This is the reason I don’t take a decent bike into town

Oh dear, sorry. At least with it being Sainsbury's they should do the decent thing.

 

[annedonnelly]

And at least someone was good enough to leave a note.

Oh so that's way the head of Sainsbury's said he was quitting this morning.

Sainsbury's lorry took out a parked car here a month ago,back end a right off.this was in the Sainsbury's local car park in a disabled bay

 

[slowmotion]

The driver did the decent thing. Almost everybody else wouldn't have.
All credit to him.

But was it the driver? Looks to me as if it might have been written by a helpful witness due to the lack of info. A driver would have left his details plus it's written in the third person.

I have a gut feeling Sainsbury's will reject it without;

Witness statement and details or, CCTV.

It's well written on A4 paper and enclosed in an office folder and taped on with parcel tape so it looks like it was written by shop management to me. They aren't the kinds of things a motorist usually carries and they would have written on their bonnet or a knee or something wonky using a bit of torn-off envelope or something.

You might be right. I've got the same gut feeling.

I guess if it comes to that point, the only thing you could do is boycott them for the rest of your life and also shame/damage them on social media.

I don't understand this... I'm presuming it wasn't locked in the rack when it got mangled? Otherwise how come nobody else's got damaged?

Somebody's used box tape to tie that message to the rack so my guess is that someone in the loading bay has written the message.

Good luck with the replacement, I sincerely hope they hold their hands up and reimburse you with no quibbles, but I worry that they won't. Tracking down the person who wrote the note would help, as they obviously witnessed it.

The not damaged bikes were parked there AFTER the incident

 

[Gunk]

It’s not my bike, mine is locked securely inside when I commute. I just saw this last night and I thought it was interesting

Just as an aside, if it was the delivery to store truck, they are subcontracted to third party transport companies, if the it’s the home delivery van they belong to sainsburys

A claim for 150,000 Nectar points me thinks.
