Thespence Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 UK biggest retailer in battle with Spiv Tesco sues for refund on bicycles order Britain's biggest retailer is taking legal action after mistakenly paying almost £1m for six bicycles which should have cost less than £1,000, sources said today. Tesco is seeking restitution of the overpaid monies following the error by its finance team. The supermarket chain should have paid Universal Cycles, a subsidiary of Sports Direct which is controlled by Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley, £984 for six Muddy Fox Suspension Bikes but paid £984,000 instead. Universal, an Essex-based company majority-owned by Sports Direct, has paid back £863,000 but Tesco claims it is holding on to more than £121,000 in outstanding funds, sources said. It has launched legal action at the High Court to recover the remaining money, legal costs and a further £1,783 - the sum the retailer claims it is owed in interest at 8 per cent a year. The error was made on 13 August and Universal was asked to repay it 15 days later. Universal then repaid some of the funds on 29 September, but £121,412 is outstanding, sources said. It is understood a meeting will be held between the two parties in a bid to resolve the dispute out of court. A Tesco spokesman declined to comment on the ongoing case. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/tesco-sues-for-refund-on-bicycles-order-1827136.html I wonder how the person who pressed the wrong buttons next one-to-one with their line manager went.

Benwell Lad Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Should we have a thread every time a story comes out about someone getting a huge telephone or gas bill by mistake as well ? Better still why don't we have an individual forum like the chat and travel ones, for Sports Direct and Ashley casino type stories so those who get off on him can indulge themselves and leave this one for football.

Thespence Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 The spiv has a new chairman at Sportdirect not sure if Llambias was in the running but he has plucked former copper & drug czar Keith Hellawell to run his company. Well when I say run it obvious Keith has been brought in to deal exclusively with fending off the SFO & OFT after his recent success of defending Goldshiled against the SFO. I think this is his best appoinment sicne he first come on my radar when bought in to NUFC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Just read that Robin Van Persie's injury has been reassessed, and it will be "4 to 5 months" out. Sometimes I think the Arsenal players are like reverse Wolverines. Every time they have an injury they never heal in the expected time. Poor guy too, he was having a very good season.
