@WeAreOpenreach OK thanks John. I've done that now. Time is of the essence though as your team's likely only here for a few more days. Any more immediate route I could try?

I already mailed the CEO and MD but neither found it in the hearts to reply :-(

[Neil @ntruby1]

@WeAreOpenreach Good morning. Your team are working for 2-3 weeks in my village to provide FTTP but, according to the team leader, the work is stopping at my neighbour's.

She suggested I contacted you to ask for this to be reviewed while they are still in the village.

@SumUp Hi, please may I have a reply - or even acknowledgment! - to my query, raised on your "Support" portal on Friday, and escalated via X both by post and direct message, please?

@SumUp Hi, had a payout yesterday with the wrong fee deducted. Tried to raise this through the Support portal but no-one is ever there. Left a message 6 or 7 times but no-one replies.
What's the complaints process please?

@devisridhar I think your own writing in the G is a great example: I often don't agree with your conclusions (zero covid), but you are truly brilliant at explaining difficult concepts very clearly. Is that innate or can it be trained? If the latter, tell your students to acquire that skill.

[Neil @ntruby1]

@devisridhar On a variation of what @StevenCorder4 said: by all means STEM to the hilt, but also take options, or take part-time jobs/volunteering, that build other skills too. Report writing and sales or any inter-personal skills are great allies to scientific knowledge for a full career.

@OfficialPVFC Good Morning! Could I have a reply please? Emailed tickets@ and enquiries@- no reply there either. Cheers!
In the back of my mind I can claim a free ticket to next Tuesday's game v Barrow as I paid full price for the home game against Newport. Is that right? Thx

@woodenbridge90 @NoContextHumans Well, maybe. But for any predator to attack involves some risk to itself (admittedly it's difficult to list them in this case!), so most don't if not actually hungry.

[Neil @ntruby1]

@woodenbridge90 @NoContextHumans I suppose so, but I imagine she checked first that it had been amply fed; and she's being gentle and affectionate to it so why would it attack her?

[Neil @ntruby1]

@UKAirband Thanks for the quick reply; sent a DM.

[Neil @ntruby1]

@UKAirband Hi, my new 300Mbps service is working fine now, thanks.

The house is very tall and I'm struggling to get service to the top. Is it possible to buy/rent extra Nokia 2 routers from Airband, or should I just buy Easy Mesh ones from Amazon?

Thanks.

@devisridhar The evenings have been getting longer since last Friday ... that's my copium!

@CSPScheme Hi there. Please may you reply to my direct message (which, ironically, is about absence of reply to a transfer request?). Thank you!

@SoVeryBritish Anyone with a limp gets called "The Sniper's Nightmare".

@CSPScheme Please may you reply to my DMs/emails etc?

[Neil @ntruby1]

@marksandspencer Hi, I bought some wine, and some is off. Tried to contact cust service and just kept getting terminated (see s/shot).
Back in the day it was a doddle to contact M&S on the rare occasions things went wrong, and get redress. Why is it made so difficult now?!

[Neil @ntruby1]

@CSPScheme Good Morning. Could you please reply to my DM and/or email about Transfer Out forms - thanks.

@ohlookitswill_ @SomersetCCC It's a short career. Somerset could have backed him rather than signed Ball. Cuts both ways.
