@MicrosoftHelps None of this was suggested in the many hours of on-line chat I've had with Microsoft. Thanks for wasting two weeks of my time! (In this period I had changed my email address with the 95% of companies that I could without sending a link to my old address.)

@MicrosoftHelps I have been locked out of my Outlook email account for two days. I get approved in the Outlook app, but then it says it can't send a code to my phone. None of the online help works. This is causing me major problems.

@MicrosoftHelps I decided to make a Subject Access Request to the Microsoft EU Data Protection Officer. To do this I had to login via my Microsoft account (but not directly into Outlook). Then I could confirm/change my security credentials, after which amazingly I could access my emails!

@MicrosoftHelps So @MicrosoftHelps only respond to my DMs when I also post publicly. I have done everything they suggest, but am still locked out of my emails. I don't think they appreciate how much damage this is causing to me. To say that they can't remedy it is simply unacceptable.

[Nigel White @whitenigel]

@MicrosoftHelps I am still locked out of my email (now for three days) and @MicrosoftHelps hasn't been able to help. It means I can't access my tickets for future events and trips, nor some of my financial accounts. Don't use Outlook for your emails, if you don't want this to happen.

@Eurostar But can I claim compensation for alternative travel to get me home today? Which will be by Eurostar.

[Nigel White @whitenigel]

@Eurostar My train from Paris to London today is cancelled. Will you refund me if I book from Liile to London this evening?

[Nigel White @whitenigel]

@Eurostar That doesn't answer my question. I can get to Lille by bus - but need to book Lille to London ticket for this evening. Also, your website is not letting me checkout - just says there is a problem & I should contact you.

I have decided that I will no longer in future be posting on Twitter. So please follow along on Bluesky instead (same whitenigel username).

An eye-opening evening with @SayeedaWarsi on the ingrained prejudice towards Muslims. I learned a lot, caused me to think, and I was very impressed with the way she presented her argument.

[Mile End Institute @MileEndInst]

Tonight is the third in our new series of lectures celebrating Peter Hennessy’s life and work.

We’re delighted to welcome @SayeedaWarsi to @QMUL for a lively discussion of Islam and Islamophobia in modern Britain. Thank you to everyone who has joined us!

@SamYTFC Brno is lovely if you want a large, but unspoilt by tourism, city. Also, most of the smaller cities in Czechia and Slovakia are interesting, but won't take more than half a day to a day to explore.

[Nigel White @whitenigel]

@SamYTFC Bratislava nice too - a bit touristy these days.

I can't remember the last time I went to a West End play, but tonight I saw Dr Strangelove and thought it was exceptionally good.
