@Optus Someone’s set up an account with my email address. I’m in the UK, I don’t have an account with you. You’re hard to reach. Please sort.

@SimonCalder I'm taking the ferry to Spain. £76 for two people. Another 100 for the cabin. No baggage allowance. No massive waits. 45 minute check in. Last time I did the trip I was off the boat and in the bar at Santander under 15 minutes.

122 easyJet passengers were left behind at Milan after their Manchester flight took off with only 34 on board, due to EU entry-exit system delays. Could it happen to you? From 1 to 2pm today I will host a live Ask Me Anything on the EES. Here's the link 🔽 independent.co.uk/travel/news-an…

@AlanJLSmith Where’s the photo of unwashed dishes? Feels like there’s more to this.

We just rented a property for a weekend break – the owners charge me for an extra 8 hours cleaning above the standard cost. They sent me images supporting their deduction. We left it clean and tidy - ok some unwashed dishes in the sink and a bottle outside. Is this fair?

@ExpediaHelp I began this survey but was told (shorthand) ‘nah, not from you’ after answering a fair few questions. There was no warning on the email so you’ve wasted my time. Please explain.

@gordonmcdonald I'm so sorry to hear this! It's not the level of service we'd expect. Maybe another attempt with one of our Agents in 'live chat' and explain the journey you've been through and that all you need is an old card removed from the service. ^JG

@VirginMoney Did this. 15 minute call. She managed to cut my access from the app then conveniently hung up. No call back, naturally. 0/10.

@gordonmcdonald If you call through on that number and once you've gone through our automated message select 3 to speak with someone, they'll take the details of the card you no longer require access to and remove this from your App service. ^JG

@VirginMoney I did. They didn’t. They told me to call 0800 328 3578. No option to help.

@gordonmcdonald Hi Gordon, if you've got access to the App just head in there to speak with someone through 'live chat' - just explain the card you've closed is still visible, and you'd like that removed. They'll know what to do! ^JG

@AirbnbHelp These are app notifications and no, you can’t turn them off. They’re useless, and nobody asked for them.

@Airbnb why can’t we get rid of these notifications (we didn’t ask for)? They don’t need a ‘follow-up’ and just add clutter to the app.

You didn’t get the memo, @Airbnb? We’re not in the pandemic anymore. Keep up.

@thewhitecompany Inside a White Company store (Chiswick) being told I couldn’t use the 15% discount sent by SMS. Instead, I had to order online (free delivery) for you to send out to me: bonkers for your bottom line and bonkers for the environment, surely?

I just paid $16.58 for a cheeseburger and small fries and declined to leave a tip when prompted because I'm gonna have to leave it to the workers and owners of Five Guys to sort out how much of that goes to each party. I just can't keep paying for things twice.
