This is the first time I've reviewed a supermarket for service. This Tesco branch seems to be making an extra effort in customer service. In the last two visits I had an issue each time. On one visit the shelf was missing my favourite conditioner (it was on offer so I expected it was sold-out), I asked at customer services anyway, and the nice young man checked stock levels on his phone! He said there were 4 bottles in the back and he called through to get them brought through. There was no answer. A colleague told him they were unloading a delivery. He immediatley said he would go himself, find the 4 bottles and I would find them on the shelf in the next few minutes, they did. On another day I missed the small print on the 25% off wine offer. I had assumed it was like the one at Sainsbury's and covered all wine, but it excluded wine priced below £4.35. I like Tesco white wine and had bought 6 @ £4.15... obviously not getting the 25% off. The check-out operator was extremely helpful, saying that I wasn't the only one to miss the small print and pointed me at the customer service desk to get a refund. This assistant was also very helpful, getting me a refund, explaining the price limit and recommending a slightly more expensive wine. In the event I bought six £6 bottles, getting them for £4.50 each. The wine was superb (much better than my original choice) and for little more. In sainsbury's (Shirley not Clitheroe) in a similar confusion over offer details (this was on kit-kat bars; it seems 4-finger bars and kit-kat chunky were completely different categories of product!) I was made to feel like an idiot and a fraud. In Clitheroe Tesco's I was treated exactly as I expect, a valued customer who needed help. Well done Clitheroe Tesco's, less well done to Tesco who could have avoided the problem by matching Sainsbury and giving 25% off all wine.
