Tesco dad furious after being banned from buying son a sandwich without app

A Tesco shopper was furious after not being able to buy his son a sandwich until he downloaded an app.

The dad said he had been refused entry to a Central London Tesco to buy a sandwich for his son's packed lunch unless he signed up for a Clubcard. Taking to Twitter, the Tesco customer branded his experience as "dystopian" and said he "didn't like it at all".

Jonathan Rowson went into the shop on Tuesday night around 11pm to buy a sandwich for his son's packed lunch when an employee told him he had to download the Tesco app and sign up for the Clubcard to even enter. While the dad was struggling to sign up, in an attempt to help him, Jonathan claimed the staff member took his phone and changed the option to 'accept Clubcard' before he could refuse, reported MyLondon.
