@BethanyBlack "Well done, you've moved up to Poor" is the most spectacular inadvertent description of social mobility right now. If it was in a Black Mirror episode we'd rinse it for being too heavy handed a satire.

@stavvers right? It’s the most wonderfully ludicrous thing I’ve ever seen

@BethanyBlack @stavvers wait, that isn’t some sort of satire???

@Colman @BethanyBlack Nah, it's exactly what Bethany said, it's literally the kind of automated email they send you when your credit rating improves (I was very proud to get "Congrats you're average!" once)

@BethanyBlack @Colman I still can't work out how to unsubscribe, I tried a credit check once and they just keep emailing me and you have to use some sort of arcane login to unsubscribe.

@stavvers @BethanyBlack straight out of the intro to a Future Shock. Haven’t seen it here (IE), but maybe I just missed it.

@BethanyBlack @Colman @stavvers general recommendation with arcane unsubscribe flows is to see if you can send a GDPR request by email

@stavvers @BethanyBlack @Colman Couldn’t figure it out either, emailed the CEO to complain and they deleted my account a couple of days later.
