When @virginmedia say they’ll put you though to a manager right away….

Shout out to the @LDMdirect Norwood Branch. Extremely friendly and helpful following my paint spilling incident this morning. Great people

This confirmation from @BTCare @bt_uk looks simple enough right? WRONG! The date & time quoted (twice) are incorrect. It took a mere 30 mins on phone to resolve: these are ‘provisional’ dates. The engineers will *probably* turn up on the right date. WTAF. Hard to express my 😡

Be wary of @uber. They just took £38 from my bank account for a booking they never accepted and therefore a trip I never made (which they admit). To add insult to injury they tried to blame my bank and then hung up on me when I objected. One for @TfL I think!

Dang, what’s that technical banking term for @PayPal’s payment processing…oh yes “theft”

I asked @Airbnb_uk why it takes 7 business days to get paid (unless you use PayPal, in which case it’s 1 day). They said they have no control over payment timescales. Does anyone believe them?

Nice little map to show how far the hotel is from where @bookingcom said it was

Another @dulwichparagon Wally Gimber trophy done. Well done everyone. vimeo.com/587955271

Mayor of London: Reopen Crystal Palace National Sports Centre 50 metre pool and diving pool - Sign the Petition! chng.it/JwyL8Qn2 via @UKChange

You’d think @Apple could get something as basic as this right

My advice avoid @LeFrenchMobile like the plague. 3 sims cards that have never worked, atrocious customer service and now refusing to refund credit

After many years of frustration I have concluded @Flickr is the worst. Latest email boasts no more Yahoo login. Then the link takes you straight to Yahoo login! Which is experiencing “a temporary problem”.

Bloody @Eurosport_UK. They fuck their live coverage timings up, so your recording finishes prematurely, then they expect you to pay to watch what you’ve missed on @EurosportPlayer

Hey @GarminEdge why won’t my device synch with my iPhone and what does this red exclamation mark mean?

I hate myself every time I give in to my insanely optimistic, but inevitably futile, urge to see if the WiFi on @VirginTrains is working. Can I get treated? Help me please!
