Tesco double charging me anyone else?

[maca07166]

Every now and then when I use Monzo at Tesco for example last week I bought 2 packs of cigarettes for a family member it came to £18.58.

The next morning at 0530 I get a notification for the same amount charged and it sends me overdrawn.

The Tesco I shop at doesn’t even open at 0530

Anyone else get this?

It seems to be fairly common with Tesco

Tesco charged me twice

Hello. Maybe someone know how to return my money? Tesco or Monzo charged me twice… I made a purchase at Tesco around 10 am they charged me normally. Following night I received spending notification from Monzo for same ammont 1.30am card purchase when stores are closed. I contacted Monzo support… Thanks for getting in touch! Sorry to hear about the trouble with this. It looks like Tesco have created a new payment today instead of collecting on the original authorization from yesterday. Th…

Tesco - potential double charge

Hmm… another day…another tesco/google pay problem. might have to stop using google pay (happy with monzo). Used google pay in tesco. Got a message on the till something like “contactless not available - enter card and type pin” so I did so and it worked. But within monzo (there’s nothing in the google pay app) I can see two transactions for the same amount 1 minute apart. I selected one and tried to reverse it (i found the wording here very confusing) and got told to use chat, then got told…

Duplicate Transactions/Transaction value retroactively changing (Tesco)

Has anyone else experienced duplicate transactions before in Tesco? It’s happened to me a couple of times now. Each time, I’ve purchased something from Tesco in the evening, the payment has gone through fine, and then later on, in the middle of the night, the transaction duplicates and I get charged twice. In each instance, the original transaction has still been in a pending status (not surprising as its only a few hours later), but the duplicate transaction doesn’t show as pending. Support…

Well at least it’s not just me I get refunded eventually not the point though.

Never happened to me and I’ve used Tesco 37 times.

Knowing my luck I’ve jinxed it now and it’ll happen next time.

They’ll wait especially for you to do a big big shop

I always use their Tesco Pay+ app you don’t need to user Clubcard and payment card as it is all together in the app. This may explain why I have never had the problem.

It’s not all stores and it’s not that frequent

[maca07166]

As usual I got my refund automatically today, as others have said it doesn’t happen with every transaction I looked when it last happened and it was over 2 months ago for a 60p chocolate bar.

I typically find they automatically refund the money a few days later at some obscure time of the night.

I think in future I’m going to use my credit card just to avoid the hassle and overdrawn issues because I have all my money in pots and only withdraw when I’m about to pay.

It’s happened to me three times, but not recently the last being a few months ago. Monzo should be pressing MasterCard who should be getting heavy with Tesco over it. On this forum I often read reports of it happening, and with most Monzo users not being members here how frequently does it really happen?
