TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Yacht-a-Dot. With 85-minute skill donation. For everyone who's simply dotting about Alexa. Hey guys, welcome here.

Today we are going to get a skill called Crisis UK. Crisis is a homeless charity here in the UK, and skills like this that make it easy to find out about charities and make donations are really, really helpful. Alexa, open Crisis UK. Welcome.

Are you interested in learning about the work the charity Crisis does, or would you like to make a donation? Learn. Crisis is the national charity for people experiencing homelessness. Crisis helps people directly out of homelessness and campaigns for the changes needed to solve it altogether.

Do you want to make a donation or exit? Make a donation. Please take the amount you would like to donate. We only exit donations in whole pounds.

Five pounds. Great. You'll be donating five pounds to Crisis UK using Amazon Pay and your default payment method. Do you want to complete your donation?

Yes. Yes. Yes, I do. Sorry, something went wrong.

Please try again. There was an internal server error. You can come back at any time by saying, let's open Crisis UK. Yikes, I hope they know about that.

Was that Joe Brand or someone? It's a bit of a celeb anyway, I think. Yeah, yikes. And going for that, you know, more information option gave you about a five second bit of information.

So that could have just been in the main intro, don't you think? Really scant skill there and a bit broken. Yikes. Crisis UK.

Hopefully there will be ones associated with your favourite charities too. And I don't know what Amazon Pay does about gift aid here in the UK. If you're a taxpayer, then any charitable donation that you make, you can claim, they can claim the tax back on as well. But you do need to fill out a form, either paper or digital, of some form.

Hmm. Okay, guys, sorry about that. I hope it's not going to be broken for long. This is Robin signing off and we'll speak again tomorrow.
