BT apparently misgendered Isla, and she went to the papers about it:

'She said: “I have been asking them to change my name for almost a year but I keep getting letters with my dead name on it.

“I sent proof of my gender identity but it hasn’t made a difference. I’m sick of being treated like a second class citizen.”

BT apologised for the mix-up and offered Bryson £140. But she said: “It’s had a seriously emotional effect on me. They’ve tried to buy me off but I said I wanted £5,000 in compensation.”'

And now he wants a £1000 for an interview about the "horrific transphobia" and breaches of his human rights 🤨

Please remind us what this man did to end up in prison, someone…

And Isla can also fuck off to the far side of fuck etc

ThatsSubOptimal · 31/01/2023 22:43

Will attend court with his dick out essentially, but needs paying off because someone recognised him as a male.

Fucking grifter.

They assigned you an imaginary cohabiting boyfriend without your consent?

That’s surely worth £140 compo!

Double rapist complains that he is being treated like a second hand citizen because BT use his former name that he supplied them with and BT offer compensation?

Christ on a bike, the world has gone mad.

MrsDanversGlidesAgain · 31/01/2023 21:36

Just a couple of weeks ago I had a phone call with an agent. The call was followed by an email (from the same person). He addressed me by a clearly male name even though he had just spoken to me on the phone and my voice is clearly female

Oh yeah forgot that one, which I've also had. Bumping my claim up now.

Boiledbeetle · 31/01/2023 16:59

He was putting his all into that pretending lark wasn't he? Almost as if he wasnt pretending! Because if we are using effort as a measure of transness he's definitely a transwoman

Oooooh I like this, Sky have been sending letters to MR TitsInAbsentia for about 12 years, I never have been, never wanted to be and never will be a MR so I must take offence at this mis labelling and being action immediately!

I’m getting the same from British Gas - I’ll log my complaint of hurt feelings today!

His legal team are telling him what to do to get off of the charges (which failed) and what to do to get an easier time in prison (by going to a women's prison).

Yes, exactly. Everyone knew it, but the courts had to pretend to believe the whole chrade.

Creepy, what's the character?

Or rather to provide "proof" that he was "living as a woman" to court if there was a newspaper article about how difficult his transition was.

I think this was all part of the plan to get off of the rape charges.

Ah, of course. I hadn't connected the 'utility bill' requirement with the proof needed to change sex. But there it is.

I assume that's in large part to hide the tattoos, it does look weird and dodgy.

Show quote history

Again it's another stage-managed thing to try to gain sympathy in the court. He's covering up his tattoos.

His legal team are telling him what to do to get off of the charges (which failed) and what to do to get an easier time in prison (by going to a women's prison).

The man is using all the loopholes to pretend to be trans. Is he interested in passing? No, because he's not trans. He's doing what he needs to do for the legal system to believe him.

No doubt this whole trans shtick will disappear when it all fails and he is definitely put in a men's prison.

Noticed how he always wears his hair to cover his face. Not sure why that bothers me.

I like to think he turned round too fast and the wig glue didn't hold.

I've had my (very British) surname misspelled
I've been addressed in work documents as 'Dear Sir' - hell, I've been called 'Sir' F2F (I have short hair) when I was buying the Times because 'it's usually men who buy the Times.' 🤔
I've been called Mrs when I'm not.
I've talked to overseas colleages who called me by my surname because the convention in their country is surname then first name so they assumed my surname was my first name

Can I have my thousands for hurtyfeelz plz?

My husband also had his British name misspelled and mispronounced many many times.
I’ve been addressed by the wrong name more than once (mostly emails and letters).

Oh fantastic!

Anyone else here have their foreign name misspelled constantly?

Or have it assumed that they took their partner's surname or wish to disclose their marital status?

I'd be happy with £140 for every time that happened, tbh. I'd be quids in

Bloody car dealer I bought from used the male equivalent of my name and changed me to Mr because I couldn't possibly be the one buying the car...

All the fecking time and my ego has survived completely unscathed.

Mis-spelled and mispronounced and mines a not exactly unknown Irish name. There are two relatively famous people with the same name.

Anyway, if Adam has had the £140, they ought to be told that they can keep a penny and put the rest toward the criminal injuries compensation of his two victims.
