Hi,
to be honest, I think the only reason, that someone wants to talk about a complaint, instead of discussing it in writing, it to over-run the complainant, in a conversation, that can't be documented.
So I would please prefer to deal with this in writing, like I initiated.
Best Regards,
Erik Ribsskog

Hi,
this isn't about the carrier-bags, this is about the harrassment.
I also mentioned which shops it was in the subject-line.
I've been working as a shop-manager in Norway, and I know that only old
women brings old bags to the shop.
I would sometimes sit in the check-out, and I asked everyone, 'do you want a
carrier'.
And sometimes men would reply, 'Of course I want a carrier, do you think I'm
an old woman ("gammel kjærring" in Norwegian)'.
I don't think you take my complaint seriously.
And your spelling isn't even right.
Could you please escalate this complaint, as I've overheard that I'm being
used as a 'target guy', I think this could be some mobster-activity.
I've also had more or less similar complaints against Tesco from before,
which you neighter took serious.
So I'm going to put a lawyer on you if you don't take this serious now, if I
get the oppertunity later.
My patience with you is ran out, unfortunately.
Bag for life, and poppy-bags, this isn't what I contact you about, it's the
harassment.
Is this so difficult for you to understand?
Bags for life and poppy-bags are fine.
But only as long as you also have the regular bags.
But you have made this into a discussion about bags, when it really is about
harrassment, so you just make me more annoyed really.
Is 'customer-support' something that your company don't know what means?
