Making complaints = freebies, money and coupons?!

it's a consumer sense of entitlement.

I reckon that kind of thing spills into your everyday life. I know a girl who used to steal from her friends, and then when she got caught tried to justify it by playing the victim because she wasn't as rich as them. You seem like the sort of person who would pull that kind of thing if they could get away with it and not even feel guilty.

Dishonesty isn't something to be proud of.

So it's not my right to complain if someone sits in my reserved seat or if I spend a lot on a meal out and it turns up cold and horrible? Seriously, surely thats better than the people who sit there whinging and doing nothing about it. I'm not some kind of common criminal! Jeez. also, maybe you should make sweeping assumptions before you know someone: "You seem like the sort of person who would pull that kind of thing if they could get away with it and not even feel guilty."

Tesco and yes i do start recognising the names theres one lady because she has complained about every shop shes ever had her shopping gets audited every time, and every time she still complains - stupid bitch cant work out that our department manager knows shes lying but customer service call center doesnt give a **** - i keep saying that the store should be allowed to deal with problems ie give us a chance to fix things so they dont have to complain or dismiss them when we know its ********!

I feel bad after Reading this I complain about a lot of things but only once falsely ( yesterday ) I bought a £40 game at tesco and it was so boring so I took it back and got a refund and I said it didn't work

That's not so bad, complaining about a defective item isn't such a major thing, either they'll test it and see it works, and just re-sell it, or claim the money back from the wholesaler, who claims it back from their supplier..up and up to the manufacturer, who is going to expect a few dodgy disks.

However if you're complain concerns a particular member of staff, or concerns a scenario where a certain member(s) of staff was involved in your transaction, then that is incredibly wrong, as you could be costing that person their job.

Great example is when we get folks saying "I gave you a £20 note!", when they only gave ten. If the person on the till believes them, their till will now be £10 down and they'll get in trouble, probably not fired unless it happens often, but still very cruel.

Oh no I never complain about any people, only ever products so its fine really. No person is going to get in trouble over it.

can you not ban her? I work at Iceland, we do home deliveries in store, as in customer spends so much, they can have a free home delivery, so we bag up the shopping as it goes through the till, crate it up etc, so unless a whole crate(containing two bags usually) is forgotten and left at the shop, their delivery can't really be incorrect, as in two items randomly missing. But we still get folks complaining, thing is we have one copy of the receipt and they have the other, some folks are so dense they'll try and claim for items they didn't even buy! If someone complains every time we can simply refuse to give them home deliveries any more, as we can if someone arranges the time, but isn't in, and that becomes a constant pattern.

As I'm a low-earning full time student, you can imagine I'm always on the lookout for how to get freebies, etc, and I came across a short article about somebody who complains everywhere he goes, and receives tons and tons of freebies. For instance, his example was when in McDonalds, he wrote to 'Head Office' and received £20 in vouchers for the restaurant.So It's got me thinking, if this guy can do it, why can't I? Have any of you ever done this? Or how would you go about it?Yeah, it seems morally wrong, but is it?, considering they are huge capitalist money makers anyway?

this just reflects on what sort of a person you are.
