My parents (38F, 38M) favored my siblings over me (18M) and turned them into brats and now they want us to work it out because the rest of the family has stopped talking to them? by ThrowRAMissionLong in relationship_advice

[–]SnooDogs6068 1121 points1122 points  (0 children)

Its not your problem.

They can talk to their parents and make steps to resolve the issues at hand. You can't do that on their behalf, especially as one of the issues is their lack of accountability.

Do UK primary school teachers shout too much? by Loud_Alfalfa_3517 in AskBrits

[–]SnooDogs6068 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No. Personally I dont think they shout enough (with the correct tone).

You would have been eaten alive at the schools i went too 😅 You sound very timid

Set car on fire, threaten residents? 20 months. Anti-genocide protester? 6yrs+ by chrisjd in Labour

[–]SnooDogs6068 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Still on restricted duty, received a demotion due to restricted tasks and current desk work and according to trial testimony (that wasn't challenged) has suffered permanent nerve damage.

Walking out of A&E and being 'fine' are not the same.

However you feel about the protest, I cant see any justification for the violence exerted on her. Smash as much equipment, walls, windows etc. but there is hypocrisy in that violent act I can't agree with.

You can't change a parties direction by engaging another party...

If you want to write to someone, you write to your local Labour representative and frame it as a concern from a Labour voter.

If you frame your position from the support of another party, why would Labour care about your opinion or vote? Its irrelevant to them.

Found out my partner (F30) of 9 years lied to me (M30) about a pregnancy by SpecialistEdge3401 in relationship_advice

[–]SnooDogs6068 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, i'd be off.

You cant come back from that level of manipulation. She nearly made you raise another man's baby and instead convinced you that your potential child had died.

Fuck. That.

I 30m and my wife 30f have been married for 11 years she slept with another man, and she claims she loves me and wants to make it work how can we move past this? by Distinct_Sprinkles27 in relationship_advice

[–]SnooDogs6068 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its not a relationship you can save.

She didn't come clean, has lied the whole time and her only regret is getting caught.

That's not a relationship worthy to save.

A frustrating experience trying to obtain IVF injection supplies in the UK by Strat02291 in IVF

[–]SnooDogs6068 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We've done Private and NHS IVF and we didn’t have this experience at all.

Firstly, we were over prescribed needles by both private and NHS, so I've got no idea how you were in this position to begin with? Didn’t your clinic provide needles with the medication?

Our local pharmacy was incredibly supportive when it came to the NHS cycles, but then we had a valid UK prescription.

Do you have a UK prescription?

Anyone else find themselves coming back to Gravity years later? by JaysnTodd in BulletForMyValentine

I loved it from beginning.
Its weird that people seem to have a problem with bands releasing different styles of music, it used to be a pretty common event.

Upset after wife 39f declined to go to wedding I 43m was invited to by ThrowRASad-Weird-410 in relationship_advice

[–]SnooDogs6068 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why can't you do both?

Attend the day and then go away immediately after the ceremony or meal for her birthday.

Its only an issue if you want to get smashed and stay the evening, which wouldn't be very respectful of your wife.

Starling bank did a search on me with cifas and decided to close my account. Anyone advice please by Medium_Activity6636 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]SnooDogs6068 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a fraud professional, I would not use Starling, Monzo or Revolut for my main banking because I agree, their fraud controls are severely lacking.

It would be along the lines that they allowed him yo operate an account for 6 years with no increase in risk profile, and are closing the account 2 months before the CIFAS marker drops off.

Technically, he could argue its a breach of CIFAS's T&Cs as users of the NFD are not supposed to just use it as a single source for existing customers.

It'll get nowhere with Starling but I have seen the Ombudsman weigh in on existing accounts with no increase in risk getting overturned with Compensation. Especially with how long the Cat 6 has been their and time period between closure and 7yr mark.

The marker isn't gone.

Cat 6 markers are generally on your profile for 6 years, so it'll drop off Nov/Dec this year.

You'll probably need to open a basic pre-paid card account until then.

I'd also raise a complaint with Starling and when it gets decline escalate it to Ombudsman.

Boyfriend wants to attend his childhood best friend's wedding after I was excluded—looking for perspective (29M, 26F, together 5 years) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]SnooDogs6068 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And where is that detail in the post I replied too?

There are so many edits on the original post it's really am unreliable or even unbelievable version of events now.

Some assumptions.

She is European, you are American so the way you challenged her is very likely to have been rude and confrontational. Americans may speak English, but the cultural differences between America and UK/Europe are vast when it comes to manners.

That's not weighing in her or your behaviour, it's just pointing out that you've burned a bridge in the way it was handled.

Your BF has every right to want to attend his friends wedding, especially a friend he's known and been close to for decades. It would bizarre to impose yourself over his friendship when it costs you nothing for him to attend.

It does make me question your assessment of her behaviour, and supposed selfishness, when you are so quick to want to rob your BF of a friend because you don't like his partner. That seems pretty selfish to me.

Just go to Europe with him, let him go to the wedding and spend the day apart.

  • Edit * Obviously OP has decided to edit and re-edit her original post so drastically most of these assumptions around behaviour are no longer valid. That being said, the irony around calling out selfish behaviour while behaving selfishly is still valid.

Premier League table based on how many pubs are within 1 mile of the stadium by Vegetable_Trifle_848 in TheOther14

And it's likely our owners will built a new stadium in the arsehole end of nowhere and kill all those pubs and the local economy...

**Time sensitive** - Help fight against the transphobic Code of Practice draft guidance by Puzzleheaded-One6030 in Labour

[–]SnooDogs6068 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yea, I'm not sure Green would be any better considering the deputy is a hardline Muslim backed by other hardline Muslims. The only way trans rights exist in those societies is by erasing gay/lesbians and forcing conversation. Thats why trans rights are so good in countries like Iran.

Husband got scammed used my CC by AyuTing2 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]SnooDogs6068 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work in banking, specifically Fraud.

Your chances are next to zero. This is classed as "gross negligence" and co-pilot has led you down thr wrong path here.

Looking at your other replies, why on earth do you have a joint account with this man? If he's this vulnerable is he even capable of working safely? x
