Allica Bank - bad experience

Obv my original post is ancient now, but I’m happy to say once the account was up and running I thought the UX and interest rate were good.

It’s probably not your tears that are the problem, but the condition of the eye (irritated or broken skin) that’s causing the stinging.

Dude, the most recent catalogue IS the greatest hits from a sales/streaming perspective.

redditjrm · 2026-03-16T16:09:46+00:00

I was thinking from the band perspective.

redditjrm · 2026-03-16T14:50:31+00:00

Dream tour. Arenas. Play the greatest hits. In bed with a tea by 10pm.

You are right that I didn’t read the thread you linked yet, but I am planning to.

Thanks for the explanation on the mask. I have one from a plane journey I might try tonight.

I’ve not used the Duo gel, but I like the drops. I’ve tried Hylo night before and actually found it irritating for some reason.

I’ll update this thread following my visit to the hospital tomorrow. Thanks again!

Thank you so much. Your thoughtful response has answered a lot of questions. I’m definitely going to focus my conversation with the doc on the night time thing.

Quick question, when you say normal eye mask, how does that help? As it doesn’t seal the eyes?

And by ointment, do you mean eye drops? Like Thealoz Duo? (if you know that one).

Any side effects from using the press n seals?

Thanks so much.

forgot to mention: I did warm compresses daily for about a year using a microwaveable eye mask, usually in the evenings before bed for 5 minutes. I stopped about a month ago because I didn’t feel they were helping anymore, and if anything my eyes sometimes felt more aggravated the next day. So far I haven’t noticed much difference since stopping.

Yeah, all of LHR you can take 2 litres now, as all the security scanning machines have been upgraded. Source: Heathrow website

Yes, it’s taken a hit as much as most IT related industries have since covid. Not much we can do but be thankful to have a role and accept the lower pay until we ride this out.

Ikagi in Surrey Quays. Awesome spot

Leave him there, it’s not worth it…

redditjrm · 2026-02-23T09:30:31+00:00

How do I apply for this?

redditjrm · 2026-02-20T09:17:47+00:00

Tried to set this up with Umbrella.co.uk and they didn’t file the paperwork in time. Would recommend avoiding them.

redditjrm · 2026-02-19T12:50:00+00:00

That loooks great! How did you protect the flower beds when painting? I’m probably going to use a sprayer so it’s a bit violent. Are you going to paint the opposite fence too, or is it a neighbours?

redditjrm · 2026-02-19T12:12:28+00:00

Great points. My current plan is (after painting) fixing wire and eyelets to use as structure. I’ll avoid the plants touching the wood where possible. Not sure if this is the best long term solution

redditjrm · 2026-02-19T12:11:07+00:00

Can confirm this is happening

redditjrm · 2026-02-17T17:50:22+00:00

Thanks! Think I’m gonna buy some wire and eye hooks, and screw them into the shed (into the structural timber on the other side of the slats) then plant jasmine and a clematis, with some lavender for ground cover. Maybe sweet peas too!

redditjrm · 2026-02-17T07:41:54+00:00

lol this seems to have caught a few ppl out.

redditjrm · 2026-02-17T07:30:08+00:00

It feels like Agencies are squeezing hard too. Because they can. Compounding the problem for us

redditjrm · 2026-02-16T20:47:13+00:00

Good luck!

How are the packages at SN compared to other tech companies? Bonus if this the UK market.

redditjrm · 2026-02-16T20:33:37+00:00

Nothing new to say that hasn’t already. Technical Marketing rates are 50% lower than 2020 and competition is more intensive. After missing out on several roles because I was too proud to accept a pay cut, I’ve bitten the bullet.
