So fed up of petty annoyances.
I decided to switch my current account to the #Nationwide A supposedly smooth procedure using an automated service.
It’s supposed to take place on the 9th but I still haven’t received a card. Contacted the ‘new’ company today, was told the card was requested on the 1st and should take 5 working days to arrive. Then the person corrected themselves and said 10 working days.
Why then did they offer a switch date of the 9th if a card can’t be processed by that date? Do they assume customers will just put up with bad/incompetent/inept service? Why wouldn’t I want my card so that my banking needs can be continuously serviced?
Is this just me…? (Don’t answer that question, I’ll probably be angry…)
Why is every little task such a pain…? Nothing goes smoothly these days. GAH!

A National-Scale Database Of Groundwater Level Data For Switzerland

H/T @RaoulCollenteur | Groundwater Hydrologist at Collenteur HydroConsult GmbH
“Looking for a ready-to-use FAIR dataset with groundwater levels, signatures, and meteorological drivers to test new models and analysis methods to learn from groundwater level data? Why not try [the authors’] new Swiss Groundwater Database with almost 1,000 piezometers in diverse climatological and hydrogeological settings within Switzerland? 💡
💧 Long groundwater level time series with frequent measurements
💧 Meteorological drivers included
💧Unique dataset in terms of hydrogeological data in an alpine setting
… [They] hope [that they] can develop the database in the future with other variables (i.e., groundwater temperature, spring discharge, etc.) and welcome additions and collaborations to make this happen. 🌊…”

“Groundwater is a vital component of the global supply of freshwater, playing a critical role for human populations, agriculture, and ecosystems. Due to the complex interactions between groundwater, surface water, climate, and human activity, these systems are frequently studied using advanced data analysis and modeling techniques. The effectiveness of these methods is generally enhanced by the availability and quality of data. In Switzerland, the focus area of this study, groundwater data is fragmented and lacks a standardized nationwide compilation. Consequently, the process of conducting nationwide studies with substantial sample sizes is both resource-intensive and time-consuming. In this paper, [they] introduce the Swiss Groundwater Database, a comprehensive compilation of groundwater time series and associated metadata throughout Switzerland. The current database consists of groundwater level data from 985 monitoring wells, which were completed with additional static and time-varying variables. The environmental characteristics and climate indices were compiled and determined for each monitoring well. The database is designed to facilitate and support large-sample hydrological research related to groundwater in Switzerland and beyond…”

If you're a #Nationwide bank customer / member in the UK you might want to have a look at this for our current voting options:
https://www.theguardian.com/business/2026/apr/27/nationwide-first-customer-on-board-nearly-25-yearsLooks like the existing board doesn't want him to join and set the automatic vote to be against him.. suspicious maybe? 🤔

Last year, #ICE began detaining #immigrants in #courthouse hallways across the country, sometimes moments after pleading their cases. The move raised alarm among attorneys & advocates who said the practice was turning #immigration courts from places of #DueProcess into zones of fear & punishing people who were following the rules.

Anybody else bank with Nationwide and been invited to vote for the new board members?
I'm not sure what to make of James Sherwin-Smith.
The existing board are strongly recommended voting against him.
My first thought was that it reminds me of when the far right try to get someone onto the board of the National Trust.
But I can't find any far right connections, and on the face of it he seems to be a well qualified candidate.
Thoughts?

Ten years later, #ErinHawley, 44, is now at the center of one of the country’s most heated cultural battles about #BodilyAutonomy, #GenderRoles & #abortion. On Tues, for the first time since the overturning of #RoeVWade, #SCOTUS considered a case involving #nationwide limits on #abortion #access. And Ms. Hawley was the woman standing before the justices, arguing to sharply curtail access to the #AbortionPill.

The #FDA does not have to follow the advice of its advisers, but a rejection of the #OTC application… would be awkward for an admin that has repeatedly pledged to protect #ReproductiveRights following the #SupremeCourt’s overturning of #RoeVWade, which guaranteed the #nationwide #right to #abortion.
