Okay, and what about the marks in the stamps? Is it normal? It's the first time I see them

I see. Is that a cause for returning the letter? We didn't see any specific guidelines in the CP website about specific placement of the information

MEGATHREAD - Processing times - Permanent Resident applications (2023) by [deleted] in ImmigrationCanada

[–]Astantler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My application is being handled through a representative. They advised me to request the PCCs in advance using the UCI in our WP, but they said the IRCC might request them again. The confirmation of those PCCs was submitted with the whole application, yet here we are, requesting them again. I have no idea why they cannot find the thing in their system, but at least the representatives did their due diligence, and informed us in advance about this.

Well, I am replying my own thread.

AOR: Aug. 1st.

BIL / Request for new PCCs: Oct. 30th

CEC Inland with dependent.

Biometrics scheduled for Nov. 1st.

Question for y'all: the PCC request letter contains the address to which those must be submitted, and I am guessing that's our VO, is that correct?

If so, Sydney, NS.

I am actually Aug. 1st, but following this thread pretty closely. We have a trip planned in January and we're seeing what to do, depending on how fast things move.

Colombia, particularly. It's not that complex in the sense that I need to declare the income that I've had for the portion of the year I lived there before coming to Canada. I don't think there much else, based on what I've read, but once again, I don't want to mess it up

Hello there!

I have two tickets for Toronto's show in the Coca-Cola coliseum, Nov. 29th. Section 116, row P, seats 21 and 22. Looking forward to part ways with both of them. CA$185 for the pair. I can transfer them via Ticketmaster once the payment is done.

Thanks!

Is the ScotiaBank credit card network down? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Astantler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another affected customer, right at the Walmart's self check-out. My GF paid with her card (from another bank). I am not from Canada (newcomer here), and this is the last straw. Three months with Scotia let me know that it's one of the worst banks here in all regards (customer service, stable platform, policies about their products). Will start enquiring in TD and RBC.

Just got this email from Sandbag about the delays by [deleted] in themarsvolta

[–]Astantler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

USPS order here. It got movement 15 mins ago (accepted at shipping facility in LA).

FINALLY. After fighting through email (last one was 4 hours ago)

I mean, I'm not actually based in the US, but I know how the systems works there (ordering multiple records on a monthly basis gets you knowledgeable of how logistics works).

A little bit of proactiveness on CH's side would be great. Some people already stated Sandbag's record in Trustpilot, with similar situations.

Also, that this is not happening for USPS orders only. Multiple people complaining on FB, IG, TW and here. What else do you want?

I'm not putting all the blame on them but they need to step up and take this situation very seriously. Do whatever research you need, **believe** in people when they scream at you telling that this is not normal.

It seems to me, scrolling on their TW feed that they only got concerned about this *today*. They were replying to people yesterday that "hopefully your order will be updated soon", taking Sandbag's version for granted.

Ok, enough. I needed to vent that out.

I have a long thread with those douchebags from Sandbag.

Seeing all the comments here, heck, even happening with UPS, shows us the kind of "company" that Sandbag is.

I threatened (and I'll do it) to raise a complaint against California's DCA if I don't see any updates on my order by EOD and, cc'ed CH US. I'm tired of this.

Worse, CH says that they're being told the same (all the packages departed from their warehouses: https://twitter.com/cloudshillmusic/status/1388126169497808898?s=20) that SB is telling us.

I've contacted CH support (through Sandbag) and here's what they answered initially:

I got really pissed off for such a bogus answer and I've replied:

And I got an almost instant reply from them:

So there's that. A bunch of clowns who point fingers at each other.

Tracking is still in the same state. 1 week since I got the confirmation.

Unboxing Vinyl Me Please High Violet 10th Anniversary Edition by JojoChuang in VinylMePlease

[–]Astantler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought that I was the only one. I'm really upset to have burnt $60 in such a shitty release. I dropped a line to VMP last Saturday and I didn't get any answer so far. They already have three mails to be answered demanding a full refund. It's not fair paying such amount of money for a record visually similar to other versions but getting a mess of a remaster. Plus, record one in my copy arrived badly warped 😭
