to edit the basket after tea, now I can’t get in and get through on the phone either. ☹️

What will happen if we can’t amend or cancel by 11:45? They surely won’t send this order?!

Maybe it can't handle it and will send you all the ingredients for a Greek salad.
CabbagesGreen · 19/08/2021 21:35

@queenmeadhbh very good question. I imagine they are having some sort of crisis meeting to work out how to refund everyone.

catnidge · 19/08/2021 21:36

Also stuck in the waiting room and hoping my amended order has actually gone through.

They do sometimes call if you have a few bizarre items in the basket.

I was wondering this too!
CherryCoco · 19/08/2021 21:39

Same online with Asda!

brokenbiscuitsx · 19/08/2021 21:41

@Shirleyphallus I couldn’t check my basket out to hold the slot unless it was under £40 😔

Do you mean over?
