@IzziFranson A303 in Somerset looked grim westbound. No idea about the M4. Bon voyage! 7:33 AM Jun 2nd via Twitter for Android in reply to IzziFranson

@nigenet @AskLloydsTSB Branch just called thinking we wanted to register, for the first time, for phone banking. Words fail me. 7:47 AM Jun 1st via web in reply to nigenet

Ha. Local @AskLloydsTSB couldn't even put us on hold competently. They actually hung up on us. 7:44 AM Jun 1st via web
Will keep tweeting about @AskLloydsTSB while we're on hold. Will try to be calm - no swearing or caps lock. But actually very very angry. 7:40 AM Jun 1st via web
Social media team at @AskLloydsTSB promised to escalate our complaint but we've had no response other than this futile phone call. 7:39 AM Jun 1st via web
Local @AskLloydsTSB branch called us to deal with our complaint. But had no clue what complaint was about. Now been 25 minutes on hold. 7:38 AM Jun 1st via web
