Hello, I don't have a guide dog, but uber's customer service has always been very good for me. At university, I live in a large block of accommodation so it has a large car park, which is difficult for a totally-blind person to negotiate. For this reason, I just...don't; I ask the driver to come

Hi I love tunein premium, because it's very simple to get nfl/nba/ncaa games on, which is often a pain in the UK. If you can find a discount code (usually very easy), it's only $40 as well, so really good value compared to the nfl and nba's ridiculously-priced subscriptions.
