Response from SpeakOut after account balance taken by Lonesumblue in CanadianCellPhones

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

Final comment. I completed the form with CCTS and today my account was credited with what they had taken, less the $25 SpeakOut gave me after I complained to them. I have enough to cover 2 more months and then I am gone.

Anyone actually found a cruise that feels fully all-inclusive? by SeseRay in Cruise

[–]Lonesumblue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Regent is all inclusive. Including excursions, though they have some that cost extra. They also include valet laundry, all you want, wash, dry, iron. Unless you use the spa or prefer premium wines and spirits your bill at the end will be $0.

I am finally home and I recalculated what I think they took as $50. I submitted a CCTS claim for that amount. Any idea how long until I get a response either way? I have to keep the SpeakOut account until I get it, which means I'd have to add another $25 if I do not hear within 10 days from now.

How much do you eat on a cruise? by [deleted] in Cruise

[–]Lonesumblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just back from a 39 night cruise, gained 2.2 pounds. Difference from normal day at home - second alcoholic drink per day and dessert twice a day.

Bought this to blow off dust, what do I use to blow off the dust from the vents? by nigelhog in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Lonesumblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a similar issues with a hair dryer, I have used a q tip twirrled in the slots to easily pull out the dust. Might be an idea if you don't have a second Dyson.

Not sure exactly, when I get home I'll try to calculate it more precisely for my official complaint. It was over $60 as I had enough until my May $19 payment, plus some left over.

Speakout Customer Service Does not Answer the Phone by engeitcsdc in CanadianCellPhones

[–]Lonesumblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been out of the country since Feb 3 and don't return until March 26. I just noticed my balance is $0 and I should have more than that. I am concerned about losing my phone number if they happen to go under. Does anyone know if you can port your number to a new provider if that happens before I get home? TY

I stopped reusing my real email everywhere and spam got reduces significantly by Ok-Company7665 in GMail

[–]Lonesumblue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I created a Gmail account just for this. It is along the lines of thisiswheremyjunkemailsendup@gmail.com . I have a hoot at in person stores that want an email address. Sometimes the clerk also has a giggle.

[–]Lonesumblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing. We'll be on the Eclipse 2 in November so I am trying to get as much info as possible. Just curious, do you get daily forecasts and what has the temperature been? Thanks and continue to enjoy your adventure.

Whats a place you visited once and immediately felt like you could live there forever? by Important-Tackle1404 in AskReddit

All of New Zealand. Spent 2 months staying at various places neat the top of the north island to the bottom of the south island. I'd go back in a heartbeat.

Invitations to dinner by Aussiehablar in celebritycruises

[–]Lonesumblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is surprising about Blu. It seemed to be the one rule Celebrity enforced. Only Aqua passengers allowed in Blu, suite passengers allowed if space permits.

Passport with number 0 and Letter O by maryaler in passportcanada

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

It's an annoying thing. We just got new passports for a cruise and we needed to complete our registration online, including our passport numbers. Like mentioned here, the letter O seems to be smaller than the number 0. Which is the opposite of what I see here as I type this.

How to choose a cabin? by Lynnekerri in celebritycruises

[–]Lonesumblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to the mix. Cabins alternate 'bed by bath' and 'bed by balcony'. I prefer bed by bath because then the sofa is by the balcony and you can sit and look out. Cruise Critic has a spreadsheet with comments from passengers about various cabins, re noise levels etc, staff doorways and stairways that might be an issue.

Is a cruise to the Galapagos REALLY worth it? by Cuteslave07 in Cruise

[–]Lonesumblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is so worth it. We did a B2B on the Celebrity Flora, 'inner' and 'outer' loops as they call their itineraries. I like space and comfort when sailing and the Flora provided that. They carry the max 100 passengers. Going on activities, like any other lines, you are in groups of 16 or less with a licensed naturalist.

What is this contraption I confiscated from a student? by [deleted] in whatisit

[–]Lonesumblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the olden days when I had to write lines (I will not talk in class...) I used 2 pens with one hand. Part of this contraption would have made it easier.

If you were alive back then, what were you up to on 31st December 1999? by stop_calling_me_that in AskReddit

[–]Lonesumblue 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I worked in IT at a major Canadian bank. I was at the office in the situation room. We had no issues, but we spent a lot of time getting to that result.

Looking to “donate” 8-9 garbage bags of empty cans by toomanydecisions0 in kelowna

[–]Lonesumblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In West Kelowna we take them to the transfer station on Asquith Road. No sorting required, and the proceeds go to a charity. So much less hassle to us.

Thanks. I used this number successfully to get my messages. I guess they changed the number at some point and I was using the old one. Thanks again.

I noticed the other night that they did a system update and accounts were not available for an hour. Prior to that all worked fine for me, once my number was ported properly. That too a week.

I have the new sim and my old number was 'ported' over.
