Brexit is the biggest mis-selling scandal ever seen by the UK. Like all mis-selling scandals, it'll take a while to bring the fraudsters to trial but I'm patient. #Brexit

@CuriousLuke93x @KayBurley @LancashireFRS @LancsPolice "a 42-year-old man from Adlington was arrested on suspicion of assault, assault on an emergency worker, arson with intent to endanger life and criminal damage." The police need drones equipped with tasers for this sort of thing.

@ClearScore You won't let me unsubscribe from emails so I am reporting it as spam. Your policy is stupid, please change it. Too late for me though.

@Plusnet I'm very happy with my PlusNet broadband and I've been with you many years but this aspect of your customer support is crap. My options seem to be:
a) phone and wait 20mins+ or
b) phone and wait 20 mins +
Hmmnn... 🤔

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@Plusnet I am a customer of yours. Is there any way to send you a message? Your phone wait time is 20mins at the moment. We will be moving house in 3 or 4 months but we want to upgrade our service now.

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@Plusnet Hi, you didn't read my message. Your phone service has 20 min + wait time. How can I send you a query in a message? Thanks for your time. 😐

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@HMRCcustomers I started my query on the 26th Jan and now it is the 28th. I have sent you 5 messages, this is my 6th. I just realised how much of my time you guys are taking up. So I've managed to fix it myself.

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@HMRCcustomers I've just done my tax return and your system says that you owe me money (from a year or so back). How can I tell you to pay it to me?

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@HMRCcustomers I have no idea. Does it matter? If I log onto your platform, how would I be able to tell?

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@HMRCcustomers The credit is NOT from the last tax year that I have just submitted a return for. Please tell me how to claim it directly online.

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@HMRCcustomers I think it was. How can I gently encourage you to pay me?

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@HMRCcustomers Hi Namjin, you have misspelled my name. ;)
My tax return is submitted already and, as I said, the refund is for a previous year.
How can I get you to pay me the money?

Learning a language is all about consistent practice. My streak is long because Duolingo is fun. It's free too !https://t.co/cKdPneooCL

@Dott One of your bikes is in the River Frome (Bristol). Can you please remove it? @BristolCouncil Are you working in partnership with @dott over issues like this?

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@HolywoodCyclist @ediz1975 The design is nuts. There are two pedestrian zones separated by a very thin cycle lane - that's bound to cause issues! Do the powers that be really think this is the best answer to bus stops?

2025 is nearly over and it's time to review the year! I'm happy that I've learned quite a lot of German this year. #Duolingo365

@jimmy_wales Maybe Bourne should have started his article with the Sowell quote ("The first lesson of economics...") instead of finishing with it. Politicians and economists have different objectives. That's why we tie ourselves up in knots.

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@zsk you might also want to ask them about the fact that I can't search for articles you've written on BBC website

[Michael Corbett @kobb]

@zsk Its a minor thing but the link to https://t.co/Pav92ZtBDT doesn't work. The URL is actually https://t.co/Yfq1L9prWw. It would be good if the BBC could buy that domain and do a redirect.
