..got into bed super early. Thought I'd give the remainder of Qatar v Switzerland the trial run.
Can someone please explain this and how I fix it ASAP!?

@STVEdinburgh @stvplayeruk @ITVX
So. As I'm sure we're all aware. There's this football game on in the early hours.
Figured I'd at least get all comfy in bed and watch this on my laptop. Rarely do I ever watch live tv or catchup this way. But this is an exception...

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

@O2 Needless to say. At the next contract renewal period, I will not be renewing either of the 3 contracts with O2.
The small cost saving from being a Virgin Media customer is not worth the additional hassle and frustration.

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

Phoning @O2 cust serv has to be, without doubt THE most frustrating interaction I have ever experienced in decades. It's obvious they're reading from a script + have 'boxes to check' but do not listen to a single word. Changing tariff is like applying for a bank loan of 50k. 👎

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

@O2 Bottom line is. I NEED to make phone calls for elderly relatives. I am always on speakerphone with them. But after they have verified who they are, they should be asked if I can speak on their behalf. They have trouble hearing and communicating. But no. They need to answer. Crazy

Finally got around to listening to the wonderful @FreyaRidings new album #motherofpearl
Had a lovely afternoon with it on repeat on Youtube while building Lego at my desk.
Was not a hard decision to purchase on iTunes just now and add to collection. Brilliant! 🤗💜

@walls what in the world have you done to feast ice cream lollies?
been buying + enjoying them for decades. not any more.
loved the choc ice cream + the hard chocolate inside. white choc ice cream tastes like ice and gooey caramel inside is disgusting #ruined #feast

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!??
Test drove Mazda Furai Horizon Festival playlist car. Had 10sec to spare at the end. Only to learn you had to turn the steering wheel left and park up about 2 feet. @ForzaHorizon Totally threw it away. #unimpressed #onechanceonly #forza6 #enoughforzatoday

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

Been working my way through #charliebinghams meals from my local @sainsburys. Think I've tried 4 or 5 by now. There's always usually 1 or 2 on offer for £8 or less. Always end up going back to the lasagne or veggie lasagne. Delicious. 10/10. Nom. 🍛🍲

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

...While we're on the subject of car valuations. "..an extra £500 when you part exchange" 🤣 Yeah, ok. Contacted 5 main dealerships & 2 independent so far. All have been more (by a margin) than your "extra". @ArnoldClark It's almost as bad as Tesco clubcard "deals". No thanks. 👎

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

@webuyanycar "your valuation may have got an upgrade". No. It went the opposite way. So, if I ignored it 1st time around you can probably guess what action will be taken this time. Thanks, but no thanks. "But hurry, your valuation won't last forever". No, it'll keep going down 👎

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

Tried 2 different browsers also. So, I'm convinced it's not me.
Therefore, nobody will be in to recieve tomorrow. (Blame #AmazonUK) and there is nothing i can do about it. Great 💩✊️

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

@RoyalMail
Received email. A small package is being delivered tomorrow. (Still stating Friday on #AmazonUK, but thats another headache entirely). I downloaded your APP in the hope I could have sent to PO, but no. APP doesn't work or let me register. Neither does your website!

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

What concerns me even more is that I have also persuaded 2 other elderly family members to use O2. Who knows when their contracts are due for renewal, but if the process is as bad as this, then I certainly won't look forward to sorting that out for them. What a joke.

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

I feel like I'm on a complaining streak but here goes: This one is for @O2
I have been a loyal customer since the switch-over of Virgin Media customers. I barely use data. So, I've been more than happy with my £9.73/month tariff. The data is unimportant. Unlimited calls/texts is

[Gerbil @f4ckiam]

Rather bizarrely, despite being with O2 for a number of years now, I was asked a bunch of questions relating to my employment, my salary and whether or
not I could afford these payments!
I strongly suspect this will be the last time I commit to using and staying loyal to O2.
