@darab_farooqui As a student of this very school I can confirm all of the above. Very grateful to the jesuits for the secular education I received.

@sagarkaradi @suchetadalal @ICICIBank @RBI @FinMinIndia @ICICIBank_Care My accounts moved from to Axis from Citibank. The recent hoops I had to jump through for kyc forced me close my accounts and move elsewhere. No such problems there. Similar issues with ICICI but their staff were helpful and resolved it.

@ShireenMorrisMs @slsandpet The Yes corflute I had put up in my front yard disappeared overnight yesterday. And this is in the sleepy Hills district. Lots of haters out there.

@jasemurphy Would be interesting to find out. I donate to my chosen charities directly in a considered and deliberate way. I only contribute via Woolies or other ‘collectors’ if they are offering to match my amount. From the charity’s pov this may be a cheaper way to collect though.

@craigreucassel @Qantas @VirginAustralia The flight they gave me a ‘free’ ticket for next morning was cancelled. Again gate number was wrong for later flight so almost missed the flight again. But none of this was their fault. 2/2

@craigreucassel @Qantas It’s not just Qantas. Recently offloaded from a Virgin flight as we were sent to wrong gate lounge. Their announcements paging us were in the other terminal not heard by us. Had to sleep overnight at the airport as no vouchers left for accommodation. @VirginAustralia 1/2

@cathywilcox1 Used to. But when they started their local Australian operation a few years ago all the prices went wonky. Double sometimes. Dumped them and dumped they stay. Now for more reasons that that.

@sangpillai Thanks for a very interesting thread. Just wondering if you could shed some (legal) light on another related matter that I find puzzling: Can the govt stop its own citizens from returning to the country they are citizens of- as was done early in the pandemic?

@adamliaw Just isn’t cricket.

@RRocheNeuro This is not cricket! Can't have US spellings for it...
