spider1 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Went in a shop today a general store in S13 An lady A>O>P in front of me bought several items and put them on the counter to pay. The assistant punched the items in the till and said 20 pounds 60 pence. No its not said the O.A.P check it. The cashier got a calculator out and put items in that and said 12 pounds 20 pence. No apology given. This shop never gives anybody receipt . Are they supposed to. Next person in queue had there items put through till no problems I think all shops should be made to give a receipt by law so siblings can check the receipt for vunerable people :help: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubble3082 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I'm not sure if they have to anyway but they certainly should if you ask for one. Some people need them for work etc so I'd ask for one every time if they make mistakes of 8 quid!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubble3082 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 a receipt as to be given by law for any legal transaction I'm not sure this is true, I think it has to be recorded on the till roll by law but not receipt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leah-Lacie Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I don't believe they have tp give you one but I believe they have to be able to upon request. Same in a lot of fast food outlets, you don't get a receipt, but a manager has to be called to get you one upon request. It annoys the staff, try it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECCOnoob Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I don't believe they have tp give you one but I believe they have to be able to upon request. ^^^^^^^^^^ What they said. Shops legally have to give you a receipt upon request but its entirely the store policy whether or not they hand them out routinely. Little local shops/newsagents/fast food normally dont routinely give them out but some places differ such as the coffee shops in the train station that actually give you a free something if you DONT get given a receipt.
