Date published: 31 October 2016


Asda has apologised to customers after a problem with its card machines caused chaos at the tills.

Stores across the country, including Rochdale, were affected yesterday when its card readers broke down.

Long queues built up as people were asked to use cash, with trollies and baskets dumped in the aisles and ATM machines outside running out of money.
