Instead of a deposit, a Lidl customer receives a piece of paper that hits her hard. She has to recover from that first.

  • A Lidl-Customer just wanted to return her bottles to the deposit machine – but then something unusual happens
  • Instead of a deposit, the deposit machine gives the customer a very unusual message.
  • The customer processes her “rejection” on Twitter with humor.

Kassel – That belongs in everyday matters Deposit to the normally less spectacular tasks. Only when the device is full or broken – or simply refuses to accept this one bottle, even though you have just thrown in four exactly the same models – is there a bit of variety.

But even then it remains Deposit return a deeply unspectacular experience. A Lidl customer Instead, I was allowed to have a completely new experience – and got from one Deposit machines a basket.

Instead of a normal deposit: general rejection

Instead of a standard Pfandbons she only received a brief announcement from the device. Two words that can lead to bitter rejection: General rejection. And that twice in different colors so that it cannot be overlooked.

This is probably just an error message. A bottle or can may have been dated Vending machines not accepted. Or the device is broken and has some kind of technical defect. The customer refers to this “general rejection”, of course, with a twinkle in his eye – and thus contributes Twitter for laughs.

Common deposit machine at Lidl – “I had to laugh so much!”

“I have never got such a tough basket like today from Deposit machines at Lidl … Ouch, “she writes on the short message service Twitter. She has to cope with that now, and wants to “watch with ice on the couch and sad love films”. But she takes that basket with humor. “I had to laugh so much!” She continues.

Another Twitter user has had a similar experience. “The pain is really deep :(” he writes ironically. “Stay strong! You can get over this!” (In German: “Stay strong! You can get over this”), he encourages her. We can only hope that the ice cream and the love movies of the Lidl customer actually help over the pain.
