Aldi and other continental retailers don't have the staff handle the card at all - that is just a ridiculous British/Irish legacy. You put the card in the EMV unit yourself.
However, that makes it 100% your fault if you forget it - can't blame staff.

Silly old bat
I left my card in the machine at BHS in Churchill Square a few months ago. I realised when I got home, rang them, & they had already locked it up in their safe.
I went back the following day to collect it and no harm done. It can easily happen.

I can understand the shredding to stop fraud etc but what pissed me of was the speed in which it was done, if it was secure in the store safe why shred it after less than 1 day?
but I can now see both sides of the argument.

Everything wrong with Aldi food. We've been trying the Lewes store recently and at first all seemed well but the fruit and veg has been going off incredibly quickly. No shelf life at all. Sub-standard.

Well I'd hate to leave my car in his car park overnight.

I'm sure they would have the right to clamp it or have it removed.
Or crush it by the sounds of this prick running the store.
I'd get a punch in the face if I used the term wifey

I don't think so. The reason he shredded the card is to prevent fraud.
Crushing someone's car (because they forgot it) cannot be justified!

I feel that I need to try this now, if only to check what reaction I recieve. A poll might be interesting!

I cancel cards as soon as I miss them just in case - even though a couple of times I have found them an hour later, which by then was too late.
I wouldn't have relied on just getting it back as who knows who has copied the details for on-line and phone purchases. If somebody has all the details including the security number on the back, you are stuffed if the card is still live.
Why the keenest to cancel cards so quickly?
There no good to anyone without the pin
Loads of people have had my details, with the security number - I give it to them when making purchases.

Sorry but that's wrong - you could have a spending spree online without ever needing your pin!
