@bp_UK Have sent an email to the BP email as requested, let's see the turnaround for a response and the desire to address the issue.

[Ian Trimnell @IanTrimnell]

@BP_plc, thank you for the £100 parking charge for overstaying a time limit at your Sutton forecourt. Sorry for also purchasing fuel, vacuum and the jet wash. Obviously I missed the parking charge for the pleasure of doing so. Disgusting behaviour, you've lost my future custom!

[Ian Trimnell @IanTrimnell]

@bp_UK Thanks for the response. I'll reach out as suggested.

For those following, I will update this feed following the response and how it is resolved.

[Ian Trimnell @IanTrimnell]

...Any help and guidance appreciated.

@HMRCcustomers I waited on the phone to the call center yesterday and also today for a hour and then got kicked off without anyone answering. I have a letter saying I need to do a self-assessment although your online check suggested I didn't need to i.e. contradicting, I'm stuck!

[Ian Trimnell @IanTrimnell]

...I can't submit a SA just in case as I don't have a code to unlock access to it, which btw is a weird prerequisite, so will have wait a week for that to arrived via post (why not a validated email address?). Can't talk to anyone for advice as no answer, so what now, a penaltly?

[Ian Trimnell @IanTrimnell]

Lol, they palmed me off and suggested I should make a claim. No sense of responsibility or ownership of the problem. 😒

@RoyalMailHelp it's now been one week that Royal Mail have been ignoring my DMs on X, it's suddenly becomr radio silence, is this normal practice when someone is questioning why their tracked 48hr parcel is showing as 15 days overdue and still undelivered?

We’re trying to get as many followers as Rishi Sunak so we can show the government just how many people are prepared to fight for the NHS and its staff.

Please can you help by following us and retweeting this?

[Martin Lewis @MartinSLewis]

It's
6yrs since we started seeing mass proliferation of scam ads
5yrs since I sued Facebook.
4yrs since they settled (for £3m to charity).
4yrs since the online harms white paper (still not law)
18mth since they agreed to inc scams in it.
1 day since first deep fake scam ad I've seen

Yet we've still
NO proper laws
NO proper regulation
NO proper fines for big tech who get paid to publish these criminal ads
NO mention of when things will improve
NO sign of the promised online advertising programme to help

It isn't good enough. Vulnerable people are being scammed, lifes are being ruined, and people are totally unprotected.

Wow. If only we had more entrepreneurs like @RicherSounds Julian Richer

He’s sent an email to 1.2 million customers saying this

“I am just hoping that whoever runs the country has integrity, is good at balancing the books and has a genuine social conscience - someone who acknowledges the unfairness of growing inequality as well as the danger this poses to social cohesion and happiness. I would also love our leader/s to please sort the disgraceful state of housing for far too many non-homeowners, as well as the NHS’s and the criminal justice system’s problems while they are at it… And when I say ’sort’ I obviously mean ‘invest as necessary’, including paying the real living wage as a minimum to allow working people to live decently, and banning evil zero-hour contracts when imposed on workers against their will. And don’t get me started on the water monopolies…”

Thank you for speaking out

@youtubemusic Why can't the youtube music app (Android) remain synced with playout sent over chromecast, spotify can, so it's certainly possible?

[Neil Garratt AM @NeilGarratt]

I was shocked to read in the Telegraph that not only have 66% voted against Sadiq Khan’s ULEZ expansion in the official consultation, but there is evidence that some opposition votes were improperly excluded. He has no choice - scrap the ULEZ expansion now #TheULEZScandal

@Sainsburys_Bank based on past comms, you've been looking into adding your credit card on to Apple Pay since 2017, five years later it's still not available, is it going to happen? Otherwise I'll need to move to a flexible cc provider as I need BOTH Apple and Google pay support

[Ian Trimnell @IanTrimnell]

Hey @TriaxAS , I can't find any support docs on your site for an older product of yours, a TMP 5x32 Multi-switch Part No: 305378, could you send/message me a download link please? Thanks

[Ian Trimnell @IanTrimnell]

@DraytonHome Intrigued on how, but decent customer savings for those with whole home coverage 👍

[Home Assistant @home_assistant]

Home Assistant Core 2021.6 😎

https://t.co/uS7mDM2yOo

A release full of nice little things! Dual-mode support for themes, push updates for Hue, control the polling interval of any integration and tons of UI tweaks!

[Ian Trimnell @IanTrimnell]

@BcardBusiness Wow, this app needs work...
#1 - why not use the perfectly good credentials I have for online banking?
#2 - A simple message in the log in page to refer to emailed credentials would have helped.
#3 - Emailing a temporary password, really?
#4 - No paste function, painful!!

[Home Assistant @home_assistant]

Last Wednesday we launched opt-in analytics. Already 13k people have opted in, have you?

We will use this data to help convince manufacturers to take local APIs seriously.

Aggregated data publicly available @ https://t.co/7Ls01HScRj

@SpotifyCares And don't even get me started on the incompatibility with roaming across @Ubiquiti 's multi-access point home wifi network.

[Ian Trimnell @IanTrimnell]

Hey @Spotify @SpotifyUK why don't you have the ability to pin playlists in your apps and web app? ...makes drag and drop of tracks into my playlists much easier in the web app too😉
