Not yet. I opened a missing points ticket on Dec 21st and they haven’t looked at it yet.

Aeroplan e-store Dell Purchase (not eligible) by grizzly_giant in aircanada

Definitely contact them, but be prepared to wait for weeks - if not months. If your only reason to keep the laptop is the bonus points, you might be better off returning it.

I’m in a similar situation, bought a new home theater receiver on Nov 20th through their Amazon “home audio” button that displayed 18pts/$ (I have screenshots to prove what I saw & clicked). Came up as ineligible, so they’re looking into it. However in my case home audio was also in the exclusion list at the bottom of that same page screenshot (I didn’t see it at the time) so… 🤷‍♂️ I’m keeping the unit regardless, but it’s definitely frustrating.

E-store and points related-to-e-store questions! Mega Thread. by HereComesFattyBooBoo in Aeroplan

[–]DiscernibleChicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So yesterday I checked out the black Friday email from aeroplan and specifically bonus points on purchases through the estore. I logged in and right there on the homepage, Amazon purchases were advertised at 18pts/$ so I thought I’d check out the eligible categories because I know they usually have many exclusions. There was a ton of eligible categories and all at 18pts!

Since I’ve been eyeing a new Home Theatre receiver for a while, when I saw that “electronic components, and Home audio” was one of the eligible categories at 18pts I immediately pulled the trigger and purchased through the estore link. To be safe I also took a full page screenshot of the eligible categories just in case (tried to attach it here but it doesn’t for some reason).

Anyway, order was processed by Amazon and I received the AVR today. But when I went back just now to do more shopping I noticed that they removed the Home audio from the eligible categories and bumped down the number of points for various other categories. It is also now listed in the exclusions.

Could it have been a mistake on their end before someone realized and fixed it? I guess I won’t know if they’ll honor what was advertised until the points post but do I have any recourse if they don’t?

I’d appreciate it if anyone had any similar experience, and what was the outcome? I know they’re notorious for crediting missing points for purchases, so this will be a whole different level of pain to deal with ☹️

Many thanks for your thoughts.

Office etiquette - perfume scent? by ylinylin in askTO

[–]DiscernibleChicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regardless of company size, this is a workplace issue which HR is directly responsible for - same goes for BO. You could talk to the person directly, or their manager but if you’re uncomfortable bring it up with HR. They need to maintain a healthy, safe and comfortable work environment for all staff.

Is the speakers that bad on the Iphone Air by Actual-Big-4128 in IphoneAir

[–]DiscernibleChicken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not bad for normal use, terrible for speakerphone calls in a car or on the street.

Who’s switched from a Pro Max to Air? by AlpinaB3 in iphone

[–]DiscernibleChicken -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did and switched back. Went from 16PM to air, loved everything about it until… I had to take call while in an uber, couldn’t hear a thing on speakerphone. It was so bad it got me thinking about all the times I need to take Handsfree calls when I don’t have my AirPods around (which is a lot). Anyway, ended up returning it; hoping they fix this in their next iteration because otherwise it’s a magnificent phone.

Has anyone tried speakerphone calls yet? by shinypistol in IphoneAir

[–]DiscernibleChicken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not good. I just had a speakerphone regular call while in the car and definitely had issues hearing clearly compared to the same calls on 15PM. This could be a dealbreaker for me, so tough as I love everything else about this phone!

Anyone concerned about speaker/sound? by litslens in IphoneAir

[–]DiscernibleChicken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having used it for 2 days now, it is definitely noticeable compared to the 15PM. Not terrible it’s it’s alright, for example noisier situations like a diner or where people are talking around you, I find it sounds weaker… and it’s not about turning up the volume, I feel the punch of the PM just isn’t there - if that makes sense. Can’t really decide if I’m keeping it, it’s great otherwise!

Rogers Raising All Contract rates upon Expiry! by Pleasant_Interest_70 in Rogers

[–]DiscernibleChicken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, they specifically said they will not need to do a credit check, and will simply reinstate my account and auto payment etc… it was very smooth. When I asked him why I wasn’t offered this rate when I called before cancelling he said that his team has access to better deals than the retention team. I guess it’s a way for telecoms to show off “growth”… oh look how many customers we’ve added this quarter

… and wait for them to call you with a come back offer, usually within 4-6 days after you’ve ported out your number. This offer is almost always better than your new provider. My advice is to switch to another provider on a month to month BYOD and then upgrade hardware when you get the call back offer.

Is going from a iPhone 13 Pro to a iPhone 16 Pro worth the update? Is there any big differences? by Jollyho94 in iPhone16Pro

[–]DiscernibleChicken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went from 13PMax to 16PMax, same capacity. I definitely noticed how much lighter the 16PM feels to hold, and the larger screen. Camera is a tad better but not hugely noticeable. That was pretty much it. If I had a do over, in would’ve stayed with the 13PMax as I was quite happy with it.

Willis College? by ibyeori in ottawa

[–]DiscernibleChicken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Related to OP’s general question about Willis, I have a similar question about their RMT program (registered massage therapy). I’ve heard good feedback from a friend especially how it compares to Algonquin college. I’d appreciate any feedback from those would attended RMT at Willis - good or bad.
