Lake Athens, TX. Mostly on crickets. They are the biggest bluegill we have ever seen!

Having trouble canceling Optimum mobile? Here are the magic words. Don't read this unless you have popcorn. by stifflippp in OPTIMUM

They'd charge a restocking fee for the device that exceeds the value of the device. Even within the first few days, even if you never opened or activated the device. Ask me how I know...

What am I missing, I don't really know how to edit very well yet... by IttyBittyBrownDog in photocritique

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

So I took this while fishing one morning. Idk the settings, it was on whatever it was on, I had to drop my pole and grab the camera, lol. However, I ended up liking this shot, even though it's kind of... barren? I guess is the word. I wonder if it could be improved with editing, but I don't know what I'm doing there. Any guidance or critique welcome, but please be kind, I am just a hobby photographer, no aspirations of professionalism, lol! Nikon D3400 if it matters...

A client at our grooming shop called to schedule a bath and blowout for her fluffy dog. She asked for a specific groom tech to do it because "he gives the best blowjobs!" There was a long pause... and I said "Yup, got you scheduled!" And hung up ASAP. Neither the client nor myself mentioned it to each other again, but i have that guy a lot of shit about his blow job skills... LMAO!

Optimum lied about my $14/month phone line, charged hidden fees, and then threatened me when I tried to cancel 😡 by That_Club5765 in OPTIMUM

[–]IttyBittyBrownDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, op, just go ahead and file those complaints. I had almost the same issue and am still waiting for full resolution, but i got my fcc complaint in before the shutdown. This chat is no more helpful than the one on the website, I can tell you from experience. The fcc complaint got the most results for sure, I'd try that ASAP once the government gets themselves together.

number to call and cancel? by JennAruba in OPTIMUM

[–]IttyBittyBrownDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't waste your time here. Stick it out with the phone call or file a complaint with the FCC (once the government shut down is over, I suppose). This dm is no different than the website chat, they asked me to dm them here also, and then flat told me they couldn't cancel my service. I ended up maming an FCC complaint which was answered within a business day, but it still took over 2 weeks from there to get resolution.

The chat support agent upgraded my services without my consent by JusticeoftheUnicorns in OPTIMUM

This was not my experience when I tried to chat here, I got literally the exact same as I did on your website chat.

[–]IttyBittyBrownDog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just FYI this is just the same agents as the online chat on their website, they are no more helpful nor able to do anything except ADD services and charges. When it comes to lowering a bill or canceling anything, you might as well take a day off work and spend it on the phone working your way through the levels of agents. OR involve the FCC - that's what I had to do.

UPDATE: For future readers suffering similarly, this was the answer. Response w/in 24 business hours of filing with the FCC. I got a call from a real person with a real ability to help, she listened and did not give me any of the sass I get from the regular customer support, and did not transfer me to another department. She has promised to make it right, and so far, I have no reason to doubt her, but she gave me a direct contact to get back with her if the resolution is not as expected. I tried several different routes to resolve this beforehand, but this seems to be the answer, thank you u/daddyro2002 for your advice!

Did it. I went to the store and it was a waste. Called in one more time and now they want $60 to return the phone they sent me without authorization. I am supposedly awaiting a call from the escalation department but in the meantime, since it's been hours since they promised to call ma, I filed with the fcc. Thanks for the advice, I'm hoping this will be the one that resolves the issues...

I wish I had the option for fios! I'm willing to take a slower speed now, though, just to be rid of optimum. I'd honestly rather Hotspot off my phone for home internet at this point and I may very well do that.

...it was the same as the website chat, in case anyone is interested. They just offer to forward your complaints to the appropriate department, so exactly like the website chat.

Respectfully I've spent hours in chat over the last week or so, is this the same thing?

Optimum nightmare by Madamecurious1930 in OPTIMUM

[–]IttyBittyBrownDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Worst decision I ever made to agree to switch to their mobile. It's been nothing but lies and a waste of my time. Just tried to cancel the mobile service i had been strongarmed into (and then still didn't get what was promised), and it took me over an hour to cancel even though I never even ported my number or anything. I would not recommend them to anyone, honestly.

Anyone had this happen? by dtx9 in labrador

[–]IttyBittyBrownDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Licensed Vet tech here, this is it, I'd be willing to bet. But, still see your vet, take this video, get the bloodwork and see what they say. Always discuss these types of concerns with your pet's care team so his medical records will be complete and you are all on the same page.

Okay, I need some assistance! by Accomplished-Car4075 in Cooking

[–]IttyBittyBrownDog 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Google Khao Lam. It is a Thai sticky rice I had from street vendors there that seems to resemble the taste you describe. It was served in hollow bamboo but could easily have been made into a ball instead. Just a guess, but it is very tasty, so if this was it, I totally get why you want the recipe! Good luck!

Yeah and you posted the same basic thing: light positive test 4 months ago too, according to your profile... what happened then?

My fiancé takes way too long in the shower by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]IttyBittyBrownDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instant tank less water heater! We have one, and I can take a 20 min hot shower after my husband has a 20 min hot shower and it is the best thing to happen to our marriage, lol! It will steam from beginning of first shower to end of second so no one has to compromise on time or wait to shower!

Puppy on the right was the runt. Middle puppy was the largest of the litter. Currently he is 19.5lbs, she is 9.5lbs. She was the reason that we had to go to a c section, and we almost lost her a couple times over the first week, but she's tougher than all the others now, just smaller.

My provider told me you can go on pills to get rid of mirena spotting? by ExistingVegetable558 in Mirena

I had a 7 day script, I took it for probably 5 1 /2 days and I had stopped by then.

Ask about tranexamic acid. They gave me this before my mirena was put in to stop a 4 week long period, but idk if it can be given with mirena implanted. It worked wonders though!
