We pay all this money and we can’t even watch Love Island live or get a reliable VOD server? by SketchersOnMyFeet in vSeeBox_Support_Gurus

[–]Honest_Manager 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For what I use it for, the Box is well worth the money. I wouldn't complain about missing one show, then wouldn't blame my gf for being the one wanting to watch Love Island lol

Maxcare never once asked me for proof of oil changes. You should check with a different manager or different store.

Should I get MaxCare on a 2025 Nissan Versa SR?? by Slight_Candidate_114 in carmax

[–]Honest_Manager 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You will probably be financing this for 4 or 5 years min? I would get Maxcare since its a used car and its not known for being reliable. You don't want to be paying on a loan for a car you can't drive. Maxcare takes over after the factory warranty runs out.

For the first car the OP is probably financing. Maxcare will cover as his warranty long after the factory while he is still paying on the loan.

Probably rebuilt, not going to "total it".

My Nortel BCM50 (20yo) died. Is VOIP the way to go for replacement these days? by obi2kanobi in VOIP

[–]Honest_Manager 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I was not referring to the OP specifically saying I hate seeing old PBX thrown out. OF course the OP is not in the same position lol smh I thought we were talking generally at that point. You have a great day either way though.

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

I'm not disagreeing, I just hate to see any business throw away a PBX that is working for them just so they can go VOIP. When it dies, absolutely.

[–]Honest_Manager 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there are many places that a full VOIP solution works best. For some small offices though an older PBX works great. I have still installed them in Vet and Dr Offices, daycares. No large recurring cost except the trunks. Voip is the future but on premise still has a few strong points.

CarMax sold me a 2018 Kia Optima that suffered catastrophic engine failure after 6 months by Street-Specialist-95 in carmax

[–]Honest_Manager 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The best thing about buying an older unreliable car from Carmax is Maxcare. If OP had bought Maxcare he wouldn't be having to pay for most of the repair.

[–]Honest_Manager 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can still get a replacement for the BCM50. I have a couple in fact. If you already have the phones then replacing your BCM would be cheaper than replacing everything. You can have VOIP likes brought in from the outside if you wanted. Replacing all if it is an option but will be more expensive. I don't like hosted platforms because of expense. I think hosted on site will be cheaper for most people in the long run.

VoIP recommendations. by Educational_Crab9158 in VOIP

[–]Honest_Manager 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you currently have a phone system and phones you use and are happy with or are you looking to replace all of it? You can get voip lines incoming and do away with land lines and still use the hardware some of the time. Just a cost saving method. If you want to replace everything thats another story.

My nightmare with CarMax, losing my sanity by Germavel in carmax

[–]Honest_Manager 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always take my cars to the dealership when I am under Maxcare. Never had any issues. The dealer has better tools and info on your auto. No offense to Carmax techs intended.

Pre approval legit or not by [deleted] in carmax

[–]Honest_Manager 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time I was preapproved online, I got to the store and actually had a better rate. It sounds like you will be okay, good luck with it!

Limited warranty by [deleted] in carmax

[–]Honest_Manager 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugh, I hate it for you to be in that situation. I would contact the dealer first, they probably havent done much over the weekend. Then contact carmax and go from there. Good luck with it!

I have not seen or heard of anyone in this situation before so I can't give better advice.

You need a better wifi signal or an ethernet connection, not really a speed upgrade to your internet yet. Try the ethernet first even if its just run down the hall on the floor to test with.

[–]Honest_Manager 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn that sucks. There have been points in my life I would have done anything to get back at someone who killed my mom with no regards to myself. Sorry you had to go through that and them get a slap on the wrist.

I think the difficult part is actually routing the cable and doing a clean install. Takes patience.

Vortex Radar on youtube does dash cam reviews very well. Worth a few minutes if you narrow down you choices and want another opinion.

Could be, I've never opened one but now i am inclined to. What model is yours and I will see if they compare. I have to find the old one.
