Wife and I are both registered on the government "extremely vulnerable" website and confined to our property for at least the next 12 weeks.

Fraudulent EasyJet email
holidays@travel.easyjet.com I’ve received a convincing promo to “Book your next trip” from this email address but with zero Covid information just pure promo. I’m suspecting it’s fraudulent as EasyJet surely have no idea when things will recover. But more to the point with all of their contact centres closed we can’t…

THG (iwoot) issues, then someone at THG looks at my LinkedIn account...
I'm furious. I've set up another account on MSE for this as I don't want my real account linked to me personally at THG - especially since they take a very relaxed view re data protection.

Boots website
As anyone actually managed to get on the Boots website in recent days. I think I've been on their "virtual queue" for over an hour and still some 215636 ahead of me.

Amazon - to return, or not to return
Hi everyone So I've been in the market for a new gaming laptop, and I've run aground somewhat. I'm hoping that the ever-wise users of MSE can give me some advice on what to do. I bought a Razer Blade 2018 model through Amazon Warehouse for £1,000, which I understand is their way of selling returned or used goods. The…

Borders Eggs - outstanding generosity and thoughtfulness
There are many stories of people behaving badly during the crisis, and many more of selfless acts, and I thought I'd mention this one. Yesterday evening there was a knock on the door; when I opened it, a woman proferred me a tray of eggs, saying that they were a gift in the light of egg shortages in the local shops. This…

Amazon don’t care
I had a thought this morning regarding potentially infected
Amazon delivery drivers and came up with a solution – after a similar
suggestion in a email from Papa Johns Why not allow drivers to txt customers, minutes before a
delivery is due and this would allow customers to watch out for the delivery and
