Please report "sorry we are experiencing unusually high call volumes" messages, we are testing if firms play this for EVERY call. If you call a bank, broadband, mobile, credit card, energy, water, sewerage firm, pls take 30s to report it via moneysavingexpert.com/report… This is our final data collection before we contact the worst offenders (if it's a lie that the volumes are unusual it may well breach the FCA consumer duty) . It's unfair on callers, and unfair on call centre workers who bear the brunt of people's frustrations.

Just watched revenue protection guys on the First bus going round asking for tickets and passes. If you just say you tapped on they don’t check . Seems a bit pointless .

Running a #DeathCafe in #Erskine last Friday at @CoopFuneralcare highlighted the need for safe spaces to talk about #DemystifyingDeath, as well as the barriers to it. We are considering to make this a monthly event - stay tuned 👀 Thank you @AlexMPioneer for joining our event 😊

It was great joining @AlexMPioneer for a #DemystifyingDeathWeek community event in Battlefield. We talked about death & dying, engaged in seedball making, arts, and released five gorgeous white doves which are often part of a funeral service. @CoopFuneralcare @Tom_MPM @coopuk

Can't believe we need to say this, but DO NOT put hot or lit BBQs in the bin. A bin in Queens Park was set on fire last weekend by this action, which ultimately costs money to replace, & wastes @fire_Scot time. Please enjoy the good weather but dispose of your rubbish safely.
