"Our current wait time is over 60 minutes". Thanks, #RoyalMail - not only is my redirection service not redirecting, but the only way to contact you is via the phone (which is very tricky to find & apparently will waste over an hour of my life) and all I want is a refund for the service you have failed to deliver.
Also I'm on day 3 of a migrainey headache, so I'm not in the best of moods either. Obviously this isn't the fault of the telephone operator so I will be lovely, but inside I'm GRRR!
Additionally #Tesco never showed up last night so I have to go out on an hour round trip (they live in the middle of nowhere!) to pick up supplies for the week I'm here. It wouldn't be so bad but they said they 'rang and rang' the landline, but the last incoming call was on the 8th August (I checked when it was an hour late) so they're lying bastards as well.
It has... not been smooth sailing. At least the kittens are soft and adorable. That is a lot of comfort. 🐱
@abeorch yeah catima is only handling barcode-based cards, e.g. shop loyalty cards.
I can't see any FOSS solution to replacing google wallet sadly :/
... I use physical payment cards most of the time, would like to use case more though, used to be almost cash-only, but card is so easy!

#UK / Co-op stops sourcing from Israel over human rights violations
The Co-op Group, a member-owned retailer operating over 2,300 UK food stores, announced it will cease sourcing products from 17 countries including Israel due to "internationally recognised" human rights abuses and violations of international law. The retailer will stop selling Israeli carrots this month as part of its commitment to no longer stock Israeli goods. The decision follows a board review of the Co-op's role "in building peace" and reflects member voices.
Other countries on the prohibited list include Russia, Mali, Afghanistan, Belarus, Iran, Libya and Syria. This contrasts with other UK retailers like #Tesco, which continues sourcing from #Israel while avoiding Israeli settlements in occupied Palestinian territories.
