Wow! That was quick - it took under 24 hours to fill the course. Thanks to all for sharing. We will look into options for running other instances of the course.

So, I think I've either broken @PhETsims amazing Circuit Construction Kit or there is something else I don't understand about electrical currents. I'm worried by the different current flows in the parallel wires.

@ruskin147 – Rory, do you have any idea how we can stop big technology companies from designing their customer support to be so deliberately bad that people give up? Final thought: @Uber, you need to be warned of the danger being done to your brand by @ubereats_uk. 12/12.

The UberEats team make it really difficult to leave (impossible in my case, because of the outstanding balance they claim to have refunded)! Improvements to @Uber_Support 5: If someone wants to leave you and never hear from you again, then let them go. 11/12.

The website makes it almost impossible to contact support; you can only raise a problem via the App. However, it let me make the fatal booking via website! Improvements to @Uber_Support 4: Make sure that the Web has the full customer support experience. 10/12.

The responses which come reply often reply without having read the message, and never have read the previous 10, 20, now 60+ messages. Improvements to @Uber_Support 3: Read all the details of a case before responding. 9/12.

If you’re persistent you reach call UberEats via the main Uber support phone line, but they do not have the power to resolve anything and cannot escalate a problem. Improvements to @Uber_Support 2: Make it easy to contact you via phone. 8/12.
