Sainsbury's insurance

I have, according to emails received today, taken out both home and travel insurance with Sainsbury's Bank.

They thanked me for choosing them.

Thing us, I didn't

They chose me ... to be part of their software fuck up

According to lady I spoke with 'every' Sainsbury's Bank customer has been affected by this glitch.

They are 'investigating'

Any other forumites taken out insurance policies with Sainsbury's today ?

Have they charged you for it?

Thankfully I'm not with them for banking. I'd be closing my account if I was.

No but good old HMRC have messed my tax up yet again. The joys of self-assessment.

Me neither.

I have a small loan from them, but once they have your name, you can have a whole variety of things you haven't asked for ...

It's great, you should them a try

Possibly more of an email campaign to make people remember they offer insurance with it coming up to holiday season, and not so much of a mistake.

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

I stupidly got a quote last week for my car insurance. I am sure I ticked that I don't want any other information as it's my standard practice but I'm getting a message a day. So far I don't think they've signed me up for any products but I may re-read the messages now to check.

It's not spam when you give them your permission!

Please note :

I am not complaining about spam.

I am well aware of the consequences of sharing your email address.

What I received were two seperate emails thanking me for taking out two financial (insurance) products with them.

I rang them to see whether or not this was some sort of scam.

I was told by two members of their customer services team that they were aware of the emails being sent out and that I had bought no such products from them.

They were investigating the problem.

Both advisors stated that it had affected the whole of their customer base so I can only assume that I am not the only one to have received those emails today.
