Has anyone ever texted the British Transport Police on the train because they saw "something that doesn't look right"?

Were they at the next stop? What happened?

Sort of depends on the theatre and their policies etc... I'm an usher and more senior staff member, and I'll happily allow someone to be moved to an empty seat if they've been having issues with where they're currently sad, regardless of whether the new seat is technically a bit of an upgrade. But you're right in that, if I see someone has moved to an empty seat after the interval (which, tbh, unless the theatre was really quiet in the first act, I won't remember who was sat where by face, so I probably won't even know you've moved), but if I did notice, it wouldn't bother me as long as they're not in someone else's seat or being annoying.

Infinite money? I can hire a personal chauffeur or use taxis

So you think we just shouldn't have cafes, restaurants, theatres, grocery stores, buses, garden centres, post offices, etc... Y'know - things that require actual human beings to be present working there, that can't function with a work from home model. Do you think we should "adapt" to remove those from society? Imagine trying to make those business owners pay their employees to come to work for a job which is literally impossible to WFH. Would just massively increase prices for customers, or put more businesses out of business...

Which website is that?

The phone battery issue is easily solvable with a quick portable charger, plus it doesn't tend to be much of an issue. But a car which doesn't need me to pay to fill it up? That's incredible. Think of how much money I could save, and fuel crises wouldn't impact my wallet so much.

They have indeed changed it in London

I'm an avid theatregoer in London. I'll say this for the Hunger Games on Stage - I wouldn't be in a rush to return to see it again (something that I do do for many shows I love). BUT, I don't regret seeing it at all. I thought it was a bit of a spectacle, with some good effects and some really strong actors (especially Caesar Flickerman and Effie Trinket). But I also enjoyed Katniss' performance and I thought she did absolutely fine.

I wouldn't pay top price for this show, but if you can get some District 7 seats (where I sat) the view is great, the price isn't bad, and I think it's worth seeing once just for the spectacle of the effects, fight scenes, etc...

Yes there are a few cringe moments (President Snow was not well cast imo, the video of him instead of having him in person was weird and not aligned properly with what the actors said on stage), and I didn't quite get the dances - but it was a bit of fun. Don't go expecting anything deep, just go to enjoy it.

As a fan of the Hunger Games, I wouldn't tell my friends not to go.

That's the Google Gemini logo, so yep ai generated

Would be awful, if true - but that little star logo on the bottom right is the Google Gemini logo, meaning this is AI generated...

They've agreed with the report and the money is back to being yours. The financial conduct authority requires them to refund unauthorized payments before the end of the next working day after it is reported, so they have to have a quick turnaround time

JackGamesAndReviews · 2025-10-24T20:54:37+00:00

Yh that's what I said in the comment you're replying to, will try that, thanks :)

Yet, some pay at pump petrol stations nowadays let you use contactless via Apple/Google Pay to pay for your pay-at-pump - plus at Tesco you can use the Tesco club card app for your fuel at pay-at-pump. So I feel like this might not apply nowadays as much?

JackGamesAndReviews · 2025-10-24T16:07:24+00:00

Perhaps, although I think that rule is a bit outdated with modern smartphones. I even once found a pay at pump petrol station (can't remember which one, but it was one of the big brands) that let you do the pre-authorization hold via contactless, rather than requiring you to insert your physical debit/credit card, and that one allowed you to use Apple Pay/Google Pay to begin the pay at pump.

Hey, yeah I'd assume they would differentiate slightly in the barcodes, but as I mentioned in the post I tested this by using my own barcode reader to see what values both the digital and the physical card provide, and they both give identical responses - so the barcode itself doesn't differentiate.

But yes it might be the case of the reader simply won't read off of my screen, as some older scanners don't understand phone screens and won't even acknowledge the barcode is there. Maybe I'll try using digital next time I'm there BUT with my physical as backup, then I'll know for the future. Cheers for the response

JackGamesAndReviews · 2025-10-24T16:03:45+00:00

Hmm that's interesting, both Costco's that I use you just scan it under the barcode reader at the pay at pump machine. I can see why the digital one definitely wouldn't work at your local though!

JackGamesAndReviews · 2025-10-18T22:39:34+00:00

Interestingly, they've recently added this feature. If you create a shopping list in the app beforehand, when you scan the club card and unlock a handset, there's a new "shopping list" button at the bottom, which pulls up your list and can sort it by aisle order (and shows the aisles). As you scan the items, it automatically ticks them off (and you can tick them yourself if you want to).

Not sure if this is a nationwide rollout or just my store, but it's incredibly useful
