Different shop branch on bank statement

koolpc · 3 May 2023 at 22:44

I often shop at Tesco and lots of times the actual address i shopped at is different on my bank statement. Sometimes the correct address is shown and other times its at a branch nearby that i havent shopped in!

Same goes for Greggs too.

Anyone else notice this on their statements?

The amounts tally with what i have spent. Its just that the branch on occasions is wrong.

I get this loads too, I suspect it's a tax loophole or something. It's never bothered me though.

I see.

I was curious and a little worried to be honest.

Thing is, on many occasions it will show the correct shop while at other times it doesnt?

Possibly the data just got mixed up somewhere pulling the wrong merchant store for the account.

Yea, strange though as the branches in question are approx 5 miles apart.

I have queried it with my bank....

Bank replied saying its to do with the shops and nothing to worry about as long as i made the purchases...
