Returning £8 worth of three defective things to @AmazonUK - each one has to go in a separate bag at the local shell garage for return. Surely this is costing Amazon more than it's worth to return them. Given they're not fit for purpose anyway and should be scrapped...

. @thetrainline I have just tried to change my password three times using 'forgotten password' - and it never works. I have tried 8 chars, 12 chars, 16 chars, all with one symbol. And it accepts, but won't let me sign in afterwards.

This. One thing I miss about working @ G was the culture of meetings finishing on time, and starting on time (subject to a very small bit of leeway for meeting room shuffles)

. @British_Airways did anyone actually think about this absolute cluster* of a design decision on your website to select country? Translate the country but don't then sort the list? 🤦

. @AmexUK if I make a payment with @monzo the completed payment is not shown in the app for some minutes. Making me think it's not made. I'm now down a lot of cash as I did two by mistake. Can't be repaid for 7-10, days apparently. Please fix this awful UX.

Oh dear lord. @NHSuk 'How was your recent hospital visit' SMS sent to my mother's phone. SHE PASSED AWAY IN HOSPITAL a week prior. Please don't do this.

Not surprised, but so far doing probate for a close family member, I have to rate @OctopusEnergy as the best, most sympathetic, personal and proactive response yet. Thank you @g__j and team.

I tweeted a tweet about Science! I read the article myself, and wrote the tweet myself and posted it myself. 🥹🥹🥹 I haven't been able to do anything like that for a year and a half. 😭 It only took me three days lol. But I did it.

Wow, super impressed by the speed and efficiency of @VirginAtlantic cancelling flights after a family bereivement. Really felt that the #CustomerService reps listened with empathy, and dealt with my request quickly and efficiently - thank you.

Unlocking my hotel room door with my fingernails! New #defconnails for #defcon inspired by Jon Buckley's "High Tech Monopoly" with 2x hidden Mifare Classic magic chips and 2x NTAG+LED nail stickers that I designed. I used @flipper_zero to clone my room key to the Mifare chip!

. @AskNationwide as much as I appreciate your marketing there is a certain amount of irony in putting this sign next to your waiting area in the branches
