Maturable for a nine-letter word? #Countdown

@C4Countdown @Channel4 @rorybremner @ColinMurray @susie_dent @RachelRileyRR I think they missed a nine-letter word there: weatherly.

@daraobriain I've never watched hurling before. It was brilliant! End to end stuff and a really close game.

#BritainsGotTalent sounded more like Elmo than Kate Bush!

@silentplayer It just did it again! I’m back in the line, but think I’m probably wasting my time.

@CouncilDorset There are already 44 non-Tory councillors elected, so that would be impossible.

@bbceastenders Would the police really arrest someone just because they had a motive? Seems odd.

@Ngonge69JOHN Bad news: https://t.co/d5ZOJtVOX7

@bandq_help Your online ordering seems not to be working, coming up with a message, ‘Sorry, the internet connection was lost…’ when you try to pay for an order. Please can you let me know when this is working again?

[Phil King @philkingeditor]

I rang your customer service line and the guy said you would ring me back tomorrow between 10am and 2pm. I would appreciate a call ASAP to rearrange delivery – hopefully for sooner than next week. Or DM me here.

@johnlewishelp
I appreciate that nobody can foresee a delivery lorry breaking down, but we are disappointed not to get our new TV today. The earliest date I could arrange for redelivery is next Monday, but now it seems that isn’t even confirmed.

[Phil King @philkingeditor]

@JohnLewisRetail Worse still, I don’t yet have a confirmation of the new delivery date. What’s going on?

[Phil King @philkingeditor]

@LloydsBank Your mobile app (on Android) won’t let me dispute a payment for an item I have not received. When I select No to answer whether it’s about a holiday or flight, the app just shows a spinning circle as if it’s waiting for something, but just gets stuck.

@BBCSouthNews I'm now getting BBC South East news instead of BBC South on my Freesat box. I haven't changed any settings and live in Dorset. My postcode is correctly set. I can't even find it in the other regional channels.

[Phil King @philkingeditor]

Top tip: if your Android phone is laggy, delete the Facebook and Messenger apps. Worked a treat for me. My phone was getting very slow to update the homescreen and now it's as quick as anything.
