Review of Aldi Einkauf GmbH & Co oHG

Yesterday I went shopping at Aldi Markt -Weinberg ...

Yesterday I went shopping at Aldi Markt -Weinberg 107, 42109 Wuppertal-. At around 11:15 am I was at the cash register and wanted to pay with an Aldi voucher for markets (not for the online shop but for the markets). My husband had printed out the voucher on the printer, just like you can do in all other shops. The cashier was able to scan the voucher using the barcode and, according to her own statement, could also see that there was a balance of 20 euros on it. But she had problems finally redeeming the voucher. I also have to say the cashier tried and was friendly. She then brought in another lady, and two women came straight away. Probably through superiors or something. They presented me and my two children together at the checkout as a cheat, so to speak with the words: Everyone can print and copy such a voucher and come back again and again. "
I was shocked at the moment because the other customers were staring at us too. With a properly paid and valid voucher, we were portrayed as a fraudster just because the staff was not able to redeem the voucher. And the technical ignorance of how a voucher works comes on top of that. Ultimately, the barcode is crucial. When this is scanned and redeemed, I can show the voucher as often as I want, then there would be a credit of 0 euros. I'm sorry to put it like that, but you have to have a very limited understanding if you think you could copy such a voucher as often as you want and redeem it again and again. After all, this is not a food stamp but a voucher with a barcode and serial number.
Now that Aldi has portrayed me and my children in public at the cash register as fraudsters, I don't need to go shopping anymore.
And just for information, the thing is a gift certificate, that's what it's printed on. Originally I wanted to give it to my aunt, but then decided on a more personal gift. Imagine if we had given away the Aldi gift voucher and that would have happened to our aunt. How would we be then !! ?? Great job done Aldi (irony off) !!!
