Tesco shoppers will have to start paying more for home delivery, as the supermarket scraps its cheaper slots.

Customers will soon have to pay up to £2.50 extra for their food to be delivered, following a shake-up of the company’s online shopping fees.

How much will I have to pay?

Currently, Tesco charges shoppers between £2 and £7 for home delivery, depending on the time of day you choose. However, from August, the supermarket will change its prices to a fixed fee of £4.50 on all of its delivery slots.

Shoppers who usually opt for the cheapest slots, at just £2 each, will be required to pay out an extra £2.50 for their delivery.

But the changes also mean that those who normally selected the prime slots, priced at £7, will make a saving of £3.50 when the new fixed cost comes into effect next month.

The supermarket has also stopped selling its cheap midweek Delivery Saver passes, meaning customers can now only buy the more expensive anytime delivery pass, which is priced at £7.99 per month, for six months.
