'Tis a wee bit strange, but if you abide by the rules, what is there to worry about?

Hi

Maybe who else is getting the details of where you vehicle is parked overnight?

All the best

I went to get some bits for a mates car the other day and they wanted his registration number, i asked why and was told that it would tell them what make, year of manufacture, model, colour etc it was.
When i asked where they got it from they said "the D.V.L.A data base"!
They are selling our info!
It might make companys jobs easier to find parking violaters and identify your model of car but how long before some little chav gets hold of the info and vehicle's get stolen?

It would be interesting to see how they would enforce the fine.

Tescos is getting very very big now. Our local store has just had a massive upgrade, a new level opened etc.

I expect Tescos could get a lot of information about anyone and anything, even their store cards collect data.

I used to work for them, so when they rule the world they better remember me

Hi

Can't be bothered with them screaming at me to take my crash helmet off so I no longer use Tescos to be honest.

All the best

[simonthepiema...]

More worrying than Tesco getting your address is the fact that anyone of the street can apply to the DVLA for this information with some made up 'reasonable cause' I believe it costs £2.50 and any psycho you cut up (or thinks you cut him up )) can posssibly find out where you live

[it really is that quick]

[Rookie]

It's hardly a new issue, you've always been able to do that. Tesco are getting too big for their boots though.

A new Tesco Express just opened up in Cheddar, and all the business has flushed right there, it's affecting local trade severely.

And in Burnham about 10 miles away, they've gotten permission to expand by 2/3rds, double their car park and put a petrol station in.

I won't complain about the petrol station (I hate Esso, which is all there is otherwise), but they are killing other businesses round here.

It costs our company £60 to ask the DVLA to give us details from a registration number.

my tesco is very biker friendly as you can pay at pump with your card so you dont even need to get off the bike let alone take your helmet off

what i love about petrol stations is when there is a massive que i always cut the que and find a pump, its funny watching every ones faces as they cant use that pump as there cap is on the wrong side

but my m8 is a pussy he never cust the ques or filters down huge lines of traffic, as the thinks ist unfair, i say if i can fit, they can av it, and im invented this crazy rule that if theres more thatn 3 cars in front of me iv gotta get to the front

i never take my lid off even if they tell me to, as i usually pay in cash i just leave the cash on the counter and walk away, as i already have my fuel stuff em

As a point, when i worked at tesco they were just implementing this.

Dont think it reads numberplates from the rear, so bikes SHOULD be ok. Id double check obviously. They are also apparently able to tell speeds etc and inform police, who can nab you outside.

But amusingly loads of staff got letters saying 'you were spotted in upper glasgow branch where nyou overstayed. We will waive this fine this time, as you are staff'

Most of which were working those days etc. Big cock ups.

Personally id ignore the fine completely if i got one. Main reason people pay is embaressment.

[Gazdaman]

They could never enforce that fine.

Ridiculous. We used to have a booth that you had to pay at to get out of our tesco.

If you 'lost' your ticket, which blatently meant you stayed all day and commuted to London, the charge was £6.

Caused lots of problems, including several people breaking the barrier.

Never really had a problem with the helmet thing are my local tescos, but I usually use the pay at pump anyway.

[Gazdaman]

I've never been told to take my lid off at petrol stations, but then I don't wear it into the actual shop anyway.

I don't really see the problem with removing it to pay. But if they refuse to turn the pump on I'd lay the smack down.

I normally pay at the pump too.

I worked in a Tesco petrol station, and you actually have to do something to turn the pump off for a biker. It defaults to being on.

Hi

Petrol is something I want to get in a hurry. I don't want to faff around taking a lid off putting it somewhere it will not be run over / knocked off the pump / etc, faff round with ear plugs, faff round trying to dry my glasses that have got a load of extra water drops on, etc.

If they insist on me taking my lid off I will just go elsewhere (and that includes for any other shopping).

All the best

Keith

Do you wear a full faced helmet when you go shopping? Or did I just misinterpret that?
