The Thieving Gypsy

Opinionated IT and telco pro with a low tolerance for stupid people and a penchant for gin, cheese, and shiny things.

@AmazonUK So your delivery company screws up my Black Friday orders and returns them all to you, and then you just refuse to engage with me and give be no options other than to reorder everything £60 higher? Stunning #badcustomerservice #evrifail #evri

@an0key The monarch's car never has a number plate - one of the perks of the job. I think the range rovers are Met Royal and Special Protection Command vehicles. Stands to reason they're not in public databases.

@Squid80397798 @PremPropLawyers Indeed. Premier Property Lawyers - your silence implies you’re hiding a data breach. Are you going to respond to this - or will it have to be escalated to the ICO before you take your responsibilities under GDPR seriously?

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

@MuchCwtchly @PremPropLawyers Massive IT / Security outage. They’ve been down for days.

@iMiMiMx Given I’m in Sydney right now, that’s seriously unfunny:-/

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

Very disappointed with @AmexUK to @AmexAU Global Transfer - seems its just a new application. And the only Charge Card offered in AU is the Platinum - but no-one can use any of the perks because the borders are closed indefinitely. Seems I’ll be cancelling my 17 yr membership.

@Defaultuser77 @Yonomi Mine too - just started to crash in the last 24 hours....

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

@Yonomi my app keeps on crashing as soon as I open it, on iPhone and iPad. Only started today. Is something wrong?

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

@dnanudge So you reply to my tweet pointing me to a DM, which asks me to email CS, who tell me to look at a link... which DOESNT answer the question. Awesome customer service. Must assume you’re not accredited and the tests can’t be used for travel - but you don’t have the balls to say it.

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

@dnanudge what accreditation’s do your COVID-19 tests have? Looking to use it for travel to Australia, but need assurance it will be accepted....

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

Hey @gethuel, any plans to release taster packs of #hotandsavoury? A £50 minimum purchase is a little steep when you don’t know if you’re going to like it…

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

@Laphroaig £15.17 to post #friendsoflaphroaig whiskey stones to London? Surely some mistake?

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

@AmexUK @shopsmall went out last night to #shopsmall - but despite being listed, restaurant claimed they weren’t registered - and wouldnt even take #Amex for payment. Very disappointed - want to support small businesses, but felt as though they were scamming me.

@tbmpub visited on Sunday. Had a great time, but ended up with two duplicate transactions on my card. Your staff insisted that my bank was at fault - but the bank says it definitely came from your side You need to look at this - and also let your staff know...

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

@TfL why do your drivers not enforce the mask rule on buses? Sat on the 321, and the majority of travellers are getting on the bus without masks - and the driver is just ignoring it. You have a responsibility to look after your customers! #wearamask

[AXA XL @AXA_XL]

AXA XL and our local PRIDE business resource groups (BRG) stand strong in encouraging all colleagues to be their most authentic selves every day – in and out of the office. #PrideMonth2020 #LGBT+ #Equality

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

The average number of people killed in the US by police *every month* is the same as the total number of people killed in the UK by police in the 100 years from 1920 - 2020. This is fucked up beyond belief…

[Cain Rowlands @cainrowlands]

I had also noticed this, stop sending out marketing stuff and start replying to customers who have not received orders that you have taken the money for.

[The Thieving Gypsy @thievinggypsy]

Just received a notification from the Track and Trace system, although on second look it might not be authentic. What do you reckon? Hmm, I wonder if I know anyone who’d do this sort of thing...?
