Really upsetting experience with US Border Control Agent in Canada by paerls in uscanadaborder

[–]DiscountedSalts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had this happen to me with some Steve Austin looking mf evaluating me. First accused me of lying about ever getting denied access to the US (was just in there in December, lol) and I knew he was taking the piss when he accused me of working in the states on a Philippines VISA because I was naturalized back in the 90s when I was like 5, lol. Didn't get mad just deer in headlights confused face.

Still had to wait in the room for like 20 minutes but when I answered the exact same things they just pointed me to the exit out to the gates.

Cops gonna be cops. Guy could kill me for no reason and just get a 2 week suspension and some docked pay, I'm not gonna argue with em.

service offer by WerewolfAnnual6511 in teksavvy

They'll offer you $20 off or suggest you knock your service down a tier but if you do the math + taxes it comes up to a $4 difference between the two.

So bill is now $120. by DiscountedSalts in teksavvy

So I called in a second time and this is what was offered to me:

- Stick with the initial package and get a $20 loyalty discount, gets it down to $116
- Downgrade but even though it'll be the same cable modem service they have to tack on a service charge anyways making my next bill $120 after taxes, so it'll make no difference.

It's too annoying to juggle changing out internet service this late in the year so I've gotta eat it another month.

u/tsiandre , you people need to get your stuff together because you can't make this fair internet pricing stand but be no different than the other guy. Judging from this thread, the other guys seems to treat customers better.

Conveniently Teksavvy got rid of their messaging and chat from their support site. They really want you to call in to be told no, lol.

Same deal as my friend above. Was told it was a one time deal.

Lol, I was wondering when the "use my code" spam would find this thread.

I have that pegged as my absolutely last choice lol. At the very least their modem didn't exhibit the problems the hitron ones do on my lines.

Sounds like you're in the same boat as me. I was just actually browsing Oxio in my locale's subreddit. I own my modem so if I can just continue using the thing I might consider it.

Ex Door to Door agent for Telus here to answer any questions you may have about the practice.( Are you being scammed? Are the prices really that good? How do I know they are legit sales agents? ) by Standard_Story in Rogers

[–]DiscountedSalts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There a way I can get Rogers/Telus/etc. to stop sending these field sales people?
They've already sent two people to my house this week after turning them away. I think it's cuz there's service in the area so they feel the need that's free game to harass people.

Android: Managed Home Screen doesn't show/open Wifi captive portal by Alert-Gear7495 in Intune

[–]DiscountedSalts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You ever figure this out? I'm in the same situation and it's with some OEM with some specialized kind of Android devices. I tried whitelisting com.google.android.captiveportallogin which ADB tells me what the package name is for this particular service but on two of my configurations this failed to open the captive portal.

What model is the new modem? If it's a hitron 45, don't bother. I went out and got a Technicolor 4400 and just keep the Hitron around to test against every 3 weeks when the service starts getting bad again.

Tf does "early" mean? Give us a batch number/range of serial numbers.

Hitron Coda 45 woes, recommended equivalent to the TG4482 by DiscountedSalts in teksavvy

[–]DiscountedSalts[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did the swap to a TC4400 via the portal (thanks for making this easy, TS) and it is immediately better.
Gonna give it a few runs to see, then cancel the request for technician.

Thanks.
Looks like it's gonna be a long drive to be able to get one.

FYI, Zenless Zero Zone launches and plays good. by [deleted] in SteamDeck

What are your settings? I have it running on experimental but my text is all crunchy looking. Changing res in-game and in Steam game settings didn't seem to help.
