What's the point in a hospital you can't contact? @spirehealthcare After an hour on the phone I've given up. Luckily, I got a reply about reinstating "MySpire" access. This includes the text "click this link" which isn't actually a link! FFS, the incompetence runs deep here.
@amazon are excelling themselves. Not content with delivering to the wrong address they don't actually seem to know that today is Wednesday, not Friday. Of course, actually contacting an actual human is impossible.
Looks like a nice deal at @currys. Except "not available", "We're not allowed to display it without a price", "Google are coming to take it away" and other rubbish. The price then mysteriously disappeared. Do yourself a favour and shop for tech on the internet...
@CityFibre Well, that's great for her. For me, despite continuous "we can connect your house" messages, you took one look at my house and declared it a lost cause. It would take me 10 minutes to shin up to the supposedly inaccessible location, most of which time would be finding the ladder.
After two months of faffing about @CityFibre have decided they can't connect us, although they claim they can. This is after two installation visits and two "surveys", the latter being distinguished by no one coming to the house and no one standing outside looking at the house.
@TheBishF1 Seems to me he's potentially accelerating the creation of F1prime, the world wide championship for drivers and constructors that is nothing whatsoever to do with the FIA. I'm sure there are lots of mind-numbingly tedious street circuits available.
@NatWest_Help What you can do is ensure that you're not requiring more of my personal data to be transferred for a simple enquiry. What you're doing is reducing security, annoying your customers and just trying to fob them off.
Dear @NatWest_Help. Is it sensible that if I want to download data from my accounts I have to a) login to the website, b) use my fingerprint to open the app and c) use facial recognition to confirm I'm me. That's 3 login protocols just to download a bunch of numbers. Really?
@NatWest_Help Nonsense. Multiple authentications does NOT improve security. All you're doing is increasing the attack surface by requiring more personal data to be transferred for a trivial transaction.
You're also driving customers away.
@NatWest_Help Security protocols are fine. But three separate ones (random password digits, fingerprint, facial recognition) for a non-financial transaction is ridiculous.
@NatWest_Help Transaction data. Securing the login is fine, but having to do it three times is raving bonkers; especially when it just used to need one secure login.
Need to talk to @virginmedia about broadband contract, complicated as it was my son's contract but transferred when he moved to a non-Virgin area. After many hours on phone and looking at infantile webchat I'm starting to think it'd be easier to cancel and find another supplier.
@graeme_cobb My personal experience, over 4 years of running EVs is that the charging is usually too quick. By the time you've had a wee, bought a coffee and drunk half of it the car's where you need it for the rest of the journey.
@graeme_cobb I find this talk of 5 minute charging tedious. It's all very well saying it's theoretically feasible but a DC charger that's capable of charging at something like 500 kW is some serious bit of kit that just isn't going to find its way to being installed any time soon.
@Jusmasel2015 Ah, but he "sensed that the code was good"; his massive background in distributed systems development helped him out here.
In any case, the code might be great, but the architecture was f**ked.
