Supersol
Does anyone have an e-mail address for Supersol? I have searched on supersol.es and hipersol and all kinds of other variations.
Today in the Supersol in Nerja, where I have shopped every week for 4 years, I was told that they will not accept a Notorised copy of my passport as i.d. Has anyone else had this problem? I want to write to the Head Office but cannot find a website.
I wonder is this a fallout from the change in the necessity for residencia.

I have a Spanish 'old style' pink card driving licence with photo - would that be acceptabe?
I am begining to wonder why I queued and paid money for a notorised copy that would be "acceptable in place of the original" only to be told that Supersol do not recognise this. BUT - they have accepted it for the last 10 months without query. What I want to do is ask Supersol Head Office why they have changed the rules. So I am trying to find a website.

We have had our passport unformation page [the page with all your details and photograph] reduced and laminated to credit card size and Supersol accept this. Damned good idea as it saves you carrying your passport everywhere. It cost us 6E and took about 30 minutes. Got it done in Alhaurin el Grande.

First time I had my reduced and shrink wrapped passport refused was in 2003 in El Campo in La Canada, they were one of the first retailers to clamp down on this sort of ID, have to say thought it was a good thing as you say they could easily be forged and I have been well and truly on the receiving end of forged paperwork
Regarding ID....After having my passport/cards/wallet stolen in Leroy Merlin 2005 I decided to make my own ID saying "Identification and assurance cards for :-" Laminated it and it Looks OK and I have been queried 3 times in the last 3 years .....but always let through " I even used it at my bank.......it has NIF and address and a photo....... Ignorance is bliss and most checkouts in Spain are Muchas Tranquilo"..
Well whoop di doo. How very sad. And how **** is that attiitude. It is surely THE safest way to carry incontrovertible evidence of ID and IMHO anyone who carries their 'original' passport as a matter of course wants their head testing.Photocopying and reducing a passport and using it as an ID can be considered forgery and is a criminal offence.
I have an easy answer to this.....(and have carried the very same for the last four years)..if a store doesn't want to accept this as ID then...wait for it....I don't want to give them my money -- or credit, as the case may be.
In actual fact, I have found that a photo driving licence is ample in any supermarket (including Supersol) and the laminated cc-sized passport page sufficient for most contracts (including Vodafone).

sorry tjtops.........what was the sad attitude......are we going back a few blogs or directing that comment locally ...
I think that the requirements of carrying all vehicle documents in the car a stupid travisty and will cause more problems for the authorities and the owners (knowing the normal paper bagging and faxing of the Spanish legislation)....and don't bang on about "oh you shouldn't be here"crap because I love it ...........3 basura collections a week.....30% less cost of living....sun ....well I know where i'm best off... and Journalists who disappear if to critical Ha Ha ...

ermm.....am I missing something here Yorkie??? I have absolutely no idea what you are going on about...!!!!
My comment about how sad, etc, was directed (if you look at the source of the quote) at the fact that taking sensible precautions to provide a legitimate form of ID is apparently against the law ....the rest of your post....well maybe you could explain????
