Asda, Matalan and Amazon recalls as shoppers told 'stop using them immediately'
- An Asda store in Bootle evacuated shoppers around 10am on June 7, 2025, amid bomb threat rumours sparked by a man holding wired headphones.
- Merseyside Police were called to investigate reports of suspicious behavior involving a man carrying an item, which was later identified as a charging cable, and after their inquiries, they determined that the evacuation was precautionary and based on a genuine concern.
- Separately, Asda, Amazon, and Matalan issued product recalls due to safety risks including sharp edges on baby rompers, chemical hazards in jewelry, and strangulation risks from boys’ swimwear draw cords.
- Authorities responsible for product safety have advised consumers to immediately discontinue use of the impacted items and return them for a refund, highlighting non-compliance with safety regulations and significant health hazards.
- Meanwhile, Matalan plans a phased rollout of the VisualStore commerce platform starting late summer 2025 to enhance shopping experiences across its UK stores by spring 2026.
