Some shops they ask you regardless of method on the self service tills. You can always press the No button anyway, and then its job done. Least you arent being blackmailed to do it like with the chuggers. There is usually one in the Sainsburys near the Cathedral tram stop too. To be fair thats better than what WH Smith did for years, which was try to aggressively flog you chocolate at the manned tills.

HeHasRisen Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 If you have said No on the terminal that should be the end of it. Make a complaint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's fine I suppose. I thought you were saying you press No and then they ask you again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl1 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 It is not unusual t be asked if you wish to round up a payment for charity and I do not mind as long as it is open and transparent and I am not conned into it. However this question was about chuggers and yes I do object to them and I would have thought if you complain to the store manager he will be able to move them off their property but can do nothing about it if they are on the pavement.
