My two year introductory deal ends on the 3rd of July. On the 10th of June, I informed youfibre that I wished to cancel my service as I was switching to a different provider. I had an email the following day, asking for my contact number, and nothing since then. No confirmation that my service would end, presumably on the 10th of July, no "sorry to see you go" emails, no offering to give me a better deal than the standard £29.99 a month I would have been paying. When I've left other providers in the past, I've had at least one of the above scenarios. Is this a sign of what the customer service is like from them? I've had no problem with my broadband, so I haven't had to contact them until now.

I'm just a bit concerned that they will keep on trying to take money from my account, as I had an email today saying that my next payment is due, and will be taken from my account on the 5th of July, stating the same monthly amount as the last two years.

In 2006, I experienced two epileptic seizures, and was tried on various medications afterwards. One of them, carbamazepine, was discontinued after I experienced an inability to sweat, but it wasn't one of the known side effects. About a year or two later, I realised I had a couple of bald patches on my scalp, which led to me losing almost all of the hair on the top of my head, leaving me with a narrow fringe, as well as a couple of coin sized bald patches on the back of my head. However, the inability to sweat normally has continued to this day but only on my head. My back, armpits, etc are all able to produce sweat normally, while I produce very little on my head.

Is the hypohidrosis likely to be connected to my later alopecia areata?

Could one or both be related to my epilepsy medication?

Has anyone else had a similar experience with similar medicines?

Previously, I had hyperhidrosis, and my father and older brother both had/have normal hair, with just slightly receding hairlines.

My brother follows a vegan diet, and has been in hospital for three weeks, but has been transferred to a different ward a couple of days ago. One of the nurses on this ward has apparently decided that he is not eligible to have vegan food supplied to him. He has been given cheese and tuna in different meals already.

Is anybody able to tell me his rights in this situation?

I'd like to think that if I need to go into hospital I'd not be given meat or dairy to eat.
