Supermarket chaos as now TESCO is hit with massive IT meltdown just hours after Sainsbury’s suffers the same
TESCO has been hit with a massive IT breakdown - just hours after Sainsbury's was swamped with similar issues.
The "Every Little Helps" grocer say the problems have forced them to cancel home deliveries.
They did not specify how many customers or which regions are affected.
A Tesco spokesperson said: “We are working to fix a technical issue which has meant we have had to cancel some online orders that were due for delivery today.

It comes just hours after Sainsbury's cancelled thousands of home deliveries and contactless payments collapsed after an overnight software update.
On Friday, McDonald's had a system crash forcing it to close some of its restaurants.
Customers were reportedly turned away from stores and some reported issues with online ordering.
Earlier a Sainsbury's spokesperson said: "We are currently experiencing a technical issue affecting some stores, our Groceries Online service and our ability to contact customers directly.
"Unfortunately, we will not be able to fulfil the vast majority of today's Groceries Online deliveries.
"We are working hard to fix the issue and apologise to our customers for the inconvenience.
"We will contact customers proactively to rebook orders as soon as we can."
