Letter of complaint Sent:
To whom it may concern
I was in the ************ Poundland today Attempting to purchace 3 items of Tobbaconalia. being *** years of age this should not be a problame for me especialy as I have valid ID. As I got to the check out I was asked by the woman if i was 21 in wich I replied "No im ***********" only to be told she could not sell me the " Pack of 10 bullbrand Rolling Papers, A Pack of three boxes ( bullbrand) Medium sized filters And a bag of 180 Menthol filters( Bull brand)"

If there is a 21 Policy in Poundland Why so? The Legal age of smoking in England is 18 ( recently changed from 16) If there is no 21 policy I am Very upset that I was not perrntitled to purchase said items. I would appreciate a Reply to this letter of complaint As im unhappy with the service I recieved as a paying and loyal coustomer.

For the purposes of preserving my view on smoking without forcing it down the throats of all the smokers here, I think I'll stay very far away from this topic.

*runs*

Asda has recently decided to not sell alcohol to anyone looking under the age of 25, unless they have I.D to prove they are over 18.

Poundland may have a similar policy, but perhaps the woman had it confused?

Smoking age raised to 18? That's a good thing. :) Also explains the increase in the little sods asking adults to buy them some fags.

i meani under stand the '' if they dont look over 21" cause i have to do it in my job but you have to be 100% clued up on what ur doing to have the job, besides I wasnt buying tobbacco!

Age going up was probably a good thing yes ive been asked uber many times to fecth some one fags allways reply no if your gonna smoke under age get it ur self

Ill keep you posted if i get a reply fro this im just a bit miffed about the whole situation

Fair nough

Its still 18, poundland woman probabl;y confused or a sepearate policy in poundland shops.
Also, thered have been as much if not more of a keruffle as there was when it went up to 18 if it had gone to 21.
Your newsagent will still sell youtobacco provided you have i.d saying you're 18:)

Check forspelling mistakes in letter, btw
