London Exile Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 See NJ's post below the one I'm responding to. Ok I did promise NJ that I'd leave him alone about a million posts ago on this thread but since you referred to his post......I spent ten minutes on a premium rate line to an insurance company today correcting a mistake they made in my details. I guess if I could wish back all the minutes/hours/days I've lost from my life pressing one, two, three and listening to fecking Elgar/ Bay City Rollers/ Elton bleedin John music while on hold at 50p a minute I could still claim to be middle aged instead of being an old Fart. What's my point...I guess it's just that premium rate lines seem to be the norm these days and we just have to accept it. And I'm not getting into the 'pissing on the office staff' posts. When I get through a whole day without screwing something up then I'll feel a whole lot more comfortable with throwing around shit on people who're trying their goddamn best.

I'm not (presumably everyone else as well) in the slightest bit interested in your insurance matters. Don't fully follow the rest of your imo pathetic rant, but bottom line is simple things like sending out of season tickets are not being carried out.

Aaah, the old personal abuse post...that's always a good strong mature response. You asked me to 'see' NJ's post, I assumed that meant you agreed with what he said and wanted me to respond to it. My mistake I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please be so kind as to point it out! 1) I wasn't and still am not interested in whatever premium numbers you have had to phone regarding some insurance matter. 2) "pathetic rant" was preceded by imo.

Lenziejag Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I'm sorry Lenzie but I genuinely can't do this anymore. You've worn me down, there's nothing more I can say if you refuse to even acknowledge previous discussions, without me providing a quote. Suits me. Cheerio.

Lenziejag Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 But why isn't it ready? Why wasn't it ready in time for the big launch? Why have a build up to a grand unveiling, get people to sign up then sit down and work out how to get it ready? Doesn't make sense. I don't know why it wasn't ready. Maybe there is not enough people to get the stuff done. Maybe there were more important things to get done, like getting the pitch ready, getting the electronic entry system sorted, getting the team sorted. Maybe they were doing stuff that shouldn't have been a priority. But every job takes up resource and there maybe wasn't enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the electrical mechanic who installs the new turn styles (Who also doesn't work for Thistle) also doubles up by writting the script for TAG, or the guy that got the team sorted ..wait a minute.... that'll be Archie....... he never done the TAG as he was running double session........ wait a minute maybe its one and the same guy, it must be Archie, we know he prepared the team, maybe he also owns a tractor and took a mechanical / electrical course at night school last year to install automated turnstyles.

Bottom line hasn't changed however! Jesus mate, read your own posts. You asked me to 'see' NJ's post where he talked about premium line calls...NJ, PT and some others, while I don't agree with the repetitive posts on multiple topics, are at least posting in frustration at what they see as things that could/ should / seem to be easily fixable if someone from the club would stand up and acknowledge the shortcomings. And yeah, you're right. Putting 'imo' in front of insults, well that just changes everything. Sorry if I upset you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a Director on the board i am not in the position to Direct the club going forward, merely a customer who is giving feedback as to where the club can channel its efforts to maintain and improve instead of plummet and that the way it is going 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twinny Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 Please don't post details of the club's direct number to avoid the premium rate number.

A way of extracting money from people without them knowing it. Fans give enough money to the club without being hoodwinked in to giving more.
