@northernassist another fine example of a service company offering a woeful and inadequate service Train cancelled from Mcr Piccadilly on Easter Saturday evening .. why .. staff shortage and no drivers. Clearly a lack of planning and basic management. Pathetic.

@SmallRigGlobal Disappointed that the USB cover on the RM03 lights keeps opening It’s a known problem, yet nothing done about it. I have many Smallrig products and very happy with them all, hence expectations for these lights. Rather pay more for Adaptalux and be fault free.

@Morrisons Lamb Chops within 24 hours has gone from £18 per Kg to £26 per Kg. Would be really interesting to understand what the reason is for this mighty 44% increase.

@UberUK Another 20 mins wasted trying to get an Uber in Manchester at 11pm Always on its way or trying to connect to a driver. Went on my local taxi company app, booked and arrived in 5 mins, that’s not the first time that’s happened Uber needs to do better, or don’t bother

@AngelaRayner why are you allowing the destruction of the countryside around Gee Cross ( a little village in your constituency which BTW is Tameside) Do you not care ?

@haloheadbanduk. I do find the sweat bands helpful in keeping the sweat from my eyes However, after around 3 years the yellow rubber comes off Happened on the 3 I have had over the years, best I got was 4 years and had to bin it If you have a solution it will be most welcomed.

@StockportMBC I have 2 green bins and will buy a weekly collection permit, however I only want to buy 1 permit. I notice that the permit needs to be stuck to the bin itself. I would rotate the 2 bins and only put out 1 bin each week. How do I do this with only 1 permit Ta.

@northernassist It’s a Greater Manchester concessionary travel pass for buses and trains within Greater Manchester offered to pensioners It’s free for buses with an additional £10 fee for trains

@plodge5 How did you purchase this railcard please? ^VR

@northernassist Why is your service so bad and what are you doing about it other than blowing smoke up everyone’s ar5e Sunday services are shameful and getting worse. So when can we see an improvement ?

@northernassist So what happens when I have a senior railcard and therefore no ticket But a taxi receipt for £24

@plodge5 Sadly this is due to a shortage to train crew, we are working on training up for staff to help with this issue, if you have any tickets tat you have not been able to use you will be able to have them refunded. ^VR

@northernassist Can’t guarantee that trains on a Sunday evening from Manchester Piccadilly to Romiley/Bredbury will run. Had several cancellations recently and left stranded so had to use taxi’s Basically. Unreliable and don’t trust your service Like this for a year, what you doing about it.

@plodge5 Hello, what journey are you wanting to make please? ^VR

@SkyHelpTeam Why leave it until a contract has expired and your customer has gone elsewhere before offering the best price. Give the best price on day one and stop your customers shopping around. I got 2 text messages and 2 calls after I had signed up with BT. Your loss.

@BBCRadioManc So is anybody actually doing anything about it, other than stating facts that have existed for many months.

@AndyBurnhamGM Another visit to Mcr ruined due to the appalling service from Northern Rail. Continuous cancellations and not fit for service Last time we visited, the last train of the day was cancelled thus requiring a £50 taxi ride home to Chapel.

@haloheadbanduk Great idea, just a shame the adhesive attaching the rubber to the actual band doesnt last more than a few years. Had 4 over time and now the last one has done the same.

@northernassist Pathetic service and not fit for purpose. Crew shortages today, what a disgrace for a public service provider. Clearly management don’t understand the word management.

That's it from us today, we will be back with you from 7am tomorrow👋 If you need assistance whilst we’re away, please speak to station staff, use customer help points or check your journey here👉journeycheck.com/northern/

@future_of_music @RobertSmith Ticketmaster are ripping fans off with ridiculous charges. I just paid an additional 20% admin fee to have mobile tickets delivered to my phone. Regulation and pressure from bands (assuming that they are bothered) is required to make this fairer for everyone.

This is an encouraging precedent, even if it's no substitute for needed regulation. Artists take heed: when you speak up (with both conviction and nuance), you can make new things possible.

@NoContextBrits Love it, the bloke lives in the real world.
