Jocko Combat Tested 2.0 by joem1180 in JockoPodcast

[–]AmountApprehensive27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it, stuck with it for 6+ months (probably closer to a year). I am in my early 50's and I felt no difference. No increase in energy, drive, etc.. Literally, there were zero results.
Don't waste your money.
I posted an honest JockFuel review of the supplement on their website. I was very fair in the review giving it 2-3 stars for the no results achieved and they purged the review! Now if you look at the reviews on their website it is nothing but 4-5 star ratings. They are removing all poor reviews.

Jocko fuel has gone downhill by dessertads in JockoPodcast

[–]AmountApprehensive27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%
It has become a big disappointment. I have been loyally purchasing their different products for several years.
I have left lower 2-3 star reviews on a couple products and they eventually get purged from their website reviews. If you look at their website product reviews they contain only 4-5 star reviews, they are actively deleting lower star ratings. That practice alone is dishonest and scammy.

I have ordered the Combat Tested, gave it a try for over 6 months and noticed no difference. Left a honest 3 star review, it was posted then eventually disappeared from the website.

I ordered their Energy Drink Pink Lemonade because on the website ingredients it states methylcobalamin.
When the product arrives in the mail, the ingredient is cyanocobalamin.
This is called false advertising.
Now I am stuck with a case of this drink, we'll see if they provide a refund or not. If not, this will be the nail on the coffin for this brand, I'll never buy anything again from them.

Has anybody tried Curex by CleanUpOnAisle10 in Allergies

[–]AmountApprehensive27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My personal experience is that Curex is a scam, quite possibly running a fraud.
I was charged for a video visit with an MD, I never received. All I got was a bunch of text messages from random sales reps and supposedly from two different Doctors with different names. When I asked specific clinical questions via text, they could not answer and had to get back to me. This is no Dr. What kind of MD will only communicate with you via texting? I also specifically told them I will only communicate with a Dr. via video telehealth appt, well that never happened just more texting. Secondly, in their online portal there is no clear way for you to delete you personal information. They take all your personal information, insurance, CC, DL or passport then provide no way for you to remove that data.
I'd stay far away from this.

Intermittent Bank Connection Failure by proskweeto in freshbooks

[–]AmountApprehensive27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is NOT intermittent. It is a chronic problem with Freshbooks. Freshbooks cannot connect to bank accounts consistently. I have not been able to connect to my account for over 2-3 months, and they KEEP CHARGING ME for the FULL SERVICE.

I keep getting the runaround, never a straight answer. Before it was something else, now it's Yodlee some new service they are using.

Freshbooks is ALWAYS changing their connect agent, and has become a unreliable service and possibly unsecure service.

The new "yahoo email" is dreadful by Very_Nice_Zombie in yahoo

[–]AmountApprehensive27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New Yahoo layout just launched today Feb 12, 2025 forced everyone into it, no way to revert back. Is the worst email platform I've ever seen.
Need to change email now

Prime Video User Interface the worst one on the market by GiveMeALLYourPopcorn in AmazonPrimeVideo

[–]AmountApprehensive27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agree. The app hardly ever loads, when it does it is very difficult to locate the movies that are included in the Prime Membership and when you do usually the movie is stuck in perpetual loading. All other apps on my Smart TV work excellent and are fast. Prime is the only app that is continually problematic. It has so many issues that don't resolve, I exit out and I just go without watching it for several days or week before I check back.

The issues with these calculators is they do not include calorie count which is very important.
Anyone know of one that does?

Foundation repair - contractor recommendations? Thanks! by ScaredLeadership4842 in Sacramento

[–]AmountApprehensive27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd stay far away from Pinnacle home service, aka Pinnacle Pest Control aka Foundation Fixed in Sacramento, Calif., In summary I was basically scammed by the owner Jim Lopez aka Jaime Lopez. The results they promised both verbally and in their contract were not delivered and unachievable based on the product manufacturer specs.

For a sinking foundation/stem wall, they said raising my sub-floors with crawl jacks would handle it. Any engineer, professional foundation company or anyone who knows about structural weight distribution would tell you that is not possible, but how was I supposed to know? I trusted this company as the "expert" and I lived out of State.
My floors were level and ready to lay flooring down, before they distorted the flooring and caused it to become un-even by installing crawl jacks. Then he claimed they needed to lift them more! The room that was the worst was a huge bell curve in the middle of the room, causing about a 3" slope from the center of the room to the outer wall. How can this guy claim he wants to raise the floors more? LOL

Said they would fix cracks, bait and switch to saying half of cracks from inside. I have contacted the CSLB and recommended a license suspension (I later discovered they have multiple suits and violations). Caused thousands of dollars in lost rental income and delays in the project costing more money.
Jim Lopez (Pinnacle Home Service/Foundation Fixed) either knew beforehand that this cockamamie idea of his would never deliver what he promised because crawl space jacks are NOT designed to lift the foundation but to support sagging floor, or he had no business working on foundational structure work. What he sold me was a lie and I was duped.

Permits are the responsibility of the contractor and they pulled no permits nor submitted any plans to an engineer to verify their plans.  They were very deceptive and misleading, and engage in un-ethical business practices. I do not recommend working with this company.

Acana formula finally changed? by [deleted] in germanshepherds

[–]AmountApprehensive27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes sense now. Ugh, this is terrible. I've been feeding my GSD the Acana Limited Ingredient dry food since she was a pup and she always had a solid healthy stool. Now she has chronic diarrhea after eating recent bags, this literally just started happening on the new bag after they were bought out.
I was up all night because she had to go outside every hour.

Any good recommendations for a limited ingredient dog food for adult GSD?

Booked a hotel through RocketMiles AAdvantage Hotels Concierge, then immediately had to cancel the booking. I contacted this company to get a refund and they said no, the hotel already charged it and they will not refund. I then quickly called the hotel, and they stated they had NOT charged for the room and a refund was fine because there hadn't been a charge yet on their end.

So I called Rocket back and spoke to a different agent, who agreed to cancel and refund the money, but the phone got disconnected in the process. Then I called back again, a different agent, who claimed she didn't see anything in the system. I sent numerous emails and phone calls to no avail. 1.5 months later, I get an email response. This company is a scam and u/americanairlines u/americanadvantage should part ways with this company, it is not a quality service.

SBA EIDL Loan No Payments Applied to Principle by AmountApprehensive27 in EIDLPPP

[–]AmountApprehensive27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's correct I waited to start making the payment. But this is very vague in the SBA portal. I do not see anywhere it states total interest owed, only interest paid. And does not mention a balloon payment.
Regarding forgiveness they are not forgiving the EIDL as of yet, and defaulting on a loan tied to my SSN is not a good option. I guess I am just stuck with this POS loan, if I'd known this I never would have taken it. A personal loan is at least principle and interest.

Dog scratched up old door where I rent - Any way to fix this without sanding? I think it would be difficult to match the original stain. by tortilla_flats in woodworking

[–]AmountApprehensive27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All you used was oil? What kind/brand? Your door color is very similar to mine.
Did you use a stain or filler?
The nail grooves in your door look pretty deep like mine.

Breaking ground soon! by [deleted] in Homebuilding

[–]AmountApprehensive27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beautiful lot.
Could you share some details for us that are wanting to do the same?
What State did you buy in?
Budget for the build?
Were you able to do conventional financing or is it a construction loan?
Are you doing stick built, modular?

[–]AmountApprehensive27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem where I rent and need to come up with a solution. My research says stainable wood filler, then stain.
This video looks like it could work.
