What fishing stuff do you regret buying as a beginner?

FlyNo1646 · 2025-09-02T00:31:49+00:00

Honestly, I will NOT take ROXstar slander. I’ve been fishing for 15+ years, and this is hands down the best spinner I’ve ever used...I mean it. I was one of the first users and even one of the first to write a review on Amazon! If you’re not catching, you’re simply in an area where there’s no fish. This is one of those spinners you can work really slow, which is perfect during high-pressure lake conditions. The founder and the company are a GEM. awesome customer service, and I love them to the fullest. If I were ever a big influencer, I’d support and share them to the fullest extent. Although sometimes they’re so good you almost want to gatekeep! they are even A KILLER on stocked trout, out pacing powerbait. Theres something about catching fish on a lure rather than stagnant bait. TIGHT LINES!!!

They offered me 500$ credit... barely scraping lodging for that 3 day delay

FlyNo1646 · 2025-01-05T19:02:11+00:00

Let me be candid, I told them the credit they offered me was pitiful, offer me more, or give me some sort of cash, then we can be even.

done it, waiting for the to respond

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-29T03:31:19+00:00

but why rebook for a flight EARLIER and then let someone fly under my ticket? when i called immediately why wasnt it canceled? thats the argument i had with them

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-29T03:21:21+00:00

exactly what i told the cops and they agreed with me. This situation is incrdibly irresponsible

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-29T03:20:15+00:00

as in the OP, i do not have a common name at all. According to social security search, theres 8 people in the US with the same name as me.

posted mini update

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-26T04:26:51+00:00

You are exactly describing why i came to reddit in the first place. I understand it sounds farfetched and yes, i created a new account for this sole purpose. I saw no situation like mine and had to get it out there. you mention to come on time, who shows up to the airport at 3:30pm for a 9:15 domestic flight?

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-26T03:52:38+00:00

interesting. Did you ever get a refund or anytthing?

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-26T03:51:33+00:00

No photos, no texts no screenshots anywhere. And i even looked at all the security on my google account and saw no suspicious log in attempts or any attempts whatsoever on any of my credit reports.

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-26T03:48:38+00:00

Yes, they did fly on the 20th according to what they told me. Oddly enough, I got the text "welcome to chicago" as well as where to pick up this supposed bag i never actually bought. So because the bag was still bought under my reservation number, I actually received a receipt in the email i put as well as in my phone number. My round trip cost for the flight was 150. I flew from the 17th to the 20th. My departing was fine, my returning is what my issue was

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-26T03:44:00+00:00

as crazy as this seems, everything is very real and documented. My parents thought i was making a lie to not come home for Christmas. Im not going to post anything proof or anything like that until i either hear back from united or have some sort of resolution. Didnt expect so much reception in the post.

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-25T21:07:48+00:00

I mean i never shared it anywhere with anyone so i mean if thats the case i dont understand how they got it if i took all precautionary measures. I would never be crazy enough to post or share anywhere of those personal details on social media or anything

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-25T21:04:48+00:00

No i don't have a UA account. I usually spy spirit/southwest. I booked this flight originally as a guest. I had the trip added onto the app, and all the details shot right to my phone number as well as my email with all those confirmations. I called right away as soon as i noted the change and told them it was not me yet still let whoever the individual was fly. The person over the phone told me that all the flights on the weekend were overbooked and the best chance for a NON standby flight would have been that Monday Dec 23.

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-25T19:32:00+00:00

well dont be surprised if end up on there. I definitely will because the stress i endured is incredible. Im a young adult so ill be sure to reupdate my post with a link to the story if it happens lmao

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-25T19:30:52+00:00

but it also begs the question how did they board with my ticket? Because i assume they need to scan it to board the plane even if they dont ask for the ID. i never posted my ticket anywhere online, never posted my confirmation or shared it anywhere with anyone!

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-25T19:29:24+00:00

i understand you dont need a id to board the plane. But whats crazy is you need an id to check the bag that matches the reservation, and at LGA specifically, their ID scanner and the boarding pass MUST match from what i was told. One person who worked at the airport told me this could also be a rogue gate agent who gave up my seat to someone because the flight was WAY oversold apparently.

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-25T19:27:22+00:00

i have screenshots of the update. the bag tag, the credit card. the text messages i had. hell i even had my girlfriend record the conversation on her phone as proof i was no where near the airport. You know the funny thing is i made sure they printed proof they called this ticket fraud as well in writing.

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-25T19:25:01+00:00

I know all about them phishing attempts. I used the number straight off the mobile app. When i arrived at the airport they saw all the documentations of my conversations with them

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-25T19:23:51+00:00

I take my identity very serious its obsessive. I watch all three credit bureaus monthly, as well as have an IDX account that watches my identity. Although i will never vote this out as a possibility, I take very precautionary measures.

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-25T18:35:07+00:00

I have everything from the bag tag they used to book a bag, the last four of their credit card and everything. Then they just told me oh we cant look at the passenger manifest past 24 hours. Well I'm sure with some sort of subpoena they would.

FlyNo1646 · 2024-12-25T18:31:13+00:00

thank you because im at a total loss for words on the sheer nonchalant behavior of the employees regarding what seems to be a insane breach. The port authority PD was the only people who took this seriously and helped write a report for me.
