Tesco Puchong also cheating people on their RM10 Technika HDMI cable deal.
Yesterday, I grabbed one cable off the shelve and paid together with 30+ grocery items totaling RM189.00. This morning, I ran thru the Tesco receipt, I found out that I was actually charged RM19.90 instead of RM10 for the cable. . I'm very certain the price tag I saw at the shelve was RM10. Hypermarkets always make this kind of mistake.

In order to prevent expected statement like the above, I made an afford to explained that I purchased 30+ grocery items together with the cable in my earlier post and the it was a long list. Perhaps you are not in the stage where you have to do grocery shopping to truly understand my situation. If I purchase just 1 item of course I will realise I'm paying RM10 extra.
It was clearly TESCO's mistake when they failed to update the price in their P.O.S.
The purpose of posting this issue up is to alert potential buyers in this thread.

No, I was very well informed from this thread that the cable is selling for RM10 and I saw the price tag clearly stated RM10 but what I never expected was Tesco P.O.S haven't update the price.

Got my RM9.9 refund from TESCO today and the customer service admitted their mistake of not updating the Point Of Sale.
Dunno how many unaware customer kena con by Tesco already lah...

Not at all Bro.
Been doing weekly grocery shopping in hypermarket for donkey years and I find checking on the spot while scanning in progress at the POS is the best option as you can see the item and the price at once. Checking the receipt after payment is only good for few items purchases only. It is not possible for a cart-full load of purchases cause you don't even recall or understand certain item's name printed in the receipt and worst even if you find discrepancy in the receipt, you can't rectify it at the cashier already, you have to waste a lot of time rectified it at customer service counter.

Sometimes, we can't perfectly control the situation. When you have a cart-full load of purchases, the moment you finish transferring all goods from the cart to the cashier counter, the cashier already scanned one third of the goods.

Sorry, off topic.

Anyway I have not tested my TESCO HDMI cable. Will report my review after tested it.

All Tesco selling it at RM10. RM10 as in standard yellow price tag and not the red colour promo price tag. The stocks are plentiful, just take your time to buy.

Yesterday, Tesco Extra Cheras stock finished liao.
