If "just cooling down after coming out of oven" then that's zero rated too, lot of case law as to when its "cooling down" but basically if you keep the thing warm using lights/heaters then its 20%, if its cooling down on a table then it's 0%.

@Hyundai_UK car off road for 2 months, dealer still awaiting parts, car less than 1yr old. Dealer not interested, Hyundai Finance not interested, car is dangerous (no speedo, car in video is moving), can Hyundai on X help move this forwards?

@stwater quite sneaky forcing customers to call to setup a direct debit, function to setup online has been removed. Why? So that your call handlers can up your monthly payment by nearly double!

@AskEquiniti I need to make a complaint/speak to someone about your terrible beareavement service which has zero empathy and offers no assistance to those acting as exectors. Refused to take my complaint over the telephone, useless organisation.

Hearing reports of lots of scam HMRC emails asking you to "click here" to verify your recently submitted VAT return. Phishing emails are always being sent but hearing a lot of different variations in last few days, so just remember never click a link in any email.

@easyJet BHX-EDI 12.10, delayed by 1hr, gate 13 showing as open but no staff at gate, no announcements, app says departure will be 12.35, doubt it as it's 12.30 now, Comms let you down every time there is a delay or problem.
@easyJet your new app, I can't download passes to the app (like you could in old app), it only lets me download to Google wallet, I don't use Google wallet nor want to use it. Is this a new app glitch or a permanent feature? Thx.

Synth Riders is a proper workout if you set it to 360 mode (the balls come at you from front, side, above, below and behind).

Was considering these guys a few years back, never got a straight answer about fees, the 5% fees tucked deep into the 30+ page contract, glad I passed on this.

@LNRailway 17.46 Eus-Crewe, clearly delayed but no announcements at Euston, not showing as delayed on board but is showing on NR app. Information is key to keeping passengers informed...will this train run or will you cancel it like you did on Tuesday (the 17.46), thanks.

🧵1/8 Lycamobile, the telecoms giant and Tory donor, has been convicted in France of an “elaborate money laundering system” that was first exposed by our i-team at @BuzzFeedNews. Former CEO Chris Tooley & another executive have been jailed for VAT fraud. lemonde.fr/economie/article/…
