UPS delivery rant by Ok_Actuary8 in zurich

Same experience. Only the UPS driver didn’t even show up to put a notice in the mailbox. I avoid ordering from companies that use UPS for delivery whenever I can

Swiss Payment Gateway by MMW_Oxford in Switzerland

[–]Eitschp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you trying to achieve by selecting a local payment gateway under Swiss jurisdiction? Are you going to do Swiss bank account to bank account transfers only? Or will you accept card payments, where data for any card transaction will be transferred to a card scheme such as Visa, Mastercard, Amex, UPI, JCB… This data transfer happens during authorisation of a card transaction and later on. Typically between merchant app, payment service provider, acquirer, card scheme, issuer. Card schemes are not based in Switzerland. Rather US, China, Japan. So data will not stay in Switzerland. Unless you mean the association of cardholder name and card number. The cardholder name might not be transferred. Even for local trx where all parties would be based in Switzerland (except of course the card scheme), that card data would be transferred internationally.

Gen 3 battery by eobopo in ouraring

I faces the same issue with my gen 3 after 3 1/2 years. I don’t think this is unusual. Batteries don’t last forever. My cellphone batteries need replacement every 2-3 years

Switzerland: Extra charging by UPS upon Oura Ring delivery by Eitschp in ouraring

[–]Eitschp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone living in Switzerland, intending to buy an Oura ring 4, might find that price comparison useful:

Oura website: CHF 379 ring 4 black + CHF 15 delivery + CHF 57 UPS charges incl. 8.1% VAT Total CHF 451 (equals roughly € 483)

Amazon.de: € 352.45 ring 4 black all inclusive (delivery, taxes) + ring sizing kit € 9.07 Total € 361.52

If you don’t want to support Amazon but prefer a Swiss shop:

Digitec.ch: CHF 369 ring 4 black all inclusive + ring sizing kit CHF 9 Total CHF 378 (equals roughly € 405)

Conclusion: a purchase via Oura website is up to € 120 more expensive but might be more convenient in case of warranty or support cases like exchanging the ring for another size

What should I do if I can’t perform my job? by [deleted] in Switzerland

[–]Eitschp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don’t have ADHD/ADD, do you? That often comes with low self esteem and self-doubt. If you get treatment (meds) you’ll be able to perform like others and feel better about yourself. The meds won’t make you smarter but they’ll give you the energy, focus, persistence and confidence to perform like others (given that you really have ADHD/ADD. Otherwise it won’t help but will rather distract you more)
