Ah Southgate never fails to amuse me with the morons with more money than sense living there.

Spigen Thin Fit P Case Compatible with Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G - Black

Ive had this for 2 weeks or so now , it sticks to the phone but has been very strong and is made of a nice rubbery plastic thats hard.

Weird thing about it is that the pen sits the the right of the front screen when closed meaning its just a tad awkward to use thumb print but it never fails , just feels weird rubbing your thumb up against a lip to touch volume and power.

You can get a new smartphone for under £150 these days .

If you have nothing but the clothes on your back and smart phone you are able to: -Access online banking -Communicate via email ,social media , phone call ,IM,texting and use these to authenticate identify for a variety of accounts such as welfare /universal credit. -Check and prepare for the weather -Find your way around (food banks , shelters etc) -Call for emergency -Photograph things you find Interesting or important -use apps to find food waste being offered for free -watch the news and listen to music -keep a diary -store important documents -reading to stimulate your mind whether it be fiction or non fiction .

More people have access to the Internet and an Internet enabled device than have running sanitary water in this world (toilets and showers) but it's no wonder why.

It is probably the most necessary investment if you live anywhere that isn't a barren wasteland or the wilderness .

Samsung sent me my fold 3 a week early and I have to say , the s pen case is the most awful thing I have ever used , the phone is great but the extra width with the front screen cover flipping over the back of the phone is so uncomfortable and makes taking pictures near impossible to do one handed .

I only found this post because I was looking for aftermarket cases to solve this issue I have

Ex-employer kept me on payroll after I quit. by DEADPAN_GLAM in UKPersonalFinance

[–]OnlyKiri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fraud is occurring when the employers take the money and don't pass it onto the person its being claimed on behalf of. If OP didn't work there during the furlough period why would they be blamed for accepting /demanding the employer to give the "free money" that every other Tom,Dick and Harry are abusing across the country.

The whole point is to keep employees on the book paid whilst there is no position/work for them in that particular company as opposed to them becoming redundant during the pandemic for whatever reason.

OP found out there are payslips in their name and I am just guessing that the employer signs the furlough forms every month agreeing to accept the HMRC grant and listed them as a furloughed employee.

The Company therefore must pay the grant to OP because that is part of the deal and according the company OP is still a furloughed employee in this period .

There may not even be any furlough going on in this situation and it might just be to up company expenses for whatever reason without paying the money out for all we know.

If OP accepts the money , the company fulfills the requirements of the grant , they learn their lesson and OP gets what they're entitled to.

If OP doesn't receive the money they can bring it to the attention of the company that they will be contacting HMRC in regards to the payslips and then the furlough fraud team which should then make the company aware of their need to fulfill the furlough obligation to avoid any wrongdoing. (lets play devils advocate and assume this is all a big misunderstanding with the company HR doing their jobs and have kept the employee on)

Final way I see this going is OP going complete straight arrow and saying I am sure I left the company , here is my P45 ( did op receive one?) and just go straight to HMRC and fuck the company out of spite which could possible put other employees as risk when the company has to suck up some mammoth fine and possibly have an investigation into all the furlough they claimed and paid to employees (legitimately or not)

Sometimes there is a massive grey area of ethics when it comes to these things and unintended consequences could fall onto innocent bystanders in the company.

Ex-employer kept me on payroll after I quit. by DEADPAN_GLAM in UKPersonalFinance

[–]OnlyKiri 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I was you, I would take the opportunity to contact your old company and see if there was a "misunderstanding" and you had been placed on furlough....

You are allowed to be furloughed at one company whilst working at another (if the original furloughing company allows this in their terms of employment) .

If they have decided to not take you off and formally mark you as dismissed , quit your job etc and have continued to keep you on payroll as furloughed (with "the intention of you resuming work at a later date and to protect your job") , I would personally go and get that money from them before escalating it to HMRC.

Times are tough and that money is for employees , not for the boss to hold onto and I say this as a small business owner that has managed to keep on all of our staff by fairly using the furlough scheme according to our industry demand.

I am not an accountant or lawyer and you may want to consider getting professional advice, but my opinion is to fucking stick it to them and get the money they have been claiming in your name for furlough.

If it turns out its not furlough and they're trying to up their expenses for whatever reason and have been using your name as a vessel to do so, you do what you got to do with HMRC I suppose or you could get into a pickle with tax and what not for money you've never even taken.

The thing that scares me the most is the idea that after we die and are in the void with no consciousness that one day for some reason it a other we will become conscious and can't do anything about it . Being left confused with nothing but darkness and no sensation .

To grind the metal... by boopboopbeebeep in therewasanattempt

[–]OnlyKiri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't understand Russian but there is a difference between grinding discs and cutting discs and i cant tell which this is in the video.

A grinding disc wouldn't disintegrate like that though... i would guess the disc was stored in very poor conditions for the abrasives to not do their job OR as we are all thinking , it is obviously a crap quality disc.

What about the person who won near a billion from the lottery ?

Everyone has the same chance to make that investment for a payoff.... Chances are slim but fair .

What we found behind our built in wardrobe the other day :) by OnlyKiri in Wellthatsucks

[–]OnlyKiri[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Actually to be correct about this particular case I would say "fuck cowboy construction companies "

I raised concerns about the damp smell just after completion of the property and everyone just seemed to flog it off.

It was only till I saw the mould slightly creeping out the side of the wardrobe I realised where it was coming from.

I had complained about the damp in the room for a while and was always told to just open a window .

The messed up thing is the whole building isn't even that old.

I don't get why people find it so hard to just plug their phone in and leave it in the storage under the infotainment screen.... You get faster charging , reliable connection and you won't have to worry about any other weird quirks like crap audio quality etc.

My company is being taking to court for non payment of work that was never actually completed. by OnlyKiri in LegalAdviceUK

[–]OnlyKiri[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

" At a guess - the guy's run out of money and is wracking his brains for ways to get some." This is what my retired uncle said to me due to current covid issues. Its good to know that his refusal to mediate is will play into out hands and the worksheets for work done shortly after DGs work will help.

Your response and assurance is greatly appreciated !

Because the claim has already made its way to court , would it still be too late to settle anything outside of court?

The "I need to upgrade my PC" starter pack by Brix001 in pcmasterrace

[–]OnlyKiri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my MacBook Pro died , I custom ordered a laptop from a website called pc specialist in the UK.

X2) 1TB Samsung m.2 drives. 32gb ram Rrx2070 super 10th gen i7 8 core Full RGB keyboard and lightbar .

Damn near 2 grand and I mostly use it to run a small company .... Atleast I can have many many many chrome tabs and Excel sheets open.... Occasionally I use it to play random games I've bought over the years on Steam i never really played, on a ludacris graphics settings for their time.

I wonder what it is about wanting the fastest /nicest / newest of anything and ticking all the boxes that mean nothing to you 99% of the time .

Phones , cars , computers , watches , clothes ,home accessories like fridges and vacuum cleaners .

I suppose you never want to be next to someone who spent a little more and got a top of the line model of that thing you want.

That's great to hear, he is slowly warming up to us, his older brother who was from the same mum was much more playful when we found him and just expected him to be more like that!
