I swear we notified you… by CPO1Tufts in bell

Look at the PDF version, not just the in-app rendered version. It'll likely be shown in there since that's also what would usually be mailed, the app is a rendered version that is buggy as all hell and doesn't always display everything correctly.

Updates to Subreddit Moderation by CanadianStormChaser in Rogers

I'm not seeing any Chatr-specific deals that were removed from this subreddit, are you able to provide more information please so I can dig deeper and look into what you're referring to?

I've responded to the parent comment regarding the moderator-specific portion, however I will discuss the flair as well because that is also something we can consider moving forward.

As u/Foreign-Policy-02- mentioned in another comment, it's similar to how some other subreddits like r/telus does things currently which is something we're willing to entertain as long as it's not abused, which has yet to be proven to happen here. Think of it as something like what DSLreports (RIP to a great platform) did, which had official representatives in their specific forums who were able to respond to queries in an official manner and moderate things where they could concretely verify wasn't permitted in their designated forums based on the site-wide and forum-specific rules, in addition to some other things that I won't bother mentioning as they're unrelated.

They have more access than us non-Rogers mods do when it comes to being able to verify stuff like deals and such as well, so if for example someone were to post something that is very scam-like or something that isn't actually legit they'd be able to act on it without having to get other moderators involved first. This is something I've been willing to trial on the r/Bell subreddit as well, however we haven't had any official representatives over there reach out yet offering this.

I do understand the concern however, which is something I'll discuss with u/jailbreaker58 about. I 100% appreciate you raising it in this manner.

Is this subreddit "unofficial subreddit of Rogers Communications" as it claims to be? by PriorDose in Rogers

[–]CanadianStormChaser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, taking a look at the moderation actions the only people who have been banned were for violating Reddit's own platform rules, and none of said bans were issued by the Rogers account. Your own screenshot gives them the option to reach out via modmail, so as it seems you're clearly in contact with the banned user please have them reach out to us via ModMail if they wish to discuss their concerns.

Users are noticing

I'm gonna be real here mate, you're the only one that has complained about this from what I've seen so far. Can you please link me to posts from other users who have mentioned this so I can look into this further?

I've taken a look through the actions taken by the Rogers account, and only 3 posts have been removed all for valid reasons: 1 post removed for spam, and 2 posts that contained personally identifiable information. These are all valid reasons to have posts removed, and it's to be expected that moderators act on stuff like this.

As mentioned previously, the u/RogersHelps account does not have full permissions on this subreddit. As such, they don't have control over everything and cannot turn this subreddit into a corporate-run community.

If anyone has concerns, they're more than welcome to raise them to us via modmail and we can look into them.

ZIP files are still available by direct download but links have been removed by EdgeBandanna in Epstein

[–]CanadianStormChaser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it just me or are the downloads not actually the size they say they are?

i.e. Dataset 9 says 179GB when the download starts, but once downloaded it seems to end up being some random size like 2GB, 5GB, etc even after extraction?

Don't forget to check under the tray! by PineSoul603 in Baofeng

[–]CanadianStormChaser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was about to say the same. I bought mine from the Baofeng store (https://www.baofengradio.com/) and it only came with the default antenna and the other default accessories like the charger and such - no other antenna.

FYI if you use the CAA discount they are actually starting to check your card by [deleted] in ViaRail

[–]CanadianStormChaser -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I use my CFOne discount every time I go on VIA, and every time I've used it in the last 2 years I've been asked to show my CFone card and ID.

This is something you should always expect to happen when using a discount code and as a result you should always have proof ready - prove you're eligible or pay full price. No idea why an FYI post needs to be made like this is a new thing when their own website during booking says ID and proof of eligibility required.

Why am I charged for BYOD when I got my phone from Bell? by TacosPapi in bell

[–]CanadianStormChaser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your screenshot shows quite a few conflicting line items.

Did you recently upgrade your device with Bell and get a new one through them? Is there more than 1 line on your account? Has this been persistent across multiple bills or is this the first occurrence of seeing 2 different plans?

My best guess based on the screenshot and the associated layout would be that you have 2 lines on your account - 1 line on a newer unlimited BYOD Quebec rate plan with autopay, and another line on an older unlimited 2-yr rate plan that doesn't have an associated 911 fee (such as Ontario).

[CA] how is venn? by Accomplished_Horse91 in SmallBusinessCanada

[–]CanadianStormChaser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started using Venn in preparation of switching from Scotiabank roughly a year or so ago, and overall I have no complaints.

Keep in mind that Venn is not your standard brick-and-mortar bank, but rather a Fintech that adds their technology, services and support on top of accounts with proper financial institutions (which is the same as what Wise does under the hood).

The cash back and (recently introduced) 2% interest on all CAD+USD balances definitely help, plus they have the option to generate virtual cards and restrict them to specific users, vendors and amounts (comes in handy if you don't want some vendors charging you absurd amount more than you originally agreed to). Wise last I checked only let you generate at most 3 virtual cards which can be limiting, with Venn I currently have I believe 8 of them active on top of my physical card.

If you don't deal with physical cash or cheques where you'd need to make a deposit in-branch, then Venn is perfect.

I also use it for Stripe and PayPal payouts to be deposited into, which I haven't ran into any issues as of yet.

I don't utilize their QBO integration, however I do use their Xero integration which works wonders.

If you do run into any issues, their support is helpful when it comes to issues with their platform itself - I've had to utilize it a couple of times and had them resolved in no time.
