@VeryHelpers your customer service is atrocious. Your customer rep hung up in my husband when he had waited patiently for twenty minutes for the call to be answered. You are charging us for a washing machine that never materialised. It’s shocking.

Really looking forward to talking about the #mentalhealth of #Comms professionals at this super conference next month. It’s taboo, we don’t talk about it enough, we need to start taking better care of ourselves. Join me 🤗🤗🤗

#Friyay feels in the office and even more so, now we know our travel on the #Colchester Park and Ride is free when we present a valid train ticket. https://t.co/fIX08Rx4ib

@AQA63336 In a world that is always on, why do you not have social media monitoring in place 24/7?

[Karen Yates @KalYates]

@AQA63336 Here’s a question for you. What governance do you have in place to make sure your texts are not inappropriate?

[Karen Yates @KalYates]

@AQA63336 I am absolutely livid. I have a significant complaint and you have no available customer service centre. A third party based in Manila is refusing to help me. Why? Got something to hide?

@cadle3 @andyallsopp It’s great. Really great. For sure.

[Karen Yates @KalYates]

@cadle3 @andyallsopp You have the ECC logo. I have a caterpillar.

[Karen Yates @KalYates]

@cadle3 @andyallsopp No comment is all I can muster. I’m so glad the ‘let’s have a competition to design a new logo’ days are behind us.

@stewarthend Ah, you’ve woken from your snoring 💤

Letting Brahms lullaby do its best on my littlest baby girl as I reflect on the fact I became a mum 11 years ago.

Get the feeling people have spent a bit more time on the #a12 than they wanted #a12snowmen

@lperry87 Loving the snowy pics being posted of my home county #Shropshire but hope it doesn’t cause too many problems for people.
