@Guestline, why do you send out payment requests to clients using https://t.co/5rxwRP4cen without a DMARC record defined? After all, you have defined one for https://t.co/s1DN5CnWPs. This makes no sense and breaches PCI DSS requirements.

[Nigel Pentland 🇺🇦 @nigelpentland]

@CapitalOne, I'm disappointed to find no way to message you privately as a non-customer. My question is, why does https://t.co/SmsNO36MHN have a neutral SPF record, i.e. appended with ?all when https://t.co/mSOWZ8ONRl has a more appropriate ~all Doesn't look good to me

@ODEONHelp I raised a query with your Guest Services on the 20th January, and received acknowledgement that the ticket ID is 2956948. On the 29th of January I was advised there was a delay in responding and assured I would receive a reply is due course. I'm still waiting.

This Saturday Hear Our Voice appear at the BGT Final with a universal message for our dark times. Mostly survivors of the PO scandal, the choir embodies the determination & unity which has sustained them through desperate adversity & unleashed a musical force to be reckoned with.

@marksandspencer, you are forcing everyone to change their passwords, but the email you sent out with a reset link is DKIM signed with a key which is no longer available, namely s=200608, resulting in an email which fails DKIM, it does pass SPF, but not a good security look!

@HJoyceGender just listened to the podcast 'Defining a woman' from The Times and couldn't agree more with your words of wisdom. Thank you.

@SouthLanCouncil Thanks for responding. Sorry but I disagree. G74 5BU does NOT include Peel Park Place, I think you will find the correct postcode is G74 5LW

[Nigel Pentland 🇺🇦 @nigelpentland]

@SouthLanCouncil https://t.co/6DwISQ8JIf gives Postcode G74 5BU, which is on the wrong side of the Queensway. The email confirming my appointment gave Postcode G74 5RU, which doesn't exist. Communication is not your strong point.

[Nigel Pentland 🇺🇦 @nigelpentland]

@creditkarma can you please explain why you DKIM your emails with a 2 hour expiry? Almost every email I receive from creditkarma has a failed DKIM signature due to being expired. I think this undermines your security when people come to expect invalid DKIM signatures! Why?

[Nigel Pentland 🇺🇦 @nigelpentland]

@webuyanycar_uk I have received a text message to my mobile concerning NU70NTY - please note this vehicle has nothing to do with me! buyer beware!

[Nigel Pentland 🇺🇦 @nigelpentland]

@TSScot hello, FYI the Bulletin 24 October has gone straight into my SPAM folder. Reason appears to be invalid DKIM signature. This is the first time I've seen a failed signature from TSS. Thought you ought to be aware.

🚆🚉💷GRAVY TRAIN BULLETIN💰🚉🚆
In 2013 Royal Mail Group's CEO MOYA GREENE was forced to repay a £250,000 perk given to her by RMG Chair Donald Brydon to help her buy a house. RMG was still a State Corporation and once Sec of State Vince Cable found out about the secret payment he rightly insisted it was repaid. He said had he known/been asked he would have vetoed the payment. https://t.co/OLyyt9cEsn
The controversial payment helped to take Miss Greene’s total remuneration to £1.47million in 2012/13, up a third, making her one of the country’s highest paid Public Officials.

Separately it also emerged that Post Office CEO PAULA VENNELLS saw her total pay jump by 50 per cent to nearly £700,000 in the same 2012/13 Accounting period.
