Part and Company

@OctopusEnergy Please do as I have spent upwards of 6 hours of phone calls and over 25 emails with full evidence and a complaint opened for 2 months

@Partandcompany Hi there, it definitely sounds like something's gone awry here given that the property's empty. I'll DM you now to confirm your account details and I'll get right on the case for you.

@OctopusEnergy how do you bill £5000 for a vacant property with no electric fittings and a condemned meter that hasn’t had a bill for 3 years . Had a complaint opened for 2 months. Clearly an account admin mistake … as paid all bills for 12 years direct debit

@OctopusEnergy should clearly be 2 accounts for separate properties, have produced all evidence and @nationalgrid paperwork, been reported in for over 2 years and still you ignore ….woeful behaviour

seen this firsthand my mates uncle supplies paper napkins to 800 restaurants across the costa del sol €11M last year from napkins, a warehouse, a van and a phone met him at a bbq in marbella last summer looked like a retired PE teacher polo shirt sandals drives a 2019 volkswagen i asked my mate what his uncle does "logistics" "what kind" "he delivers napkins and paper towels to restaurants" i laughed "hes worth about €8 million" i stopped laughing later that night his uncle started talking "we buy napkins from one factory in valencia. €0.003 per napkin. we sell them to restaurants for €0.01. thats a 230% markup on something people blow their nose with and throw in the bin" "but the real money isnt the margin. its the reorder" every restaurant orders napkins every week without thinking about it "we have 800 restaurants. average order is €180/week. 52 weeks a year. do the maths" 800 × €180 × 52 = €7.4M plus paper towels toilet rolls takeaway containers and cleaning supplies €11M total i asked if restaurants ever switch suppliers "why would they? its napkins. nobody has a meeting about napkins. nobody puts napkins out to tender. the chef calls me on monday like hes done for 9 years and says 'same again' and i deliver on wednesday" zero churn on a product people throw away without thinking thats the moat "what about competition?" "who wants to compete in napkins? every kid on the internet wants to build an app or start an agency. nobody wakes up and says i want to be the napkin guy. thats why ive had no real competitor in 22 years" i asked why he doesnt scale to other regions "why? i work 4 days a week. i drive my daughter to school every morning. i take august off. i made €11M last year selling things people wipe their mouth with and throw on the floor. what would scaling get me? stress?" he took a sip of wine and said the thing i think about constantly "the best business in the world is selling something nobody thinks about to customers who never switch. the moment your business is interesting enough to talk about at dinner someone will try to copy it. i sell napkins. nobody copies me. nobody wants to" there are families all over europe running businesses like this invisible boring printing while everyone fights over the same saturated markets trying to look impressive online attention attracts competition obscurity attracts profit

Hospitality is most people’s first job and the best entry point into the job market. Thank you to John Cooper for raising the importance of first jobs and asking for a change of policy on employer NICs. Government must safeguard first jobs and entry level jobs.

One for the slow golfers out there: If you play in over 4 hours at Sleepy Hollow (and many other clubs of stature) you will get your name posted for the whole club to see. Is this a fair punishment? To the slow golfers, do you still think it’s okay to be slow? Does the fact that great golf clubs would punish you for slow play finally make you consider that maybe you are a problem? Keep in mind, this doesn’t mean you have to rush. It just means being ready to hit and not acting like you are trying to win a major with every 3 footer.

Iconic. 🍿

@QHotels #OxfordBelfry Possibly the worst hotel stay in my life. Pre paid pre booked room check in 5pm and not available till 7pm. Tone and attitude/ communication of front desk woeful. Finally a visiting staff member gave up their room ! Whole experience woeful and unacceptable

@SW_Help Absolute joke ! One train every 2 hours due to “safety” cancel first train due to “lack of staff “ 2 hour wait … 3.15 journey now 6 hours … great for a meeting ! Refund again on an already overpriced rubbish service

Almost three quarters (73%) of hospitality businesses have less than six months of cash reserves, with one in five having no cash reserves at all, a new study has revealed @UKHofficial - in Propel

@DAZN_help_ @DAZNBoxing @dazngroup HELP as your help@dazn.com is redundant and I have been charged a years subscription at 14.99 a month but my account says I am on a FREE subscription…. I need to cancel or be refunded

@CoventryBS I will do but have wasted 5 months 6 hours of phone calls . 9 weeks waiting for customer complaints department to come back with answers. All of your staff are so embarrassed by the service and system

@Partandcompany Hi there, i'm very sorry to read this - we'd like to take a look into this in more detail and discuss this further. Please could you send us a DM with your name, contact number and a suitable time to call you? Cheers, Keenan.

@CoventryBS your @ says it all. You and @AsktheCoventry have made the last 6 months. The worst service , communication, application process of my adult life #Mortgage. An Embarrassment in every way . Going @financialombuds for answers

33 years Simon Rimmer has had this restaurant. @TonyRoddUK & @jrmallcock have also closed their restaurants since Christmas. These are top class operators, when will this government wake up. No wonder they have awarded a Knighthood to Mr Spoons…he’s going to be all that’s left.

A very sad day for us. A message from us @greensveggie

For the people at the back: Immigrants didn't do this Trans people didn't do this Disabled people didn't do this 750ml bottles of wine didn't do this The government's greed, their lack of action, energy companies, unscrupulous business people...they did this!
