@costcocanada I need a copy of my receipt. your app doesn’t go back far enough and you only emailed me an order summary. How do I get this?

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@costcocanada my 4yo @LGCanada fridge isn’t working. Troubleshooting indicates a compressor issue (lights on in fridge, sparks when plugging it in, indicating power draw, etc). What do I do? I don’t have a backup and it’s (finally) not cold enough to just put stuff outside

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

In a shocking turn of events: the freezer works! It’s an LG 9005251. I don’t see any ice build up but will try a manual full defrost tomorrow when I can move my stuff to someone else’s freezer. Fingers crossed!

I have an elderly dog whose meds need refrigeration and a work schedule that makes it hard to deal with this over the phone. I’m also just generally in the dumps right now so my capacity to deal w this w/o crying is very low. Please help

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@SaskTelSupport any known outages (infinet) in Old Lakeview?

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@AmazonHelp I’ll take screenshots next time so we can work on it together but any idea why it would have happened despite me not agreeing to “fewer packages”? Waiting 20 days because of 1 thing when everything else was 1-2 days seems excessive.

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@AmazonHelp despite not selecting the “fewer packages” delivery option, my orders keep getting combined. Not a big deal when it’s a day or two but I was stuck waiting over TWENTY days because of 1 item when the other 6 were next day (or 2) delivery.

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

Nothing makes me as old or ugly than being the only person in @Sephora & having all SIX (that I could see) staff ignore me. I dread coming here. Every single time is a blow to my self-esteem. If you weren’t the sole retailer for a very niche product I would never shop with you

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@TD_Canada Hita! Very excited about my new @Aeroplan visa but… it has both my (full) middle name and my middle initial on it. Can we get that fixed/reissued? Dm me :)

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

Shout out to Gigi/Vance and Ash for helping me get the right flight, the right seats and the right price. And to @AirCanada in general for being so responsive via this app. Means a lot to me, a hearing-impaired person who would rather not be on hold for hours. Thank you!

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

Seems like all my tweets (or whatever the kids call them these days) are @AirCanada related. So let’s keep the trend: they often get a bad rap (from me, included) but they are sometimes amazing (hottake given the current labor dispute, I know. Sorry!) (cont.)…

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@AirCanada I’m having a very specific issue when trying to book a flight. Can I DM you? (You’re always very helpful and responsive on “the Twitter)

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@SaskPower extremely loud BOOM and now no power on Old Lakeview. Assuming/hoping it’s not just my house?! 😬

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@SaskTelSupport hiya! Any known outages near Parliment Place right now?

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@SaskPower no power in Old Lakeview for 30mind or so. I don’t see anything posted, is it just me?

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

HUGE thank you to @AirCanada who got me on a flight, via standby, via Twitter. Crisis averted! This time.

[Air Canada @AirCanada]

@LastGrlStanding Hi Kristel, we regret hearing that your travel plans have been disrupted. Please see our reply to your DM. /Max

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@AirCanada need immediate help
Please. My 11:25am flight from YQR to YYZ was cancelled (why does this happen ALL the time). instead of moving me to the 14:25 or 19:25 flights you’ve put me on a flight to VANCOUVER and then to Toronto?! Help me get on one of the other flights

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@AirCanada my flight from YQR to YYZ tomorrow (Monday) morning was (understandably) cancelled due to weather. It got rebooked to Tuesday night, which isn’t going to work as I have to be in YYZ for a 9am meeting Tuesday morning. Help?!

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@AirCanada And we have to wait for that. If these engines don’t start up again… I want a voucher. A big one. And not for food, for travel. Get it together, man

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

Hey @AirCanada just a thought: if you know it’s going to be -30 why wouldn’t you make an effort to keep your plane engines warm? 6 flights left YQR this morning without issue (west jet, sunwing) but here I am, 5 hours delayed while you STILL try to get the engine running…

[Kristel @LastGrlStanding]

@AirCanada And to top it off, a bunch of us almost missed the (re)boarding because you didn’t announce it o er the PA system, only at the gate? It’s a small airport and it’s been 3 hours, people wander. And now that we’re back on board… we need more of the gas we never got to use? Lol
