    Okay i worked at tesco for near on 6 years. The store staff have NO RIGHT to do what they did. They can ASK to do a bag check and, if you refuse, then security will come over and address that someone has claimed you stole something. The staff cannot physically touch you and, if they do, WILL be suspended for misconduct.

    The same thing happened to me. Did self scan, got stopped, and searched. I was filming the whole thing with my phone. Security guard snatched it out of my hands. It turned out they owed me £3.60 because the scanner scanned sausages 3 times instead of once. The security guard got arrested for battery.

      i was in a small branch of tescos a year ago and a young girl told the security guard i hadnt paid for something and to get me back in the shop. In my case it was because i had scanned the same item on 2 different self service machines but they didnt know i had done that. looking back i think its a case of inexperienced staff, and a lack of staff that lead to this kind of thing happening. I just feel lucky i dont have to work in that kind of place. About the lady not liking being filmed. Thats a red flag to me. If shes not doing anything wrong she shouldnt be that upset about it.
      Personally i have no time for sainsburys. You see how they deal with complaints nationwide. they are 100% against any complaint and will look at how they can minimize, shut down anything. i saw a black member of staff being bulled and being made fun of. He was the hardest working guy there. They panicked when they realised i heard what they were saying. This kind of thing happens because they are protected by management.

      We went to Tesco recently for the first time in ages as we usually just do an online order these days but it was so sad to see just rows and rows of checkouts not just closed but boarded up. This is a HUGE Tesco and there were literally about 2 checkouts open and then a huge queue for the self checkout.
      Both my mum and my partners late mum used to work for Tesco years ago and it is sad to see how much it has changed.
      I personally hate self checkout. I always feel self conscious doing it, I feel rushed, feel like I’m going to get it wrong and it just stresses me out! So I will always wait for the normal checkout! But I fear that it won’t be long until they are scrapped altogether 😔

      i agree 100%. When supermarkets introduced self-serve tills they did the Cost Analysis including expected losses due to theft. Even including those losses, the savings from ditching staff are still massive - no wages, no Sick Pay, no National Insurance. Now they want MORE savings, and are happy to inconvenience and delay us to achieve that. Just wait until the 'Checking Queue' is as long as the queue at the till, and we have to endure both before we can leave.

      Just to clarify what i meant in my first reply, when you are not undercover... Yes you have to display the badge, but there is no legal requirement to show in detail, what is displayed on the badge, such as your SIA number, name or its expiry date to a member of the public. Only a police officer or SIA agent can ask to see its details.
      Covert activity
      You do not have to wear your licence where it can be seen if the work you are doing requires that you not be identifiable as a licensed operative.
      Examples of when this might apply are:
      you are a store detective
      you are a close protection operative covertly guarding your principal(s)
      You must still carry your licence on you and be able to produce it on request.
      Thats straight from government website.
      As to answer your question. Yes, people have lost their licences for not wearing it when they were required to do so (just not when you are working undercover) infact the SIA release publicly viewable monthly updates that literally name and shame people that have broken the law in terms of SIA policy. You can go on their website and see who has been prosecuted for working while not licenced etc.

      He looked at her and said what are you on about and she repeated loudly and aggressively that filming is not allowed in the store.
      Again he said I don’t understand what the hell you are talking about, to which she pointed at his phone which was in top breast pocket stating “you have positioned your phone in your pocket so that the camera lens is looking forward and is poking out the top so that you can film in here, and demanded that he stop filming.
      He pulled out the phone and showed her that the camera was switched off and that he wasn’t filming, saying that I always put the phone in with the screen facing this way so that the screen doesn’t get scratched.
      And I don’t appreciate being shouted at the way just did.

    I bought a pressure washer at B&Q the other day, they have this year gone around 90% self-checkout, and like a vast majority of self-checkouts I got an on-screen message saying there was a fault with the receipt printer. I waited until I could get the attention of a staff member and she changed the roll so I could get my receipt in case there was a warranty issue or fault. As I was leaving the store the alarm went off, because nobody is disabling whatever security tags were on the items, and just such a Karen looked at me like I was a criminal and asked "Have you paid for that?" If I hadn't forced the store to provide me with a receipt, which many people won't bother to do, where would I have stood? Self-checkouts are just greedy cost-cutting at the expense of employess and massive inconvenience to the customer.

      Many years ago , not long after moving house , my girlfriend and I went to B&Q , buying a lot of DIY stuff , garden tools , pots of paint , wood etc ; we had two trolleys and the bill was something like seven or eight hundred pounds ... The young girl on the checkout appeared to be unsure of what she was doing , and confessed it was her first day ; at the end I said to the older lady supervising that I wasn't sure the total was right ; so we started again , and this time it was something like £50 more . The older lady quipped something like I should've just taken the first scan , and I replied I didn't want to see the girl get into trouble if she'd missed something .
      It was only a couple of days later when I went to use the new lawnmower we'd bought that something made me check the receipt - you guessed it : it hadn't been rung through !!!
      it wasn't a massively expensive item , just a basic own brand electric lawnmower costing something like £50 or £60 , and we were not well off and trying to set up and furnish our first house .
      We debated the point , reflecting that we'd spent an extra 15 or 20 minutes letting them ring it all through again at our insistence in trying to be honest , and actually paid more than the first girl rang up .
      In the end we decided that we had tried to do the right thing , and the mistake was theirs , since they'd got it wrong twice ; and we decided just to leave it as it was .
      It always made me wonder how accurately checkout assistants ring things up , especially in supermarkets where small items are rung through with amazing speed .

      I used to work for a supermarket back in 1990s. Although they wanted you to scan the items quickly at the checkout, we still helped to pack the bags and stop scanning if shopping built up. Now self scanning back then, no time limits on how long someone should be at a checkout. These greedy supermarket bosses need to bring service back to the checkouts. The money and time spent on staff and looking after customers will be money well spent, and losses saved on theft would cover that.

      And theft in store goes back a lot further than plastic, people with child seats, ( buggies/prams), have been stealing for a very long time. Which may be the real reason why trolleys can carry infants, pretty bad for pester power however, as you raise the child's eyeline and so they can make decisions on more premium products.
      This fact is also not lost on retailers

    Supermarkets have GOT to stop alienating customers by putting them through checks. I hate using self-scanners so I've not had this experience, but I've stopped going to my local Sainsbury's since they installed barriers so you can't go in and look around for bargains (e.g.) as you have to ASK to leave the shop. Not only that, but they are SO aggressive about it. Also stopped using my local M&S since they won't open a personal till unless you're elderly, disabled or with children. Surely this isn't the future of shopping? I would never dream of stealing from anyone, let alone a shop, and I really resent that all customers are treated as potential criminals.

I figured out shop lifters wait for people with loaded trolleys then go through the barrier with them and slip out leaving innocent shoppers to be searched. Now if someone comes along side me, i stop dead and let them go through alone. I'm buggered if I'm going to be embarrassed and treated like a thief .

      I discovered before (in Tescos) that false accusations and searching the shamed honest customer that would cause a riot if done in Brixton suddenly became a normal part of life and to be tolerated and expected, became normalised. I realised that it happened most often when i bought wet fish. They eventually closed that bit of customer service. The white staff lost their fish chopping gutting jobs but not the coloured different folk in security. They had a turbaned security gent with a clip board once taking down details of what i’d bought that might continually set off the alarm..And I told them i’d stop buying prepared wet fish (it’s not what i’d imagine even an expert shoplifter aiming at) and it’s evident that other customers stopped too. One guard (this was a friendly charming young black kid) saw cd’s i’s bought from a different shop and suggested it was the cause but i keep a an eye on their pockets as I’m certain they have a remote to fake trigger the alarm. Sometimes i’m amused at the way a portly black guard races after me in the co-op suspecting me of heading to steal the booze when I abruptly stop in front of the pet food i’m buying. My high streets survey indicates that if you are a shop worker/security out of your home area ie Eastern European, from Liverpool (i’m talking about in shops down Sarth) or dark skinned you can happily aggressively rudely arrogantly and insultingly falsely accuse intimidate cause alarm and embarrassment profile overcharge and search white peoples, even though they are supposedly security. Cause if white peoples behave like that we’d be branded as racists. Well let it come back upon them, i bet they had half of Hamas working as security for them, may they go home on their holidays because when it comes to suffer my daily dose of racism they cause it. If they’d seen what i had to put up with working in Brixton, they’d scream racist blue eyed devil at me and try and attract a racist lynch mob. Cos that’s what they tend to do when they steal, and if they can’t steal they’re using authority over the public that the mainly jewish owned companies are employing them and empowering them to behave like arrogant threatening invaders overseeing the native white people like we are prisoners in their open prisons. Just like the same companies insist that no white straight sex couple should appear in their anti-white racist propaganda oh you mean that they really wanted to sell me a product by using the gay white passive idiot, the vain red headed vain glorious stupid lesbian, the stupid white man who can’t scan his card while the black man sniggers behind him etc and the only time you’ll see a beautiful blonde you automatically know to expect her pimp daddy in the next frame, the question is why would jewish businesses and jewish advertisers mount and anti-white propaganda campaign and simultaneously employ what appears to be a “security” force of people who are from a different race and different cultures and alienate us, they employ and i fear train covertly the same looking people who raped and slaughtered their youngsters etc last month. it seems part of their job to keep us hating them a little bit more each time. It’s like they are teaching us that the old smears of the past are true, and that cliché came from some where. Well don’t break the arrow, shoot the archer instead. Use your independent stores, trade with your own and they’ll close up and go to America/Europe/Israel/ like BBC employees do, or wherever they like their staff from Africa Arabia S,America, anyone who has a desire to lord it over the white man. Try it in their country. ‘You iz jusa fin customer you as no fin rights, iz jus english is jus your language iz breetain iz every body’s country” except for us, and I don’t know abut you but i have no special to me back-home- in on a different continent. Unlike them. Boycott them. I hate to encourage shop lifters. I feel a primitive disgust towards them, but the only consolation i have is that whilst these foreigners lord it over us someone’s stealing. I even saw a sports sack opened full of a counter’s worth of cheddar. When i told the guards they didn’t care, too late now, so i wasted my time but i knew that already otherwise i’d never have told them. Snide see, i’m larnin. Pretty negative places nowadays.

      Professional Shoplifters DO NOT just steal goods, They go in under the guise of making a purchase... A Security Officer is NOT actually able to act UNTIL the purchase are made or the person attempts to leave the store without paying for an item...
      ... It may sound daft so let me explain, Until the POS has been reached, (POS = Point of Sale) the goods are still the property of the Store, They remain the stores property until they are paid for... That also means NO THEFT has happened until someone attempts to leave the POS terminal WITHOUT PAYING FOR AN ITEM!
      This is why you might see some parents walking around a Supermarket, Picking up a Banana or a French Stick, and Letting their children eat it... As long as they keep any "Barcodes" or Labels and scan them at the POS Terminal, There is NO THEFT! They have not yet left the store and showed no intent of NOT being willing to pay... Its a "Technicality" as in legal terms, Yes it is still Theft... But not at the same time..
      So there you go... That's WHY! Because UNTIL you have passed that POS terminal, You have NOT formerly committed any crime! Once you reach that point, paid and go to leave... If someone suspects you may have NOT paid for something - they do have a right to detain and search!
      You have to be attempting to leave... They cant stop you before then!

    They have no automatic right to search anyone, trolley, or basket, permission is required to form consent. There has to be reasonable suspicion of theft. She was upset about being recorded because she was aware that her conduct with the customer was beyond reasonable enquiry, if this had been a fellow employee, she would be reported for bullying. The security guard failed to identify himself therefore cannot engage with the customer further. The customer was well within their rights to film this encounter, as it was obvious the Tesco employee would have lied given she knew her conduct was outside of the law.

      @@tangomoggynoengi8518That is incorrect. The police can arrest you if they suspect you are *about to* commit the offence, while a member of the public can only do so if you are *in the process* of committing said crime. Reasonable grounds for suspicion is all that is needed. Watch his other video on the topic.

    I would have thought that if someone had bought and lawfully paid for the goods in their trolly or shopping bags they would be the legal owners and should therefore have the right to refuse to allow any interference from a third party.

      Its not that simple... Do you think Shoplifters just go in and steal stuff and NOT buy anything? Most Professional Shoplifters commit their crimes while purchasing other items... It provides a "Legitimate Cover Story"...
      ... So if we did not allow for searches after purchase, Shoplifting cases would RISE DRAMATICALLY!
      Now, If the last scenario is called in... In most cases, Tesco is a great example actually - There is Security at teh front of teh store and they RECORD you entering, so they know what you had on entry! It is not normally an issue... I have not watched the full video yet, but under normal circumstances - Tesco staff will only check the Trolley in use, Not your personal Bags UNLESS there is a Genuine Reason to suspect theft!
      That's also the teachings of the SIA, You do NOT touch a persons personal belongings UNLESS YOU HAVE GOOD REASON TO SUPSECT ... And the Suspect CAN REFUSE, at which point the Police must be called instead!

    I think an issue that I have witnessed with these encounters is the way that the shop security deals with the whole thing. This can obviously be an embarrassing situation for the shopper, but the store security often go into these encounters like they are special forces, lol. They 'know' the shopper is guilty, they have made no mistake, and the shopper is guilty regardless. There is an arrogance about some of them (obviously I am not saying all are), but there can sometimes be an attitude problem & belief they are above the law. And who in their right mind thinks its OK to try & grab someone's phone off them in this situation!! I have also sometimes noticed how their demeanour changes regarding who they are stopping. If it is a big, strong guy, then they act very differently than if it is a smaller, more vulnerable person lol. Typical uniform power play lol.
