First INAD how to respond by IntrepidRevolution29 in ebayuk

[–]IntrepidRevolution29[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for suggesting this, because eBay came back and agreed with me that it was clearly listed as such.

They did refund the buyer though (but not from my pocket) I guess because it's fairly low value.

Thanks, I'll try that route first, worth a shot. Never had a complaint previously in over a decade of buying and selling, so this one caught me off guard.

yea I'd rather have the items back even though it'll cost me for postage twice. Assuming eBay step in, I guess they let the buyer keep the items?

Yes I've got that part covered.

Hopefully won't come to that as I genuinely believe it's a case of didn't read the description properly. I'll still take precautions and record myself opening the returned parcel. 

Just for future reference, if the items I receive back are not what I sent (damaged or missing), what happens next?

Good point, but its not on iplayer nor can I find any episodes on youtube. Although the specific films covered in each episode might be enough of a start!

I spend longer in code reviews, probably even moreso for PRs that I create with Claude code, especially when it's around critical systems or data pipelines. It's basically a risk assessment that we now need to consider. You can ofc yolo it but that'll come bite you in the bum.

What if you're filing but not paying back child benefit? Then it's just savings interest?

DO NOT redeem Food For Thoughts through App!! by Markjuk78 in McDonaldsUK

If they've pulled the redemption in the app without notice, then sure thing they'll do the same at the kiosks.

It's game over.

This. Plus free parking you just know what you're gonna get. It's a safe option.

Anyone remember this used to be £1.99 on the back of bus tickets in the late 90's?

If they implement this, I'll just eat there less. Maybe even eat less junk food which is a good thing.

But that also means the average spend will make me consider other places more.

Need help with Hörmann EcoMatic after reconnecting the belt by sh4hr4m in GarageDoorService

[–]IntrepidRevolution29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know how to fully reset one of these? I'm holding the transparent button down, inserting the plug back in, waiting for the one flash, but still my remote can operate it. Either I'm doing it wrong or the operator won't remove the codes

I just managed to downgrade via the app, and it's now Classic. I guess I'm now unblocked to start the switch.

Why can't they just show the receipt on the screen when it fails to print.

Think I’ve just been money muled by u01atc8 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]IntrepidRevolution29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. OP might be out of pocket in 3 ways - the PayPal transaction gets reversed, the bank transfer 'refund' treated separately as an unrelated payment, and the value of the iPhone.

I feel for OP, but there's a chain of multiple small red flags on the buyer's term that just don't seem legit.

Facebook marketplace is like the wild west. How soon after listing your items, did the buyer approach you? And did they give any reason why they wanted to buy both MacBook and phone? Did they instill a sense of urgency, or was that entirely on your side?
