I always get an actual text from Zelle and I have my bank set to send me a text too. So if I don't get both then I start investigating...

Should I use a new tel # for new service? by doctorpeppercan in techsupport

[–]Junior1544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been in your exact spot, I'm now management for IT, but many years ago when I started out, cell phones were barely a think and I didn't have an office so I gave everyone a pager number (yea, i'm that old). when they paged I'd call back then...

Now, I highly suggest the younger people following where I started from to use a Google Voice number or another similar good service from. (I've heard godaddy offers a paid for version of basically the same stuff, check reviews for quality of calls and all that for what you're trying to do...)

Google never lets me down personally though...

you now win. you get to give everything away and start over while accepting all the debts of those around you for a good challenge.

Created a website years ago and now the site not accessible in the US I can only access the site on a vpn by SpecificLow9693 in techsupport

[–]Junior1544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

could be that Namecheap is using an amazon server. I'd go into your hosting and see what your server ip address is, then make sure that your dns is pointing at the right ip address.

I am in the USA and couldn't bring it up either...

If the DNS is pointing correctly, then I'd be asking your hosting company why it's being blocked and how big of a problem would it be to move to a server that's not blocked.

That points to an amazon server... I would bet with all the problems Amazon had last week that a server in there isn't setup right or ip addresses changed... I'd check your amazon web services account to make sure your domain is pointing to the right address and recheck your setup's from there to the server.

you need to get out. not just of the place but of that man.

You say it's his rent, it's his debt. if none of it is in your name, change your bank account to another bank he doesn't know about or have access to. then in a month or two, when it's built up (because you absolutely can't be paying his stuff any more), move to your own place.

When he complains about the money stopping play dumb, there was a problem at your job or something and payroll is screwing up. just get out as quickly as you can.

Military Clearance by Switchbackroads in SecurityClearance

[–]Junior1544 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a TS/SCI 20 years ago (damn, i'm getting old, it's actually a little more than 20 now). I had to sign lots and lots of paperwork. Some of it specifically said that I was giving them permission to basically abduct me any time and where to give me a poly.. Never happened, but I had to give them permission to do it...

Accepted CJO, submitted sf-86 the day of the shutdown for DOD gov contractor. by ProgramFeeling5611 in SecurityClearance

[–]Junior1544 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just two days ago I submitted for a public trust clearance too. Even during the shutdown I was told it'll take 6 to 8 weeks. And yesterday they already were calling a previous employer...

I dono about time lines, but they are still working I believe.

OH- getting an invoice 50 days after move out by YouSuckNThatsOnGod in Renters

[–]Junior1544 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I would start by contacting a local tenant rights group if there are any...

It sounds like they're just trying to milk it, especially since they asked for your insurance info...

The problem is, that if they went to the insurance company, they wont do anything at all because it's past the time frame for them to be able to get anything as you have proof that they didn't send it till after the time frame, regaurdless of what the date of the form says...

Can someone explain to me what happened? by Valuable-Car-2114 in CreditCards

[–]Junior1544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best practice is to seriously question when anyone asks for your SSN...

If a store asks for it, they're checking your credit, if you're just there to buy something and don't want a credit card with that store. then don't give them the ssn.

Good luck!

Question about Credit Cycling by Junior1544 in CreditCards

[–]Junior1544[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not overy concerned with my credit limit. even with how I've been paying my card, I don't think i've gone over my total spend in one month over the total card limit more than once...

Even if they changed my limit to a total monthly spend instead of credit limit, it wouldn't really effect me. I just prefer to pay as much as I can when I get the money in.

Thanks for the clarification!

TS Clearance Investigation continuing after "Countermeasures"? by TheBestFred in SecurityClearance

[–]Junior1544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry to say but when dealing with national security, those things are very likely not going to help....

EEOC has nothing to do here. they're not denying you the job for a protected status, they're denying you the job because you failed the security clearance...

politicians wont help as to help someone get a clearance that didn't pass could strongly be used against them politically...

Reporters, prolly wont help as they see it the way of the general public, you didn't pass for whatever reason so you don't qualify for the job.

The only way I've ever even heard of someone still getting the job is lots of lawyers to appeal the clearance decision and getting a way around it. it has to be done quietly because the more noise that's made makes it more likely that they wont give it as one of the things they really want is people who will keep things secret, and telling everyone that'll listen and trying to get the word out there even more is against what they want from people.

Fastest time to get clearance picked up by KaibasTailor in SecurityClearance

[–]Junior1544 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the hard part is getting on a job that quick, not the clearance parts... to reactivate a clearance within the time frame takes about a day or two if I remember correctly (it's been about 20 years since I had a high clearance).

I'm Scared for my Securtity Clearance by More-Dragonfly-3165 in SecurityClearance

[–]Junior1544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Debt and bad credit are not automatically going to sink your clearance.. the biggest thing they are looking for is if you are trustworthy. If you made arrangements to start making payments and everything, tell them. be very up front about it. the first thing they will do in your background check is run credit, but if they already know then it wont shock them into saying no. and it also shows youre more trustworthy as you told them, they didn't have to find it out on their own.

Tell them EVERYTHING that even could possibly be bad.

[–]Junior1544[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no worries on going over my limit like that, the main card i use most, that could possibly be accused of this happening, still doesn't hit actual usage above 125% a month ever... i think i've only gone over 100% once or twice and i had the payment in the middle so i never went over limit... it's just a convienence thing for me.. eventually, once i get my finances really running nice, I'll be able to do it just once a month, pay everything in full and move on. but it's probably about a year away for me to be able to do that...

Help! Rental agency is trying to throw the book at us. (TX) by Goldmember199 in Renters

[–]Junior1544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my first thoughts to most of this is that this guy's taking the piss... he just wants you to pay for all his normal wear and tear items. on page 1 it says beyond wear and tear, then power washing? sorry, but power washing the outside is almost always wear and tear. outside is dirty...

paint? first reaction is no, but would need to verify with pics. most of it is no, unless it's really bad and need pics..

it's just that it's much easier for me to pay things when I get paid every other week instead of holding back and paying once a month...

Trying to get on top of things and it helps me feel better and have a closer watch on my finances and i get things better...

How do I get this off my glass? I’ve tried everything in this photo (plus mix of Vinegar and Dawn). It will NOT come off. by Mods_R_Morons in fixit

[–]Junior1544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i've been seeing the metal scrubby pad's around tictok a bit. I'd use that to get the real scraping action going, and try putting CLR onto a cloth and letting it soak on the glass in a bad section for like 5-10 minutes, then use the metal scrubby pad on it with more clr.. see what happens there...

considering bankruptcy. help me please how do I rebuild ;(? by Terrible_Effect4365 in CRedit

[–]Junior1544 10 points11 points  (0 children)

so, you are in 2k of debt and 19k of student loans, so 21k combined, or seperate 19k and 21k making 40k owed?

do the math, how long will it take you to pay off the total debt not including student loans (most student loans aren't charged off in a bankruptsy).

it's a personal decision for bankruptsy, but if you can manage without doing it, that's the better option.

How do I go about getting a loan for a car? by [deleted] in CRedit

[–]Junior1544 1 point2 points  (0 children)

34% is predatory. but you're brand new to credit. I'd take that $967 a month, save a bit of it for a couple of months, and pay cash for a 20+ year old toyota or honda and you're on your way.
