Tried to claim compensation for delayed (3.5 hours) @Ryanair flight FR3843 REU-STN yesterday. Claim rejected stating ATC delays however announcement yesterday clearly stated spillage in the hold. Perhaps Ryanair should update in case someone accuses them of being dishonest

The duck is disproportionately better. 🤷‍♂️

Wagamama charge £9.50 for this paltry portion. I’m Scottish and obviously a bit tight but this is a piss take.

@anthonyabrown @1874t @IanW1874 The Devlin point is a good one. Is this now the precedent? Devlin captain for a year then off for free?

[Martin @dickerboy]

@anthonyabrown The optics are terrible. This is our club captain going to one of our biggest rivals for free. Hardly big club mentality. Did Shankland have options last summer? Did the club have zero bargaining power because this looks weak.

@GrahamSpiers In context, squad approx market values:
1. Celtic FC: €144.80 million
2. Rangers FC: €121.45 million
3. Heart of Midlothian (Hearts): €27.85 million

Two weeks of questionable referee decisions but yes, he’s a genius. I don’t know how he has done it 🤷‍♂️

@Vinny5567 @The_Tman10 Never scoring from there? Against Kasper? 😂😂😂

Trying to buy Radiohead tickets on @AXS_UK is a shambles. This is an industry ripe for disruption. The tech available is better than the solutions currently being offered.

@Vitality_UK @craigmmorq4 And asking adults to search for a virtual dog every week is frankly puerile.

@santanderukhelp I walked out after 1 hour. Advised to contact private banking by phone?!?!

[Martin @dickerboy]

Just spent an hour in @santanderuk branch trying to open a fixed rate bond for my mum (POA). Leaving empty handed. This bank cannot possibly survive when so many challengers are so much better.

[Martin @dickerboy]

@Armo @TicketmasterUK Is this still available?

[Martin @dickerboy]

5 weeks and counting for @santanderuk to accept my Power of Attorney application. Rejected my first attempt with no explanation and now appear to have lost my resubmitted paperwork. They’ve promised to get back to me in 5 days. Clowns.

@mikeyks No you didn’t! 😂

@TohottoTrott @Megannn6 @easyJet Contact the Civil Aviation Authority. I had the same issue with Norwegian and got a payout 6 months later. Don’t give up!

[Martin @dickerboy]

@santanderukhelp That’s what the scammers say too.

[Martin @dickerboy]

When will banks stop the practice of calling customers asking for personal details? @santanderuk ?
Is there any UK bank that doesn’t do this?
