@OVOEnergy no response to complaint -not even an auto message! 14 months after my sister's death now receiving demands again for 250 quid despite this having apparently been resolved in June 2023 by a senior complaints handler. Hugely distressing.

Back in the stone age of dementia education (or so it seems now!), there were only two universities in the UK where you could learn about dementia: Bradford and Stirling. I started my journey at Bradford, but deep down, I always dreamt of donning the tartan and studying at the cool kid on the block, Stirling University. I finally enrolled on my doctorate.
Fast forward to today, and the landscape has changed—now, there's a plethora of universities offering dementia education. But let's be real, Stirling still reigns supreme! So, you can imagine my sheer delight when I got an email this week to teach a session on the master's programme on workforce development in dementia care at Stirling. It's like a full-circle moment of geeky joy!
Here's me, wearing my 'I'm over the moon' grin, because, let's face it, I'm teaching something I'm passionate about at my dream university?

@YourSSE are your complaints team/CEO all on holiday? Or just don't want to address why you sent my late sister a demand at my address for a fiver a week after having 3 assurances from your CS Team and your outsourced "deceased management service" that the account was closed

@FryUpSociety @poppykoronka @thetimes What's your view on the penchant for shoving random avocados on breakfasts by some caffs

We had a great conversation with @poppykoronka of @thetimes to discuss the hash brown being a lazy replacement for bubble & squeak. Thank you, we appreciate you covering the conversation!

@itvnews @LKilraine They have more right to be there than avocados

@eliistender10 Knickers. I bet at least 50% of women have said the same. Can't be bothered to look on the thread.

@TravelodgeUK Hi how do you speak to anyone to resolve an issue. 13p a minute for your central phone number! Finsbury Park hotel phone number out of order since 30 June! Waiting for a refund for a room that was uninhabitable due to leaks. Not heard anything from anyone.

@santanderukhelp Yes as soon as she came off her current call. 2 hours later..long call! Call was a waste of time when it came. No offer to resolve anything. Sorry that;s the process and thats it. I had to make suggestions about what she might do to help. Awful. I'll be closing my account

@happystrummer Sorry to hear this, did my colleague advise a timescale for receiving the call-back? ^EJ

@santanderukhelp no access to my account because I tried to buy a car. Cant tell me when I will have access. Cant make online purchases. Can use debit card except I'm rural with no car to get to shops because you stopped me buying it. Manager meant to ring back.
