It's Android 5.5 and won't update anymore. I can't even put the Waitrose app on it to claim my coupons. I have emailed them and said how can I get these without an App - there's two I really do want worth 50p each I have to use by March 2nd. Halva and bog roll.

Bert posted:I need a new phone because my motger binned mine, Glad.Have you considered a tablet that is alsoa phone? I've got a galaxy tab 7.7 which I managed to upgrade to Android 4.4 - it does have a beautiful screen for watching vids on (from an SD card) so I'm not going to let it go unless it dies. I need a new laptop (and I DO need a new laptop because I do sensible things like megatons of spreadsheets and data stuff on it, a tablet no good for proper work) and this laptop is now 6 and the 'a' is playing up and I have to start booting it 45 mins before I need to use it. But it has a dual English / Arabic keyboard which I will have to give up for a new laptop - and no stickers are not any sort of answer because they peel off and gum up the works. Also need new phone because - what a crying shame - I can't participate in the work whatsapp group :even more crying:

As they've been crediting me £16pm instead of charging me £22pm, they're either going to catch up with me OR start crediting me £16.72 per month. Hm. As long as when they do catch up with me they don't try whipping it all out of the direct debiting account without prior warning and hit me with a bounced DD charge! I'm saving what they should be charging me in a separate savings account. Jaeluni Asjil fucked around with this message at 03:41 on Feb 26, 2022 |

Nice trip down memory lane for you all https://twitter.com/jrc1921/status/1497488630230786048?s=20&t=uW2l6lClzMqeN9DHTaJalw 2003, what a wonderful time. The dastardly Andy Gilchrist, FBU leader, who FORCED soldiers to cover for striking firefighters instead of preparing for war. As opposed to the government who refused to come to terms with the FBU & decided to put squaddies out there to fight fires instead.

serious gaylord posted:3 have been giving you money instead of charging you? How long has this been going on for and have you informed them? Not yet. They've been crediting my account 4 months now. I haven't taken the money out of it. The reason I haven't notified them is because both my internets (home broadband and mifi) are with them and I do not trust their customer services to not make a complete hash if it and screw up both. This is based on my experience of trying to log in to my accounts WITH customer services online and despite changing email addresses clicking links in emails sent by CS (with them still online) and numerous resets, just impossible. I need to sort out alternative internet first incase this goes pop. I WFH a lot and need functioning internet! {Deleted unposted} rant about state of UK customer services not blaming the poor persons who take the flack but not empowered to resolve anything more than have you tried switching it off and on again.{/deleted}

The O2 team contacted me all 'is there anything we can do to persuade you to stay?' and I told them I would stay if they could match 12 quid a month for unlimited data, and then they never got back to me again.

What version of excel do you have access to and what sort of things do you do? Chandoo has a good channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/ExcelTutorials He has an introductory course https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmejDGrsgFyCZ4YC5s8mgdQztj7zt5to5 Some of what he might do depends on what version of Excel you have. Quite a few things can't be done on 2010.
