For goodness sake Tesco, sort your '[insert generic name] Pay' out.

Tesco must be one of the only places left who still have a limit on payments by Google/Apple Pay.

My bill came to £100.04 so just over their crazily arbitrary £100 limit for Google/Apple Pay.

/end rant.

i'd have made them take summat out of the shopping to get it under the 100 notes!

It's becoming normal for a family shop to total over £100 now too with the state of the economy

I bet that knocked the stuffing out of your turkey at the checkout.

Not sure on the UK position but here and in Oz the transaction limits that apply to Google Pay are the same as your physical card, they're not at retailer discretion.

They want you to use Tesco Pay...

I ditched Tesco for Asda.

Even though I was a weekly online customer of Tesco's for 13 years from 2007-2020, they never offered me a delivery slot during the lockdowns. However, as a new customer of Asda (never used them before), they offered me a slot every week without fail. So yes there is no such thing as customer loyalty i.e. 13 years vs 0 years, but I have stuck with Asda as of December 2022 (and just renewed my yearly delivery contract) out of principle.

Huh using Google wallet has a limit at teaco? That daft. I don't really shop there and my food bill has never been that high nut I'd just get them to split it then. I don't even carry a debit cars anore and exclusively use Google wallet.

Google wallet has zero limit itself unless a retailer sets one up. I've paid £1400+ out in transaction on furniture in past with it.

I’ve used Apple Pay at Tesco for transactions over £100. Must be a weird local issue.

I think they've kept it at £100 because that's the current lunch meal deal price

 

[ShadowMan]

And yet I paid £158 on Apple Pay this weekend on a Scan and Shop self service at Tesco. Never had a problem with any supermarket.

It states on the card machine that contactless is limited to £100. I don't think it matters whether it's card or card via apple pay.

Different stores will have different limits i'm sure, and different card machines.

That would be very odd if individual stores of Tesco had different limits.

They don't, it's company policy.

Nah, i would expect Luton stores to have £10 limit

Don't need a limit if you steal everything...

My Tesco Local has a £50 limit. So might just be shop size?

I know that the large sainsburys near me has a limit of 100 by contactless card but it's higher than that if you use a pay app. Maybe tesco is different.
