Ok so if anybody remembers my post last week about online shopping? I decided to go for it and give it a go. I did my shopping on ASDA because that is where I normally go and had it delivered last thursday. Well it went great tbh - I spent £85 and got everything I orderered with only one substitution (which was a better brand than i ordered and I wasn't charged), the meat, friut and veg were great - all fresh and not fatty looking(meat) so great!

Well here is my 'problem': I haven't yet been charged for it

I keep checking my bank each day coz I like to know where Im at, I thought maybe there was a delay because of the bank holiday but I 'checked out' 8 days ago now and still nothing has come out of my bank and I have no pending transactions. I have just logged back on to ASDA and my trolley is still open asking me to checkout

I don't get it? Have they forgotten to charge me even though I have had my food? or does it normally take a while to go through? Am I supposed to do something to complete the transaction? Am I being thick here or have I got my shopping for free???

oooooh strange Dont say anything Im sure ASDA wont miss £85 x

Sounds like it was free lol! Only problem with that though is that they are allowed to still take money from you up to 6 months later.

My brother paid for petrol with his debit card at Tesco, and it wasn't until 4 months later he had some money taken from his account which he didn't know why, contacted the bank and he was informed that Tesco didn't complete the payment for his petrol 4 months earlier, and legally they were allowed to take it up to 6 months later without informing him!!!!!

So be aware of this.

Ooh right - well I had better keep that £85 to one side just incase. Tbh I'm a bit of a weird one and I do feel wrong not informing them - I know! Im mad. And another thing is that I want to do it again so surely they will realise when I do anothe order? hmmm? what to do?

yeah i'd keep it to one side too Debs just in case.

But hey ho it was Freeeeeeeee

Very hard one
weve had this done before nowhere near £85 but for a takeaway we was charged like £9 when it shoulda been near enough £20 ma oh the nice guy he is said ohno thats wrong n payed extra well the next time we had takeaway frm same place we were over charged xx
So i think i wouldnt say anything but i understand that u want to use it again if u dont i would defo keep the £85 seperate just incase xx

Result!

Although, from my experience, Asda seem to take FOREVER to take out money when you buy stuff there, even when I shop in the store at our local one, it can take days.

Keep quiet, do another shop and see what happens.
