So, Student Loan Company, you continue to charge interest at 7.9% on outstanding balances whilst not allowing folk to pay off their balance due to 'system issues' which have been going on for over a week. Will you do the decent thing and waive the interest you are still charging?

A city seldom sees the magnitude and tragedy last week's fire. Over 90 Charlotte firefighters spent hours controlling a 5-alarm fire at a construction site. The radio communication you’ll hear in this video only partially relays the dramatic intensity of Thursday, May 18, 2023.

What is going on with @firstdirect ? Unable to log on, and call centre unable to help. Massive system crash? Looks like it.
"Call back in 24 hrs" I was told.
Not great service @firstdirecthelp

Staying warm this Winter Solstice means practicing fire safety. Space heaters, wood stoves and fireplaces are all great ideas until an accident happens. Keep at least one metre distance between your heat source and anything that will burn. #HolidayFireSafety
