Ocado boycott after support of Primesight actionhttp://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3376466-ocado-boycott-after-support-of-primesight-action

Following on from my previous thread that became full Smile

I'll be making my first Waitrose order today, or maybe going back to Tesco. Will definitely give Waitrose a go though and have placed a Christmas order already.

I'm wondering if Millie has been secretly peak transed by all of this. It is just her job after all...and no I'm not Millie.

Maybe, I posted in the wrong thread too, I meant to post on the Mermaids thread, but it applies here.

Confused
LurkingWaspi · 10/10/2018 19:50

Dunno Flora, I'm confused, but thanks any way. Smile
I'll lie down in a darkened room for a while, it's been a long day in the Gulag.

FloraHiggins · 10/10/2018 19:41

I may have got this wrong but is the confusion because captain wrote “It’s in no way hate speach to say TWAW” when perhaps she meant to say it’s not hate speech to say trans women aren’t women? Apologies if that’s not the issue at all!

LurkingWaspi · 10/10/2018 19:29

It's not a perspective, it's what happen
Lots of stuff has happened, put me on the same page as yourself .

I have nothing I need to explain.

It's your intervention ( in bold below) that I said I was not sure of.

Perhaps YOU would care to explain how, in YOUR words

The word woman being used by women caused the whole issue

As I don't know what you mean.

CaptainKirkssparetupee · 10/10/2018 19:14

An interesting perspective Captain. Thank you

It's not a perspective, it's what happen.

Unless you can explain another interpretation that is the only one i've seen unfolding.

LurkingWaspi · 10/10/2018 19:11

An interesting perspective Captain. Thank you .

CaptainKirkssparetupee · 10/10/2018 18:54

The word woman being used by women caused the whole issue.

LurkingWaspi · 10/10/2018 18:53

Eh? CaptainKirkssparetupee
I am missing your point here I think.
I might have to change my specs.

No one here is saying that using the phrase "TWAW" is hate speech.AFAIK

Although, I think you may have difficulty getting Ashers Bakery N.I. to bake you a cake with such wording.

You then could review on Trustpilot

CaptainKirkssparetupee · 10/10/2018 18:22

Let not remember what was cleared up today in the house of lords:

Failure to share someone’s belief is not the same as mocking or disdaining it. Human Righs Article 9 supports this right.
It's in no way hate speach to say TWAW.

Ereshkigal · 10/10/2018 18:18

Report them. They're in breach for only having political views.

Ali1cedowntherabbithole · 10/10/2018 18:11

I note that the reviews which just say something like 'thanks for being inclusive' still stand!?

I'm guessing Ocado haven't bothered to ask for those to be expanded upon.

Bless them. Which reviews are from actual customers do they think?

Insertwitticismhere · 10/10/2018 17:46

Rewritten mine too explaining that ignoring my request to remove details was a customer service issue for me.

I note that the reviews which just say something like 'thanks for being inclusive' still stand!?

The bit I don't get is that if we are all so wrong why go to such lengths? My review said nothing at all offensive simply that I'd come to the conclusion that shopping with Ocado was no longer in line with my values.

Ali1cedowntherabbithole · 10/10/2018 13:30

Thanks Lurking

" Down with this sort of thing" indeed Grin

montenuit · 10/10/2018 13:15

my smart pass is paid up until mid Feb... if i cancel do they refund any of it?

LurkingWaspi · 10/10/2018 12:40

I re wrote mine ( Trustpilot), based on the failure of Ocado's customer services, to resolve my complaint about an offensive public tweet, which was offensive to me as a female customer. I detailed customer services failure to respond within time limits and issue public apology for public offence caused to me as a female customer.

I linked it to my already existing concerns, re some Ocado drivers having harassed women customers as reported in the media, earlier in the year.

I included an extract from the email Ocado had sent me about being " inadvertently involved" in what was, to me, a very deliberate and insulting tweet.

It's still awaiting moderation. No surprise there. That's what we get for being honest.

We could all just have lied and said: how fecking thin their ham was and how mushy were the apples.Grin

If it's not put up after moderation, then I'm moving on to reviewing Trustpilot.

Ali1cedowntherabbithole · 10/10/2018 11:48

The thought police have just caught up with me and I seem to have an opportunity to extend my previous comments. Grin

Can I ask how everyone else has handled this? I don’t want to lie and say the service was crap, although I note there seems to be a few reviews now along those lines. I want to shout from the rooftops though about their attitude to their customer base.

Trinity333 · 10/10/2018 07:56

uk.trustpilot.com/review/trustpilot.com Yes looks like it’s possible to review and comment on them.

LurkingWaspi · 10/10/2018 07:56

Although AF also seems to be a number of other "important" people.

LurkingWaspi · 10/10/2018 07:52

It is possible to review Trustpilot on Trustpilot.
Here is an interesting review bottom left of the link.
See: Andreas Feichtner.......an interesting name.
He reminds me of a certain Dr Doxtor .

Is it possible to review trustpilot on trustpilot?

SonicVersusGynaephobia · 10/10/2018 07:25

I have never used Ocado, so I can't help add to the numbers. I find it so pathetic that they are trying to do individual apologies (well, sorry you were offended) so they don't upset a bunch of TRAs who will never spend money in Ocado anyway.

Mumfun · 09/10/2018 23:21

I dont trust TrustPilot at all

WorkingItOutAsIGo · 09/10/2018 23:08

I did complain today about all the TRA reviews that didn’t mention anything to do with product or service on TrustPilot so hopefully if they take one set down they will take the others too.
