warning on priority slots, cancelling food boxes

worried33

I cancelled my food boxes a few weeks ago as I didnt really need them, the letter promised that priority slots would not be cancelled at supermarkets.

In the last 2 weeks I have lost my priority slots at iceland and ASDA, so this is a warning, it seems cancelling the food boxes will also cancel your priority slots at supermarkets.

So I am now back at been unable to book slots.

I did an online order with Iceland on friday night and they had slots avaliable every day, neighbours seem to be getting an Asda delivery every 2 weeks no problems.

My daughter had a tesco delivery a few days ago and she said there was plently of delivery slots. She tries to avoid the shops as and when possible and has done since lockdown began.

I've found plenty of slots at Sainsburys now.  Tesco is still booked up a week away though!  So I guess it depends on the individual stores & areas.

Tesco is ok here, last couple of weeks I ordered on Saturday and it was delivered on Monday or Tuesday.

Shielding is based on the artificial concept of vulnerability which doesn’t really exist in law but has become much used as a useful distraction away from empowering European legislation. Those of you who would count as disabled under EA 10 may want to contact the likes if Fry law or PLP or Leigh Day or similar to look at a good old fashioned disability discrimination claim. Your slots can be argued as a reasonable adjustment depending on the facts of your case and let’s not forget the HRA either.
