@O2 Still awaiting confirmation of a callback tomorrow - check your DMs

@O2 Someone replied and I have now replied to arrange the callback with a time/date. Email complaints agents picking have meanwhile ignored my request to escalate to CISAS and for a final position letter - despite this being in the O2 Customer Complaints Code

@O2 Horrendous response to the complaint I raised about the bereavement handling of my late father’s lines You’ve repeatedly sent communications about the complaint addressed to him distressing the family and my widowed mother. Get in touch with me with a real human being.

@O2 Every time I phone up I get fobbed off by people who say they can’t do anything. I’m exhausted and dealing with the death of my father. I need someone to reach out to me to schedule a video call. Alternatively issue a deadlock letter so I can complain to CISAS asap to escalate

@mannie_petty And a great reminder of the UK dance-pop cover of the first song by Uniting Nations! 🕺🏻 The early 2000s had some repetitive dance covers

@michaelcarre I did this recently and that part is the worst. I ended up resorting to finding a clear energy drink - but it was 300mg caffeine per can so had to ration it 🥲

@lovedaddytrev 3 years is a good amount of time. Provided that’s included transparency about your shared values, what you want the future to look like, and alignment on details people usually forget (finances, kids/family etc). Should have also lived and travelled together too.

@Pop_Activism Any idea why the Radio Edit (3min 10secs) of Kelis - 4th of July is not on Spotify? All the other mixes seem to be 😫

@dlknowles This feels like the inverse of my experience of moving from the UK to the US. People in NYC have been incredibly comfortable introducing me to their friends. Rarely happened in the UK.
