So I went to the @BandQ to collect my item but they said they don't have it. And furthermore they're not expecting it and will refund me. What's going on there?

Update: item was out of stock (presumably due to a mis-count) so "available now" was either a bug or some operator error which will be reported to the relevant department.

Pretty sure that was a bit of timely self-editing from @JamieChadwick just then, discussing the effect of a slow lap on Piastri's mind 😅 #SkyF1

@EE I'm trying to buy stuff from you but I can't create an account. I enter the verification code and just get dumped back at the create account or log in page. Is something broken?

Just because you don’t understand what a tariff is doesn’t mean the market doesn’t. The market gets it perfectly: tariffs are taxes on your own people. That’s why it just erased trillions in value in under 48 hours. You can scream about “retaliation” and “abuse,” but investors, businesses, and families see the reality: This isn’t strength. It’s economic self-sabotage. And for everyone out there clapping—get ready to pay 104% more for washing machines, ovens, grills, bikes, phones, TVs, tools, batteries, lightbulbs, medical equipment, and everything else you didn’t know came from China. Because slogans don’t keep your fridge running.

@thetrainline I paid twice before going to the kiosk to buy a ticket. I'm going to need two refunds.

Refund is already on its way. Decent customer service from @thetrainline . I guess I'll reinstall the app now and see what happens next time I buy a ticket 😬

@thetrainline I will need the full amount refunded, please.

@thetrainline I nearly bought a more expensive ticket because my cheap train was cancelled. Luckily I checked because the train is not cancelled!

Apologies: There was a train at the same time but many of its destinations were cancelled, including mine. Station staff misadvised me.

I've been enjoying this Sting set in Preston but this Roxanne seems especially de-tuned!

@ParentPay scheduled maintenance the night before school starts? Seems unlikely... 🤔

It took me a while to realise that the maintenance page is a redirect, so just hitting F5 doesn't work because you're just refreshing the maintenance page even when maintenance is over. Might want to fix that!

I wish @THORPEPARK would give out more clues when rides close temporarily so we can judge better whether to wait for a reopening. #hyperia @ThrillData what about a distplot of closure times?

Hey @SportsDirectUK how am I supposed to buy trainers in your shop? Completely at a loss.

Nm. Finally figured out that the piles of boxes don't represent all the SKUs, and there are in fact staff to fetch things from out back if you look hard enough and don't take their excuses about it not being their area.
