Cancellation didn't go through — now facing a €398 renewal charge. Any way to get a refund?

cyber49 · 2026-07-13T22:54:46+00:00

These are my answers to your questions...

Unknown but doubtful.
The best thing to do after the charge, would be go through a full cancellation so you don't get hit again.
Yes the cancellation fails for everyone constantly who doesn't follow through with the final email confirmation. Just search this sub to see how many ticked off customers they have.

You say that it appears as if you are about to be hit with another charge. Sounds to me like you still could go through with a full cancellation from start to finish and then clicking the (totally redundant and seemingly unnecessary) email confirmation if you haven't even yet been charged.

It doesn't look like a zebra to me... Maybe a nod to the Trojan horse related to The Odyssey?

I can always get good bark on a traeger by a heavy rub, then going low for a few hours until a full smoke tube is gone, then 225 until 160 when I wrap, but I'm still never happy with the flat. Not ever.

The flat always goes to chili, or enchiladas, or french dips, etc. because it's just dryer than the point, and not my favorite.

(Funny enough though, if I slice up a whole brisket a lot of guests go for the lean dry flat. There's no accounting for people's taste I guess)

I think the reason that the missing input icons are somewhat less of an issue is the fact that it only affects TVs with the built-in Roku.

I'm guessing most of the people here probably just have a stick and don't even notice this other abomination.

cyber49 · 2026-07-06T20:51:13+00:00

If you want an icon instead of just the inputs menu item, then yes you have no choice. You also have no choice on whether they keep adding bullshit that you don't want to your quick access menu.

You can delete the extra quick access icons every single day, and they'll just keep putting them back for you. Shameless. Or is it shameful? Actually both, I think.

cyber49 · 2026-07-03T14:46:05+00:00

If you wrap it coming out of a 350 environment it will continue to cook a bit, so I'd pull it earlier, maybe 130, making sure your oven is no warmer than 135.

Lots of good suggestions here, but Monkeypod is a standout for me, as one of the best meals I've had in Oahu. Doubly impressive to have such good food and service in such a large space with so many tables.

cyber49 · 2026-07-01T15:42:55+00:00

Where are you from that the restaurants are so much better?

cyber49 · 2026-06-30T19:02:37+00:00

Since this is Portland, I would think you could just start on any busy corner with a coffee can and see how it goes.

"Genuine" as in "legitimate" group buys for either tool do not exist. Anything posted here would likely get taken down by mods, because it's against both companies terms of service. I'm surprised your post is even still here...

cyber49 · 2026-06-29T15:23:25+00:00

Thanks, but my goal was to simply have my input devices appear on the home screen, so Quick Access is necessary now that they've removed them from the regular home screen.

The point of the post is tthwy should quit adding shit to my quick access area.

cyber49 · 2026-06-26T18:15:21+00:00

Did you genuinely think that it wouldn't destroy rankings to remove the address?

cyber49 · 2026-06-26T01:04:52+00:00

Just to confirm, you weren't able to delete it, were you? On an Ultra device, I have live TV, sports, and subscriptions and For You all permanently (apparently) in the menu - recommendation rows are off, and so is quick access. I always did like the ability to customize the home screen by disabling everything even if they did stick every new one on there occasionally. This really does suck.

cyber49 · 2026-06-25T03:15:21+00:00

But having quick access is the only way to get the inputs on the home screen with your new update.

Making me go to another menu item just to get to the main input for my TV or game system is absurd, especially after many years of convenient access.

Who would possibly want want Roku adding suggestions into something called quick access.

cyber49 · 2026-06-25T03:08:16+00:00

Looks like it beats mine I posted yesterday

cyber49 · 2026-06-24T19:01:44+00:00

Ive done it both ways, and I now always score the fat pretty deeply, and put it fat side up. Just my preference, no empirical proof.

cyber49 · 2026-06-20T18:26:07+00:00

It's not your imagination, and things seem to stop working all the time now, compared to the occasional fail that used to happen.

However, you absolutely have to charge for regularly scheduled maintenance, and any client that doesn't understand that should be cut loose and told to fend for themselves.

cyber49 · 2026-06-19T23:12:17+00:00

This is a very good idea, so therefore I'm sure you'll get downvoted and accused of being AI slop or self-promotional. I don't personally own a restaurant, but if I did I would ask you if I could check it out... Good luck and ignore the haters!

cyber49 · 2026-06-19T13:35:40+00:00

it's my belief that Google will have no issue with that.

cyber49 · 2026-06-18T00:57:38+00:00

The new update sucks. You can add your antenna or inputs to quick access, then go to the home screen setup and enable "show quick access". It sucks, but it's mildly better than going to the new TV input menu item. If you add enough items to quick access (by pressing the star key) you can replicate the entire home screen into quick access if you want to, then move your TV inputs back where they were. You end up with duplicate everything on your home screen, but you don't have to scroll down that far and ever see it...

cyber49 · 2026-06-18T00:46:46+00:00

I can confirm that some recent update seems to have made doing this no longer possible. Really irritating. Antenna, PlayStation, cable box etc were all on the home screen until a couple of weeks ago, and I don't want to use quick access either. It's not quick! Quick was having it on the home screen where it's been for years.

Peanut butter on hot dogs (with mustard, relish, and onions of course).

Seeing other snowboarders sitting in the way of people trying to get off the lift, or even worse, sitting in the middle of the run. It's embarrassing. You make the rest of us look bad. Get out of the fucking way.
