@MartinSLewis Went to Glasgow Uni back in 2000 to study Accountancy & Finance, I couldn’t make ends meet and didn’t graduate, got an entry level role in Finance and climbed my way up to a leadership role. Do I regret not getting my degree? Yes. I could have progressed faster.

Tell Us: Did u go to University? If so was it worth it to u – financially or for other reasons? Pls include what year u went (recent or long ago) and if ur willing what Uni & what you studied. Producer Matt will compile these to read out in the podcast. Pls like ur faves too.

@john_oes still having a disaster with the EV charger. Finally got it fitted on 25th, after having the logistical and increased cost caused by delay for two months, and it’s been offline for six days and won’t work. 😩

Is anyone one else having a nightmare with @OctopusEnergy EV chargers? Ours was delayed by two months once we’d paid and were locked in. So we’ve ended up out of pocket using stations. Now it’s been fitted it doesn’t work after one week. Offline! 😩

And best part is Indie Hannan our supposed smart tech specialist has phone permanently directed to an answerphone message that states ‘leave message after beep’. Such bad service and so unexpected- major disappointment.

@OctopusEnergy @g__j as an existing customer we were excited to get our EV charger fitted by Octopus. Arranged fitting for 8 Aug, engineer phoned in sick and moved to 9 September. Today no explanation, random email saying 9th October. EV car arrived a week after 8 Aug!

@POferriesupdate There’s kids on coaches that have been at the port waiting since midday- seems longer wait time than 2 hours

#POCalais Port Traffic Update: There are large queues at border controls, with an estimated wait time of 120 mins for coach traffic and 45-60 mins for all other traffic 🚗🚌 Rest assured, we will get you on the next available sailing once you reach our loading lanes.

@THOMASSABO I ordered a pair of earrings, have been charged and they have not arrived. Have used tracking via your site, GLS and parcelforce and they have no status information. Last update was 16/01

@sherburnhigh Will Sibson seems to be doing a good job hiding so far!

We know some students are professionals at dodging the camera. If you’d like to see your skier on here and you’ve not seen them yet then please leave their first name only in the comments below. We’ll get a special request to our photographers! #SkiSherburn23

@POferriesupdate Lot longer than that, 10 hour waits for coaches at the least

#PODOVER - For those coaches that have not yet arrived in Dover please ensure that you bring supplies with you. The current wait time at the cruise terminal is approximately 3-4 hours with a similar wait time at the entrance to the Port of Dover

@sherburnhigh Well done teachers for keeping them in good spirits

All in high spirits in Dover despite the delays! #SkiSherburn23

@marcomarboni @POferriesupdate They did take food but they’ve been on the coaches for much much longer than expected, some up to to 17 hours unplanned.

@LibbySibo @POferriesupdate Then they should have brought their own....

#PODOVER - We apologise for the wait times for coaches this weekend. We have put on additional sailings overnight to help clear the backlog of traffic. Once coaches reach our check in desks they will be on the next crossing to Calais

@marcomarboni @POferriesupdate If kids are going to be stuck somewhere with no amenities for 10 hours they need water etc.

@LibbySibo @POferriesupdate Given? What do you think they're a food bank?

@LouiseHanc20467 @POferriesupdate Just not okay- what food are they being given?

@LibbySibo @POferriesupdate My daughter was on her bus for 13 hours waiting, some tweets showing coaches there for 20 hours, so awful for them

#PODover #POCoaches - We know it's really busy today and we want you to know that we are doing all we can to get all customers on their way as quickly as possible. We know this isn't the ideal start to your trip but our teams are ready to welcome you onboard once checked in

@POferriesupdate And then how long does check on take? Kids have been there for a few hours already so hopefully near the front

@LibbySibo It is really hard to say. From joining the end of the queue it is taking approx. 2-4 hours to clear all relevant checks and reach our check-in booths.

@POferriesupdate So 12-15 coaches per ferry, bbc are reporting that you have 400 more coaches arriving today and you’ve told them a 3 hour delay? 🤦🏽‍♀️😳

@POferriesupdate You do have control over your relationship with border control, how you manage your customers and how many bookings you take. You are accountable for your customers, not border control. You knew this was a risk and have not mitigated it, it’s unacceptable!

2 coaches full of kids set off at 7am to Dover, no warning of suggested later departure time, just been notified 14 hour delay by @POferriesupdate. Do not point finger at border control, take accountability, you sold this many tickets.

@POferriesupdate How many coaches are waiting?

@LibbySibo Unfortunately we do not have any control over the processes at border controls. We cannot give a time for certain but our sailings have been going out with approximately 12-15 coaches on each so far. Our next sailings from are 14:00, 15:25, 16:05 and 17:25

@POferriesupdate #PODover kids sat in car park been told 12 hour wait, you have control over the bookings you take. Take accountability- you cannot point finger at border control.
