Disgraceful service at Asda Portrack. No tills open on a Saturday morning 8am just self service. Told 9am before someone would be on the till. Had a full weekly shop that had to be scanned at self service, this took 25 mins. One lady running round unlocking people's scanned queries, took an age. Large queues. In complaining to Manager was told staff cut backs, cannot cover staff who ring in sick. No contingency plan of training others to work the tills? He was not bothered. Told Manager to take it up with regional office and informed waste of time. No apology for inconvenience. I need to do a weekly shop Saturday mornings due to work commitments. Customers want to use tills especially for large lots of shopping. Not a nice experience and justifies going to Tesco who have till operators at 7.30am or Aldi and Lidl who have till operators at 8.00am.Very disappointed in Asda if this is their new policy. I spend between 150 -200 pounds a week, so if other customers do what I do and go elsewhere Asda will lose out. LISTEN TO YOUR CUSTOMERS.
