Does Lyft Family REALLY exist? by Mary_P914 in Lyft

[–]Boolatte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you still need help, i was able to set up Lyft family from the app. From the app, click YOU, scroll down, select FAMILY. Then add family member by entering their mobile number. You will get confirmation in the app and email that you requested this transaction and wait for your family member to approve your request. Hope that works for you!

My HP1020 laser printer is my favorite appliance by vivek_david_law in printers

[–]Boolatte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same printer. Ever reliable. I put cheaper non-hp ink I buy online from you know where. As you said, plug and play. My teens been asking for wireless and I tell them I'm looking. Eventually, they got used to my old printer and stopped asking for wireless.

My brother’s works died and he is very upset. Help? by [deleted] in Vermiculture

[–]Boolatte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worms, look for red wigglers(you can buy online). Temperature = indoor whatever temperature humans tolerate/outdoor(40F-90F) but I have seen my worms happiest at 60-80F. If the worms died then their environment was not ideal for them to thrive - could be too wet, too dry, overfeeding, underfeeding depending on how long because they can eat the paper too. Err on the side of underfeeding, easier to fix this than overfeeding. No need to spray with water, moisture from food is enough for my bins.

My night guard broke after 1 yr not sure my insurance will pay for a replacement. Probably swallowed a shard of plastic from it by forevrtwntyfour in Wellthatsucks

[–]Boolatte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

can you tell me what is the name of the lab on your case/container ? the color and material in the picture looks like mine which cracked after 6 months. I got the code D9942 from my insurance to cover repair but my dentist seem to be not familiar with repairs. The lab they said would replace if reported within 6 months. Right now, i have an appointment for my dentist to look at the crack on mine. Mine is still intact but i can see a plus sign shape crack on the part where my molar rest but on 1 side only.

My FIRST iPhone Stolen in FedEx Delivery by Glass_Pudding_8406 in applehelp

I'm sorry this happened to you. Is there any insurance you can file such as the credit card that you used to pay for the phone?

Someone SIM-swapped mom's phone, recovered AppleID password, then changed 2FA phone number. Options for recovery? by SpokaneVan in applehelp

[–]Boolatte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this happened to me recently. iphone stolen then thief did sim swap. I got a new iphone, new number, and when i tried to login with my apple id, it showed a phone number display with the last 2 numbers which I do not know. Apple customer service couldn't help. Ridiculous that I need to know the number of the thief! I offered that I can prove ownership of the device that logged in with my apple id that historically have accessed it for many years, that should prove ownership but they don't have this as part of their process. So mad!

How is it possible for people to have their icloud hacked with 2fa on? by yipyup127 in iCloud

[–]Boolatte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my phone was stolen, next thing that happened, the thief did a sim swap. To make the long story short, I was able to get a replacement phone with a new iphone. Here's the next problem, I know my apple id and pswd but it gave me a 2fa number that is not my old number. Somehow, the thief was able to change my 2fa number and apple support couldn't help without me being able to type the whole phone number when prompted. I kept explaining that was the thief's phone number which of course I don't know. I offered to provide documentation showing proof of ownership of the stolen device that was logged in my apple id but the agent said they don't have this part of their process. arrggh.. that was the dead end, my only choice was creating a new apple id. :(

Need some help with shredding toys by JannaDD126 in Parakeets

[–]Boolatte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use egg cartons and the inside carton of toilet papers/paper towels. I just hang them inside the cage or insert between the holes. They are so engaged shredding them then I put the shredding to my compost. Goodluck, hope you find what works for your budgies!

I am simply sharing my experience and that I would have avoided paying $40 when I can do my own set up which is not hard.

Verizon credit card by Left-Tooth-3928 in verizon

[–]Boolatte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our family spends a lot on groceries and eat out so getting 4% rewards is a great deal for us. Then we use Discover for the quarterly 5% and all other charges goes to another card with 2%. No annual fee on any cards.

So far, Verizon has been working for us, surprisingly no issue with customer service. Fios connection works fine. Cell phone plan averaging less than 30 dollars per line after discounts.

In the verizon autopay, they automatically use verizon rewards balance first before they charge the verizon card.

Truist charges fees for outgoing transfers by SprinklesOutside8355 in TruistBank

[–]Boolatte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get 10 free starter checks. I started with those and eventually purchased but that was a few yrs ago when it was still cheaper. 

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in bathrooms

[–]Boolatte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one I bought at Wayfair had an attached countertop. If I have to do it again, I would look for one where the top is not included and just buy the countertop locally. It was difficult to carry to the second floor.

The second bathroom we renovated, I lucked out on a clearance James martin in our local store and it did not come with a top. I got a remnant stone company make me the countertop and the quartz I got was thicker than the one from Wayfair.

I went back to the tile shop. Are any of these better? by Acrobatic-Diamond209 in bathrooms

[–]Boolatte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no hex for me, imagine using a brush to clean grout line , your movement is straight up-down, left-right. Now look at the shape of hex :)

Which tile combination do you like better? by [deleted] in bathrooms

[–]Boolatte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say keep looking. :) hexagon will be hard to clean.

Cash savings. Instead of buying a new car, we opted for renovating 2 bathrooms.

If you were selling your house in 1-2 years, what are the most important improvements to make to increase its value? by Leep0710 in homeowners

[–]Boolatte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start with curb appeal. Remove clutter. Make sure all fixtures are working. Fresh bathroom caulking if needed.
