So we're out, out!
Uber into town, & on the marina. Still coat weather here despite the sun! π₯Ά
Sharon's had to double up on the hosiery, tights, then fishnets for the extra insulation! π‘π€ͺ
My Wife looks great π
Cheers πΊπ»πΈπΎπ₯
My parents hate Trump, because the rolling news tells them daily what an awful man he is.
We don't have a TV licence, so we can't watch any live news.
We were in a hotel bar a couple of weeks ago, and BBC News 24 was on, with a hit piece about Trumps social media posts. I've never seen anything so skewed.
For 6 months Aer Lingus continued to rebuke our claim for compensation for deboarding, citing that we were not eligible. Despite recorded letters to their head office, multiple emails, they kept replying with the exact same response.
@abzpaul found us an email address for the CEO earlier today.
I emailed at midday.
This just arrived.
A total about turn!
Thanks Paul, it worked, I'm shocked. We were always eligible for compensation, but it was getting disheartening.
Great result.
I was saying/tweeting earlier that we've had compensation off BA, Easyjet, and Canadian airline Transat... all easily dealt with, and I'd fly with them all again.
Aer Lingus... not a chance, I wouldn't fly with them for free in economy.
And I know it's the same parent company as BA, but they're poles apart in quality and experiences.
@canido_steve@abzpaul Amazingly quick! I told the kids in the airport that we weredue compensation as they sat waiting for the next flight, and that we would treat them. Finally we can :-)
@abzpaul@CEOemail It genuinely is Paul.
Really appreciate your direction on this one, and indeed others in the past, the likes of our fight with eBay.
If we're ever up in Aberdeenlandshire, we'll buy you a pint!
During the quotation stage with Boxt, they were so good at replying, often within the hour.
Now we've paid an Β£1800 deposit towards our solar/powerwall, it's all gone quiet.
We've provided requested photos of the house, but heard nothing since.
Even the helpful quote man isn't replying to my emails π
@great_twit Don't believe I've given them permission per se, but I've had an email from Northern Powergrid about an application, which presumably they've put in.
Only gone with Boxt because of the interest free deal.
I'm sure there are cheaper out there.
@abzpaul Glad it worked for you.
Last try before I email everything through to the IAA.
Crazy the lengths you have to go to.
We've had payments from Easyjet, BA, & Air Transat.
Never a battle like this.
Made it home without charging.
Sat behind lorries.
Home 11 minutes later than if we'd done 70mph, but we'd have burned up 26 minutes to do 5 minutes charging on a supercharger, so I'm happy with that.
And now cheap electric to charge the car, put on the home AC, & get some washing done!
@Dannyspeed165 Even a "it's not me you need to contact" from the quote man would be the polite thing, but I'm just getting ignored π
If I said I wanted another three Powerwalls, he'd be straight back to me! π
