The Commerce Commission has filed criminal charges against Woolworths NZ for alleged inaccurate pricing and misleading specials that may have breached the Fair Trading Act.

The commission filed the charges against Woolworths in the Auckland District Court.

It indicated in December last year that it would be filing separate criminal charges against Woolworths and two Pak'nSave supermarkets.

At that time, the commission said there were ongoing issues with pricing in the supermarket sector and the operators may have breached the Fair Trading Act.

Very good, but be warned it can occassionally generate codes for cards that haven't been activated yet. It freaks out the machines and therefore summons a person. Speaking from experience

I did not realise it summoned a person!

Will have to remember to bring actual cards to use as decoys next time.
