@DrinkmateUSA - can you let DrinkmateUK know that they keep on forgetting to credit my account - and don’t respond to any emails… third time this has happened
Hey @Uber you’ve had my phone for two days. Your driver has not dropped it in at your offices (he said he would when I called it immediately after drop off). It’s my property… what is your policy on turn around? It’s no different to someone stealing it right now #uberfail
So this has been a total waste of time @TUIUK - you keep giving me a number to call that I have already called twice and you don’t bother to follow up with an email to confirm what was agreed on the call… also fob off on DM about access to to messages/calls #sotui
Hi @TUIUK - We have had three calls with you over the last month and you keep saying you will get back to us in two days with email confirmation for the change to our holiday (audio transcript available). Please can you actually send the email?
@kiwicom247 You’re very quick to point out your lack of agency (aka wash your hands of it). Why have a whole market intermediary that has the same rights as a standard consumer. You’ve moved my flight by a whole work day (circa 8 hours) & cost me £150 for the pleasure to change that flight
@kiwicom247 have been utterly unhelpful with an ‘immaterial change’ to my flight times that reduces my weekend trip by 25% and are now threatening to cancel the other flight if I don’t suck it up. They don’t deserve any #Oscars2024 for this performance.
@NOW why won’t you activate a service I have paid for? Three times speaking to your ‘customer service’ and still waiting - this should have been activated in September #yourservicesucks
@OctopusEnergy you have not invoiced me for electricity since June. You managed to not invoice me for almost a year in 2022 (& then gave me a massive bill earlier this year). I’ve emailed you three times the last month - you don’t acknowledge the issue. Do you care?
I absolutely love this story........ It made me cry.
"An 87 Year Old College Student Named Rose
The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t already know.
I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned round to find a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me
with a smile that lit up her entire being.
She said, “Hi handsome. My name is Rose. I’m eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug?”
I laughed and enthusiastically responded, “Of course you may!” and she gave me a giant squeeze.
“Why are you in college at such a young, innocent age?” I asked.
She jokingly replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, and have a couple of kids…”
“No seriously,” I asked. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.
“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she told me.
After class we walked to the student union building and shared a chocolate milkshake.
We became instant friends. Every day for the next three months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always mesmerized listening to this “time machine”
as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.
Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from the other students. She was living it up.
At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. I’ll never forget what she taught us.
She was introduced and stepped up to the podium.
As she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped her three by five cards on the floor. Frustrated and a little embarrassed she leaned into the microphone and simply said, “I’m sorry I’m so jittery. I gave up beer for Lent and this whiskey is killing me! I’ll never get my speech back in order so let me just tell you what I know.”
As we laughed she cleared her throat and began, “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop
playing. There are only four secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success.
1) You have to laugh and find humor every day.
2) You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die.
We have so many people walking around who are dead and don’t even know it!
3) There is a huge difference between growing
older and growing up.
If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing, you will turn twenty years old.
If I am eighty-seven years old and stay in bed for a year and never do anything I will turn eighty-eight.
Anybody can grow older.
That doesn’t take any talent or ability.
The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunity in change.
4) Have no regrets.
The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those
with regrets.”
She concluded her speech by courageously singing “The Rose.
She challenged each of us to study the lyrics and live them out in our daily lives.
At the year’s end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died
peacefully in her sleep.
Over two thousand college students attended her funeral in tribute to the wonderful woman who taught by example that it’s
never too late to be all you can possibly be.
When you finish reading this, please send this peaceful word of advice to your friends and family, they’ll really enjoy it!
These words have been passed along in loving memory of ROSE.
REMEMBER, GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY. GROWING UP IS
OPTIONAL.
We make a Living by what we get,
We make a Life by what we give."

@bppulseuk - seriously… lines only open from 9am to 7pm & yet you have billions of profit from everyone else’s misfortune. You’ve now got £40 more of my money & not credited to my account. Absolute our souls.
Dear @lebara - you have taken two unauthorised payments from my account. I’ll be letting users of @hotukdeals know about my experience unless you resolve this
