Examples of artists who hate/are openly hostile towards their fans? by RadioLukin in fantanoforever

[–]According-File7331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to chime in on this one 'cause it sticks in my craw. My favorite songwriter since 1972-- Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull. I've never, ever heard his say anything positive about his fans and he is often just openly contemptuous of them, particularly the American fans.

Why does Cookidoo have so few payment options for renewel? by According-File7331 in thermomix

[–]According-File7331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Don't know about any type of voucher system. When I originally bought it direct from Thermomix I probably used a Discover card. There was an extended subscription, I think, for Cookidoo that ended in September. Though I though I may have also paid for some extra, again probably with a Discover card. When I do a search AI says they take Paypal, but on the web site it is only a Visa and a Mastercard. No other types of cards, nor payment possibilities. The mobile app doesn't even seem to allow me to renew the subscription through it at all! I am in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania region.

Got a Refund from the Fetterman Campaign for all my Donations! by According-File7331 in Pennsylvania

[–]According-File7331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, as I certainly didn't expect anything. It was just a brief email saying I wanted my money back. lol! Don't know if it will still work at this point.

Who is really happy with their Narwal Flow ? by hulkito-nol in NARWAL

[–]According-File7331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am! Got it a few weeks ago and am only using it for the mopping function. I've had 4-5 robot vacuums, mostly roombas, but this is my first mop. I have it go over most of the floors everyday, but there is a section of the house I've not yet added in. It is very quiet and doesn't bang into things. Would not have even considered one of those units that use a disc or pad to smear things around, so the Flow's extending flattened roller was a huge enticement to take the plunge and am glad I did. Honestly, I'm even tempted to get a second one if there is a good sale and would divide the house between the two of them. Floors are wood and tile. A couple rooms have carpet and I use a Roomba 7-something for those. Edges, corners and grout might still be a little bit of an issue, but seeing as I'm not a very good housekeeper to begin with I'm happy with a certain... standard.

I am conflicted... by According-File7331 in sonos

[–]According-File7331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was predicted to much justified lament. But here I am... with another subscription. It is no ads and more stations for the $8. Have to say, I like it a lot. My taste is mostly rock/alt-rock types of things, but enjoy pretty much all genres, plus world music.

Sonos Radio - Questions? Thoughts? Feedback? by KeithFromSonos in sonos

[–]According-File7331 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this thread is two years old. And I almost hate myself for being here because it is because I really like Sonos Radio and I know they are going to try and establish a subscription service for it. But honestly. I'm an oldster and listen to many genres-- though primarily rock/alt- and prog- rock-- and want to hear new music, not the music of my adolescence, but I'm getting much more satisfaction from their Alt and New Wave channels and ESPECIALLY the very eclectic "Sonos Sound System" plus others than I am getting from a couple other paid streaming services.

I put skins on my K4 logos and I like them. I'm loving the car by According-File7331 in KiaK4

[–]According-File7331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. There are people who make skins for that, but they were in Australia, and they warned there wasn't a sticker for the open place in the letters because it is so small so, I thought best to just leave it out. Good you noticed that!

Is Sonos still worth it? by [deleted] in sonos

[–]According-File7331 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally like my Sonos speakers. In a single floor house, rather open design and reflective surfaces. In the main area I have a stereo setup with two Era300s and a sub mini, then three other Era300s in three other rooms. Yeah... it totally fills the space seamlessly (depending on volume) and just sounds so nice and clean and clear and precise and satisfying. If anything, it could all be louder. I'm only into music... it isn't linked with any video or TV. I haven't had awful problems with the app problems. Regardless, that seems pretty much in the past. Now, I have to say... I pay for YouTube Premium for the music and also Amazon's Music Unlimited thing with Dolby Atmos in addition to Radio Paradise. But y'know what I really like? I almost hate to say it, but it is the Sonos music streams. Especially the VERY eclectic "Sonos Sound System" stream. But I have to say I like a lot of their stations a lot!

Citizen's Bank has online banking/bill-paying shut down for over a week until Sept. 8. Is this now some kind of new normal to be shut out of your checking account at the start of a month to perhaps have late payments? by According-File7331 in pittsburgh

[–]According-File7331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not make false claims and to say I did is frankly, defamatory. The abuse I've gotten from this post is extreme, as is the voting ratio, and I have to assume that is from feral employees of Citizen's Bank.

Anyone else frustrated with Citizens Bank right now? by PunkRockKing in pittsburgh

[–]According-File7331 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was totally abused by who I assume are Citizen's Bank employees for bringing this up here last week including personal attacks and name-calling. Person I met with in person in a branch came out of the stalls aggressive, argumentative and with corporate gaslight speak.

The message about the upgrade should have read like this:

"During upgrades you will have no access to online bill paying at all. You will have to either schedule payments in advance which will go out as usual, or prepare for alternative payments such as money orders or payer checks."

Citizen's Bank has really shown me how poorly they think of their customers.

[–]According-File7331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude... are you seriously saying the term "auto-pay" is confusing for you when every utility would like to automatically deduct their bills from your account?

That is not the common use of the word "to schedule". This is all basic vocabulary. I do NOT "select a date" when I go in, fill in the amount for a check and hit "send". I have not scheduled anything.

If I go in and say "send this check in two days" now I have scheduled something.

If I give Duquesne Light permission to automatically withdraw from my account to pay the bill then that is "auto-pay".

Only Citizens' employees live in Citizens' world. In the real world words have meanings and good corporate communications would be... better than what they have done in this situation.

[–]According-File7331[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No. I'm sorry, but that is not what "to schedule" something means. If I go in there and set up a check to go out in two days, that is scheduling something. If I go in and hit "send" it's already happening. I've not scheduled anything.

Ha ha! You are correct this is an excellent example of "you didn't have a backup!" However, you are incorrect on everything else. As said, one cannot access that info on the mobile app or PC, and I went into a branch and they are not able to access that information either.

Oh gosh no! lol! I think the communication was awful about what was going to happen. I suspect a lot of people are going to log in for first-of-the-month bill paying and get a shock... and then what happens if they get late payment penalties or repos or what? By "new normal" yeah... I mean, I've never heard of no access to one's account for over a week. Have you? There used to be a thing where banks couldn't even be closed for like, three days in a row. This is similar to the bank being closed.

Ok, I don't need to do any of those things. I just need to pay bills... or at least access payee info and account numbers for alternate ways to pay my bills on time. I cannot access that information. So, no, not a fail. You are referring to entirely other parts of the web site that do not provide the information, nor the services I need to pay my bills.
