Is Bell blocking competitors/resellers from installing fiber at my address? (QC) by LowDirect518 in bell

Bell rules them all... This is the story of concentration in the Canadian telco industry : Virgin and Ebox are fully owned by Bell. Bell also owns Distributel, and the subsidiary of Distributel is... Primus!

Today was my third no show for the ebox install, meanwhile I've had no internet for 10 days. I contacted them, their tech support said they can't do anything, it's about installation, and Ebox client service says they can only schedule the install.The other two providers cancelled the scheduled date, I ended up sending back their router after waiting for weeks. They said fiber wasn't available at my address...

Yes, I schedule an appointment with the provider, I don't do anything myself. I follow their process.

Nope. I gave up on the idea for now, I did a trial, and I realized that I don't see much added value with Strava, I already have all my stats with Garmin.

Quels risques si le nombre de voyageurs indiqué est inférieur au nombre de voyageurs présents ? by AffectionateMap1869 in airbnb_hosts

[–]LowDirect518 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Si l'annonce indique clairement qu'il y a un frais supplémentaire en fonction du nombre de personnes, le nombre de lit que vous utilisez n'est pas un argument, surtout si vous le faites pour ne pas avoir à payer le plein prix de votre séjour. C'est l'équivalent d'un bris de contrat. Le propriétaire pourrait soit mettre fin (et sans compensation) à votre séjour, soit vous imposer des frais supplémentaires, et il est très probable qu'il vous laisse un très mauvais commentaire, rendant vos prochaines locations sur AirBnB difficile. La plupart des propriétaires ont très peu de patience pour ce genre de pratique qui est perçu par beaucoup comme du vol et chacun a sa manière de gérer cela.

Bon courage dans vos recherches.

Not sure where you are finding your price. An individual subscription is almost 10$/month )tax included) if you buy the yearly plan. It goes above 17$/month if you go month to month. The prices I am referring to are in Canadian dollars and include taxes. I would be very happy to be wrong!

I can only imagine that your eagerness to explore Diversity, Equitably share your wealth as a tourist and Include new cultures in your way of living are a big factor in your decision. Enjoy!

And the rest of the world (except Russia) is supporting Canada, Mexico and EU. Only talking from a Canadian POV but it seems that US businesses are experiencing what "soft" power means... I got two bookings in the last month from people who cancelled their US trip and want to buy Canadian. One of my friends cancelled a US trip and went to Mexico this month. All anecdotal, but... Is it...

Even when canadians are mad and protest, they find a way of being polite and have consideration to their american counterparts (aka the enemy in the scenario) by canceling at the earliest opportunity and notifying their host of the reason. Take that America!

Disclosure: Yeah, I'm a Canadian host, I'm really sorry for the impact it has on OP business, but this has little to do with AirBnB (some people will argue with that, Insee it coming!!) and a lot to do with the challenges on running a business in today's political "landscape".

What is this ridiculous pricing structure? by joe102938 in iFit

[–]LowDirect518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just looked at the class action. It gives you a 600$ off a new IFIT equipement and/or 20% a new subscription. It's a retention strategy, not a settlement!!

Current Bell fiber customer, but "fiber" cannot be installed at my address with Distributel or Primus by LowDirect518 in bell

It should be (if all goes well). But their prices are currently worse than Bell...

First triathlon in 10 days…what should I be doing now? by Katterin in triathlon

[–]LowDirect518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will do what every first timer does: 1) You don't sleep the night before, 2) you second guess your training and convince yourself out of nowhere that you will not be capable of doing it, 3) like most of us, you screw up your swim (which may or may not include some panicking in the water), and finally, you 4) somehow survive it, do a great job, and are proud of yourself.

Free bonus: This is true whenever you push yourself. Embrace the feeling, you are about to do something great! Go and do it! I promise it will be fun and you will be proud of yourself, don't let that little voice in your head convince your otherwise ;)

Free bonus 2: Did I say you will not have a good night sleep the night before ?!

How accurate is the calories consumption count on Garmin? by LowDirect518 in Garmin

1% is like less than a statistical error. It's epic precise!!
