@C7RKY@paullewismoney Were you refused service? IMO - usually they only want details when you bring back a refund...1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@MatSilk@paullewismoney The woman said the till software wouldn't let her sell the item to me, if I didn't provide my details. I refused.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@MatSilk@paullewismoney It was a Carephone Warehouse franchise, within a branch of PC World. I was gobsmacked by the demand tbh.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@C7RKY@paullewismoney Ah, now I’m not surprised. Telecommunications companies love a bit of customer data.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@MatSilk@paullewismoney I'm sure they do, but I wonder...are they allowed to refuse to sell items unless personal details are provided?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@C7RKY@paullewismoney If it was for a contract phone, your essentially taking a loan paid back monthly, so personal details make sense here1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@MatSilk @paullewismoney Nope. Just a sim-free handset. Straightforward purchase. Nothing I can see that gives them the right to demand info
